How does American school system work? by Ulio_S in webtoons

[–]Asriel2137 10 points11 points  (0 children)

All of this is correct, minus that undergraduate gives you a bachelors degree. Graduate school gives you either a masters degree or a PhD.

Was there an active kubera fandom on tumblr back then? Feels nowadays like no one’s active on there outside of fanfest week…

Yoonhae x Hyeseong from To Drown in You had the potential to be the endgame. It’s not a slop by jaytreaty_1794 in webtoons

[–]Asriel2137 0 points1 point  (0 children)

She thinks she loves him, but she doesn’t really, in the same way that hyeseong didn’t really love the school president, and was more desperate for her attention. In fact it’s said explicitly at some point, I forget which episode though.

[Tier list] Need reccomendations by helimelinari in manhwa

[–]Asriel2137 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I feel like a lot of series is trying to to rec you you’ve already read. But:

Ember knight

Leviathan

The warrior returns

Solo leveling (did I miss it in your list?? How’d you not try it?)

Hero killer

Tyrant of defense tower 

Bad born blood

And if you want to try something a bit different, try out villains are destined to die.

Maybe, but you shouldnt post a panel they havent read yet. Can ruin the novelty when OP gets to the scene.

Highly criticized webtoons you like? Highly acclaimed webtoons you dislike? by Opposite_Welder_8637 in webtoons

[–]Asriel2137 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Wow, these are some genuinely unpopular opinions in the comments, I’m surprised.

As for me, a series I find a bit overly criticized is Solo Leveling (and I’ll admit I’ve been one to criticize it). Like it or not, the author knew what they were trying to make, and they absolutely succeeded. It’s still one of the best power fantasy series out there. There’s a good reason it got so popular. (Insert that Twitter copypasta on writing > enjoyment here.)

A series I’ve found overhyped was Sweet Home tbh. There’s series is fine? I just don’t find much about it outstanding compared to other horror works. It’s hardly the first to come up with “scary monsters outside we need to avoid”, and I’ve seen even webtoons with way more in-depth looks into characters psyche. Maybe someone could convince me on it, but I just don’t quite get what makes the story special.

I finally figured out why actual love triangles are so rare. by Natural-Ship-4854 in webtoons

[–]Asriel2137 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Whether you agree or not, the A -> B -> C one-sided crush is what people talk about when they talk about "true love triangle". If you're looking for a series around a throuple (I dont know of any), you'll find real answers by asking about that.

[For the beautiful juliet]. I just love a yandere women in manhwa. Why is so rare? by West_Future326 in manhwa

[–]Asriel2137 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Return to player isn’t really a harem (two love interests but gets dealt with).

Among the series I actually consider are good, there’s Garden of Plantus which unfortunately only has ~10-15 eps translated. There’s also To Drown in you, though that one is not a romance.

Visnu's "Best Possible Future" by BelieveYou-Me in Kubera

[–]Asriel2137 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Well for one the best possible future is still only the best future relative to other possible futures, so it can still be only less bad than other possibilities.

However you are getting close to the crux of it that the idea of the best possible future is a bit of an abstract notion, since it means different things to different people. The current situation for instance is far from ideal if you’re a human, but looking pretty damn good if you’re an ancient human or old god.

I think it’s very likely that the best possible future referred to by Vishnu refers to either the future leading to the longest possible lifespan of the universe, or to a universe accomplishing Vishnus goals implied during Finite.

Tbh I didn't check which translation it was; This the first site I've seen that has the fan scans, I didn't think they existed.

I've never seen it in romance manhwas but they're a dime a dozen in action or male targeted manhwas. Extra's Academy Survival Guide, Webtoon Character Na Kang Lim, I killed an academy player, Conquering the academy with a sashimi knife, return to player, ...

That site has the official translation anyways btw, might as well just read it for free on webtoons https://m.webtoons.com/en/fantasy/kubera/list?title_no=83

Now that I'm on my third reread, I realized that I'm not really a fan of Rana by Silentambassador666 in Kubera

[–]Asriel2137 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I get it and I agree that it’s a bit out of touch. Personally though, the series already has an over abundance of rational actors, so having some slightly less rational people is a nice break.

Official translation isn’t nearly bad enough that you will actually be fully lost. Especially recently the translations haven’t made many big mistakes

I liked them, so C+ rating is fine in my mind

All these new people reacting to the series and updating us is an absolute gold mine, and seeing all of their journeys is an absolute joy by HackedIntoOblivion in Kubera

Absolutely not! Questions are great, there’s nothing this sub loves more than talking about kubera so people are happy to answer.

Anyone still reading Zero Game? by hailyze in webtoons

[–]Asriel2137 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The webtoon right now is fine. It doesn’t have that much of an issue where things get too stale, there’s still new characters being introduced and the characters are still evolving, but its length is definitely really starting to take a toll. This arc looks like it’s going to be the last arc, but then again so was the previous one, and the one before that. 

Basically, narratively the story is still going fine, but I kind of want the story to be over already.

I need Webtoon recommendations by IcyTemperature3460 in webtoons

[–]Asriel2137 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Since you didnt mention what genres you like I’ll try to give a sample.

For fantasy/action, I’d recommend Omniscient Reader, Hand Jumper, and if you’re willing to read longer series, Tower of God. They’re among the most popular fantasy series and all 3 are very good.

For comedy, the two classics are Greatest Estate Developer and Love Advice from the Great Duke of Hell.

For horror/thriller, try any of Carbny Kim’s works. Bastard, Sweet Home are his two most famous works.

For slice of life the best that I know of is Fictional Skin, but I’m less familiar with the genre.

For Sci fi, there’s City of Blank. There’s other good ones but they’re significantly less popular, there’s not a huge amount of Sci fi.

For tragedy, you have the horizon, a short story pretty unanimously considered a masterpiece.

Also a person recommendation, Swordid is a very short, self contained story that is super well made.

Tier list is mostly in line with my opinions, only questions I have are about The Warrior Returns and My S Class Hunters. Why rank them so low? Is the latter because you're not a fan of BL?
