This series doesn't do random, and things like "he's the only reader" or "everyone think he is ugly" have an explanation down the road. Take the "he's ugly" part for example, one character get asked what Dokja looked like, and they answered off-handedly that "his face is kinda blurry" and waved it off as him being bland and unmemorable. But anyone that read a decent story knew this is a context clue.
Here is a spoiler free explanation for it if anyone is wondering: there is "something" that protects his identity and privacy from being "read" by others which also results in his face being blurry or censored or hard to remember.
OVR has translations of the original Webnovel floating around, with a published series by Sing Shong, though I do not know how much of the Webnovel the book series has covered so far.. The manhwa is free up to chapter 206 on Webtoons, roughly 1/3 of the webnovel
The Manhwa has covered around 180-190/551 chapters of the Web Novel, it's actually slower then the Novel somehow, but a great adaptation none the less.
and theres other sites with more chapters than webtoons released (cough cough flamecomics) with 214 free chapters, webtoons is just for reading it on yt
@@Nah_I-ll_Winso your telling me it’s going to take around 6 years for the manwha to finish (1 chap per week ignoring breaks =361 weeks) I’m don’t know how long I can hold on without being spoiled or giving in 😭
So, on the topic of him being the only reader, Gigguk says it's due to the length, but it's actually more than that. In universe, someone actually started plagiarizing the OG work early on in it's production. The plagiarism ended up becoming more popular than the OG, which led people to spread propaganda that the OG was the ACTUAL plagiarism, and so the OG lost the rest of it's readers aside from Dokja due to that. That Plagiarism is what those cults are built off of. In other words, it kinda got 50 Shades of Grey'd.😂
Been awhile, but I believe plagiarism is only part of the reason, as later on the question of why Dokja is the only reader or the identity of the writer resurfaced.
Orv is so peak. I'm currently rereading the novel becasue I am mentally ill and I still love it just as much. The webcomic is currently apporcahing a really big part in the plot and I'm very excited.
Oh, I read the novel when I was mentally unwell too, gave me the strength to contact my friends once again. You have good taste, I hope you'll keep on living.
do you know in the really start of the webtoon, it show the sentence of the novel ending kim dokja read. the sentence is like "There are three ways to survive in the ruined world. I have forgotten some part, but one thing is certain, YOU who are reading this WILL SURVIVE" and Dokja said "it's like story written for me and only me." once you finish the novel and read it again from the beginning, you will realize how deep that sentence meaning and maybe can make you questioned about your existance in this world
27:18 The actual thing had finished a long time ago, the recent updated "5 days ago" the korean website mentioned is for the side story (which can be considered a sequel if you want include it in the main story, it being called the "side story" is plot reason that I don't want to say anything about it) 29:14 If you're fine with epub, in the unofficial omniscient Reader viewpoint reddit they have an epub version that you can download (about -> the story list if you on pc, see more -> about if on mobile) tho keep in mind the manhwa is adapted from a revised ver of orv (which is different from the webnovel) so there's different changes here and there, it's only small changes though
13:22 no not a re:zero trope, regression is having a second chance in life and going back on a certain period of your life, it's the same with Subaru but, Subaru has checkpoints, Joon-hyuk has to go back to the beginning, Subaru's return by death is as you said, a time loop and has random checkpoints, while Joon-hyuk returns in a specific date and time
So little bit of context for the novel, the main story consisting of 500+ chapters is done but the authors are still writing "side story". I put it in quotation marks because it's just straight up a sequel at this point with well over 200 chapters with more still being wrote
@@Airier you might as well just get a translation online or read the webtoon (don't worry, the webtoon is a 1:1 adaptation to the novel) cause there's no official book translation in English
The reason why he was the only reading the novel is not because the novel is bad is because is one of those novels who are looooong to explain something the mc himself said that one meal was descripted in 3 chapters of the novels the novel was an ultra dense pile or words so at least you really like the novel is very weird that you are gonna read that
As others have said, the webnovel has been finished a long time ago now, there recent ones are the side stories for the light novel. It's not just glazing when we say that it is amazing, the series has been first for three years in munpia which is like the prime novel site for KR back then. It's successful both in sales and impact on the manhwa culture as well. Even before the manhwa started, there's already a signed conract for a live action adaptation starred by some of Korea's most famous. They recently announced that filming has been done so we can expect release by 2025. My apologies since it's long, but it's rewarding to have something we love finally spread it's wings for broader horizons
yeah it has web novel (completed), light novel (completed, an extra epilogue chapter featuring dokja's POV will be released), live action adaptation (not released yet), manhwa adaptation (ongoing) and anime adaptation which was just announced on crynchyroll
as the novel reader i say it's peak fiction because i never read novel except for this one and it's that good and it's just keep getting better and better and the ending is majestic
the main story is already finished a long time ago! they just started updating the extras^^ also yeah if you dig long enough you can get the complete translation of the main story in english!
I'd really recommend the novel, its impeccable! So perfectly made and well crafted. The epub fan translation can be a bit rough at points, but it really never disappoints! There is an official English translation coming out but tbh other than the announcement there really hasn't been any news for a while so no solid date. Its the best novel I've ever read. It gets better on every re-read and pretty much every person I've seen that has finished has agreed that It's pretty life changing. The couple that wrote it posted it in two years, but it took them seven to write and It shows.
As someone who's read the webnovel and currently re experiencing it with the manwha, I highly recommend ORV! In other words... [the constellation "fan of 'demon-like judge of fire'" has sponsored you 1 like]
As a only webtoon reader (for now) I can’t wait to see what comes next especially because I’ve seen so many novel readers (not only ORV fans) agree that ORV has one of the best ending ever written
I have been watching people read this with sound effects and my god, feels so good rereading a story I barely even started on for this. I might be more hype for this story than most of my favorite anime. It gives me vibes from Accel World, one of my favorite anime/light novels ever of being able to delve deep into characters and the audience seeing cheeky interactions, separation of morality debates all for the sake of the best chance of survival, getting people rejuvenated into their own self worth even when you are very overpowered and not leaving anyone in the dust. God… this might be what I need to read now in my late 20s to figure out what am I to confront my own secluded reality with.
5:34 not really something I can say as unrealistic, keep in mind this is Korean, which means what Dokja is reading is also Korean, usually when there is something shtty but is going for long, it gets attention regardless of how good or bad it is, but that's only because it's available on english, which means that what Dokja was reading probably didn't get an english translation, and trust me, there is a lot of hidden stuff on the internet, specially the novel side, those tend to get more neglected because people want to read comics more than novels now, so totally not unrealistic
There is a RWBY fanfiction about a version of Jaune that is a regressor, everytime he dies he is sent back to some random point in his past, but always before his first day in Beacon. He get to keep his memories, but nothing else. In the first Chapter this Jaune had already over 10000 loops and is very exhausted. Its titled "Not this Time Fate" its complete and a good read.
@@Airierthe same author also have other good fics too, they made Adam in one fic as the main character and it was actually really good. If you're interested in a humor fic there's Beacon Civil War where before the festival Ozpin has the students along with the other school students compete in a war game where it is boys vs girls.
@@unkownbeing5420 I really enjoy Beacon Civil War, especially since it helps reinforce "Ren I see as the brother I never had" "And I you". I don't know why, I really would like to see the relationship implied in that mostly comedic exchange explored more seriously. Jaune and Ren being bros.
I... I think you may have mixed up some terms around the 10:30 mark. Because for one... as annoyingly floaty as that description is, it's firmly written in past tense. And "you did this" is second person, past tense.
ORV is really good, i got hooked into the webtoon back in the first 10 chapters when it first released and bit the bullet and read the whole novel. there are some downs but overall i'd say it is great. one thing it did very well is keeping plot twists coming consistently up until the very end, always gripping the reader to see what happens next. but regardless i'd recommend reading the webtoon over the novel, some parts that felt like a slog in the novel i didn't even notice in the webtoon because they got shortened or condensed.
5:00 - very much a possibility, funnily enough. Example: Royal Road. There's 15k+ fics and original novels there, top 100 titles have cemented and calcified their spots decades ago do to how rating system works; search and tag functions are horrendous and don't work as they should; while "recently updated" tab is a joke since someone uploads something pretty much every minute in real time which leads to everything being in constant state of self-burial by an avalanche of random chapters site-wise. So it's not that rare to have a novel with 200+ chapters that barely has over a dozen readers because they were the only ones who got to notice and were fast enough to bookmark it.
unfortunately, there's no official publication of the webnovel in English yet, but there are machine translations and fan translation floating around. also the reason why you saw it was updated a few days before this video is because the original story IS OVER at chapter 551. however, there is a side story that continues the story that's been running for about 180 chapters or so now. :D;;; DEFINITELY WORTH THE READ. starting with the webtoon is real good because the webtoon/manhwa follows the webnovel pretty closely!
How to describe ORV.... there's nothing to really compare it to that I've come across and I'm glad the iceberg pic convinced you. There are currently only fan translations of the finished Light Novel, but the translation I will warn you is a bit rough (errors, typos, lack of localization etc) and you'll get most enjoyment if you're somewhat familiar with Korean culture. The Webtoon is easier to read and gorgeous. (Find the fan translation to put on your e-reader from the ORV subreddit)
ORV is popular enough you can probably find it fully translated on most major light novel websites, especially since it has been completed for a few years already and has been reuploaded all over the internet.
Orv story have 3 part, main story - the epilog - the side story. Every part is still dokja (reader) story yet its not the same person or fragment and the side story is the continuation of the epilog.
If you were to read and complete the novel(its translated, just search it up it will come), you will develop a love/hate relation ship with the numbers: 49% and 51%. Also the ugly squid will give you the same feeling.
yes, there is an english version, its on webtoon, the chapters come out weekly but because of the translations its 10 chapter late but if you want to read all the chapters and the translations came out as soon as new chapter is out, than google is your friend
Don't underestimate korean novels, some of them can really go on till thousands of chapters, so the novel Kim Dokja was reading TWSA that has over 3149 chapters is not that special or intriguing enough for people to check it.
Kim dokja name have 2 meaning in korean, 1 only child and 2 reader, yeah you can call him kim reader and kim dokja is the only child in his familly and he is a reader so that why he have skill like reading fast, omniscient reader viepoint, bookmark and the fourth wall.
There is a few English translated versions of the novel, but they aren't official they're translated by fans so there may be a few things that aren't translated properly. Pretty sure there's two formats (if you download them) PDF or epub 😅
There's an English webcomic called _Sluggy Freelance,_ that's been 5 days a week since 1997 (published books too) and the insane continuity and plot progression is staggering, especially when they have concurrent arcs that last months to years. It starts of looking like a newsprint gag strip, then the weight of what some of the characters go through breaks you. Not even One-Piece has introduced as many seemly silly ideas, only to make they harrowingly serious.
I just finished the novel today, and I can definitely it's one of the greatest pieces of fiction I've ever read, up there with the work of Brandon Sanderson. The manhwa is great too, but the novel is truly a masterpiece that i finished completely in a week(i genuinely could not put it down) and it's a rollercoaster of emotions that I'd recommend to anyone, especially if you like works that highlight a unique view on the concept of stories and tge relationship between a reader, an author and the characters. (And to my fellow readers who've completed it, yes i am 49% depressed now)
I feel like giguk explained it weirdly, but heres a spoiler free run down of the skill The Fourth Wall! The ability blocks mental attacks such as being forced to relive something traumatic, suppresses excessive emotions so that Dokja doesn’t lose his cool and ability to think, as well as dampens the pain he feels from physical attacks but does not dampen the actual level of injury. The Fourth Wall is strongest when against something so obviously fictional. Like a supernatural creature that has only become real because of the novel coming to life. Whereas it weakens when faced with Dokja's reality, like his mother or his past bully. And as the story progresses, you can even see it in the webtoon, Dokja's Fourth Wall is getting weaker against the characters from the novel as he begins to see them as real people. As fiction and reality start to blend in his mind and he views these characters as PEOPLE. Als the Fourth Wall is the reason why people say Dokja is ugly. He isn't, the Fourth Wal justl blurs his face.
Alt +F4 is how you close out of a video game window. So "Alt +F4 my life" is how one would say they're going to... um... Moxxie: "Commit die." Thank you, Moxxie.
I was going to, but then I heard they're actually in the process of making an anime about it. I want a way to read it until the anime's out. If only because I'd be shouting at the screen a lot more if I already know it's about to happen then I would going in blind. 😅
I would really recommend "worth the candle" by Alexander Wales web novel. It does this kind of meta really well. Also to hook you in a bit, actual cannibal Shia la beuf is a character that appears and is plot relevant on several occasions.
The manwah is completed & amazing af. The English is in translate, you can read it Webnovel. The first 3 books are out, the 4th is coming out next month, they are also movies coming out next year
in most manhwa regression is used as one time thing , the mc dies after he progressed a lot in his first life (usually in a catastrophic situation) and he returns before the event takes place and then the story starts (if he dies again he does not regress again he just dies). The point is that the mc now can collect all the powerfull resources from the start and become strong enough to overcome what killed him previously using his knowledge and skills from the previous life. Also manhwa dont need anime , they look very good and they are colored the only thing that anime have on them is music , but honestly most anime destroy the manhwa they adapting.
So, as I understand it, a lot of what we tend to think of as manhwa and KLN is kind of biased from the major available source being the equivalent of RUclips for self publishing and even if you have an actual original unlazy idea, you still have to play the trending algorithm and SEO. Hence the titles that read like video tags and the isekais that wouldn't be if you remove the 1st 2 pages.
There is a translated novel version you can read in an e-book reader. I read it and it was worth. I'm saying that as someone who doesn't like to read long stories very much.
Idk about this trope but i do love female lead stories usualy set in a otome game as the "vilalines" rebirth they make for some of the funniest or intresting stories for me
english novel can be found on: novel bin and light novel world manwha can be found on: webtoon (paid newest chapters), manwha clan and readomnicient there are also as I found 5 side stories whichm if anyone knows where to find those please let me know :D
That Death game one that’s at 1:57 is actually pretty good. It isn’t a death game manhua but a psychological thriller type that teaches the value of life . I recommend you read it
@aerier this light novel was completed a few years ago. I managed to catch up and followed the novel to its completion. You will not regret reading this. Enjoy
No, it is finished long ago - "Omniscient Reader's Viewpoint," a popular web novel written by Sing Shong, was completed on April 24, 2020 That's probably it transfer from Web novel to a Light novel or something.
@@littledragonfly9581 Mmm True, but full answer I got from GPT, is "Omniscient Reader's Viewpoint," a popular web novel written by Sing Shong, was completed on April 24, 2020. The series was serialized on the platform Munpia and later on Webtoon for the webtoon adaptation."
I'm glad you know this masterpiece. It's really good. It gave me a lot of touching and understanding. I've reread the novel for the tenth time! More to come later I guess!❤
Oh wait I skipped this video and just realised it's about ORV... Yeah I shouldn't have skipped it, I'm fixing this mistake right now :D Also if you started reading it, what are your thoughts on it? :>
You should start with the manhwa until you catch up to the most recent chapters and then switch over to the novel (highly recommend the scanlations translation, it is complemented by important missing pieces from the novel at the end of each chapter). I promise you will not regret reading this novel, it is truly life changing media
Please I beg you read the manhwa it’s so good. If anything atleast read the first chapter cause that’s all you need to realize that the manhwa is amazing
There are english translation on web novel reader the names are a bit off but if you read the manwha for a bit to see the names you can replace them when you read a phonetic spelling as opposed to the right spelling its a great read ive read it 3times so far going to start my 4th pretty soon
Dokja was out here reading Xianxia stories before it was cool and got rewarded busted Gamer-like powers for it. Side note: Don't read Xianxia. They're bad. Not even Isekai Trash bad where it's such a blatant dumpster fire that it loops around to being enjoyable, but JUST BAD.

I... I think you may have mixed up some terms around the 10:30 mark. Because for one... as annoyingly floaty as that description is, it's firmly written in past tense. And "you did this" is second person, past tense.
Yup. That's on me. Got it all mixed around.
ORV is really good, i got hooked into the webtoon back in the first 10 chapters when it first released and bit the bullet and read the whole novel.
there are some downs but overall i'd say it is great.
one thing it did very well is keeping plot twists coming consistently up until the very end, always gripping the reader to see what happens next.
but regardless i'd recommend reading the webtoon over the novel, some parts that felt like a slog in the novel i didn't even notice in the webtoon because they got shortened or condensed.
5:00 - very much a possibility, funnily enough. Example: Royal Road. There's 15k+ fics and original novels there, top 100 titles have cemented and calcified their spots decades ago do to how rating system works; search and tag functions are horrendous and don't work as they should; while "recently updated" tab is a joke since someone uploads something pretty much every minute in real time which leads to everything being in constant state of self-burial by an avalanche of random chapters site-wise. So it's not that rare to have a novel with 200+ chapters that barely has over a dozen readers because they were the only ones who got to notice and were fast enough to bookmark it.

unfortunately, there's no official publication of the webnovel in English yet, but there are machine translations and fan translation floating around.
also the reason why you saw it was updated a few days before this video is because the original story IS OVER at chapter 551. however, there is a side story that continues the story that's been running for about 180 chapters or so now. :D;;;
DEFINITELY WORTH THE READ. starting with the webtoon is real good because the webtoon/manhwa follows the webnovel pretty closely!
How to describe ORV.... there's nothing to really compare it to that I've come across and I'm glad the iceberg pic convinced you. There are currently only fan translations of the finished Light Novel, but the translation I will warn you is a bit rough (errors, typos, lack of localization etc) and you'll get most enjoyment if you're somewhat familiar with Korean culture. The Webtoon is easier to read and gorgeous. (Find the fan translation to put on your e-reader from the ORV subreddit)

I am not going to say anything so as to not spoil it.
You have no idea how close you are
😮🤔
SO tempting to ask for more info, but that way leads to spoilers. 😅
Since you don't watch Trope Talk in order anyway, they did one on the "All A Dream"
I need to check that one out, then

ORV is popular enough you can probably find it fully translated on most major light novel websites, especially since it has been completed for a few years already and has been reuploaded all over the internet.
Orv story have 3 part, main story - the epilog - the side story. Every part is still dokja (reader) story yet its not the same person or fragment and the side story is the continuation of the epilog.
Dokja name is mean only child or reader and dokja is both.
"If it's more Isekai crap...I'm taking notes" hahhaha that cracked me up
If you were to read and complete the novel(its translated, just search it up it will come), you will develop a love/hate relation ship with the numbers: 49% and 51%.
Also the ugly squid will give you the same feeling.
yes, there is an english version, its on webtoon, the chapters come out weekly but because of the translations its 10 chapter late
but if you want to read all the chapters and the translations came out as soon as new chapter is out, than google is your friend
Don't underestimate korean novels, some of them can really go on till thousands of chapters, so the novel Kim Dokja was reading TWSA that has over 3149 chapters is not that special or intriguing enough for people to check it.
If you'd like to get a few teasers without getting a spoiler i recommend watching omniscient Reader in 5 mins
Kim dokja name have 2 meaning in korean, 1 only child and 2 reader, yeah you can call him kim reader and kim dokja is the only child in his familly and he is a reader so that why he have skill like reading fast, omniscient reader viepoint, bookmark and the fourth wall.
There is a few English translated versions of the novel, but they aren't official they're translated by fans so there may be a few things that aren't translated properly. Pretty sure there's two formats (if you download them) PDF or epub 😅
ORV is the first and only manwha/manga that made me drop it, just so I can jump to the book! I have nothing but good things to say.
There exist out there webnovels with 13000 chapters. Or more.
3000 is still really long.
There's an English webcomic called _Sluggy Freelance,_ that's been 5 days a week since 1997 (published books too) and the insane continuity and plot progression is staggering, especially when they have concurrent arcs that last months to years. It starts of looking like a newsprint gag strip, then the weight of what some of the characters go through breaks you. Not even One-Piece has introduced as many seemly silly ideas, only to make they harrowingly serious.
"Well obviously this guy shouldn't read the book, he obviously started it"
So...
Novel readers cries at this sentence...
I just finished the novel today, and I can definitely it's one of the greatest pieces of fiction I've ever read, up there with the work of Brandon Sanderson.
The manhwa is great too, but the novel is truly a masterpiece that i finished completely in a week(i genuinely could not put it down) and it's a rollercoaster of emotions that I'd recommend to anyone, especially if you like works that highlight a unique view on the concept of stories and tge relationship between a reader, an author and the characters.
(And to my fellow readers who've completed it, yes i am 49% depressed now)
What makes this video better is the day I caught up to it he released this video
I’m gonna be so fr when i say: reading this light novel was life changing
The entkre novel story has been translated btw! Even unkfficially its good
No people have read the og novel but nobody has read the whole story to the end
I feel like giguk explained it weirdly, but heres a spoiler free run down of the skill The Fourth Wall!
The ability blocks mental attacks such as being forced to relive something traumatic, suppresses excessive emotions so that Dokja doesn’t lose his cool and ability to think, as well as dampens the pain he feels from physical attacks but does not dampen the actual level of injury.
The Fourth Wall is strongest when against something so obviously fictional. Like a supernatural creature that has only become real because of the novel coming to life. Whereas it weakens when faced with Dokja's reality, like his mother or his past bully. And as the story progresses, you can even see it in the webtoon, Dokja's Fourth Wall is getting weaker against the characters from the novel as he begins to see them as real people. As fiction and reality start to blend in his mind and he views these characters as PEOPLE.
Als the Fourth Wall is the reason why people say Dokja is ugly. He isn't, the Fourth Wal justl blurs his face.

Thank you, Moxxie.
Hey ! Just to ask you. Please, make a video of your feelings on what you have read of ORV if your began to read it.
I was going to, but then I heard they're actually in the process of making an anime about it. I want a way to read it until the anime's out. If only because I'd be shouting at the screen a lot more if I already know it's about to happen then I would going in blind. 😅
I would really recommend "worth the candle" by Alexander Wales web novel. It does this kind of meta really well. Also to hook you in a bit, actual cannibal Shia la beuf is a character that appears and is plot relevant on several occasions.
Please this novel is the love of my ife
magic emperor and evolution begins with a big tree is peak
The squid touches another wall
The manwah is completed & amazing af. The English is in translate, you can read it Webnovel. The first 3 books are out, the 4th is coming out next month, they are also movies coming out next year
in most manhwa regression is used as one time thing , the mc dies after he progressed a lot in his first life (usually in a catastrophic situation) and he returns before the event takes place and then the story starts (if he dies again he does not regress again he just dies). The point is that the mc now can collect all the powerfull resources from the start and become strong enough to overcome what killed him previously using his knowledge and skills from the previous life.
Also manhwa dont need anime , they look very good and they are colored the only thing that anime have on them is music , but honestly most anime destroy the manhwa they adapting.
I love this novel and manhwa adaptation with all my heart!! Glad to to see it getting more love.
Literally one of the big three of webnovels people call this peak for a reason
So, as I understand it, a lot of what we tend to think of as manhwa and KLN is kind of biased from the major available source being the equivalent of RUclips for self publishing and even if you have an actual original unlazy idea, you still have to play the trending algorithm and SEO.
Hence the titles that read like video tags and the isekais that wouldn't be if you remove the 1st 2 pages.
There is a translated novel version you can read in an e-book reader. I read it and it was worth. I'm saying that as someone who doesn't like to read long stories very much.
By the constellations I think he got it
Idk about this trope but i do love female lead stories usualy set in a otome game as the "vilalines" rebirth they make for some of the funniest or intresting stories for me
english novel can be found on: novel bin and light novel world
manwha can be found on: webtoon (paid newest chapters), manwha clan and readomnicient
there are also as I found 5 side stories whichm if anyone knows where to find those please let me know :D
That Death game one that’s at 1:57 is actually pretty good. It isn’t a death game manhua but a psychological thriller type that teaches the value of life .
I recommend you read it
Goddammit...
I have been avoiding reading this one for years and you are not going to make me read it now.
If they make an anination for it however...
I love that this novel get more attention
Take a shot every time he pauses. You'll be trashed halfway through the video lol
It's About to have an adaptation lol
@aerier this light novel was completed a few years ago. I managed to catch up and followed the novel to its completion. You will not regret reading this. Enjoy
I need to catch up on omniscient readers viewpoint
No, it is finished long ago - "Omniscient Reader's Viewpoint," a popular web novel written by Sing Shong, was completed on April 24, 2020
That's probably it transfer from Web novel to a Light novel or something.
it might also be the side stories that the writer has been working on
@@littledragonfly9581 Mmm True, but full answer I got from GPT, is "Omniscient Reader's Viewpoint," a popular web novel written by Sing Shong, was completed on April 24, 2020. The series was serialized on the platform Munpia and later on Webtoon for the webtoon adaptation."
i rememeber getting up to chapter 1400+ of a novel 300o is very plausable too lol
7:55 so TruE
I'm glad you know this masterpiece. It's really good. It gave me a lot of touching and understanding. I've reread the novel for the tenth time! More to come later I guess!❤
I honestly would love if you would do shust a little read of the first chapters of it on the channel ! [Its on webtoon, the app] ❤
Maybe? Depending on any copyright issues, it does sound fun. 🤔
man the reason why he's only reader will be explained in the future/ U can still read in a light novel
I recommend also watching Gigguk's regression video
Please read this on your channel! ORV is so good, and I would 100% watch!

Also if you started reading it, what are your thoughts on it? :>
My fav fiction

1) Reverend Insanity
2) Lord of the mysteries
3) Omniscient Readers Viewpoint
I actually love this novel
i really hope you read the webtoon on this channel, would love to see your reaction to it!
airier pleas you HAVE TO READ THIS MANWA IT SOO GOOD
You should start with the manhwa until you catch up to the most recent chapters and then switch over to the novel (highly recommend the scanlations translation, it is complemented by important missing pieces from the novel at the end of each chapter). I promise you will not regret reading this novel, it is truly life changing media
Please I beg you read the manhwa it’s so good. If anything atleast read the first chapter cause that’s all you need to realize that the manhwa is amazing
7:44 Hey now, don't tell me all those tidbits I gave you about Underverse and Xtale weren't interesting.
It's good very good.
There are english translation on web novel reader the names are a bit off but if you read the manwha for a bit to see the names you can replace them when you read a phonetic spelling as opposed to the right spelling its a great read ive read it 3times so far going to start my 4th pretty soon
Dokja was out here reading Xianxia stories before it was cool and got rewarded busted Gamer-like powers for it.
Side note: Don't read Xianxia. They're bad. Not even Isekai Trash bad where it's such a blatant dumpster fire that it loops around to being enjoyable, but JUST BAD.
