I don't like WEBTOON.
I don't like their terrible youtube ads. I don't like their strictly enforced phone-formatted layouts. I don't like their extremely popular comics about People with severe emotional issues failing to be in a functional relationship that all seem to drag out to eternity.
I tried reading That one comic about The Greek Gods but they had their shit set up like modern times and The God of death was down bad for a 19 year old. I think the best way to describe that is a PG-13 Version of Beany Tuesday's bit about the least sexy porno on earth.
Then I tried reading that one that's constantly advertised on youtube about the guy who's not dating but totally dating an alien. Basically the exact same as the greek gods one except it kept drawing attention to the fact that it couldn't call a Nintendo a Nintendo.
Then I tried reading THE BOXER and holy shit I have a new favorite comic of all time. How the fuck did this end up on this site? Like 99 percent of the stuff on here is overwrought romances and plausibly deniably horny gag comics? HOW THE FUCK DID THIS HAPPEN?!?
I seriously can't say enough good things about it. I love how the art manages to consistently make two shirtless dudes throwing hands look so abstract and yet so real. I love how it the leadup to each round takes a deep dive into the opponent's life and motivations to give us an idea of why all these sweaty weirdos HAVE to march into a ring and get the shit beaten out of them for a screaming crowd. I love how, at the end of the main story it just drops all pretext in favor of full blown "I know writers who use subtext and they're all cowards." It's just a fucking great sports comic that's secretly a fucking great fight comic that genuinely moved me.
I don't think the TT public is gonna love it like I love it. Honestly I think a lot of you might hate it. But I loved it, and I needed to say it.
Use this thread to tell us the one thing on WEBTOON you didn't hate.
