Any ACTUALLY GOOD Action/Thriller Manhwa suggestions?

Well I don’t have any ideas about female leads(which is painful bc women are so slay)but I do think trash of the counts family is a good world building story if you haven’t read it! There might not be be fight scenes left and right but the world building is fun and the schemes + character interactions make it quite enjoyable. Also it’s pretty funny that the mc struggles to find that slacker life. I haven’t caught up to recent novel chapters yet though so I hope I’m not overly glazing it lol(๑•ㅂ•)و✧

Fog Land. It's not a system/dungeon manhwa but it has action and mystery. It's about a science teacher who was invited to teach prisoners but gets trapped in the world's largest and most dangerous prison after a riot tooks place during the class. He soon sees that it's not a normal prison and prisoners aren't normal. The only way to get out is by becoming the supreme leader. It doesn't have romance and has two male protagonists. It's so unique and interesting imo

This is an old one, but ever tried XXX-holic?
Or tokyo pet shop of horrors.
They're really good mangas. I would get it if you didn't find the style appealing though.

For Chinese novels this is like wayyy old news but Douluo Dalu is super decent, BL - I have medicine (super slow burn, romance isn't really all that relevant. The translations got axed though so I guess only MTL available unless you can read chinese).

The Evil Ring!! All of the characters are amazing and the plot is so entertaining too

I will definitely try it out!! It sounds awesome and I always love finding entirely new world building and roles, thank you!!

I will try it out! I like the sound of “Trash” in titles heheh…I’ll let you know my opinion after, haha! There’s so many I have yet to catch up on recent novel chapters too… And don’t worry about female leads! I’m happy you even had a suggestion for me in the first place, I’ll find an amazing female protagonist soon!!

I’ve definitely heard of Tokyo Pet Shop of horrors a while ago, I completely forgot about it! Guess it’s come back to me with you as my messenger, seems like I have to read it! And no, I have never tried XXX-holic! Intriguing title, I’m gonna have to check it out! And Chinese novels? Oooh that piques my interest!! I will have to try all of these! Thank you so much for these suggestions, I’m super stoked! :D

Omg! I saw that one a different website just last weekend! I will definitely check it out, I was a little scared to read it since I was a bit worried it would be displeasing, but hearing it from you, I shall! Thank you!

Did you read "Illusion Hunter from Another World"? Alien trying to escape getting overworked by possessing a human, has good bromance & the female side characters are also amazing!
https://www.mangago.me/read-manga/the_delusional_hunter_in_another/

I also enjoy "For My Own Good" MC travels back in time to save the world - his younger version ends up as his lil bro & he has a complicated relationship with his adoptive father who's no longer his adoptive father, he also ends up teaching a bunch of high schoolers
https://www.mangago.me/read-manga/i_ll_retire_after_saving_the_world/

Also "11th School trip" ! it's so good and it is a real Slowburn Action/Thriller BL - timeloop horror schooltrip where MC tries to protect the ML cause he seems to be the reason for each reset, and they have a nice group of friends!

You might also enjoy "Windbreaker" since you enjoy bromance its a manga tho not a webtoon - school delinquents protecting a town, each arc & message it delievers is beautiful
https://www.mangago.me/read-manga/windbreaker/

"Dungeons and Crayons" has a child female MC also pretty good - MC awakens as an S-Class and her first mission is to choose a reliable Guardian, who ends up being a Guilde Leader

You should try "Debut or Die" - same author as Ghost Story Gotta Work what else do I have to say here?
https://www.mangago.me/read-manga/debut_or_die/

Also since you dont mind novels try How to Survive as the Second Son of a Mage Family! or Children of the Holy Emperor (heared good things about them havent read them myself yet)

You should definitely try Killer Peter. It's got excessive fanservice but you get both hot men (with nipples!!) and hot women, no romance or bromance (imo but you're free to ship charas) but the plot itself is so so so good.

Eternally Regressing Knight is also a hot recommendation if you don't mind fantasy. There's limited world building bc it heavily focuses on the main character himself but it's not boring at all. You'll love the mc by the end, trust. No romance, tons of bromance, many women are interested in him too (so he basically has a whole co-ed harem lmao), nevertheless only mc's sword gets his love and dedication on a side note: men here have nipples too!!

Tokyo Aliens is frigging awesome as well. The mcs are highkey in love with each other, all but confirmed gay and dating lmao. It's a manga but you'll probably enjoy it

np you're welcome (づ￣ ³￣)づ

ive read almost all of your suggestions, and I really love https://www.novelupdates.com/series/simulated-crime-this-criminal-doesnt-seem-to-be-acting/ !! its a CH novel, not a manhwa/manhua, but for a female MC action/thriller it had me immersed i can’t lie. if you liked GDCG, i think you might like this onee hehe :). for action manhwa (also with female MCs), id recommend https://www.mangago.me/read-manga/survive_romance/ and https://www.mangago.me/read-manga/night_of_shadows/ both of which are also peakk. they both give off similar vibes to ORV

ooh wait let me add https://www.mangago.me/read-manga/white_blood/ before i forget. the art, story, action, and FEMC are PEAKK and probably the best to recommend that fits closely with your tastes

OMG!!! Thank you so much for these lovely suggestions and even the website?! Ugh, you’re amazing!! I’m so excited to try them out!! Female MCs?! Hehe, sign me UP! AND similar vibes to ORV?! God, you’re a constellation straight from the system! Can’t wait, tysm again!!!

AHHH WHITE/UNHOLY BLOOD! It’s been YEARS since I’ve read it! I never actually finished it since I drifted away from Webtoon so long ago… THANK YOU FOR REMINDING ME! Will definitely re-read, I loved the art style and Female Protagonist SO MUCH based on my memories :D

Haha, “With nipples!!” Made me crack up!!! But, YES! I’ll take that AMAZINGGG FANSERVICE THAT’S ACTUALLY SERVING THE FANS , def gotta check that out, I heard “hot women” AND “good plot” and I’m sat already.!!
OF COURSE I don’t mind fantasy at all!!! Give me give me GIVE ME escapes from reality, P-LEASEEEE! And GIVE ME that bromance, I love me harems like this one hehehe… Will keep in mind the nipples, yes, yes.

WOAH!!! WOW! YOU’RE FEEDING ME A WHOLE FEAST HERE! Just put each and every one in my “want to read” list, will ABSOLUTELY check them OUT. They all sound so flippin’ amazing, I’m so happy you commented down here!! (Reddit and TikTok have been huge gambles on what’s good or not )
OH WINDBREAKER! Gosh… I watched the anime awhile back but I completely forgot about it! I gotta catch up, I adored the protagonist but then got too busy and drifted away..!!! Thank you for reminding me, I actually do need to catch up, hell, I’ll just reread the darn thing!
And DEBUT OR DIE! SHOOT! I remember hearing that a few years back and I just KEEP FORGETTING TO READ IT! Will definitely do so now!! But CAN’T BELIEVE IT’S THE SAME AUTHOR AS GSGW!? I forget to do my research sometimes… smh…
Will check each and every single one out! Your summaries of them were absolutely enough to tempt me into clicking that search bar! Thank you so much!!~

Lmao I just had to mention the nips bc for manhwas targeted at the male demographic (largely), drawing nipples means SOMETHING. Saying this cuz you'll very rarely see nips being drawn on male characters outside the bl genre

No worries, since you mentioned GDGS, they're somewhat similar except it's more sort of folklore fantasy horror.
Hope you enjoy.
If you read/understand Chinese as well I have a pretty good app to suggest for text to speech from txt files for novels.

Youre welcome! I had to stop my self from recommending more and more after I already wrote a whole essay of recs lmao Enjoy reading hope you like these stories as much as I did ヾ(❀╹◡╹)ﾉ~
