In a rare example of the YouTube algorithm doing it's job (mine seems focused on actual comedy, action and food), I kept getting shorts showing off different Manhwa. I knew about thanks to Solo levelling and the few shows that Crunchyroll promoted that didn't live up to the hype they pushed so made a Webtoons account to try it out...
Yeah I fell into a rabbit hole thanks to 4 series....
The short that got me into it was of Teenage Mercenary thanks to a short of him beating the crap out his sister's bullies. This is good action series with one of my favourite characters being Dushik Cha, with many comments calling him the 'gangster uncle'. From there started to move on to ZOMGAN thanks to recommendations. This one REALLY goes hard early on in that it comes with music, great visuals and a dark comedy vibe to it. I then after catching up, moved to The Advanced Player of the Tutorial Tower, an action comedy that is just a fun time especially with the main character's attitude.
Then there is the one that REALLY made me realise I'm in this rabbit hole forever, Omniscient Reader, dear god is this a good series as it even made Twitch streaming sound badass!
So while western comic media is circling the drain and the film universes are fatiguing, it does seem like if you want entertainment both read and watched, you turn East. So has anyone else got into similar rabbit holes as I know we have a large anime viewership here and can maybe have a few recommendations for a guy just starting to branch out.
It's Friday so let's have some good things we can suggest for the weekend rather than be drained by all the shit we see advertised in the West.
I do too but at least if they make work like Solo Levelling and Omniscient Reader, they are slowly building to catch up
Than the DC approach to Marvel of using a catapult and crossing your fingers lol
