I've been reading The S Classes That I Raised, and I think it's the first time I've seen a harem style found family lmao. It's basically like if Reigen from Mob Psycho 100 could turn other people into psychics, mixed with pokemon, but the Pokemon are people that the main character is adopting.

Webtoon Review: Operation: True Love

Synopsis:

It’s hard dating someone who won’t give you the time of day. Su-ae Shim knows that better than anyone, having dated her indifferent boyfriend, Minu Kang, for years. She sometimes wishes she could be more like her charismatic stepsister, Ra-im, who seems to have it all. But life takes a turn for the weird when Su-ae discovers Jellypop, a sentient flip phone, in her locker. Jellypop has a lot to say about her love life, especially as Su-ae drifts further away from Minu and finds herself running into Minu’s friend, Eunhyeok. Add to the mix a growing suspicion that Minu and Ra-im might be more than friends, and Su-ae might need a miracle to navigate the ups and downs of high school romance!

CHAPTER 1-27 Review

I first stumbled upon this web comic on Webtoon. My interest was piqued the moment I laid my eyes upon the cover art because the artstyle is totally my type.

The story starts off in quite an interesting note. The female lead, Su-ae, is in possession of a device where she can see how much love a person will receive and give in their lifetime. If you watched Death Note, she kinda has shinigami eyes but with a cupid filter.

The problem is, she can also see her own love meters but to her shock and confusion, both the love she will receive and give in her lifetime is 0.

The premise is very intriguing and promising and the art is absolutely, a solid 10/10, however, the characters are very unlikeable and the story telling is a bit all over the place.

This comic is full of tea, like, there's cheating, jealousy, betrayal, scheming.  The drama in its tag is that kind of drama.

The characters just do a lot of questionable and dumb things that make either my blood boil, my head hurt or make me go "wtf?"

Spoiler warning, the female lead is very frustrating because she tolerates her emotionally abusive boyfriend too much. I mean yes I get it, they've been in a long-term relationship and it is hard to let that go but girl, think twice if everyone around you is saying your boyfriend is shit and you need to break up with him. Literally the whole school is aware of their toxic relationship and she still refuses to listeeeen.

It's such a headache when she still manages to forgive him even though he's a straight up asshole. SHE EVEN FORGAVE HIM DESPITE CHEATING ON HER WITH HER OWN BEST FRIEND/SISTER.

I---I am just loss with words.

When she FINALLY broke it up with his boyfriend (now ex), this is where she and the other male lead (EunHyuk) got closer to each other. He is a sweetheart but he's quite rude to her sometimes so I'm a bit neutral about him. Then when it seems like Eunhyuk is developing feelings for her, do you know what Su-ae does?? SHE GOT BACK WITH HER EX.

LIKE???? GIRL WHAT???

She got back with him because her then 0 heart stats suddenly increased because her ex got jealous of her and Eunhyuk's closeness. She then realized that whenever her ex gets jealous, her hearts increases AND THEREFORE, she cooked up a plan to have an affair with Eunhyuk to make her ex more jealous and thus, increase her hearts.

And at this point in the story I was SO done with her. WHY 👏 ARE 👏 YOU 👏USING 👏EUNHYUK. I am just so mad and frustrated that I gave up reading this comic and went on to rant about it to my boyfriend.

The supernatural stuff was interesting but it was overshadowed by the drama that its introduction was kinda awkward and out of place. Latest chapters were very confusing that it felt like I skipped some chapters when I didn't.

Overall, first few chapters were okay but it gets more and more annoying as you read it. It's an ongoing series but will I continue reading it? Probably not.

Rebirth webtoon thoughts

I decided to re-read a few episodes [episodes 88-92] after reading the newly-released season 3 primiere, and here's what caught my attention.

In these episodes, Li's backstory — how she became who she is now; how she became loyal to Noah Collins — was shown to us readers.

Then we are introduced to this woman.

Now, here's what's interesting. This woman is most likely related to one of the secondary characters.

Do you know the other one who has "Blanche" for a last name? This girl down here:

The Blanche family produces the best hitmen and bodyguards, and as a possible family member, Alix — in no doubt — has been trained since childhood.

Bonus pic from episode where she was introduced:

The photo above got me thinking that maybe Li and Alix (possibly Noah too) have met before.

I’ve been reading this webtoon called Coffin jackson, and Jacob is by far my favourite character.

Yumi’s cells thoughts 💭

- Art is so cute reminds me of newspaper comics :)

- The characters feel very relatable and they’re so fun to read about, normally I would find an office slice of life romance thing like this boring but man those cells. They make you care

- Speakinf of CELLS. THEYRE RHE BEST.

- They’re so creative!!!!! The ideas!! It’s like Inside Out but also different too!

- Hunger cell is so real

- I honestly don’t have anything negative to say about this comic lol. What can I say Inside Out is like my fave movie so no doubt I’d like this comic lol

- It is pretty long but it doesn’t feel like it’s dragging too much

- Somehow it makes even misunderstandings fun to read??

- THE CREATOR FEATURES FANART IN THE BACKGROUND LOL ITS GREAT

- I guess if I had one negative to say I wish the cells were a little more unique looking for each person?? But that’s more of a nitpick than anything

- read YC if you haven’t!
