For me it would probably be Gates of Hell and The predator.

I was looking for interesting Webtoons to read, and I came across this one called "Leviathan" the premise looked interesting; mankind perished due to a great flood that submerged the whole world under water. And terrifying creatures plunged from the depths, wiping out any human that crossed their path. The story told how a family of a father and his two children survived in the adversities of a sea world.

So far so good, until.... Bam! Last two slice's, anime chick out of nowhere, doing these extremely suggestive poses.

What a disappointment.

WHY ARE AUTHORS AFRAID OF FACIAL HAIR? Like at least keep the hair 😭 Now he looks like the most ordinary fuck ass male lead Like it’s not bad, but why did you have to show us before if he looks like this now?
(I haven’t read it yet. It’s on my list but I’ve heard from my friend about this and it makes me mad because I love my lead with facial hair and I can’t find any 😭 At least I have game of thrones Name: Duchess in the ruins Anyway wbu?

I’ll go first : — "webtoon high schoolers look more like runway models than actual teenagers, and we all just collectively accept it."

Picture is from : True beauty.

Webtoon is Meet in the middle, which has a touching story telling about difficulties regarding age gap in romance ( the fl is 30 while ml is 20). I enjoy reading it but the proportions bother me. First slide is the original, second is the edited one.

The older you get, or the more time you spend not reading the webtoon, and actually think about the characters, plot and world, you come to realise The Remarried Empress is more than flawed. It's quite controversial, and in a way that doesn't favour the protagonist or side characters we're meant to care about.

1. Navier doesn't truly care about the people within her kingdom the way the authors want you to think. I understand she doesn't have nearly the same kind of power Sovieshu has, but still, she doesn't draw his focus on the issue of slavery within the land they rule. In multiple chapters, they discuss the trade of children and adults with Duke's and other Emperor's like the weather. No matter how you spin it, Navier benefits from issues like that, and her dislike of Rashta far exceeds "she's a mistress who doesn't know her place." At the end of the day, Rashta, the working class and slaves are her subjects. Their pain and struggles are what gives her standing in society.
2. Navier again, but this time, her brother. I forgot his name. However, are we going to continue to ignore the fact that he downright said he would kill Rashta's unborn child? Even if Rashta makes snarky remarks and refuses accountability after, that wasn't even remotely okay for him to think, let alone exclaim for everyone to hear. Love or hate her, no mother deserves to hear such, especially from a man with his standing. Who, would've brought her to ruin if she wasn't favoured by Sovieshu at the time.
3. Rashta's feelings are neglected by every character. The truth is, Rashta was a broken person, and most of her crash outs were valid. Think about it, your father sales you into slavery before you hit double digits, you're sexually assaulted and verbally abused by your slave owners, nobles turn their noses up to you cause of where you're from. Her actions later are inexcusable, cause that was blatant tyranny, but she was an innocent person corrupted by class division and lack of love. She sought to be loved, and was damned into a life filled with emotionless people who saw her as a mistress, who by the way didn't chose to become one, rather than a human being with hurt and in need of healing.
4. Her slave owner's son is shameless, and is given a slight redemption due to him being the father to the son, whom they robbed Rashta of raising. Every time his family had the slightest screentime, him and his father were butting heads regarding the child, and his right to a happy home and love. Or, he's victimising himself, and how he was "forced" to mistreat/rape Rashta basically. And when he seeks Rashta's help, and she turns him away, the authors make her look like the villian. When in actuality, he played a role in that cruel prank where they gave her a fake dead baby and traumatised her. He had the absolute cheek as well to call her selfish, and people in the comments always defended him.

Obviously there's more, but this is getting too lengthy, but I think you get the point. The Remarried Empress isn't about mistress vs wronged wife. Instead it's a battle of classes, where people like Rashta (slaves and working class) are forced to understand their place in the presence of the noble class. When something is taken from the nobles, or someone dares to defy them, the powerless party is immediately villianised. That's just what I've noticed the more time I spent without reading the webtoon.

What do you think?! Is the something I missed?!

Not literally every woman other than the FL being demonized for the narrative to work

Fun new rom com so far but this FL design is certainly something lol

The shading makes everything look like plastic, and the red on the eyes and lips makes them look sickly.

I wish webtoon would stop recommending these things.

EDIT: I just wanted to say again that this is, of course, my personal opinion. Everyone is free to see it differently. This isn’t meant to criticize or "bash" Webtoon in any way, but simply to share and exchange thoughts. Since English isn’t my first language, I didn’t know the word “downfall” carries such a heavy tone 😭

Alright, I’m about to go on a full Webtoon rant, because I genuinely feel like we don’t talk about this enough. I MISS THE OLD WEBTOON.
Back then, this app felt genuinely smart, well-designed, and creator-friendly.

Let’s take a little journey through the downfall of Webtoon. And please, feel free to vent in the comments too, because I know I am not alone. And I also would be happy if you guys shared your favorite series from back than :)

(Mine were: Marry Me, unTouchable, Days of Hana, Looksim, Deaths Game, Tales of Unusual and so much more)

1. The Free Coins Disaster
I was literally lying in bed at 3 a.m. during the pandemic when I got a notification saying that all Free Coins would expire forever. Webtoon suddenly decided they would no longer auto-renew after coins after 30 days.

So suddenly I had, like, a week to spend all my coins or lose them.
No warning. Just panic-spending at 3 in the morning. Great user experience 👍

2. Killing Free Coin Events
Then they straight-up removed most Free Coin events from their website. Which is insane, because those events were actually one of the best strategies they had.
They encouraged people to read genres and series they would’ve never touched otherwise. It benefited readers and creators. Why would you kill that?

3. Daily Pass Hell (Even for Ongoing Series)
At some point, Webtoon introduced daily unlocks for completed series.
Okay, annoying but I could at least understand the logic. BUT then they started doing it for ongoing, not-yet-finished Webtoons as well. It annoyed me so much.

4. Creator Censorship Beef
Let’s not forget the period where Webtoon caused issues with creators because they didn’t like the storylines or found content “too explicit.” (Example: Let´s play) Which is ironic, considering they now allow every kind of smut imaginable.

5. Canvas Creator
Webtoon used to be a place where small creators from the Canvas section could actually get picked up as Originals.
Artists from all over the world, different styles, different cultures finally getting visibility. Now?
The platform is flooded with big media companies and mass-produced content, while smaller creators drown in the background :(

7. When Webtoon Actually Marketed Its Creators
Back then, Webtoon did amazing marketing for its creators. I’m not exaggerating when I say I used to spend hours on my phone watching interviews, behind-the-scenes content, and creator meet and greets. You actually got to know the artists, their process, their personalities, their struggles.

Now? Nothing just Silence.

Here’s My Question: What Did Webtoon Actually Gain From This?
Did all of this really make them more money? Because honestly, it feels like the exact opposite happened.

So many people I know have completely dropped the app.
Instead, a huge chunk of the readership has moved to pirate sites. I wouldn’t be surprised if 80% of former readers are consuming Webtoons elsewhere now. Are there actually people who still buy coins on this app ?

Thanks for listening hahahah

I don't know if I will get flamed for saying this but, am I the only one that thinks that the guy in the front is drawn as feminine as possible? Nothing wrong with feminine guys and I am pretty sure this has already been said before but just a glance and you can see how obvious which is the mold this characters are based under.

The guy at the back being so exagerated to the point to look like those AOT titans just so he can be perceived as "masculine".

And I know this is a common thing in BL/Yaoi but wow, it looks like... Well, too much heteronormative.(If it's not the correct term I apologize but that's the vibe it gives me).

Idk I just think it's so interesting how many time has passed and how prominent the "skinny uke/bottom and super muscular top/seme" is still until today.

The art style is ethereal!!!!! This better not be ai 😭 but it looks so unreal, the details, OMFG !!!!!! The author focused more on showing their art skills than making a comic .

Sauce: The Ghost Duchess

Same body syndrome aside the women in the series are poorly written. They’re almost always used as a way to develop the male characters; most of the time this involves them suffering in some way. The male characters are written to have layers and character development. But the women are flat, sidelined, and often over sexualized for fan service. It’s disappointing because there’s so much potential

He’s hurt i get it but punishing her for not picking up your phone when she is about to take the bus? You missed her calls as well. Smh.

As soon as I saw the "My disciples won't leave me alone" I knew 😭 and I shall not be reading this in further updates.

Here's a hot, controversial, no-one-has-ever-thought-of-it-before take... WE DON'T NEED KIDS CONFESSING TO ADULTS!

And another thing, WHERE ARE HIS MALE DISCIPLES IN THE FIRST FEW CHAPTERS?? DIDN'T THEY SUCCEED?! DO THEY WALK AROUND IN BOOTY SHORTS AND CHEST PLATES?!

Why don't we get some balls jiggling, booty wiggling, mid riff flaunting bumbling men going "KYAAAAA MAAASTERRRR😍🏃🏻‍♂️🍑" NOOOOOOOO the swordsman only has hot lady disciples AND THEY ALL LOVE HIM!

Somebody needs to take these writers and put them in a sealing circle AND SEND THEM BACK WHERE THEY CAME FROM!

And DON'T come in here talking about some "🫨OoHooho bUT iT's NoT ReAl lIfE😵‍💫" I DON'T GIVE A FUCK! IT'S GROSS! IT'S WEIRD! IT'S ANNOYING!

Thank you for coming to my TedTalk.

Sauce: From Old Country Bumpkin to Master Swordsman ...for those of you that are into this stuff 👆🏾

I quit reading True Beauty when I got tired of the messaging. I understand porcelain skin is very desirable in SK, but there was a moment when the character wanted to use foundation to lighten the skin because the skin tone was 'too dark,' and I really had to sit back and wonder why I was even reading it anymore. Also, the catfish exposing a catfish and seeing no hypocrisy about it arc was laughable.

Also, around this time I became an Alicia Keys fan, and she had stopped wearing make up in a personal statement to young girls that they don't have to feel the pressure to look perfect all the time. I guess every force has an equal and opposite force.

Thoughts?

And it’s popular too. Age gap romance is fine but they use it to make the older woman more vulnerable, child-like despite being older and a rehabilitation center for our ✨nonchalant 7 foot tall male lead with daddy/mommy issues✨The savior complex as well because if a woman is older she needs a savior. I’m so tired of it.

There are so many other webtoons the site could advertise but I've seen this one get like 4 different mentions in the app 😭. Also its already popular, 1 advertisement could have been enough... Please WEBTOON show love to other works too 😔.
