Description

202X. x3e4v

In the back alleys of Seoul, South Korea…

He looked down at the heroes under his feet—the heroes who adorned themselves in a variety of colorful clothes, as if they were K-pop idols on TV.

Those heroes? They were crawling beneath him, their gaudy outfits smeared with dirt.

That was the true nature of being a hero. He hoped the individuals before him learned that lesson well.

It was time to ensure they never forgot it.

As a magical girl, he swung his hammer down.

This is a bright story. The story of a man reclaiming his light.

Words cannot fully express my disdain for this webcomic.

I'm a bit of a gender bender connoisseur, so when I saw this webcomic by chance I went in with moderate expectations.

To cut to the point: this webcomic is not good. In my opinion, it is the precise opposite of good. Let me explain.

First, the worldbuilding. Nonexistent. What's established doesn't make any sense, and more than that, its just bloody boring. You can always tell when an author has spent time thinking their setting through, so that even in the beginning. before the setting has had time to be established, the story still conveys this sense that what we're seeing is situated in a much larger and full-bodied world. There is none of that in this story. I don't even if the story takes place in bloody Korea! I assume it does, but if it was some nondescript parallel urban environment then it wouldn't change a thing. Superheroes and supervillains? Their existence and presence is just, so, flimsy. I can't think of a single part of the world that gripped me at all. There was that one mention of monsters association or whatever but it was so vague and unweighty that I barely scheiße about it.

I personally don't like My Hero Academia's worldbuilding very much, for a variety of reasons, but at least that has some meat to it. Hero rankings (and don't Korean Webnovels love Rankers), heroes having different specialties and roles, etc, which combine to make a world that feels like it exists (to a certain extent). It doesn't even have to make sense, it just has to hold up to a surface level glance. This is, I think, the biggest problem with this story. Everything (immersion, investment, intrigue) hinges upon the story being able to sell me on its existence. On this, it fails, and it fails miserably.

Second, Character. This also ties into what I said about the story failing to sell me on its (zero?) merits. The Main character is a dickwad who throws around their power bullying other superheroes for "not living up to the ideal of what a hero should be" and faces zero consequences for it (granted this unfortunately isn't uncommon in webcomics/webnovels). I could except that, if the story didn't seem fully concerned with portraying this in such a self-righteous way. Have you ever listened to someone speak and think, "Wow. What kind of bizarro world is this person living in?" I've found that there is a similar phenomenon when it comes to stories. I will it that my personal morals plays a part in my distaste for this, and you may disagree for justifiable reasons. But it also just, doesn't make any sense?

Like, first chapter, this whole bullying spree is kicked off when one of the main character's hero friends die due to... honestly it was so unmemorable and poorly explained that I only vaguely a civilian having something to do with it? ~~Good for spoilers I guess.~~ Anyways, dude dies, and instead of being mad at the rotten system and society that mistreats its heroes that work thanklessly to keep it safe, MC decides to... go attack other heroes? I honestly wasn't even mad at first, just, confused. I thought I'd missed something but, no, that seems to be their motivation. They break the other heroes' bones, just utterly brutalize them, and they seem to think this is justified somehow.

It's just unbelievable. A bit in the way that a flat-earther's reasoning is unbelievable, but mostly in the way that my primary school fanfiction was unbelievable, and at least primary school me tried to think through its characters' reasonings. Just, baffling. It breaks what little immersion I had and, most damningly of all, isn't interesting in the slightest. I read 20 or so chapters and this behavior isn't ever meaningfully challenged, acknowledged, or even considered really. Also, the gender bender gimmick barely comes into play or acknowledged, which on all s is just sad.

My anger's petered out for the most part from writing this, and now I'm just left with a sense that I wasted my time. I really wanted to like this: I sat through a dozen+ chapters, forced myself past my growing list of gripes, until finally I just couldn't accept putting myself through this any further. If you like it, then all the more power to you. For me though, this is one of the rare few stories I dislike enough to post online about. My score is a 1/10, and I think I've given enough reasoning to justify my opinion on that. TLDR: In my opinion, it's uninspired, unimmersive, ignores its gimmick, and most of all, cripplingly boring.
