​@@mebutinglasses9152it's a story about a stalker and murderer bro with no so happy ending

[@FoxTheTeaSipper]

​@@mebutinglasses9152 Killing Stalking delves deep into themes of unhealthy attachment, stockholm syndrome, abuse, trauma responses and abusive relationships. There are many graphic scenes, especially of murder and there were moments where I genuinely put my phone down because I dreaded seeing a character's reaction to something. It creates an uneasy feeling as you read it. Personally I myself am not too sensitive to the visuals and topics, but there are many disgusting themes and scenes. I wouldn't recommend it due to that, but I also just didn't like characterisation of a certain very important character in the last 15 or so chapters(?) which made it an unsatisfying experience for me.

Fun fact, Omniscient Reader is not written by one person, but two! It was written by a married couple who decided to write this story one day, and I got to say, they planned out everything before the story even started. Any plotholes are filled in towards the end, and it is one of the most mind twisting, heart warming, and brilliant works of fiction I have read. Edit: Do not read the comments cause it honestly became a dumpster fire, thanks to people being quite insensitive and illiterate.

I have some GREAT recommendations for you if you ever do a part 2! (You better) As an avid reader of the historical romance subgenre of manhwa I'd like to introduce you to some of the best and most memorable ones I've read so far. (I apologize beforehand for the upcoming wall of text.) - "Roxana/The way to save the female lead's older brother" is the best out there when it comes to 'true' villainess stories. It has gorgeous art, super interesting characters and there's no other manhwa out there like this one. - "Beware the Villainess" is a hilarious take on the 'I became a villainess but I want to be good' trope, and has one of the most adorable ML (Male Leads) of all the ones I've read. - "Heaven Official's Blessing" is a must read now that you're a BL channel. The story and characters have so much depth and chemistry, and the art is simply DELICIOUS. There's a great anime adaptation in the middle of it's second season right now that I'd also strongly recommend! - "Your Throne" is not really a romance but more of a dark fantasy with mysteries, tragedy, politics and sceming. - "The Remarried Empress". The Empress leaves her trashy cheating husband and finds a better life for herself with the King of a neighboring country. What else do you need? - "Purple Hyacinth" is a crime mystery where our hero needs to team up with the villain to try and solve a case bigger than the both of them. Probably one of the greatest on it's genre. - "I Raised My Fiancé with Money" is about a filty rich girlboss who got cheated on and decides to date the duke with severe social anxiety to try and get her engagement with the cheater broken. The ML is the most precious person ever and it's really sweet so far. - "The King and Me" is another BL because why not! Here our ML gets emotionally attached to a living stone statue who saved his life, and then gets magically teleported back in time where he tries to find out the truth behind who or what the stone statue was. I could go on, but I feel like I've already written too much so I'll just leave this here and hope that you or someone else gets inpired to check any of these out. Byee

ORV was amazing. I was happy that it ended that way but also sad that it ended because it was SO GOOD. A lot of things were foreshadowed wayyyy early on and it was done in such a subtle way so when you get to the ending, nothing felt forced and it was more so a feeling of holy shit everything make so much sense now. At the start it may seem like a generic isekai but as you progress in the story it goes so much deeper and by the end i was bawling my eyes out.

ngl I’ve been avoiding this video for a hot minute. Decided to check it out, got a lot of laughs, and a list of new stories to read. I wanted to see if the two of the manhwa I really love were here, and was so happy to see they are. I read Blood Bank and Bastard as they were being released in 2016 (Yuri on Ice Wednesdays, Bastard Thursdays, and Blood Bank Fridays were the best weeks of high school). Both stories are incredibly intense, but have really fantastic stories. I didn’t read Sweet Home once Bastard ended, but knowing it before the live action came out made me a little happy. I’m not actually a huge manhwa reader (I read like, old manhwa such as Boy of the Female Wolf in 2006 but that’s really it), but this was a great review of a bunch of really iconic manhwa

I think with th Overgeared and SSS class Suicide hunter the problem is fundamentally that there wasn't really enough time to get into what makes both stories special. Because with both of them the reason why they're special, especially the novels, isn't because the MC is OP but because the stories are at their core coming of age stories where you get to see the guys develop beyond their wildest dreams that goes well beyond their power and into who they are as people.

[@mememan9155]

I agree, also same for tbate

[@hermitcrabguy29]

Yeah. The whole appeal of Overgeared is watching the main character go from a normal (and kind of annoying) guy with overpowered armor to a universally admired and genuinely heroic figure who's done far more then surpass the legacy he's inherited. Which would be completely missed if you only read 5 chapters. Overgeared is a terrible recommendation for this sort of video.

Killing Stalking is actually an interesting case study. It's a psychological horror manga which was actually *intended* to be a psychological horror with realistic depiction of abuse and Stockholm's syndrome in, y'know... the victim, written by someone who *actually* knows a thing or two about how our monkey brains work. It's supposed to make you disgusted, and the most disgusting part about it is that none of it is that far-fetched. Situations like this do happen all over the world.

I BEG YOU TO READ ‘NO HOME/HOMELESS’ manhwa. -The story is about a high school dude who escaped from his house living in an abandoned, rumored to be cursed house because he couldn’t get into the dorm at the time. He meets a blonde cunning and kinda wicked junior boy who stole his wallet and accidentally stabbed him before. They both harbor a great hatred towards each other, yet have to live together in one creepy dorm. They get into breakdown every now and then, they’ll fight and help each other-one righteous, quiet and strict,-once pissed gets violent-other is really foxy, malicious and untidy, if he’s enraged, he badmouths and gaslight the other, provokes a further fight. THEY ARE LITERALLY OPPOSITES, and because of that, the way the dynamic is shown in this story is something no one wants to miss out. -The characters, dialogues are super real, and the story introduces varies of characters, all have different characters and problems of their own. The story introduces many events and will never bore you-thanksgiving arc-(they both have no one to go, the arc felt super lonesome and a bit of envious feeling, and the part where the two fights with each other broke the hearts of thousands)…and bro, the ghost parts are SUPER SCARY, it still creeps me out.🗿 One escaped because others saw her mother as a crazy woman, and was annoyed by his one and only beloved parent, and ends up losing her fully. Other one escapes from his abusive and alcoholic parents, and despised them deeply. Especially his alcoholic father. Other characters too, have very realistic problems and personalities. Mostly family issues-since they’re all high schoolers. For instance, one’s mother divorces and left his children to his father, who is really neglectful-the big brother bullies and beats her up, but father threatens them both they’ll get beaten if he hears anything about quarrel, and let her do all the chores because she was a girl., SUPER WELL WRITTEN, DRAWN IN VERY ADORABLE AND SIMPLE STYLE YET THE CONTENTS ARE…violent, heartbreaking (does have comedy and stuff though) You not only get the emotion through their faces, the background colors shows the throbbing mixed feelings you cannot express clearly. All I could spot was very frustrating feelings, hatred and despair. -but this is also wholesome story too, so there are super cute wholesome panels in the manhwa. Like the blonde dude feeling warm after a single healthy conversation with the mc…his eyes shined and the backgrounds turned into soft pinkish yellow(as I remember). I RECOMMEND IT TO EVERYONE. THIS MANHWA IS REALLY SOMETHING, I LOVES IT WHOLEHEARTEDLY.

There is a few manhwas in this video that fit that description, but at the same time thats just very common in this media to begin with. And even though he only commited to 5 chapters per manhwa for the video he also did read past and completed a bunch of them. which is what a good history should do, make you want to binge and continue reading and those are some of the top quality materials Others are either too old and authors were yet to grown up into their own beings and takes time to commit to a story that grows with time. Like personally, TBATE is an amazing novel and good manwha but IT is very much a copy of Mushoku tensei on the first couple chapters... Same goes for the generic histories of RPG genre in manwhas. It is their version of isekai which its almost inevitable to start off as generic copy of something. And once again is hard to commit to a history like that from the beginning.

WIND BREAKER??? You put the wrong title image for the biking anime and I bet the person recommended the high school fighting Wind breaker, does nobody in the comments watch your videos?

[@jao5545]

Right???!!! Wth no one was talking about that

[@Shiro-qy9mn]

I was just about to say that

[@semideias9474]

bro chill, it's not that deep

[@trapixart4779]

bro this is supposed to be about 'Manhwa' not manga so i think the person most likely recomended the manhwa one but as manga one is famous the editor must have put the wrong one.

The Beginning After The End is basically mushouko tensei, but when you get further into it, the system of magic and power get very interesting and makes fights really good.

[@wave1090]

The whole "proxy war between (basically) gods" concept is really cool and feels very unique.

[@helixlp582]

yeah its such a great piece of art

[@Terkiaz]

It's like mushouko tensei, without constant pedophilia!

[@Kamilistgud]

yeah the last few chapters didn't hit the same he was just training. Some random gods or smth forgot just said hey your world gonna die we want to help you

[@sorrymyhoney69]

sadly, it is done for now. the studio resigned.

[@liaraion6038]

Omniscient reader's viewpoint is such a life changing novel and i absolutely recommend it. It's long but i assure you it's 100% worth it. the found family in this is so crazy like everyone in the novel loves kim Dokja and they do everything possible to save him and right now there are the side stories on going and we're getting more information about what happened after the epilogue and some things are like crazy and so heart breaking. I just love the novel definitely a must read

[@liaraion6038]

@markdisalvi1487 oh yeah definitely. And maybe even start reading a bit before the arc because there are a lot of tiny little details that get excluded in the webtoon and that make the characters way better, especially Yoo joonghyuk. Like in the manhwa they took out a lot of parts were he shows a little bit of another emotion that isn't angry or negative and that takes out on his character and that he is actually human. (An example would be when they are done defeating orochi and KDJ tries YJH's food in the novel when dokja says that it's actually good YJH smiles a little).

[@CassidyGElnar]

orv made me miserable

[@Humanoid00]

ORV is the prequel of The World After the Fall (TWATF) since both of these story being written by same author.

[@Humanoid00]

@markdisalvi1487 TWATF still ongoing since there's no any light novel available on the internet for now.

[@liaraion6038]

@@Humanoid00 ORV is not a prequel nor sequel. They were simply connected in the side stories since yjh travelled through the other world lines and met jaehwan, but they are not in the same timeline or world nor is it needed to read ORV before TWATF

[@akemi-de-lol]

I personally like the one where the MC is a good villain. One of my personal favorites is called The Max Level Player. It is a more unique take on the "My life is tied to the video game world" Aspect, and really has some good world building. Along with the classic, "I'm OP without noticing anything." Trope of things, Like; Am I Invincible, or I'm Really Not the Evil Gods' Lackey. Good stories, and good for laughs occasionally.

[@smileweeb8932]

I know I may be late to give a suggestion but if you wouldn't mind reading Glacias, that would be great, its honestly a good story and the art is pretty well done, I'm surprised it hasn't gotten much love because I rarely see it.

[@ottovonbismarck4497]

i think there is a problem with reading only the first 5 chapters and that is with stories like suicide hunter or Tbate you do not really experience the story. both seem incredibly generic but both have changed me to an incredible degree because this generic world is a medium, not the story. Tbate is about a man trying to appreciate the emotions and world he has has around him, trying to desperately claw his way into a semi normal life and always failing because he is fated to be a blood thirsty monster and not a family man. Suicide hunter is about Gongja trying not to better himself, but others. saving them from the world around them using the abilities he has to make them understand. i cried on chapter 15, and i continued to cry every other arc after because its not an isekai, its an experience. past chapter 15, there are moments that are just as good as those in Sweet home or any other manhwa. please give it another try.

[@amicaniiya1576]

honestly, I avoided SSS-Class Suicide Hunter, both the novel and manhwa, because the title, synopsis and cover gave me that that impression you talked about (though I generally do think that execution is more important than premise), but then I saw various shorts with scenes of later chapters (which is how I get most of my recommendations these days) and grew intrigued and damn I don't regret it - I think what makes it work that A) he doesn't get overpowered out of nowhere, his titular SSS-Class ability is actually quite shitty at first and only gets viable through a combination of a bit of luck in his misfortune and his ingenuity, and even later he doesn't just instantly turn into a genius fighter but has to train and gain experience, and B) I really enjoy the interpersonal aspect of it, the protagonist isn't just a cold and aloof lone wolf but actually quite a gentle soul, this manhwa has genuinely made me cry multiple times, and it has one of the most well-executed romances of any action manhwa (and even compared some romance ones)

[@WizeWasido]

You wrote a damn paragraph

[@MsDj03]

It's a damn good paragraph

[@admiraljaded9575]

I completely agree, I genuinely thought it was gonna be another copy paste with an op mc, but instead I was blessed by the most emotional most beautiful manhwa I’ve read in a while

[@mm1nt]

this manhwa made me cry as well, the martial arts arc was honestly so emotional

[@manhwa_supremacy]

That manhwa is one of my earliest manhwa so a lot of other manhwa has turned me off because its wasn't as good as what i used to read. Tmi- TMI!! Killing Stalking has got me in a rabbit hole of a bl world then goddamm i can't get out. the first genuine bl i read is bj alex which is NOT GOOD. characters development is to die for but the content itself is pretty hardcore for newbie 😄😀 I have turned into such masochi** now 🥲 TMI

[@vivianthai1276]

Oh and for anyone who likes the hero's journey but make it more impactful and realistic, I recommend Star-Fostered Swordmaster [no regression, but werid lightning striking mc and giving him a disembodied spirit mentor that talks to him when he has a sword, but like - barely at all?? I got no clue what's going on with that, but the world building is interesting and characters got depth and I'm here for that] and The Story of a Low-Rank Soldier Becoming a Monarch [This one has time regression and a 'cheat' system for the mc, but it kinda gets forgotten and drowned out. The art style gets better too]

[@deadrabbit0695]

I've read a lot of these all the way through and some of the ones you gave a some what negative/mediocre rating on definitely are ones that you have to read a lot more chapters to fully understand the appeal and also im so glad you liked eleceed because many people shy away from it due to the art style and also ot gets SUPER good later on

[@ZECRA602]

Bro, you're sleeping on SSS-Class Revival Hunter because it's actually good. Also, the Returner's Magic Should Be Special is also amazing as well

[@DarIsANoob]

Based

[@skaze8653]

I also recommend a returners magic I don't hate a single character in the story, every protagonist and antagonist are written well
