Discussion Which webtoons you would never recommend at all and why?

Post image

Hi, it's me again, the same person who asked for recommendations after being out of webtoon scene for more than a year. Thank you so much for all the recs, I'm sure there are a lot of gems there, and I'll make sure to check them out!

But now I'm curious about the opposite, un-recommendations (is this a thing?). Ever since I used to have more than 10 ongoing ones on my list for each day of the week, I remember I came across a lot of things that it's better to remain forgotten lel, and I bet there are still a lot of these to this day. So, if you could warn me about any webtoon to stay away from, which one would it be, and why do you dislike it?

You can give me any reasoning, like the characters suck, the plot goes nowhere or somewhere you didn't like, or it declines, you never got used to the art, it shows things in a good light that definitely shouldn't be shown as such, the author uses it to fund something problematic, it uses ai, it was never finished, or even if just because the second ML didn't win. Feel free to use this post as your personal vent space if needed haha.

Remember any comments here are based in opinion! So let's stay civil even if someone mentions a webtoon you like, and please never say something that could get you a ban (it goes for the commenters too!). Thank you in advance!

Blood Reverie. the first part was interesting i guess, with unique looking characters. but then at the second part the art gets weird, they start using obvious AI and everyone looks like less sexy versions of themselves. i did finish it but at the end was just like “okay…”

I was going to write the same thing. I really really enjoyed lifelights first webtoon “My Dear Cold-Blooded King” and was soo excited when I saw her making a new one, but it was truly a let down. I do actually like her intrigue and mysterious plots but in this one it was just confusing. She never really explained anything and just added more and more side plots to the story. And then she started using AI … I only finished reading it once it was completed just for the sake of being done, but man what a letdown :(

Ah, can you spoil me please? I only read the first season and I do keep looking at it thinking should I read it? But then, I'm like I really can't be asked! 😅
