Scarra saying he’s only waited in a line for food is so me and real
33:38 "Devil fruit users not being able to swim is such a non factor"
Saying this the week One Piece decides it matters is hilarious
The bookclub is such a good idea. I will definitly partake
thank you peter and scarra for saving my life by uploading this morning, truly the best anime podcasters
Im suprised to see harigane service here😊
I LOVE WORM. Super suprised to see Scarra bring it up, also I’m sad he didn’t mention just how crazy the universe of Worm is, there’s alternates earths, powers that affect things in 4 dimensions, amazing antagonist like the slaughter house 9, there’s too much greatness in one series
I love Worm but man the finally arc confused me so much lol, especially since at that point, I actually caught up when it started and had to wait for each update after having binge read it all (and skipping the side stories which made it more confusing since apparently even more plot related stuff happened there like certain important characters and what actually the powers were lol).
I started reading worm because he mentioned it on stream once
Restaurant to Another World is my comfort anime that I love to watch at lunch time. I think it's more enjoyable in anime form than manga with the music, color, and animated reactions. I also find the world building very intriguing.
Wakakozake is another favorite food related anime of mine.
If you guys are looking for actually unique Murim Manhwa suggestions, I highly recommend Wild West Murim. First off, the artstyle is unique and not cookie cutter. Secondly, it is Murim but it leans more towards the Western genre, so it doesn't feel like other Murim Manhwas. It's actually set in the US after China started migrating towards it starting an era of exploration of sorts. It's a great blend of Murim and Western, I promise you guys won't be disappointed in it.
Great read
For food based, can I recommend Cinderella chef. It's a Chinese DongHua series about a professional chef that gets spirited to ancient China and has to live using her cooking skills. Animation is crazy good, food looks insanely good and...randomly...it's just got crazy combat animation. Comedy, reverse harem-esque (lots of cool dudes falling for her).
Only annoying thing is it's on crunchyroll but for some reason they only have season 3....but they don't tell you. You'll have to find S1 and s2 on RUclips.
also because i’m that guy, to explain some of the prince of tennis powers
the Tezuka Zone was the ability of the same guy who can make the ball roll towards the net, and was also “explained” by the sheer control and amount of spin he could put on the ball. he always hits the ball in such a way that with the amount and direction of spin it has, the ball will always curve either towards or away from him, but playing like that is so straining on his body that he injured his shoulder.
to explain the guy who takes your senses away, the idea was that he played tennis so perfectly that it actually made you doubt your own senses when you play against him, giving you the “Yips,” which in the series starts to take away your ability to feel, see, and hear to the point where you’re so paralyzed in fear. it’s all really silly but really entertaining lmao
I think that drop shot was called zero shiki drop shot
right so scientifically these guys are actual aliens
I was just coming here to say this lol
If you havent already I would recommend reading blue period. Its a story about a guy who falls in love with art, painting, drawing in highschool. The panels are amazing.
Love
we both already read it lol its pretty good
My favorite Manhwa that have already been mentioned include Omniscient Reader's Viewpoint, SSS-Class Suicide Hunter (both Library arcs have been fantastic), The Greatest Estate Developer (the faces!), Return of the Mount Hua Sect, Pick Me Up Infinite Gacha, and Reincarnation of the Suicidal Battle God.
Current Manhwa that I'm reading and enjoying immensely that have not been mentioned include:
Reaper of the Drifting Moon - A teenaged street urchin is kidnapped and placed into brutal training designed to turn him into a disposable assassin. When Pyo Wol is finally freed from his captor's control, he'll start his path of revenge against the people who took his life away from him. God tier art, a fairly straightforward story, a satisfying read.
Revenge of the Iron-Blooded Sword Hound - Vikir Baskerville spent his entire life as a hound of the family, doing their dirty work from the shadows. His loyalty was rewarded with betrayal and execution. After the guillotine fell he woke up in his infant body from the past. In this life he will not be his family's faithful hound, instead he will get strong enough to take revenge on the family that framed and killed him. Amazing art, a story with some depth, Season 1 is complete and now waiting on Season 2.
Star-Fostered Swordmaster - A young boy from the slums dreams of becoming a knight and leaving his destitute life behind. When an actual knight descends upon his world and destroys everything he holds dear, the only path Vlad of Shoara wants to take is that of revenge. He'll grow stronger, learn to use aura, become a knight, and kill the Knight of Blue Moonlight or die trying. Spectacular art, slight pacing problems, but enjoyable story. One of the few without the tropes of future-knowledge, game systems, streaming for sponsors, tower climbing, or hunters and gates.
Wild West Murim - In an alternate history, China settled into North America and the Wild West is full of danger, adventure, opportunity and martial arts. Jang Geon travels the new frontier relying on his own unique brand of martial arts to survive. At times you'll honestly forget that he's supposed to have reincarnated into this world from modern day Korea. A unique art style, a mixture of cowboys and murim tropes, some honestly fun action and storytelling. Season 1 is complete. Season 2 slated for a July return.
The Tutorial Is Too Hard - Lee Ho Jae is a former pro gamer who retired early and now lives a life full of boredom. When a window appeared before his eyes inviting him to a tutorial world and asking him to pick a difficulty, the gamer in him picked the hardest difficulty, Hell. Now he's stuck in a ridiculous tower that will kill him if he makes a mistake and the only way back home is to get to the top. The art is good, and the story will sometimes shift time frames without warning, but the story has stakes and the character growth is fairly realistic.
The World After The End - From the author of ORV, a tower appeared in the world, heralding the fall of humanity. A notification gave the world a chance to stop armageddon, people simply had to challenge the tower and make it to the top. One by one people fell by the wayside until Jaehwan reached the top of the tower alone. What he finds there may shatter his world. God tier art, interesting ensemble cast, a slightly convoluted story but with viscerally satisfying moments.
Enoch: Shining Tree - At only 6 chapters, this new offering has made quite an impression on me. A witch's dying curse forces all those wearing armor to become restless, undying, wanderers who slowly go mad from an eternity of suffering. A young teen named Coal lives a simple life with his mother and father until one of these armored monsters appears before him, killing his parents and fatally wounding him. Only the timely intervention of some strange passersby prevent his death. Now Coal will spend the rest of his life finding out how to kill the thing that killed his family. The art has a striking quality to it that I can't quite describe. The story and world are interesting and I look forward to learning more.
I love Isekai Doctor, this is the first place I found that's talking about it! Great rec Scarra!
About Gacha mechanics in Korean Manhwa: Aside from Pick Me Up we also have SSS-class Gacha Hunter that basically has the Gates/Dungeons appearing in the real world Hunters concept but the main character channels historical figures through Gacha
But I have to say Pick me up is very interesting so far. We have some extra storylines in the background like the original universe our main character was taking care off looking for him, developing the world and advancing the tower level & the mentality of the characters.
Thank you for recommending 'how to grill our love'! I just started reading it and it's so wholesome
Would love a segment or episode of "show & tell" where you show off pieces from your anime collections or whatever
I recommend Knight Run! Translation can be rough but the sci-fi setting and fight scenes are incredible
Love this duo!
dude I remember a long while back scarra saying he wanted to be better at styling his fits and seeing him flourish today is awesome.
If you guys ever do a JJK or CSM centered episode I'd love to come on :) the vibes are immaculate here.
Scarra talking about Worm is a mind blown moment
Have you checked out The Greatest Estate Developer one of my favorite manhwa. The main character Lloyd does some of the greatest and funniest things I have seen an a pretty great story.
I feel Peter's rage here lol. after watching from me to you, I was so frustrated, almost to the point of disgust.
Love the pod! Will recommend "Nano Machine" and "Leveling With The Gods"
If you like Nano Machine check out "Return of the Mount Hua Sect" art is at the same quality!
Yes! Cooking Master Boy and Mister Ajiko are both the reason why i loved cook8ng as a kid! In elementary school I even made crab meat cutlet inside the crabshells with a side of crab and corn with feathered egg soup from leftover crabshells.
love the book club. I read both of the recs and they were not what i was expecting.
i was expecting Centuria to be more like Vinland Saga vibe and not have actual monsters.
For Tower Dungeon I was skeptical if i was gonna like it on the first half of ch 1 but by the end i'm glad i started it.
Five recommendations, some of which you probably have already heard of or tried reading and one that only has 6 chapters so far. I hope you both give them a look over or for anyone else interested in some things to read.
1) Dungeon Odyssey (86 chs) - I see a lot of comments recommending this one but here's why I think it's such a nice read, the source material is actually one of the most generic power fantasy novels that I've had the misfortune of going through. This adaptation makes it have so much more characterization and charm with its unique art and changes to the story.
2) Hand Jumper (62 chs) - Webtoon that's about someone who can go back 1 minute in time and has to use that to beat people who have way stronger powers than her. Also a female MC who feels well written and isn't a damsel in distress. She's in distress but that's just because her situation is awful.
3) Enoch: The Shining Tree (6 Chs) - I love the high fantasy setting and how the magic system seems based in witchcraft and curses. It's just the beginning so it can easily fall off but it gives me Ember Knight vibes.
4) Shashin (also known as Death God, 63 chs) - This is a rare wuxia and not a xianxia about an assassin forming an assassin's sect. It was interesting to see a much more grounded martial arts manwha that doesn't have people slicing through buildings.
5) Ending Maker (67 chs) - The top two players of a RPG game get dropped into that world and work together to clear it. I like it because the two have a very cute dynamic and yes it's a romance.
A manhwa I've been really into is "solo farming in the tower". It's the usual tower appears in the world and people awaken trope, but with a fun twist. Around 60 chapters out and it's pretty decently paced.
That’s why I really like sports manga like Ao Ashi, Be blue, Diamond no Ace, Giant killing, RRR, there’s always a hint of realism in them.
Love the content ❤
51:54 Gensou Gourmet is the series name, it ended a while ago but the translations aren't at the final chapter yet so once in a while an update comes out for it
Another recc that should fit both Scarra's and Peter's tastes (but that you've probably already read) is Doctor Elise: Royal Lady of the Lamp. A villainess princess reincarnates as a doctor only to reincarnate back to her former self, and uses modern medicine in older times (and deliberately invoking a famous real life person in history).
can't wait to hear your guys' thoughts on centuria!
Awesome podcast.
Would recommend Eleceed, Genius of the Unique Lineage, Reaper of the Drifting Moon
Ya'll need to read Ace of the Diamond if you haven't yet. My personal favorite Sports manga/anime. Huge cast of characters that actually get screen time similar to Haiykuu. They also keep it pretty down to earth without any super power stuff but shows them training to learn new pitches to get past stronger teams.
Love the book club idea
The Wallflower and Inuyasha have always been favorites of mine along with Fruits Basket. There was a manhwa that i had read a while ago i cant remember the name of. Something to do with ghosts? It was a long time ago and im old 🤣
Slam Dunk was awesome(wrote the top at the beginning of the podcast :3 )
I think Peter would like something like Piccolina. It’s got cute romance, delicious looking food, and bunny girls
I would love y’all to read “I BECAME THE TYRANT OF A DEFENSE GAME”, it’s similar to Pick me up, infinite gacha. The story makes sense, also the power scaling is super good and well made. I say it even rivals pick me up, infinite gacha in terms of drama and pacing.
Peter should read the weakest occupation is “blacksmith”, but it’s actually the strongest. The best description I can give it’s a love letter for artificer in dnd
If you want more Manwha recommendations, one of the best current ones is Omniscient Reader's Viewpoint. Highly recommend it. The novel is also finished if you want but the manwha is currently about 1/5th of the current story and is about to hit one of the best parts in my opinion. General synopsis is that an ordinary office worker is the sole reader of this webnovel for 13 years and after the series ends, the story comes to life and the office worker has to handle the apocalypse of the story while also dealing with the main character of the webnovel.
I forgot to mention this manhwa recommendation when the video first came out, but Wild West Murim is a very interesting and different take on the Murim genre. Basically an alternate world where the central plains discovered America first. (I don't remember if they've talked about this but its a good read for anyone else)
Yea! Isekai doctor! art is cool too
If you guys want a good world/kingdom building manga there is: Isekai Apocalypse Mynoghra ~The Conquest Of The World Starts With The Civilization Of Ruin~
Peter talked ab liking if a gaming system type manhwa where a uncommon/rare lame class becomes op. You should try "the moonlight sculptor" like the name implies he's a sculptor class. It's super fun has 3 seasons.
Highly recommend Baby Steps - realistic tennis manga but still pretty awesome. Straight As kid who isn’t that smart but is very studious and stubborn (with good eyes) going from complete beginner to a fearsome opponent
Beginning after the end is back
Omg you guys read my recommendation "Pick Me up" . Another im reading that you might like is "The Indomitable Martial King"
Here's a list of random manga recommendations, hope you enjoy!
1. Kareshi Tokidoki Kanojo - romance manga with an interesting twist
2. Mietemasu yo! Aizawa-san - Girl becomes a fan of and idol after the idol dies, and sees her in the classroom as a ghost
3. Shin Honkaku Mahou Shoujo Risuka - Cool manga with NISIOISIN as the writer, known for monogatari
4. Hibiki - Shousetsuka ni Naru Houhou - Girl is overpowered at writing
5. Dai Dark - From the creator of Dorohedoro
6. Happiness - Manga about vampires, just read, kinda disturbing
7. The Legend of Dong Bai - Guy gets reincarnated as a girl into the romance of the three kingdoms setting
I think I'll just comment new recommendations each week
Also, I think a cooking manga you are looking for is Gensou Gourmet
Since we are on the topic of food-related manga, I really like these 2 queer romance series where cooking and sharing good food together kind of sparks and solidifies their relationships. Lots of wholesome found-family elements as well. They are called 'Our Dining Table' by Ori Mita and 'She Loves to Cook and She Loves to Eat' by Sakaomi Yuzaki. Highly recommend.
Peter! If you want to try a comic book I would recommend Saga it's a space opera romance with really cool unique style and humor
Scarra really got that Ben Franklin rizzler drip.
Niche mangas that I'd recommend since you gave us permission this episode:
Pumpkin Scissors (post-war relief effort + battle)
Spirit Circle (Living through 7 previous lives)
Helck (Comedy + mystery)
How I stalked some dude with an exposed nipple and stumbled upon the Zenithian Sword (Comedy + written by a blogger)
Bokura no Kiseki (Medieval magic drama + reincarnation in modern world + memory loss)
For food/cooking manga, you guys should try reading sota's knife and shoku king
You guys should read Survival Story of a Sword King in a Fantasy World it is widely considered a top 10 Manhwa from everyone who has read it and it has stakes just like pick me up.
Barbarian quest, legend of the Northern blade, and Lazy Lord master the sword.
Please give these a shot at least 100+ chapters.
Barbarian Quest holy shit that manhwa was hype af. Can't wait for the new season.
the heavy knight manga is nice but the thing is it looks like hes always on the verge of dying but its because he fight bosse who are mostly near double his level of cource he is always near death^^
I love listening to these guys 🫶🏻🫶🏻🫶🏻
I feel like they would enjoy reading hardcore leveling warrior especially since HCLW:Earth Game is being serialized now currently aswell it does the gaming aspect uniquely and I believe it is paced well aswell I believe it is a unique read.
and it even has a spinoff With a series called XandASh
Totally recommend you guys check out Ubel Blatt. It's a series that's been finished for a while, but it's relatively unknown and it's criminal because of how good it is. Fantasy action with lots of dark plot
Pick Me Up Infinite Gacha i'll look at after. Working through that Double Click recommend loving it!😀
You guys should really try reading “Grimgar of fantasy and ash” the light novel, It’s a vibe trustt
Thanks for the rec! Time for me to pick up Isekai Doctor!
Here are my recs if you haven't read them yet.
My Blade Will Lead the Way! Abandoned in a Labyrinth as a Directionally Challenged S-Rank Swordsman
Reiwa no Dara-san
Dungeon Crawler Carl (WN/Book)
My recommendation is The Tutorial is too hard, pretty basic tower type story but the writing for the main character is very good
Peter would like Legendary Moonlight Sculptor. One of the OG manhwas and main character is a blacksmith.
My recommendations:
1.) Killer Pietro (Manhwa) - good sh*t
2.) Dungeon Odyssey (Manhwa) - good sh*t
3.) Solo Farming In The Tower (Manhwa) - most wholesome tower manhwa you'll ever read and there's a big chungus!
4.) Tyrant of the Tower Defense Game (Manhwa) - the title says it all and it's kinda good.
5.) Mushroom Brave/Hero (Manhua) - it's basically a maplestory manhua, and this one is actually surprisingly good for a manhua.
check out Tongari Booshi No Atorie, or The Indomitable Martial King. Very artful reads.
I am a little late to watching this one, but my recommendation to a feel good Farmer Manwha that is about the trope of Towers, which is The Top Dungeon Farmer
Sooo power scaling and sports categorizing. What is your thoughts on mahjong manga/anime Saki! Is it a sport?
I recommend the manhwa The Beginning After the End. This manhwa got me into reading its light novel, and I don't even like reading novels, I like seeing pictures lol. It recently just continued too after a long hiatus.
Dang I wouldn't mind Peter's Amiibo collection lol
NOBUNAGO NO CHEF ! the update is slow as hell, but its such a great series !
Have you guys read "overgeared"? Im enjoying that at the moment.
Guys check out the Yozakura family mission anime. It actually adds really minor filler that actually enhances enjoyment of its plot. I'm pleasantly surprised cause I went into it expecting to hate it cause I like the manga so much. I think you might need to really like the manga to really enjoy it tho... Also down to ban Derf Ok
Somewhat popular manhwa, The Beginning after the End just re-started this past week.
Also I'd be curious what recs you guys have for time-skip mangas?
Idk if u guys said you've read this but please read "SSS class suicide hunter". Its alternate name is "SSS-Class revival hunter" its on going and is truly a masterpiece. If u can get past the kinda basic beginning, i promise u will not regret it. The story is truly something speical its a must read if ur into that kind of stuff !
I think they already mentioned having read and liked it in a previous episode.
Have you guys read Rosen Garten Saga or Super Ball Girls? Those are some quirked up series lmao
Edit: wow nvm just got to that part in the pod, yall know of super ball girls
Basashi ended in like 8 chapters. really wanted more but it was still fun. really hoping the mangaka gets more chances
wait it's over already? 😭
I do recommend a light novel read, it's called Shadow Slave, it's not a manhwa but a very well-written novel by a Russian guy
i got some decent recs for anyone catching this comment.
1/ Alive: the final evolution was a pretty underrated 2000s shonen manga imo, illustrated by Noragami artist.
2/ Team Medical Dragon is a solid seinen, has to do with JP medical industry and dr's trying to change the system. Manga was supervised by a medical professional for accuracy.
3/ Hirayasumi - slice of life. someone described reading this manga like listening to lo-fi and i couldnt have put it any better. Anyone reading this comment should check it out.
4/ Real/Slamdunk if u havent read these then get on it fake fan
5/ Eureka Seven - its a mecha. the manga is a different continuity from the anime and is illustrated by Deadman Wonderland artist.
Yo Worm mentioned! I’m curious if Scarra has read any of Wildbow’s other works?
Recommendations:
I Reincarnated as a Legendary Surgeon (Divine Doctor) - modern day doctor reincarnated into the distant past
Opening a Cafe in Another World - slice of life; revolutionizing cooking in another world
Surviving the Game as a Barbarian - stuck in a hard-mode game
not many comment recommend about romance manga/manhwa and i know scarra doesn't like it but peter did, here's my recommendation anyway since it's all finished/completed
manga : house of the sun, will you marry me again if you are reborn, the two gets by tomorrow too more or less, i'm around thirty and finally in love, three years apart
manhwa : see you in my 19th life, bring the love, is it a fortune or is it a woe, your eternal lies, marry me!
My recommendation for sport manga
-ao ni nare
-ao ashi
-baby step
Medical manga/manhwa
-medical return
-divine surgeon
- doctor rebirth
Revenge/mercenary troupe
- mercenary enrollments
- manager kim
Sensou kyoushitsu fairly new arround 16 ch. The power system is fairly interesting. Also has a malenia like character from elden ring design wise.
Read or watch Crossgame. Its my favorite, it’s really good, and I need someone else in this world to love it as much as I do
i remember those video stores that peter was talking about. my family lived far away from the closest video store, so my parents would rent shit tons of tapes to watch, like whole series of shows. they cost like $1 per tape and no late policy. i think alot of them had that policy because they were illegally taping the korean shows so they could make more copies as needed. and the korean media companies werent gonna try and charge little mom and pop shops in america taping their shows. i remember watching dragonball Z in korean, months sometimes years before they came out on cartoon network or other channels in america.
I was fine with Toriko’s art reading a lot of Seikimatsu leader Takeshi growing up
There's a manhua that i like a lot called damned reincarnation. Sorta generic op reincarnation manhua, but i think the story on this one, along with a little bit of the character development. Is better than most others in the same genre.
If you haven't read it yet Peter, one of my fav romance mangas is Kare Kano
Slam Dunk is amazing, must read
Has scarra tried reading the official colored version of one piece? It only goes up to 1004 chapters so far but it makes a world of a difference compared to the original. I was also dreading getting through the vast amount of chapters one piece has but I finished the colored one start to finish in under a month. I think it was the best experience I had reading manga. Oda is the goat.
My favourite medical isekai has to be the D storyline from TWI. Haven't really found anything better yet.
Is that about the formation of the Red Cross in the war zone area? It's been a while since I read TWI.
Regarding One Piece, just speed through meeting Sanji if this is your second time, since it all really starts once they head for the Grand Line.
Can you guys flip the second screen to be the bigger screen? It’s hard to see on my phone
scarra have you got around to reading Perfect Surgeon webtoon? since you like medical webtoons/manga
Some recommendations:
1. unOrdinary (346 chapter webtoon): a superpower society, story follows high schoolers. Fun battle scenes and art
2. A silent voice (completed manga): Manga and movie, high schooler tries to make up with a girl he used to bully in elementary school
3. To be ordinary/Futsuu ni Narita (completed webtoon): Mc with face blindness falls for a girl that has a husky/male voice
4. No scope (completed manhwa): Mc uses sniper in FPS fame and tries to become pro
5. Super secret (completed webtoon, reads like comic strip): Supernatural boy (big wolf) falls for ordinary girl who is kind of dense
6. Maybe meant to be (80 chapter manhwa): Starts with fake marriage to stop nagging parents, explores possible true romantic interest
7. Shotgun boy (prequel to 8) (completed manhwa): Bullied kid tries to ruin school field trip
8. Sweet home (completed manhwa): Horror, people try to escape monster infested apartment building
9. Bastard (completed manhwa): Son tries to stop dad from committing crimes
10. Boyfriend of the dead (314 chapter webtoon): Zombie falls for girl, some cute romance, comedy
11. Warrior high school dungeon raid department (45 chapters): Mc has to grow in order to kill the being that poisoned his father
12. My school life pretending to be a worthless person (66 chapter manhwa): Mc hates his power, has to learn to love and control his power
13. World's apocalypse online (265 chapter manhua, Chinese manga): Regression, game system, two concurrent plots: Main world with world ending threats and cultivation world
14. Classroom of the elite (anime, light novel, manga): Haven't read manga but based on light novel source and anime: Artificial genius goes to elite high school to escape the lab his made from, lots of tests/competitions, class v class, to keep from getting expelled. Mc has more character development, discovering emotions and normal high school activities and thoughts, in the light novel but anime shows cold deadpan, calculating genius trying to hide among the masses
The Couple Breaker
I want to recommend "Flying Witch", it has both an anime and a manga and is a slice-of-life, fantasy, iyashi-ke work. If y'all are familiar with Yotsuba&, Flying Witch gives me the same feels-good relaxation.
It is my favourite manga (along with Yotsuba&) and I want it to be more popular so that the artist can get da big dollars from support
I'm so glad they mentioned Hikaru No Go! That's the anime I watch every year!
As for the ending, the mangaka had to stop because some Go player accused them of using his personality and person as a character in the anime. It caused a lot of issues, and so they ended up having to rush the ending, and the world go tournament arc.
As for Sai disappearing, I also didn't like it at first, but the manga isn't about him; it's about Hikaru. Sai had his time, and it was time for him to pass along his legacy to someone else and let Hikaru play and evolve.
