Heya ! i was wondering if you have a list of the webtoons you read/stuff you like that you would recommend
Hey there! I did a post on that a while ago, but I can't find it (more like I was too lazy to look for it properly) so I'll try to replicate it and add a few more things, I'd like this to be a master post that I'll be updating frequently. It's also a good opportunity to put more effort into it lmao. The old one was a lazy post. I have some recs for those who follow me for BNHA and Eldarya, in case you wanna check this out.

As I said on that other post, I haven't been reading many new webtoons lately. In fact, I'm many chapters behind on those that I used to read religiously, so I'm sorry if I'm not helpful lol.
On another note, all of the rankings here are personal, obviously.
1. UNHOLY BLOOD
ACTION | FANTASY
5/5⭐
"When vampires destroy her chance to have the normal life she’s always wanted, Hayan is forced to draw on her darkest secret to rid the world of the merciless hunters that took it over 10 years ago. With the support of a rising star in the local police force, Hayan steps up to protect her loved ones, face her past, and get her revenge."
*HURRY!! this series will become a daily pass series in about a month!! You are running out of time
I talk about it with more details on this post.
My all time favorite without a doubt. I won't lie to you, the ending was rushed, BUT it didn't make the webtoon less awesome. Everything about it is fire, and it's a quick read.
In a nutshell, the story is set in a world where vampires exist and everyone knows of them, and they are the country's biggest threat. (I was traumatized by twilight whenever it came to vampire stuff, but this is art) Out main character, however, is a vampire herself, and an incredibly strong one at that. Certain event forces her to seek vengance on the vampire leaders who do as they please with the country in aspects like pharmaceutics, politics, entertainment, etc.
Something I mentioned before, is that there are a lot of incredible biblical references. For example, each vampire leader has an Alias referencing one of the demons of each deathly sin, and this, of course, describes their motivations. For example, Lucian, a reference to Lucifer, and the character's main characteristic is that he's incredibly proud. This is probably the coolest thing about the series to me, the amount of symbolism. The protagonist also has a lot of characteristics that place her as a reference to Jesus, the "savior."
The webtoon has romance, shocking plotwists, and an amazing art. But because I know some of you guys are like me, I feel the need to point out that there are also lots of hot characters.
Here, take a look:
2. UNORDINARY
ACTION
4/5⭐
"Nobody paid much attention to John – just a normal teenager at a high school where the social elite happen to possess unthinkable powers and abilities. But John’s got a secret past that threatens to bring down the school’s whole social order – and much more. Fulfilling his destiny won’t be easy though, because there are battles, frenemies and deadly conspiracies around every corner."
Alright, this one is veeeery well known, I know. Still, for those who don't read webtoons, this one is a good start, especially if you are a BNHA fan.
Basically, the series is set in a society where people have special abilities. These abilities are ranked depending on how strong they are, and that'll also affect how you are treated, and your place in society.
What I really like about this one is that it does what we all want BNHA to do. It actually shows us how fucked up a society where people have abilities can be. What's very interesting is that they don't have the need to portray this by using heroes, in fact, there are no heroes here. There are a couple of vigilantes that are not well seen by people, though.
In this story, the authorities make the role that heroes have in BNHA. They are who people should trust, but instead are fucking corrupt. Of course, there are characters who actually want to do things right. I also really like how emphasized social hierarchy is. To the point where people are literally labeled with a number that decides how worthy they are, and how much respect they deserve.
3. SUB ZERO
ROMANCE | ACTION
3.5/5⭐
"What would you sacrifice to save your family? How far would you go to protect your people? For Clove, the last princess of a near-extinct Dragon clan, the answer is the unthinkable: MARRY your greatest sworn enemy in an effort to bring peace to your land."
This one is A GREAT pick if you are into Eldarya, and if you are into Lance.
I won't lie to you, this is one of the series that I haven't been keeping up with, but definitely not becase I don't like it. I just don't have time. We follow Clove's story, the princess of an ancient dragon clan, who sees herself forced to marry the prince of the enemy dragon clan for the sake of her people. THIS IS AN ENEMIES TO LOVERS! If you are too picky, you might consider it as rivals to lovers, but I don't think that's the case. For all of us who were expecting that kinda trope for Lance and Erika, this is it. The male protagonist is a bitch, but kind on the inside, just the way we like it. I really like this romance, I feel like it was well constructed and veeery entertaining, it's hard to stop reading. As I said, I'm some chapters behind, so I don't know if that might've changed, but I don't think so. Quite a spicy story.
4. VILLAIN TO KILL
ACTION
4.5/5⭐
"There are two kinds of people with special abilities: villains, who are driven by their evil desires, and psykers, who pursue justice and work against villains. Cassian Lee is a very powerful psyker with a good heart. But one day, when he visits his friend in Greece, things take a wrong turn. Following an unexpected chain of events, Cassian ends up in the body of a Korean high school boy... who has just become a villain! Will his sense of justice win in the end or will he end up becoming a cold-blooded villain?"
This one, this one, this one!!! Another GREAT pick for BNHA fans. This is set in a world where you can be born as a child of the sun or a child of darkness. You don't get to choose, and this will determine if you turn into a hero or a villain. We follow Cassian's story. He's a professional psyker (hero) who sees himself betrayed by the company that's supposed to manage psykers; and when I say betrayed, I mean he was literally murdered by them. However, certain factor leads him to revive... In the body of a villain. This makes him realize that the psykers who he admired so much, are a bunch of rats, and the villains he had been thought to hate his whole life, aren't that bad after all. He wants revenge. Revenge against those who lied to him and killed him. We'll have to see him fight his now natural instinct to be the bad guy and stay true to himself, while we also see him become more and more familiar with being a villain rather than a psyker. This is a great story to show us that not everything is black and white. I really recommend it.
5. THE WARRIOR RETURNS
ACTION
3.5/5⭐
"After saving one world, warrior Minsu Kim returns to Earth only to find that he’s lost everything... so he decides to destroy the world he used to call home. In his rampage, he kills teenager Jeongsu Park and his family. But instead of dying normally, Jeongsu is transported to another world, where he finds that he's now a warrior himself. After killing the demon king of this alternate world and honing his skills as a warrior, Jeongsu returns to earth, hell-bent on revenge against Minsu. As the two warriors fight with the fate of their country in the balance, who will emerge victorious?"
This one is a new one, it only has 18 chapters as of now, but it's pretty damn awesome. If you already read Unholy Blood and liked it, this series is just for you. It has a very similar dynamic when it comes to the antagonists. The main character has to defeat them one by one. We follow the story of two characters, the protagonist, and the antagonist. The series begins with the antagonist's story, when, one day, he just happens to appear in an alternate universe where the one who defeats the demon king, will br deemed a hero and go home. And he does. Except that when he gets back home, everything is a mess and his life falls appart. That's when he goes on a maniac rampage and turns the world into an apocalyptic disaster.This disaster ends up killing the protagonist's family, and himself. Except that when he wakes up, he's not death, he's in the world the antagonist had gone to, and also happens to kill the demon king and become a hero. When he gets back to his world, his only mission is to kill the man who killed his family, but he'll have to fight many other warriors who also went trough this alternate world before getting to the main villain.
6. DEVIL NUMBER 4
ROMANCE / SUPERNATURAL
4/5⭐
"When a down-on-her-luck student runs out of money -- and hope -- it’s time for the devil to make his entrance and give her an offer she can’t refuse. But this devil has problems of his own. He’s a cog in Satan’s corporate ladder, who’s quickly losing credibility because that same desperate girl isn’t ready to part with her soul willingly. Now, she’s working at his coffee shop while he tries to convince her that she can have it all. And the cost? Merely her mortal soul…"
Here, we follow Hanna's story. Her life is not ideal, she has lots of money issues and not many people to rely on. The perfect target for a devil who wants to make a deal. That's where we meet an enchanting devil who will offer her a better life in exchange for her soul. While she's not interested at first, she ends up signing anyway, and the devil is as happy as one can be... Until her time starts to run out and he realizes that he fell in love with her. What a weird thing, in a world where devils are said to be unable to feel anything for anyone.In a world with devils, angels, a god and satan, it's hard to get bored. I truly recommend it.
7. PURPLE HYACINTH
MYSTERY
4/5⭐
"Her ability to detect lies has made her an outstanding officer of the law – despite being haunted by her inability to save the ones she loved from a gruesome fate many years ago. Now, she uses her powerful gift to defend the defenseless at any cost – even if it means teaming up with a deadly assassin to fight evil in a world gone mad."
I'm only halfway through the series. However, I love it. In this story, we follow a police officer who has the ability to detect lies. She has a strong sense of rightness, and wants to make the world a better place... Even if it means betraying her team and make a deal with one of the most dangerous criminals in the city to get to her goal. It has a lot of tension, mistery and I would recommend it to any of my fellow criminal minds fans. Or anyone who happens to love police themed series and true crime, really.
8. OMNISCIENT READER
See a pic here
ACTION
⭐- coming soon
"Dokja was an average office worker whose sole interest was reading his favorite web novel 'Three Ways to Survive the Apocalypse.' But when the novel suddenly becomes reality, he is the only person who knows how the world will end. Armed with this realization, Dokja uses his understanding to change the course of the story, and the world, as he knows it."
Now, this one is very popular as well, but it's deserved. I started reading it a while ago, and only went back to it last night. I'm still very far behind since it's a long series, still, what I've read so far it's great. It has an amazing art style, and an amazing premise. I can't say much for now, but i'll definitely update this as I continue reading the series.
9. GET SCHOOLED
See a pic here
DRAMA
3/5⭐
"Hwajin Na’s teaching techniques are pretty violent for someone who works in the Ministry of Education. That being said, when punishments don't seem to work on even the worst of school bullies, there is no better man for the job. Sometimes you can’t get a good education until those bullies are taught a lesson."
If I'm honest with you, nothing here makes sense, but I like it. It's set in a worls where teacher's used to be allowed to hit students until recently. When hat changed, students began to be assholes to teachers, to the point where a student murdered a teacher. This event caused the foundation of the TRPA, an agency made to put students in their place, and they are more than allowed to hit them. Our main character is one of the agents working for the TRPA, and the series is based on him beating the shit out of annoying kids. It's actually pretty entertaining, especially since the cases he has to deal with are pretty serious. It's a new series, but worth a read. You'll like it if you are a Shouta Aizawa fan. The MC resembles him in personality and physically.
10. UNLOVABLE REPLACEMENT
See a pic here
ROMANCE
3.5/5⭐
"When his relationship went down the drain, Chiko Dyer started to develop a weird relationship with a local delivery girl."
You'll love it if you are an I love Yoo fan, especially if you love Nol. Our main character ends up meeting a rich kid as she delivers him a pizza. This rich kid is going through a hard breakup, and asks her to pretend being her girlfriend in front of her ex, the only reason she accepts, is because he offers to pay and she needs the money.I don't think I have to disclose what happens after that, right? Our male main character has a loooot of similitudes with Yeong Gi/Nol, so I think many of you will enjoy it.
AS FOR VERY POPULAR SERIES I ENJOY:
Let's play - Charles. (3.5/5)
The remarried empress - I just love women who put men in their place. (3/5)
I love Yoo - Cult classic. I love it. (4/5)
Cursed Princess Club - Very sweet and great if you have trouble with self worth. (4.5/5)
Men of the Harem - It's a weird concept, but I have fun with it. (3/5)
Edith - Very far behind, BUT I love the art style.
Age Matters - I couldn't care less for the main couple during the last season, I only finished it for the secondary characters, tbh. (3/5)
My dear cold blooded king - hated the last season, but the beginning was great. (2.5/5)
Lore Olympus - Got tired of it like 80 chapters ago, sorry. I do want to read it again, though. (3/5)
True Beauty - It has it's good moments, but the MC started to piss me off at some point. (2.5/5)
NOT SO WELL KNOWN SERIES (I think) I GAVE A SHOT RECENTLY
Devilish Romance - great to forget that you miss Devil number 4. (3/5)
Brimstone and Roses - Interesting concept and a fun read. (3/5)
The make up Remover - It gives me cursed princesses vibes. I like it. (3/5)
Like wind on a dry branch - I love many things about it and dislike many other things. (3.5/5)
Zero Game - Great for those who love videogames, I think. The only issue is that it's hard to keep up with it because they give you too much information with each chapter. (4/5)
Please, please, pleaseee add your own recs, guys!!! I'd also like to hear them. It would be lovely if you'd add more to any of the series I mentioned as well.
