Manga or Manwha?

#1

AltonBu02

I personally believe that manga is better (especially if you compare the best manga to the best manwha), but recently I feel like people have been liking manwha more. What do yall think?

Really? I could never find a story that impacted me as much as Goodnight Pun Pun or a Silent voice whenever I read manwha. Bastard and sweet home are great stories but even they weren't nearly as good to me.
A lot of hyped manwha like solo leveling, god of highschool, and tower of god had a story that I didn't enjoy at all.

i mean true, a lot of the manhwas are either in that villainess/shoujo category or that action/constant fights/shonen category and u dont see many stories that are as impactful as smth like pun pun or monster or whatever, it all just comes down to preference and im a degen for revenge/villain mc stories soo

i mean some of my favorites are omniscient readers' viewpoint and regressor instruction manual considering they are fleshed out stories and are incredibly and i know a lot of people would not like those stories for some of the same reasons why i like those stories and thats ok

I personally love Manhwa but it's more of a McDonald's burger than a loving meal made by your mother. For every 1 good manhwa there are 10 good manga. It will take 20 years more for manhwa to catch up to Manga.

Its the opposite for me, for every good manga theres 10 good manhwa.

For now manga better, but I believe in a couple of years there will be a lot of good manhwa because they're more stable, had a huge illustration team and most of manhwa just novel adaptation

manhwa will be better in a few years, manga has had longer.
solo leveling art gaps everything tho (for me)

Most manhwas are so random. Like the MC is on his way to do something then suddenly encountered a girl then the story takes a different turn. Most of them don't have this "arc" thingy. Authors just write what comes to their mind.

Recently, I’ve been loving manhwa, but I’d still say manga is the best. So far, no manhwa can top manga like Kingdom, Blame!, Oyasumi Punpun, Vinland Saga, GTO, or Climber. Maybe it's because I like the dark genre, idk...

manhwa is better, the japanese don't know how to fucking end a story without ruining everything like i read more than 100 mangas and i dont remember a single one that have a good ending, they always fumble in the end.

Goodnight Pun Pun, Your lie in april ending, relife, Fma, slam dunk, gto, jojo sbr, are just some of the mangas that have great endings. There's lots out there bro.

bro these ones i watched the anime not the manga, but i aint gonna lie i dont remember a manhwa with a bad ending because 99% of the manhwas get dropped or doesnt even end at all so i dont think is a manga problem i think its the genre problem.
but like One punch man manga is goated the best Art by far i have ever seen.

I completely agree. There are some people that say that manwha has better art, but for some reason I just can't see it. Maybe I'm tripping.

When I look at the face of some of the best art in manga I see details that I didn't even know where possible to draw, yet when I look at some manwha, it just feels too smooth idk how to describe it. Of course there are exceptions though.

colored =/= better art. it's just colorful.
no way in hell you can say that solo leveling art is better than what the heck one punch man is

#34

Yeah that's what it is. Nothing in manwha has nearly as much detail as beserk or opm art. I guess it just caters to a different audience some people just don't like the black and white and I get it. For me the details in the art are far more important but to others color might matter more.

media also kinda works differently. it is harder to make 15-30 pages of manga biweekly than 60-80 panels of manhwa weekly.

Yeah didn't think about that. I guess that kind of goes back to your quality vs quantity point.

Her summon seems pretty detailed to me, even though the story is kinda mid. I just read it for the art style ngl😆

I should've mentioned that. The art in that manwha is so fucking good. I don't think there's a manwha with better art. I agree with u on the story part though lol.

anyone that thinks manwha is better is a giga casual

there are a few exceptional standouts but in general manhwa is turbo slop

#23

I wouldn't say turbo slop, but it there is a lot of repetitive themes and copy and pasted stories. Kind of like isekai I just end up skipping them lol

yes except isekai makes up a much smaller fraction of manga than its asian counterparts in like regression or cultivation slop

all bad tho

both good but manga usually has better stories, you'll have to dig deep to find decent manhwa stories, most of the time its just romance in different settings with the same plot

Manhwa easy to read and got color in it
Manga on the other hand is hard to read and rarely has coloured chapters
Story wise manhwa is very very far , Hands down Manga on top but there are few GOATED manhwa.
At the end it is totally on a person's personal taste and preference

90 percent of manga isn't shonen, been reading for a while and I feel like new interesting stories pop up every day

I get the color part though, some people love that and it makes sense.

both are meh because both mediums are dominated by oversaturated genres and slop like the modern comic industry, it's just that those are pandered to the common weeb instead of superhero nerds. though I would say I like manhwa more because I feel like it's still more prone to writers & artists experimenting with their storytelling compared to manga

depends on the mood!

they both have very repetitive tropes (generally manhwa being slightly more repetitive while manga being cliche)

but I genuinely enjoy passing time with them
