So.
Hello.
I don't know why, but I'm getting addicted to writing these journals *shot*
I'm just going to do random things...
Like recommend webtoons/artists/junk.
Webtoons:
Tower of God*
Kubera*
Noblesse*
Crepuscule*
Divine Bells
Girls of the Wilds (yeah, I know this looks misspelled, but it's correct)
Ability
Mrs. Angel
I Don't Want This Kind of Hero!
Dr. Frost
Fair warning: The above webtoons are not ecchi, do curse, update weekly in Korean, aren't translated so steadily into English (excepting the first three) and you can find most of them on either batoto.net or egscans. com.
* These are the ones I especially recommend. They have over 50 chapters, translated pretty far, and I enjoy the artwork.
I love Korean webtoons because the artstyles are all different. SIU (Tower of God's illustrator and author) has a fairly "realistic" if you can call it that. His backgrounds are freaking amazing.
Kubera is more of the traditional "Japanese" manga style, but certain touches make it completely recognizable as Korean.
Noblesse! Perhaps not my favorite art style, but love the storyline and characters to death (M-21 FTW~)
Crepuscule. Probably one of my favorites. The art style is cute when it calls for it, scares me when it calls for it, etc. The characters and mystery are really nice too.
The other webtoons are just really fun. Divine Bells isn't that far, but the two-sided face of the king of Myung-joo is so funny.
Artists!

Heehee, just don't kill me when you realize you totally got into the series, and then...
It takes forever to translate/scanalate/update. My heart breaks daily... </3
Peace out!
Never mind, here are some awesome TOG quotes (Tower of God)
Tower of God, by S.I.U.
"You told me that being like I am is strange. But, to me, you're just a person that can't find a single thing that is precious within that huge pile of garbage. I don't care what others say, I will climb the tower. And if you all aren't a bunch of liars, then you better prepare what I want up there."
-Baam
Quant: "It seems you're mistaken about something. I have no problem eliminating you even without using shinsoo.There is only one reason why I am avoiding you with my shinsoo. It's because I don't want to kill regulars with my own hands. Remember that."
A-Team Regulars: "............"
Test Administrators: ".................."
Lero-ro: "Kuhahahahahahaha! That's a really awesome script!! The best! Quant! You're the bomb!"
Yu Han-sung: "Kukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukuku..."
Ship Leesoo: "Master, how old are you to be using such childish lines..."
Quant: "Wh...what?! Stop...stop laughing!! Lero-ro!"
Lero-ro: "Director, what's the reason you don't use shinsoo?"
Yu Hansung: "It's because I don't want to kill you with my own hands. Remember that."
Lero-ro and Yu Han-sung: "Kukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukuku..."
Quant: "I SAID, STOP LAUGHING!"
"Throwing away what's precious, giving in to their selfish desires to even betray their own, but the one God has chosen, is a child who cries over the death of a competitor... no, a friend."
-Quant
Ship Leesoo: "And who's this big fella?"
Rak Wraithraiser: "I am Raleader."
Ship Leesoo: "Raleader?"
Rak Wraithraiser: "A true leader of these times."
"The world is indifferent when something is taken from you. But when you try to get it back, it will do everything to prevent you from doing so."
-Serena Rinnen
"Truly an amazing child. That confidence, guts, knowledge, ability, cunning, and that arrogance.
It makes you want to just crush it."
-Yu Han Sung
Ship Leesoo: "But, you're really amazing. You look completely normal but you've made it this far."
Baam: "No, no, it's all thanks to my allies."
Ship Leesoo: "Guys who talk like that are usually the scary ones in the end."
"Looks like we got a monster."
-Lero-ro
Baam: "By fun..... I think that individual is definitely funny."
Aguero: "Mm..... He's definitely got talent. I think he is retarded."
"Aaaaaaaaargh!!! What are you thinking, Yeon?! He's a member of FUG!!! Bad person!! Yes, a bad person! Bad person indeed! Good looking guy, but a bad person!!"
-Yeon Yihwa
"I have something I fear more than death."
-Jyu Viole Grace
"No matter how small a baby shark is, it can't swim with the sardines..."
-Quant
"Don't you think that God is quite cruel? When He first shows you this world, makes us feel that we could possess anything in this vast world...However, with a sudden appearance He tells you 'That's your limit'. Even though there are so many things that we want still unfulfilled."
-Lero-ro
"I believe, the only difference between those up there and me is 'given up' and 'not given up'."
-Ja Wangnan
"It's funny, you see. You tack on things like 'revenge' and 'justice' while killing a man. Isn't that really funny? Why? You think you can be a different kind of murderer than I am?"
-Lurker
Prologue: "What do you desire? Money? Glory? Power? Revenge? Or something that surpasses all others?
Whatever it is you desire...that is here.
Tower of God."
Baam: "Help...So that I can climb the Tower...help me...please!"
Black March: "You want to go up that badly?
Baam: "?"
Black March: "You want to go up that badly?"
Baam: "Who...You are...? Black...March?"
Black March: "Precious riches, a fruit bearing a magical taste and beautiful women. Or even sweeter power and glory. The reason which makes you climb this tower, which of these is it?"
Baam: "No...For me...I just want...Lahel."
Black March: "Lahel? What's that? Is it a name of a treasure? Or a name of the most beautiful woman in the tower?
Baam: "No...Lahel is my friend...It's the name of my friend I used to spend time with. She doesn't sparkle like a jewel, and she isn't the most beautiful. She is tomboyish and pulls jokes on me, and even lies from time to time...but she is very precious to me. If I can just find her, I don't care about climbing this tower."
Black March: "...A rather trifle man. But I don't dislike such men. More than anything, your face is just my type. Okay, I will help. Just this once."
Yeon Yihwa: "Would you change rooms?"
Jyu Viole Grace: "But I was assigned here."
Yeon Yihwa: "That is true, but we are a man and a woman. If you plan on requesting something from me because you settled my debt, you better stop dreaming."
Jyu Viole Grace: "What would I request from you?"
Yeon Yihwa: "That...That is...My body..."
Jyu Viole Grace: "I have no interest in your body."
Yeon Yihwa: *mentally snap*
Snake Dude: "I think you're mistaken here, I'm not weak enough to lose to a light bearer in a close-range fight."
Aguero: "I think you're mistaken here, the reason I'm a light bearer isn't that I'm weak at close range. It's because I like to give orders."
"Shhhhh. There are kids listening."
-Arkraptor
Baam: "I'm an irregular!"
Rak Wraithraiser: "Irregular? What's that? Food?"
Rak Wraithraiser: "Hey, turtle, what do I do?"
Aguero: "You're leader!"
"Do you know what the most important factor of climbing the tower is? Luck. Luck that allowed you to be born with a strong body. Luck that gave you a smart brain. Luck that brings wealth. Luck that avoids death. Luck that gives you a team. The reason you have made it so far is because of your luck."
-Lero-ro
"You must become an existence capable of killing those who can never be killed, Viole. Hang in there, my god."
-Hwaryun
"I don't know what kind of a past you had or how great of a future you might have, but the person who'll stand by you right now is ME."
-Ship Leesoo
"I've got a bigger chest than you! You stinking male ape!"
-Yeon Yihwa (gotta love the woman.)
