What? No. I'm talking about the big-nose aliens leveraging a past catastrophe that some extremists suspect never actually happened, to assume parasitical positions of control in finance, government and media in a civilization that they did not build. And the world at large seems to be growing "fatigued" with their nepotistic antics.

Expelled from 109 planets and yet it's never the aliens' fault.

Maybe the true ending is the friends we made along the way.

I always feel like I never got enough when these chapters end. I guess that means they're doing it right where you always want more.

The hair change makes him look like he went from a soldier in the military to a Shonen protagonist. Which I guess he sort of did.

Something tells me that User-8520969107 is probably of the (((alien persuasion))) himself given how angrily and insistently he's trying to fight everyone in the comments.

I don't mind a timeskip, but acquiring deus ex powers and abilities while skipped is lame. Also, the art is different. Not necessarily worse, but noticeably different. I'm not sold on this new season.

Hope next chapter Gillion gets to mix it up. I love seeing that old lion in action.

This manhwa has really flown off the rails. It starts with a basic premise, a severely bullied kid is pushed to the point that he's planning suicide. During one extreme event, he shoves a bully in front of a car and the kid goes into a coma. He's kicked out of school, his family throws him out of the house, and he's forced to survive on the streets to avoid dying. He joins a group of runaways who show him how to scavenge and how to fight and defend himself.

Little by little though, and especially in season 2, it all just kind of flies apart. Runaway groups that are stronger than the mafia. International drug and human trafficking, whole armies of soldiers waging wars in the streets. Every now and then the story tries to remind you that this seemingly endless population of professional mercenaries are all 15 year old runaways, of which there are approximately five to every regular person in Korea somehow.

It's like the author got bored of the story and wanted to write something new, but the publisher didn't want to give up on the money they were getting from this one. So they just repurposed the existing story into something unrecognizable. Overall, it's still a good looking product, it's just... not what it originally was and the escalation of how it got from there to here is really jarring.

This comic is right, we should support our greatest ally Israel and forgive them for their unprovoked attacks on the USS Liberty.

I was really hoping that when he made his next appearance that he'd be amazing. Not just having risen from terrible to mediocre.

Shocked that everyone is complaining that the OP necromancer that wins every single impossible fight and just got a new demigod form with which he won another impossible fight isn't OP enough for them.

You have to appreciate how good a job the writer did making us hate that piece of shit. This'll be one of the most cathartic deaths in a manhwa ever.

The publisher is immunized against all dangers: one may call him a scoundrel, parasite, swindler, profiteer, it all runs off him like water off a raincoat. But call him a publisher and you will be astonished at how he recoils, how injured he is, how he suddenly shrinks back: “I’ve been found out.”

Synopsis looked great, but after reading the underwhelming first chapter... Think this is a pass for me, bros.

I read up through Chapter 63, Season 2, and came to the conclusion that this just isn't for me.

I'd been reading a lot of Murim manhwas and was looking for a change of pace, specifically a fantasy isekai. That's how Worthless Regression presents itself at the start. A man is isekai'd into a fantasy world with classes and status windows as a No Class, lives a miserable life, and then regresses back to the start. On paper, that checked every box I was looking for.

Early on, the story establishes that this world pulls people from many different realities, including Murim settings. One of the major early characters is a Heavenly Demon type straight out of a Murim story. At first, that's fine, because the broader setting still feels firmly fantasy: adventurer guilds, ranked parties, magic, trolls, liches, and so on.

Over time, though, it becomes clear that the author isn't interested in telling a fantasy story. The fantasy framing feels more like something their publisher demanded they write and the author couldn't abandon that premise fast enough. Little by little, those fantasy elements are sidelined, until what's left is almost entirely a Murim story. This isn't a slow-burn hybrid or a balanced blend, it's a total genre shift.

For roughly the last forty chapters I read, the protagonist has effectively abandoned the fantasy side of the world. The focus is on cultivation, internal energy, martial hierarchies, and sect politics. He's visiting the Shaolin Temple, training under monks, consuming Qi pills, studying secret manuals, and fighting between Orthodox and Unorthodox factions. At some point it clicked that I wasn't reading a fantasy isekai with Murim elements, I’d been bamboozled into another full Murim manhwa with a coat of fantasy paint.

That said, the quality is undeniably there. The art is strong, the plot is engaging, and the protagonist genuinely struggles, suffers, and grows rather than coasting on regression alone. Nothing about this feels lazy or poorly executed. It just isn't the story I thought I was committing to. If you're not experiencing Murim fatigue, this is a fantastic read and I'd recommend it to anyone.

Every chapter this guy keeps whining about the fortress. Every. One.

It's the worst possible time. You just finished the latest chapter and are now at the longest possible time away from a new one.
