Trapped in a Webnovel as a Good for Nothing
Moved from updated 4️ Chp 110, Oct 2022 Definitely worth 4️, but the long power up descriptions and unnecessary isekai make it 4 not 5. Otherwise the story, translation, pacing and art are all good. Orphan becomes doctor (we get almost no indication of his previous life other than this) and wakes up as a character from a novel he is reading. He uses the knowledge from the novel to save his life and become OP, but not too OP, he doesn't want to overshadow the MC because it seems like a lot of work to be the MC. He just wants to be strong enough that he cam protect himself. The world is a novel so there are game like powers and power upside (complete with home screen) and dungeons to use those powers in.
Poison Dragon: The Legend of an Asura
Mobed from updated, but may be dropped? 4️ Chp 103 Oct 2022 Good, not great, failed to hold my attention sometimes but very original ideas inside of a pretty standard man v world plot. It is new to have a main character that isn't completely OP. MLs sect is destroyed and the boy has a traumatic young life. Once he is a young man he takes the fragmented pieces he has learnt to attempt to get revenge for his family and friends. The more secrs he takes down, the more people he kills, the more he realizes he may have to kill everyone to correct the corrupt system.
My Dad Is Too Strong
Moved from updated 5️ ch 106 Nov 2022 Very cute, wholesome but not kiddish! Man returns from being in another world were he became the top fighter. Now that he is back on earth he wants to live a quiet life. He gains a daughter 2 pet dragons and many friends.
Nano Machine
Moved from updated Read on Webtoons 4️ ch 133 Dec 2022 Not a regular time travel, his ancestor brings him nano technology which helps him succeed. He uses the technology and his own determination and wits to rise amoung the other eligible sect candidates. He is not afraid to kill or maim his opponents so best to stay on his good side. Not too bad, though parts are definitely muddled as far as people's motivation and there are so many characters to try and keep straight and everything has the name evil, sword or demon so it can get confusing.
Lord of Misfortune
Ch 144, Dec 22, ML has very bad luck, it is so bad he gets possessed by a demon. The demons luck turns bad and the possession fails. Now they are stuck together and find themselves fighting other bad actors with increasing regularity. Very good, the translation at the beginning gets better but from the comments the author may have dropped it.
The Weight of Betrayal
Revival Man
Moved from updated 5️, Ch 175, Jan 2023 Really, really good. First part is present, second part is prequel. Just what the summary says, man comes back after dieing, even after 175 chps I am not sure why. This book does kill people so be aware, but that adds to the suspense because you can never be sure when the author will kill a character. And boy ... the suspense is palpable. Had to walk away a couple times because it was just a lot! ML is very loveable and the side cast are all.amazing with tons of varied and realistic trauma to fill my baser needs. Definitely worth reading! Part of the SuperString universe: Revival Man, Terror Man, Terror vs Revival, Neolithic Girl, Westwood Vibrato, Distant Sky, Jungle Juice
The Constellation That Returned From Hell
Moved from updated 4️ Ch 110, Jan 2023 Pretty good, usually kept me interested but it dragged at times and is seeming to become repetitive. ML gets confused and wanders the Abyss for ten thousand? Years and comes back much stronger. On earth there is dungeons and monsters and the ones in control are the constellations who can give powers to their servants. (Though you don't need a constellation to be strong because there is magic everywhere). Hunters still go into dungeons but also have hunter sports. Not the best I have read, and there are major plot holes, but far from the worst.
The Strong Man From The Mental Hospital
Moved from updated 5️ Ch 153 Jan 12, 2023 Sooooo F-ing Good The translation is horrible, but power through my friends because this is a story worth reading. The story begins in a mental hospital in a world where monsters attack humans. The ML is always trying to hurt himself to train and grow stronger, his roommate at the hospital is willing to help. Can the 2 of them get strong enough to save the world? Or are they just crazy. Very funny, but you have to let go of your sensitivities to enjoy it. Author isn't intentionally cruel to mental health issues but doesn't shy away from words like crazy and insane either.
