I had a manhwa I used to enjoy back in the day named "XUnbalanceX". It broke every manga trope indicative of its genre - first and foremost being the main protagonist was a stud. Then the comic was sold to a Japanese publisher, and it became so formulaic that even the cool protagonist's personality was turned into the typical pansy anime lead who would get nosebleeds.

Isekai is a great genre that's been around since the 80's. I bet fans could suggest some that you'd like if you were open to it

some of my favorite webtoons:
  • The Boxer (highly recommended)
  • How to Fight (the story has kind of drug out, though)
  • Itaewon Class
  • Lookism (it feels like it lost its initial plot, but is still entertaining)
  • Mercenary Enrollment
  • My Life as a Loser
  • Skeleton Soldier Couldnt Protect The Dungeon
  • Weak Hero
Questism & Solo Leveling are also fun.

yea, even though it's different from how it started out, I still really like it.

if you have the webtoon app, you can read it for free (legitimately), but you have to pay for tokens after a bit for the more recent chapters.

Isekai just simply means going into a different world, which is almost any media ever. What people mean when they talk about Isekai's are the harem Isekai's that are absolutely dominant right now. You know where it takes place in a Medieval setting, the main character is some self insert power male fantasy, a bunch of women like the main character because the story demands them to, etc.

those are all isekai mangas/anime homie
isekai manhwa dont give a fuck about romance let alone a harem 99% of the time
of the ones i recommended pretty much only overgeared and reincarnation of a suicidal battle god have a noticeable amount of romance, and in overgeared he marries the chick and has a baby, and in battlegod, its established from literally the first chapter that she's his love interest and that theyd been together for some time

tbqh thats why i like isekai manhwa a lot, bc it very rarely has harem fanservice nosebleed nonsense
and if the dude does have a love interest, they prolly gonna get married and have babies
its 99% badass dudes doing badass shit

there was a manhwa i loved, and wished got an animated series.

i dont recall the name, but the main character was a school kid, he met some guy named lightning fist or something. lightning lost a fight and only his arm remained. said kid inherited the arm and acquired powers. (i guess, i vaguely remember the first chapter)

he went to a highschool with other teens with powers. one of the first bullies the main character met was someone that could armor their entire body.

it was wild. i believe it was called veritas?

Well it does seem to be gaining popularity, but its not a stretch to say not many people have heard of it, especially compared to Manga.

Gochujang is really passe.

I used it for years in the early 00's, but it got dull. Then I discovered Sriracha in the late 00's, which is more flavorful... but it got dull, too.

Now, El Yucateco's Kutbil-ik salsa picante is my go-to sauce.

Also, for the thread... Manhwa takes itself too seriously. You'll never find anything like:

https://youtu.be/M_tMD5bTbLM

I know people who would be incredibly offended at that. Because of what was put on the hotdog. The "hot dog elite" are weird, and apparently feel that tomatoes are the fruit of satan.

Manhwa better than manga for powerfantasy stuff at least for the first 50-150 chapters before they becomes repetitive. Still more satisfying than most Shounen manga tho.

And the isekai mangas are barely even getting started most of the time and ontop of that they almost all have monthly release dates. So it takes fucking forever!!!!! might as well check out the web or light novels which are like several volumes ahead or are completed.

I find Manga to be great for weirder edgy stuff but it hard to look at them on a phone cuz of the small panels and lack of color. Have to use a monitor or tv to see it properly . Actually even on a larger screen some manga have art that is hard to tell what is going on. Like the first few chapters of "The world is mine" is confusing af. I couldn't really see what was going on in some panels. Needs coloring.

I also want to recommend Existence.

it's about a being, from the beginning of life, who after dying, finds that they reincarnate into another living form, and retains their memory.

this goes on until they eventually reincarnate as a human.

It was definitely "Veritas".

The artwork was gorgeous. Too bad it was canceled on a cliff hanger. Definitely worth it to see a fresh new take on the fighting school genre. It completely messed with your expectations including one amazing twist I probably should have seen coming. The fact it eschewed genre conventions was probably why it didn't last long.
