pluviophiliac's manga / #precious as hell(687)

available on webcomics!!!

this looks truly spectacular thus far! i’m reading it on the webtoon app since it’s available on there for free. plus in great quality, too!!! y’all should head over there and support the creators of this masterpiece. it’s only polite. ;) edit: i’m seriously LOVING this. it’s fucking great! and brief occasional comedic scenes (in pretty much every other chapter) are seriously ingenious, lol. i’m cracking up like crazy. frankenstein and rai’s dialogues are fucking HYSTERICAL. can’t believe i’ve barely read a tenth of this whole thing, haha. oh well!!! it’s most def quality content. and those door opening scenes, too, lmfao!! i literally CANNOT. wheeze quality material, fo sho. edit #2: i get chills all over my body every single time he says “kneel” and that’s no exaggeration. like, papiiii!!! you’re so fucking HOT. and so is frankie, naturally. the art has improved so much and i didn’t even notice it until, like, chapter 200–aka season 4. just saw a panel from the first chapter and it’s like it’s a completely different story, y’all… ;–; but in the best way possible!!! i get more and more invested the more i read. SKJWHDKABDHSJBIXJAKS!!! edit #3: these characters are seriously among the most lovable and admirable ones i’ve seen in a long time. and raizel especially! he deserves the world. we must unite and protect this angel AT. ALL. COSTS. and the loyalty these guys have for each other… my god, my heart literally aches. i love them all. - — - — - — - — - edit #4: i haven’t been making any edits here for a long time now… it’s been around 300 chapters or so, i believe? either way, it’s partially because i’ve been reading nonstop for awhile now, and i’ve even been struggling with the simple notion of taking small breaks to catch my breath—let alone spare a moment to update y’all on where my thoughts are at. to put it simply, i just completed this three minutes ago and i’m literally SOBBING. still reeling from the aftershocks writing this. i haven’t ugly-sobbed from reading a story in years… i barely even cry in general. but this manhwa made me weep and literally WAIL at 05:00 in the fucking morning because i refused to go to sleep once i realized i only had a few dozen chapters remaining. i mean… i’m simply mind-blown by this. definitely one of the best stories i’ve ever read. and i do mean EVER. (note that i’ve read a lot of them at this point in time, lol.) i know i’ve said this before, but my standards are relatively high—yet they’re still constantly rising. knowing that, i’d still consider this story a top tier prime example of creativity, emotional engagement and commitment. 540+ chapters and i NEVER got bored. this is literally unheard of in my case. truly, i never imagined i’d get so emotionally invested in this… nor did i expect to grow so attached to these characters. seriously, i fucking ADORE these people. some of the best ones i’ve ever come across, to be honest. i think raizel might be my favorite MC ever; frankenstein reaches a close second. they’ve just been constantly growing on me since the very beginning—more so as of late than ever before. it’s been a real blessing getting to see each and every single one’s character development and growth. the only reason i’ve been able to collect myself by now is the fact that there’s another noblesse short story other than this one… which will explain this amazing ending that kinda broke me. (i can’t cope, lol. i think my system’s malfunctioning.) anyway. i seriously should be sleeping right now (it’s 05:29 AM), but i just needed to add this while the endorphins in my blood are still running wild and my emotions are still fresh. it’s literally a masterpiece. i need to buy the graphic novels or something. i’d even attempt learning korean if there aren’t any english translations published or available. i don’t even care anymore. i just know it’d be worth it. EVERYONE should be reading this. now, i’m gonna head back to my bed and sob some more before i pass out. take care, y’all. see you in the next one. - — - — - — - — - soooo, there’s that. i just woke up and i still feel emotional thinking about how the story’s over now, lol. but like i said, there’s a side story about rai that’ll hopefully help me calm my nerves! it’ll surely completely shatter me, if nothing else. but who knows? 10/10, would ABSOLUTELY recommend. such an emotional—yet endearing—power trip. i was actually kind of doubtful about reading this at first, i’ll admit... apparently i’d already read the first chapter on webtoon long ago and decided it wasn’t for me. still, obviously-and-not-so-surprisingly, i gave it another shot over a year later (once i’d broadened my horizons a little bit) and fell in love instantly. it was just so unique, intriguing and refreshing. raizel was a type of main character i’d never come across before, and the side characters were interesting, fun and very compelling as well. frankenstein grew on me INSTANTLY. well, i mean… naturally, lol. M-21, muzaka, takeo, tao, seira, regis, shinwu & company, gejutel, raskreia, former lord whatshisname and pretty much EVERYONE else weren’t all that far behind, either. us readers just kept on being introduced to new, enthralling side characters—all of whom had unique personalities and interesting traits. i looooved the nobles and the werewolves, too. especially by the time we’d reached the final conclusion... the whole dynamic of it all just felt so damn wholesome and admirable. oh, but i won’t be listing any more names because i feel it’d be a bit abundant—i’m sure you get my point. anyway. you know what else i loved? the epic fighting scenes. they only grew more exciting and grand with time. and the buildups were NEVER letdowns. i don’t think i’ve ever taken this many screenshots from one single story before, lol. i know i also said the exact same about ‘solo leveling’ which i completed just two weeks ago (and worshipped ‘til the very end), but i honestly think i have that one beat in numbers of screenshots. sheesh. P.S. for what it’s worth, i also watched the anime (there’s only one season available right now) once i’d made it about… halfway through the story, i believe? anyway, it was pretty alright, too. i kinda liked it more in the beginning than i did later on—mainly because the version of raizel in the anime didn’t exactly coincide with the raizel i’d grown accustomed to in the manhwa. (he talked a loooot more, haha.) i felt it was somewhat anti-climactic overall... there were so many details, including characters, that were overlooked, lacking or or simply missing altogether. i’ll probably watch the next season when it airs, no doubt, but it will never compare to the actual story. but, once again, thank you for coming to my TED-talk!!! this is a clear new favorite of mine—for lots of different reasons. it’s rare coming across a story that continually pulls you in the more you read. usually i’d experience a decline in either quality or plot, but this one didn’t disappoint me at all. i might be biased for all i know, but it was crazy good still. i’m completely in love. anyway!!! appreciate you for sticking around ‘til the very end of this review. i hope i managed to properly (or at least somewhat) express just how big of a mark this story has left on me in the name of manhwa and all that is holy. it’s now been about 7,5 hours since i finished it, and bro—i’m legit STILL reeling from this shit. i’m confident i’ll be rereading this soon, though. beware!!! <3

i just finished noblesse a short while ago. i’m sobbing and therefore in desperate need of a distraction ASAP. can’t believe it’s over. fuck me. but just as expected, this was wholesome af!!! a nice little escape into events that happened way before his 820 year long slumber. really appreciate the creators for giving us this bonus on top of everything, though... i truly miss these guys already. i just wish we’d get to find out just how rai and everyone else managed to survive that final scene in the actual noblesse story. hmmm… will we ever get to find out? i hope so, but i’ll try not to expect too much. it’s been an amazing experience either way. creators, I LOVE YOU. and thank you. (P.S. this, just like noblesse, is available for free on webtoon. head over there and support the creators.)

this looks so cute!!!

i have noooo idea which genre i should be placing this under. looks great, though!

this is ACTUAL. FUCKING. COMEDY. GOLD. i haven’t stopped wheezing since chapter #1. seriously, it’s basically a ‘stop-i-can’t-breathe-help-me’ type of laughter at this point, and it won’t die out. it just keeps. on. coming. this is some truly top-tier, hilariously funny work of artistry at play here. it’s not often one gets a female lead like the weirdo that is the one and only geumja kim, lmfao. she’s an original; an ICON, and i absolutely love her to pieces. kyle’s amazing, too! but their chemistry, man… i legit, physically cannot handle any more of their weird, crude-but-strangely-wholesome banter—it’s killing me. my stomach’s aching from all the cracking-up i’ve been doing these past three hours, help.

15 chapters in and i can already tell that this is going to be an amazing story. edit: 123 chapters in and i’m maaaad obsessed. i’m too tired to explain my thoughts at the moment, but hey, you guys will definitely be missing out on something great if you don’t check this one out. i guarantee you won’t be sorry! edit #2: OH. MY. GOD. i forgot just how powerful this guy is. man, this is why i’m here. this is incredible stuff, fuck.

i can just TELL that this is going to be incredible. ughhh.
