Gosu - Best Martial Arts Manga Out

[Dwolf]

Eh, I have trouble with names when it comes to most Manwha. I called that main old bad guy from the Breaker "Old a$$hole" for the longest and called the main character "bytch-ass".

I tend to refer to them as titles but I could still break down their nuances pretty well.

You're gonna act like the story of the Ex-Murderer trying to learn how to be a decent salesman, bonding with the other salesman, finding out that they sold so good because they were terrified of his aura, and then him showing his strength to save his buddy only to see the family he saved look at him like a monster?

You see the development of his kids , you see his trust in the main Gosu, etc.

Aight

Aigh breh I made to chapter 23 and this man just rode a tsunami into battle

Some brehs bring a knife to a fight , better brehs bring a gun, you gotta be a special type of breh to bring a tsunami tho'.

And if Gha Woobok hadn't spotted him on some "Yo y'all kidnapped this poor dumb breh from the village too?! Threatening my kids wasn't enough?" then Gang Ryong was gonna crush the whole building up in Baekma Valley!

I marathoned the whole thing and caught up to the latest. His attacks and the artist art is just


His greatest/best fight has to be with that dude with his brothers persona. He gave him such a mean fade breh went from a wimp to beast.

Also I just learnt this manga is related to Yongbi. I remember the snake grandpa used to get clowned by the MC

I'll give this a read. Man God of Highschool got fukking ridiculous I don't see how people can still be reading that shyt.

The Monkey King is my favourite Eastern mythical figure so I appreciate all his stories. Goku, Monkey D Luffy etc. Except Mori is an outright monster. I love over the top battle series i.e Toriko

Korean stuff is cool, if the site you're reading it on has the option to make it all one page instead of having to turn multiple ones.


They crazy about their blank space for some reason.

Guess they think it builds drama. Annoying as shyt.

Breh improved his life on some 1 in a 10000 chance of survival type of surgery and then put him to sleep. MC has the right to be called Dr. Gosu after that fade.
And honestly I'm just glad Snake Grandpa didn't take an L in this manga too. I think that'd have been unprecedented for a character to be sonned in two different mangas.

You ain't neva lied.
The Breaker didn't have these issues, and it was a Korean manwha so I don't even understand.

Latest chapter is out. Be considered a "little accident" by the one you call your biggest rival brehs.

 

[Dre Space Age]

Finally over. That was a long ass fight.

I didn't wanna make a thread, but I KNOW you niccas sleeping. Time to wake up.

I've been looking for a good Martial Arts comic, so I'mma check it out.


But the way you hyped it, it better be better than or as good as what I've read before like
The Breaker 1 & 2

or Veritas

or Holyland

or Shamo

or Tough

or Vagabond

If it's not matching up to those in the first 10 chapters, prepare to eat this neg OP

Nah breh, Gosu is lit like a muhfah. It'll give you that feeling, believe that.

The Breaker was published in a manhwa magazine, so it's almost identical to Japanese manga. That's a different format than webcomics that are usually self-published. The Koreans love publishing their work in a long strip. First time I ran into it on "Noblesse", it tripped me up. But I'm used to it now. Prefer it, sometimes. When it's a one-page strip, the white space gives you the narrative breaks that a page-turn usually does.

Aight then

 

[Mr. Negative]

Holyland one of the unsung GOOOOAAAAATTTTS. I'ma rep you for even mentioning it, cause I swear it seemed like I was the only one here that read it.


It's actually one of those stories that I feel should be required reading once a certain personality type hits a certain age.

or Holyland

edit: and while Gosu may be good, in my opinion its a tier below everything you just mentioned.

I just found it searching under the martial arts + seinen tag of my favorite online readers.
Real talk, I didn't even want to start at first cuz the art seemed kinda weird to me.
And that first chapter had a real old school vibe...like action/thriller movies from the 90s. Which could go either way if you're old enough to remember.
But maaayne when that action started
It had that emotional appeal: a soft, sensitive nerd constantly getting his food ate by thugs
Then just like a nerd, reads a book about fighting and fantasizes about protecting himself/fighting back
But unlike a nerd, actually practices the technique he read about religiously until he perfects that ONE move
Then after a year of this crazy self-training, some random street nikka tries to pull up on blood and gets his shyt wrecked off that one technique
And so the story of the Thug-Hunter begins

PLUS the author studied all the fighting styles he put in there, so even though it's sloppy-ass streetfighting, every fight had a technical breakdown making you believe you could just hop out in the streets whooping ass with the knowledge he dropped.


It doesn't get the recognition it deserves

Shamo is one of the best manga I've EVER read. It's one of the few things that sticks with you much longer than most and it's probably because the fighting is tertiary to the characters.

It also manages to have one of the most reprehensible protagonists ever (Dude pulled one of the most fukked up moments I've ever seen a protagonist pull) but you also remember that the dude is a victim of the society he's put in.

right!? You'd think a story where a kid goes from soft, bullied nerd to having the nickname "Thug Hunter" on the streets through actual real life training and street fighting techniques would get more love.
