I recall when I was reading this manhwa I couldn't do it without the OST from MazM's Jekyll&Hyde and Pechka running inside my head.
I don't want to be disappointed by this webtooon, it's one of the coolest non-BL's I've been reading. I'm at chapter 100 and it's like wanting to start becoming generic. ;~;
Don’t worry! It’s still interesting on the latest chapter as well (=・ω・=)
im on the latest chapter and it's still the webtoon i get most excited about when an update happens
All webtoons or mangas have a slow arc or two, this one has a bit of a repetitive pattern but it is unavoidable with jiwoo (mc) being weak at the start, it is still fun and exciting action with dope art
Phew! I gave it a chance, now I'm at chapter 120, and I'm still fancying it.
I hate stories with forced crushes, exagerated manly and womanly behaviours and Vegeta-like personalities, like Omniscient Reader's Viewpoint.
I thought only Japanese manga could be generic, now I'm affraid I read any Korean non-BL manga and it's about a socially inept freak who moves to a fantasy world where he will be a super powerful hero and have a bunch of women before his feet and blablablabla cliché cliché and all that jazz.
It's not tho? If anything, ORV apart breaks apart a lot of the cliches you mentioned lol.
You are clearly describing Solo Levelling. I think you're mistaking it for ORV.
u cant tell me u actually tried reading this manhwa cuz calling dokja being generic???? pftttttt man out here doing the most unpredictable new shit and u call tht being generic
Commenting before reading LOL
Solo Leveling has no business in this. He didn't have tons of women at his feet. What's the hate for??!?!?
I meant the super powerful hero that no one can beat part lol. Why are you thinking it was hate? Can't handle an opinion?
Ah, now I understand. Forgive me, people just like to compare the two a lot and I don't even see why they should do that.
A little spoiler: no romantic relationships occur! (Besides a side one but they break up at the end I think). There is lots of love, but it’s familial love and no pining unless you really want to read things that way. Then just don’t.
None of the women will ever be visibly head over heels blushing unless you count Uriel but it’s literally just a omg-its-my-favourite-streamer-blorbos thing. To balance it out, most constellations and the other archangel find him annoying.
Kim Dokja is definitely overpowered but not in the one-epic-slice-and-you-die way like most other op protags (YJH is there for that) but like future knowledge kinda thing. He’s actually really pathetic but a smug lucky squid which infuriates most of the constellations.
Plus, you can literally never be so overpowered without some conditions due to probability! It really helps level out the field sometimes.
plus plus ORV is very very meta and I don’t know what you mean by it being the same as every other story because it has cool unique bits like ‘disconnected film theory’ and I think ‘squared circle’ and is referred to a couple times in the novel so it’s not just a one-time thing!
So if you’d just give ORV another chance, I’m sure you’ll love it too!
BwaT is the absolute king of the "why shall this not happen to me?" genre.
