Do y'all also lose interest in reading the manhwa after reading the novel?

Because that's the case for me except Passion. After reading Dash, Codename Anastasia, Kiss Me If You Can and Into the Thrill I lost interest and barely read them anymore. I still read the updates but the anticipation isn't there anymore especially Kiss Me If You Can and Dash. I basically just scroll past everything.

I would say though, novel is better because you'd read the MC's thoughts more and some also shows the ML's pov and it's not much protagonist centric.

Zhenya and Taekjoo is much MUCH prettier in my imagination too than the manhwa visual, I think the artist gave them justice but it won't compare to what I see in my head when I was reading the novel.

    For me, it is time consuming to read the novel then back at the manhwa again.

    And when I read the manhwa, I only just skim it because I already know something, I just want to look to the drawing.

    Sometimes. It depends on the story and how much of the novel is adapted into the manwha. I like relying on my imagination while reading novels, so it's interesting to see how others interpret the characters.

    i don’t really see the point in reading the comic when the novel’s almost always better anyway. i only bother if i really like the story.
