Cause I follow the author/artist and they haven’t mentioned anything abt it in forever. And they’re working on another story at the moment. Was just wondering if I should keep my hopes up or not

Read this. You will laugh, you will cry, you will have your heart broken. I reread this webtoon every time I go through a breakup, toxic or not. Its the ultimate webtoon for anyone in a situationship.

I really really loved this webtoon! I was disappointed when the author quit ☹️ I was hoping that maybe it'll come back but it's been years now. And when the author gave a major plot spoiler I knew it was never coming back. Such a missed opportunity!

Hey, new college grad here, wanted to expand my connections and network myself in other ways instead on LinkedIn. Might as well try to connect with people who share the same hobbies as mine. Currently looking for any technical roles like cybersecurity, data engineering, technical sales, and anything entry level basically. Feel free to DM for my resume or linkeldn connection. My favorite webtoon all time is Dark Mortal

I noticed that most official English translations westernize everything
They remove all suffixes and change it to Mr./mrs. Or something similarly equivalent
If the original uses hyung/noona/etc. It will not be translated as such but rather just say the name
Or endings with -ah/-ie are left out as well
I know it's not that deep, but it does give subtle context to how close or formal characters are being with each other
The surname name order is also changed
Instead of kim dokja it's dokja kim
It just feels wrong and does not have the same flow anymore
Especially if you consider how often characters call each other by their full name

I know that this is not necessarily a new thing
Back in my Manga days 20 years ago all Mangas were translated similarly
But at some point they stopped westernising everything and instead gave tl notes to explain what those details mean (at least my German mangas)
With manhwas it was similar
At some point they shifted to explaining hyung etc. And just continued like that and no one complained (as far as I could tell)

But in recent years they changed it back to the westernized version and it just irks me so much
It makes sense if the story is set in a western world like those victorian historical manhwas
But if the setting is korea, it doesn't make sense to force the tl into a western setting
Just give tl notes when needed
It wasn't a problem before, people are able to learn and you get a better sense of the meaning behind specific dialogues

I know it's just a small thing and I'm grateful that we get so many official english tls, but GOSH
When did we revert back to this tl style 😭

I hate that official novel tls are also like that
But it's more understandable because they are novels and the flow would be weird if you add tl notes in the text
(but also, there are novels in other languages that got English translations, where context was added in the back of the book. Like French novels I've read. For example Some French words were left untranslated and explained further in the back of the book. Or in some cases left unexplained and you had to Google the deeper meaning)

I'm unsure why translators or the company behind them lost their trust in the readers capabilites of understanding subtext
Yes ofc we have way more new readers now than we had before, but they are also able to learn and expand their horizon, right?
And even if they don't understand, the community is huge now and there are more than a few who are willing to explain stuff in detail if needed

#webtoon #downtoearth

I think it's from 2010s, I'm pretty sure it was shoujo and tragedy genre.

It starts off with these three friends playing sports together on a sunny day, they're all wearing white tshirts and shorts. Two boys and one girl. The girl has brown hair tied back in a ponytail. One guy has orange hair and the other guy, who is shorter has dark purple/ blue hair and blue eyes. They're all having a great time and laughing together playing a sport (I think basketball). I think they were playing over summer before school term started. Then in the next chapter it gets really sad and the boy with the dark hair gets into an vehicle accident and dies. Leaving the two friends distraught, I don't remember much after that except they have to return to school and the friendship gets kind of ruptured with just the two of them now. There is a memorial at the school with the boy who passed away and his smiling picture arranged with flowers. The two friends, the girl and the boy with the orange hair are standing together (in the rain possibly) upset. There are both wearing a school uniform white shirts. Sorry that's all I can remember!

I’m a writer and creator gearing up for Season 2 of an ongoing webtoon canvas series and trying to figure out how to make the most of our art budget. Would love some advice from artists who’ve worked on webtoons or serialized comics!

Given we’ve made zero revenue so far 🫠 our budget is $30 per finished panel, including linework and color. Is it realistic to split that between two artists? One handling rough sketches and inking, and another handling coloring? If so, how would you divide the $30?

I’m also curious how artists prefer to be paid. Per panel, or a flat rate per episode (roughly 20–30 panels)?

Trying to find a setup that’s fair to the artists and sustainable for a small independent production. Would love to hear what you’ve found works, or what you’d expect to be paid for either role.

Thanks everyone!

I am just looking for a friend who might know about this comic and you can find it on Webtoon!

I've been reading this webtoon for a few years now. When I first started reading it, I really enjoyed the art style and the opening of the story. However, as the plot developed, it became a blur of unfinished storylines. The constant introduction of new issues and subplots made the story increasingly confusing to follow, with many of these segments feeling unnecessary to the main plot.

My second issue is how questionable Kade and Zayda's relationship feels on the surface. Sure, it's cute: a guy struggling with his mental health meets a beautiful, curvy, skinny alien girl who falls from the heavens and fixes all his problems. However, we already know that Zayda has been sheltered for her entire life. Kade is the only man with whom she has developed this kind of intimate connection, and she has spent the majority of her time on Earth in his dingy apartment. As a result, she has had little opportunity to develop meaningful relationships with other humans, particularly romantic ones. This makes their relationship feel somewhat forced, as though two people have simply been placed in a room together and expected to fall in love.

My third and final issue concerns the unanswered questions surrounding Zayda's importance to her planet. Why are they so desperate to get her back? Why did she suddenly grow horns? So far, these developments seem to serve little purpose beyond introducing unnecessary conflict to keep readers engaged. Furthermore, we know very little about her species' reproductive biology, which raises additional questions about their physiology and world-building. I acknowledge that the webtoon is still ongoing and will probably continue for a long time. Nevertheless, I feel that, as readers, we should have received at least some answers to these questions by now.

I find it chaotic and funny when the male lead is good friends or even has a crush on someone (can be male or female) and that person likes or is friends with the female lead which makes the male lead annoyed and he is bitchy with the female lead because of it. Manga reccomendations are great too but would love webtoon more please😙😙.

Examples

Deborah ga rival (deborah is gay and likes takumi? Who crushes on the asayo which annoys deborah lol)

Cardcaptor sakura (sakura and syaoran wanting yukito's attention is funny)

This Fall Season About to be a Massive Celebration for MANHWA FANS!!

Two Fan-favourite Manhwas are making their Long Awaited SEASON RETURNS!!

// DAMN REINCARNATION

After a LONG hiatus, it's finally coming back this fall!! The author's latest update reportedly points to the release date being confirmed 👀 We're just waiting for the official announcement to make it all REAL!!

// OMNISCIENT READER'S VIEWPOINT

We didn't Even have to wait that long!! Season 01 ended May this year, and ORV is already coming back in the same year!! THAT'S A MASSIVE WIN FOR US!!

THIS FALL BELONGS TO MANHWA FANS!!

(From the author of Muse Of Fame. Although, I haven't read that.)

This manhwa is EXACTLY what I needed as of late.

I was sceptical at first because of the many emotional clashes of the characters in the early chapters, but I stuck by because I was curious about the intentions that were foreshadowed.

That, and the characters are hot. Heh.

It is a well-written smut if you may call it.

Jus complicated characters in a complicated storyline. (Complicated jus for the name-sake because personally I found it simple to follow and enjoy.)

As the story progressed, it got me hooked. I liked the writing very much. The art as well.

I want more authors to make stories about problematic/complex/uncomfortable themes. We're lowkey deprived of it. Although, it requires risk.

To not be restricted by the moral principles of reality is what I praise fiction for.

It being erotica (believable) was what had me SEATED. Right on the cuck chair was I.

However, no justifications or moral compassing over here. Please. 🙏🏻 Something that is not new apparently.

I really hope the author isn't forced to hold back on the so-called "problematic" events because of the general audience who jus spits “they need therapy” or “nooo why is he this way” or “red flag red flag” at every opportunity they get. Lame ass.

Trust me, such comments are so unfunny, repetitive, unpleasant, and off-putting, which contributes absolutely no shit to the conversation.

And somehow they're the ones getting top comments for the same recycled thoughts on every individual chapter.

Ugh.

Almost like a circus you're forced to watch.

If this sort of story and themes aren't to your liking, please drop it.

The signs to what the story is about are almost always 99% there from the very beginning itself, yet I find people deep into the story spitting their usual "green-flag deprived" bs in the comment sections.

Sigh, I had to vent it out because I was lacking people who I could share my love for this story with.

Anywho, I'm adding this to my reading. I have high hopes for it.

It's sooo of my taste. ❤️‍🔥

Im new to webtoons so i would like your help please. Started reading the warriors ballad due to watching a YouTube clip about it, I really enjoy it so far. I'm open to most recommendations. Topics I'm interested in are revenge, action, sci-fi, fantasy, comedy or stories about people being weak and getting strong or an underdog story. I also enjoy stories where someone is secretly strong but people think they are weak or underestimate them. will try others if you think it's worth it. Not interested in slice of life or romance. I'm not opposed to violence and gore either. Thanks!!

​"I notice a lot of people discussing their favorite Webtoon Originals, but what about Canvas? Personally, I've come across so many Canvas series that blow the repetitive, copy-paste Originals out of the water. That said, the art quality on Canvas can sometimes be hit-or-miss, so I'm curious to hear everyone's thoughts.

​(Creators, please refrain from self-promoting! I know we all view our own stories as the best in the world—I feel the exact same way about mine—but let's keep this focused on general recommendations and a great discussion!)

Name: I Dare You

Been hearing readers saying that Jaemin is being an unnecessary contribution to the story, but I disagree. He has always been relevant from the start. He's handsome too. Anyways, a pretty good series.

I dont know where the terms are despite re-logging into the website on my laptop, some told me that if you re logged in the website through your pc, it automatically registers you to the "WEBTOON account" transfer but I dont trust that notion one bit until I find out where the prompt for the stinking terms are
