I Will Raise This Family Up
36 So I came into this thinking the MC was going to be a child actor, but I thought wrongly. Despite him not being an actor though, I found the story to be quite engaging. It’s similar to the webtoon Reborn Rich if you’ve heard of it. It’s satisfying seeing the MC work his way back to the top and using his knowledge of the future to his advantage. Not what I expected but I’m not mad about it

18 Their dynamic seems fun!
Oshi no Ko
A manga that explores the dark side of the entertainment industry! The tragic ending was definitely…. ***SPOILER*** Killing off Aqua was definitely a choice. He didn’t have to die, you know? There were absolutely other ways for revenge to be served. SIGHS IDK HOW TO FEEL ABT IT. kind of feels like a cop out on the author’s part. The buildup makes the ending fairly disappointing… The MC’s quest for revenge ends in such an…anticlimactic way? The author just chooses to revert back to that shock factor the premise has without any real substance imo. That aside, I do like how the author isn’t afraid to shy away from the nitty gritty of the entertainment industry with themes like pedophilia, parasocial relationships, etc. Some aspects were definitely weird though like wdym the two twins KISSED??! The borderline incest makes me want to kms. The art is definitely one of a kind; I’ve never seen such an emphasis on the characters’ pupils. I did love the few acting elements that that were present, but above all, this mangaka nailed both the negative and positive sides to being an idol. Not perfect, but the story certainly captivated me!
Hello! Veterinarian!
78 Ooh a veterinarian manhwa. I like this! Slice of life vibes. The animals r rly cute. Okay, yea this has a cute fluffy disguise, but REALLY this surprises me by the mature themes it tackles. The themes of grief and living life, finding your vocation. But also the friendship and uplifting each other?! UGH it’s just so relatable… Love how there isn’t any romance in this
