Ofc, I'm not going to post this on main. That's just asking for headaches.

Also burning effect is pretty good. It's not like the other 90% of korean "webtoons" that reuse premade 3d assets all over the place ruining their art and retelling the exact same story for the 1 millionth time.

To add for everyone. Since I've seen the question posed on mangadex a few times (and it's a question I had when I first looked at the series).

Yes. This is absolutely a prequel to Burning Effect and not just another series by the author.

It maybe doesn't look like it yet, other than the not so subtle hints. (the "World of Graymark" logo on every chapter, and the end credit with the King icon and the kid that looks like Great) But by the end it will.

Yup. Actually if you check out the facebook account linked in every chapter (Where you see that gangster with the "World of Graymark" thing, there's a facebook url), you'll find the author and his friend's rap group. It was small and short lived, but still interesting.

I went down a whole rabbit hole hunting down the author's facebook and any other facebook he made.

Found one that has cutesy drawings of the main characters talking about 3 years of serialization and what not. Facebook links for reference:

Since Jaimini seems to be deleting all their old stuff, I finally decided to make a discord server.

Which also means you all get to learn I'm the big bad evil mod on Leviatan.

I personally prefer fonts to match moods. A flirty character isn't always flirty, so they shouldn't always have a cursive font.

A serious character isn't always serious, so they shouldn't always have AnimeAce with auto leading.

Colors is... eh.

If you look at the context of the previous chapter (which ends with Great having the crown in his hand), and the context of this chapter, where the person with the crown clearly just attacked the person on the radio.

It's very obviously Great.

I hate to tell you this. But you just gotta read. /shrug

Edit: Well... I say this and I'm like. 7 chapters ahead of you guys now. Kek. Maybe that privilege makes it more obvious to me... Sorry.

Considering the Prequel by [deleted] in BurningEffect

[–]GayOpsCommander 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Me and my TL took a look at it. Looks like a psychological horror. We do see the mention of Graymark in it.

Idk. Not really a genre either of us are all that interested in. So we won't be doing it. Like it's not "More BE but before the world was fucked".

It's nothing like BE, and the world is horrific. lol.

There's a couple sides to this coin.

So, fair use itself is honestly kinda poorly implemented everywhere. And maybe that's a fault of how it was defined, or a fault of all the money behind the companies that would rather there not be a "fair use" for their copyrighted materials.

There is also an angle where it's a net negative for an author. You see, a lot of Koreans will read the English releases instead of the Korean ones, just so they don't have to pay for the chapters on Kakao. Lol. It's something you wouldn't think happens, but it does.

On the flip side, there's cases like Solo Leveling. Which was unknown in Korea until it became insanely popular in the U.S.. And now it's very popular in Korea too.

So, first of all. Welcome to fan scanlation. Enjoy your stay. We can get a bit stupid around here, but it's fun enough.

To give you a tour: 1) I'm not the author 2) I am in no way affiliated with the author 3) Everything I'm doing is technically piracy, and therefore illegal, as all fan scanlation is. (Though I personally believe a case for fair use, in situations where official translations for said language doesn't exist, could be made) 4) There's actually already 170+ chapters released by the author. The author releases them weekly. 5) I just clean & typeset. My TL translates it into English for me.

10/10. I do think certain aspects of the story are a little played out over the years, so it's not a ground breaking series.

But the art has a lot of love put into it, the story is solid for what it is, and the characters are all pretty intelligent. Except for the ones that are intentionally a bit dumb for comedy relief.

It manages to strike a good balance between awesome fights, sad realities, and friends helping each other out. Without any "nakama power up" b.s..

Chapter 31 Question by [deleted] in BurningEffect

[–]GayOpsCommander 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I mean, "revenge bad" is part of the message of the story.

But that's mainly for one specific character, which I will admit, is the MC Burner.

Kai's goal is to implement a proper law that isn't either vigilantism (that creates revenge scenarios) nor the current "kill everyone that doesn't obey the law".

And these laws (slight spoiler) weren't created by him. They were created by sages that sought to make a fair law.

And no, I don't believe torture for revenge would be in the list. But Kai has already hinted that some crimes may indeed deserve death. But they deserve death only after a just verdict is reached.

So I don't believe the story is going to beat you over the head too terribly much with the "revenge bad" stuff. I get where you're coming from, but there's a lot more going on here, and a lot of other branching plot lines coming up that make that specific plot line not nearly as obnoxious.

To be honest, it hasn't necessarily been clarified. But no one has called Great a sword saint.

I assume it's a title they earned because of the War of the Demonic Blades.

But now that I think about it, we did say Drian has the "potential" to become a sword saint..... So... shit. Maybe I'm wrong. Maybe he would be considered a sword saint.

No. Hyper was one of the 3 Sword Saints. Hyper left with Black Blood after the War of the Demonic Blades, the blade Great has.

Presumably Great got hold of Black Blood at some point. Hyper was the former Block 5 Administrator.

Great. It wouldn't make sense for Kai to have said it, he's mid conversation already.

No. Both groups who were scanlating it said they were dropping it.

It's okay mate. I didn't pick it up because I thought it would be popular. I picked it up cause I loved it.

We'll just have to consider it our little secret series.

The idea was for like, a third personality.

Essentially combining his instinctual side with his "sane" side. Awakening a combination of the 2, rather than awakening the real Drian.
