Great series - didn't stick the landing

If it weren't for the weird veer towards supporting authoritarianism at the end (i.e. she's a good tyrant and that makes it okay), I would have probably rated it a 10.

Must read

Loved the MC, the ML and their interaction. The MC grew from a naive girl to the owner of earth, trying to maintain a moral compass. 10/10

More of these stories are needed.

It couldn't get better

by Air Wolf

Rating: N/A

It couldn't get better but if I could suggest a book nearly just like this but with a few changes that would have it better match what I would like to try reading, I would.

I want this! Shonen with honest romance like found in this book(?).

Where the main character is male and treats his woman with all the love, respect, and sweetness a relationship should have. (The woman treats her man the same way once she falls in love. (I do believe that men fall first and do believe in women falling because "they love your love" ie "they love the way you love them/treat them")) Where secondary characters have a good M/F ratio. There is no chance or even suggestion of a harem. Just romance shown realistically from a man as in love as Jihan was with Moa. And of course, action. Can't be shonen without action.

Not bad!

Wish there was a bit romance tbh :’) but there was more than in a typical shounen typa story lmao. My complaint was that the end of the world didn’t seem all that pressing and terrible as for what it really should have been, and it was to easy to overcome. Nonetheless, although she gets too easily op, God Mo-Ah is a very cute, resilient, and admirable character. Love her.

It's been fun, god mo-ah!!

I'm quite happy of how it started and ended. Although I wishes it had a better structure in terms of dungeons, system and variants of species but that's just because I've read far too many leveling system books that I tend to compare how organized everything is. Either way, I loved this with a solid female lead that never disappoints, and what it truly means to have a lead with unwavering kindness and committed in creating the best way to save everyone. Long live, Tick King Mo-Ah!!

P.S. it's just a shame that I think most of the side characters were extremely underutilized.

Looking forward to this author's next book!

Ridiculous

by teranell

Rating: 6.0 / 10.0

This was completely ridiculous... the weirdest things happen and she becomes all powerful in the most random ways and for some reason everyone likes her, doesn't question her, and accepts that they are weak by comparison. But because of that it was funny

Fun dungeon rom-com

by Y_Sasuke

Rating: 7.5 / 10.0

Quite fun. I imagine the female author is a huge fan of Solo Leveling and decided to make a romance variant with a female office lady as the protagonist. The result is a roughly half action, half fluffy romance. There is something refreshing about this mix and an MC behaving as she does in this genre.

The story isn't serious enough to be great with regards to drama, it isn't funny enough to be hilarious, but it has pretty solid writing and pretty solid action and the romance is quite nice. A tad too much blushing for my taste.

Recommended for fans of romance or action comedy. If you are looking for a cruel OP MC destroying everything then you will be sorely disappointed.

Dungeon action-fantasy with female protag? Yes please!

by BepsRose

Rating: 9.0 / 10.0

MC is awesome for being sensible when it matters and not at all sensible when the story needs some comedic/light-hearted moments. The balance is decent.

I love that it shows a certain amount of realism on how living as a woman can be, and also breaks frequent tropes for female characters in manhwa.

She wears sensible clothing. When she's living in isolation in an abandoned cabin, she wears comfy, utilitarian clothes. When she's hunting in a dungeon, she's not wearing heeled footwear. Regular shirts and pants! Amazing!
She had a peeping-Tom and the police didn't take it seriously, which was not surprising to her, but surprising to the ML (who was naïve due to being male)
She was asked if she had a boyfriend by a male hunter team member while on a job instead of discussing the job they were supposed to be doing. She was appropriately annoyed.
Her achievements and strength are actually recognized by other strong men and women who ally with and follow her without having ulterior motives as potential love interests
The other main female character is also powerful and although they are VERY different women, they respect each other's strengths and support each other as women if needed, but are still independent minded
There's a lot at stake on a global scale and with the guilds/conspiracy, so any romance comes LAST
Yes, MC basically becomes OP, but at least she has to learn and train and (sometimes) fail before getting stronger bit by bit. Sometimes there's even limits!

Things I don't like:

Both the MC and ML lose braincells when it comes to romance. So much awkward blushing and willful ignorance
ML turned into a simp. An overprotective OP boss-killing hunter simp for the MC

Solid

Ch. 50 so far
Fun read, doesn't fall into the usual disappointing tropes with female protags or hunter stories. Author has done a great job at developing the characters overall. Great humor and not over the top or trying too hard. I love how there isn't a romance that overtakes the story like most of the other manhwas. Its just a friendship/relationship that's been developing naturally.
