it's unfortunate that this isn't good given how many chapters there are. everything satisfying just doesn't have enough length to dig in, while garbage like Overgeared is impervious to cancellation and will have hundreds of chapters with solid art.

novel has one girl, no harem. MC is romantically oblivious as a character trait and FC is romantically proactive. Don't think romance comes for a long while though

It's funny, interesting, and the novel has no harem (only a single woman partner). The impossible has happened and somehow there is a good manhua. I don't know how they did it when every other manhua without exception is unreadable garbage that makes you dumber. Read this and behold a miracle

This sucks. FL, in order to get the perfect revenge or something, doesn't do anything to blonde shithead ex for over 100 chapters. it's her goal the entire manhwa and she's depicted as a just character, but would rather have people die in ignorance of Gaspar's lies, abuse, etc. rather than reveal him. She effectively lets people die for no reason at all; bad guy has MC-level plot armor for exaggerated and ridiculous prolonged drama. It feels like the author didn't want to kill him off because they had no other ideas about where the plot could go otherwise. Just absolutely terrible and builds to nothing.

the art in this is disgusting; MC is so unlikable it's crazy. 3/10

This is the type of manga where the MCs will thwart an evil character's plans and then just let them go every single time, whether demon, evil character who kills people, evil character who tries to kill children and destroy the town, etc. Then that evil character will show up again and again, endangering many of the MCs' friends and acquaintances. Then, a demon will come and be like, "they don't like you and might think you're worthless, but I can help you" if you just do X horrible thing, or become possessed by a demon. This is the kind of story where the MC not killing people to maintain the status quo always causes more problems because the people he lets go always have grudges the demons exploit. Maybe this is just the way mangaka like to write stories, but I find this kind of conflict to be pretty annoying. MC is a massive mary sue who thinks taking half measures against evil rather than fully resolving the problem will somehow allow him to continue his peaceful life. The characterization of most other characters is well done, but it just isn't that enjoyable to me. 6.5/10

i wish there was a chinese tag on this site (or else a consistently applies manhua tag) so i could filter it all out. every manhua is bad, no exceptions.

Him lying about awakening as a tamer is the funniest thing in the manhwa so far

He's lying for literally no reason at all. It'd be a hassle isn't enough of a reason to put yourself into a way more difficult situation to handle. Lying to his daughter has no benefit to him at all

Not wholesome. It's basically a cheating/ntr plot where after any major development between main couple, shy girl (who claims she's not a lesbian) emotionally and physically cheats with their mutual friends at the first opportunity (in all cases, she initiates the cheating). It's a terrible manga where there's the cliche of all the girls depicted are actually lesbians despite none of them being out, just for max cheating potential. Shy girl is a straight up terrible person and low-key bitch. Her wishy-washy attitude and lack of trustworthiness shows why she didn't have friends and should not have them in the future either. You want to root against her unless you're a degenerate who likes ntr plots. Not recommended.

I didn't know a manga couple could get together without 100 chapters of inching towards a confession before taking 10 steps back. Uncharted territory.

author doesn't know how to draw ears. too distracting for me

this starts out good with romance being the focus, but then falls apart in later chapters. I wish the focus was just on the romance rather than moving from ecchi-ish romance to pure ecchi, then a stupid love triangle, and then pointless backstory. the tone just doesn't support what it's showing. It becomes increasingly ironic, sarcastic, and emotionally distant as it goes on, which is a bad choice for what's romance first, as well as a manga which of course has the slowest releases schedule imaginable. she's clearly in love for the first 20 chapters, but it gets expressed as just lust and using the MC later. this slowly becomes the most lowest common denominator bakemonogatari horny bullshit by the most recent chapters

And MC activates his virgin shield, but wait, FMC counters with aggressive flirting. MC responds with a predictable self cock-block, but again FMC has an answer. She touches him and makes it rain through her mysterious divination powers. It looks like they will smash, though MC is undefeated this season in protecting his virginity. Will she be able to use her knockers for the TKO seduction? We'll see the results, right after this break.

"halo effect" is copium for losers. if a character has no positive qualities and just serves as an empty insert character, they are a nobody. a passive houseplant of a MC is boring every single time, no exception. if half the story revolves around someone with no confidence, no friends, no interests (besides the most common denominator), no personality, no presence, etc., he should not be in a romance. I don't think characters in these lighthearted stories need to be chad handsome megarizzers, but they should have at least one quality (beyond obligatory nothing japanese manners) that make them attractive to the FMC--and it doesn't even have to be something traditionally attractive. if he's short, make him cute to the FMC for being small. make him average looking but smart or have unexpectedly good conversation skills. make him super into something weird FMC also likes. make him unique or interesting in some way so there's something to grab onto or explain why the most sought after women likes a complete loser (beyond it just being for shameless loser insert reasons). make him something legible as an individual person, rather than an empty void whose attractiveness to the girl seemed to just be "has a warm body and is in my class." if he's a houseplant of a person, then why didn't she fall for any of the other manga-reading, no club-attending, friendless, awkward dork houseplants in her class? and "he was kind and returned my eraser in the first year of middle school and now i love him 4 years later" is not enough reason in a story; there needs to be logic in storytelling and super desirable girl likes houseplant loser is narratively incoherent every time

MC uses his daughter to make money on YouTube. I don't think it's right to subject your kid to that kind of attention; content creator is a job. if the $ depends on the kid, it's not just a hobby for her but a job. "i know you don't want to right now, but we need to for money" - wrong.

Overall, this is a lot like Komi but with a better, weirder girl and nicer art. Also, the title of this could easily be "This boy is average but extremely lucky" - weird hot girl likes him for no reason just because he said hi to her once. However, he is much better than the typical insert nothing MC. he gets nervous but it's rarely an obstacle since he has autopilot blackout rizz that saves him from passivity whenever his nerves strike. if only he could have a growth spurt so he stops looking like a 10 year old, he'd be really good

MC is too unlikable for too long. His approach to this world is the equivalent of training a magikarp to lvl 100 by only fighting lvl 2 pidgeys because he doesn't know anything about pokemon games. he is stupid which leads to inefficiency; this is played for humor but it's not funny; it just makes the plot bad. i find no reason to read a story so focused on a very detestable and dumb main character. Others say he improves as it goes on but I've read 125 chapters and he is still terrible and stupid. it is bad; read something else

Guilty pleasure. The setup of this is so morally scuffed and weird, but maybe that's more of a positive eval
