Again, pretty close to the light novel, so no major surprises. Some of the characters don't look how I imagined, but now I can't imagine them any other way, so that's pretty neat.

This was my 400th (and final) book finished in 2025, and also finished off my second #ComicsBingo card!

The manhwa is a pretty close adaptation of the light novel, which I read pretty recently, so not a lot jumped out and surprised me. I like the art, which is similar in style to Solo Leveling (which makes sense, both Redice Studio). Sometimes the light novel explains things better, sometimes the manhwa.

I'm having fun and definitely want to read more.

Somehow I'm feeling the Dokja/Joonghyuk vibes more from this though.

Photo time: 12:30 AM. Middle child is off to Seoul. I had to take them down to the city to fly out of LAX. Much more pleasant drive at midnight than midday. I got home at 3:30 am and I suppose I might not sleep until he tells me they are on the plane. (The tagged book is a Korean light novel I read a couple years ago when the anime dropped. ⭐️⭐️⭐️ 😊)

Ruthiella LAX is a nightmare! I would also definitely prefer driving there in the wee hours of the morning when there‘s far less traffic. 2d

What a full circle moment for Deku! My Hero Academia watched. Still stuck on Vol.13 in the manga series.

I know the story from the manhwa (which is up to this point preeetty faithful to this version), but it was still fun to read it in this format and get just a little more of the detail. Jinwoo is so clueless about people's feelings, ahahaha.

Enjoyed it a lot.

Hmm not as good as part one IMO.

I started on this on Christmas morning, while waiting for my wife to get up (we got to bed late because of Christmas prep, but I can't sleep in on Christmas morning). I was tearing through it, already pouting about the wait for the next volume because stuff won't be shipped for a few days...

Look what my sister-in-law (to be) got me for Christmas! Whew...

Feat. my “new old friend“, a little plush Hythlodaeus from FFXIV, which my wife got me. 😁

Barou is such a weird one and selfish to boot but I wasn't expecting to see Naruhaya though and with Barou of all peeps.

Now that was a fun match to watch and to see how everyone has grown in such a short time.

I did think that Reo was going to go after Nagi just to prove a weak point and he's proven me right! Lol 🤣

britt_brooke My son loves this series! 1w

Rin Itoshi is an animal and just wow. He's unlike any other character that's been introduced and there's been a few but he's beyond a powerhouse.

The ego on him to want to conquer everyone to beat his brother via Blue Lock is crazy but admirable. I hope there's more to his story and his drive because it can't be just to beat his brother. Isagi and Co. have their work cut out for them that's for sure.

This game between Team Z and Team V was a nail biter! I am way too invested in these characters!!

Not only was the game itself fantastic to read and see through the different angles across the panels but OMG what a twist this volume ended on?!?
