The Unrivaled Villain

Description

Heli Yun, notorious degenerate, shocks everyone by suddenly turning from his lowlife ways. No one realizes he's been possessed by Lee Siwoon, the author of Heli's story! Trapped in the martial arts novel he wrote, Heli knows that unless he gains power, he's headed for a villain's death. Armed with knowledge about the novel's world, Heli sets out on a quest to gather friends and past enemies to create a martial arts force strong enough to defy the fate he was given... or literally die trying.

WTAF happened?

What the actual frack happened? Why did the author speed the ending? What even was that ending? 😕 It's even more maddening because of how good the series had been in the first season.

Ugh, this and Seikai Suru Kado make it very clear to me that yes, endings can break a story for me, no matter how excellent the majority of the series had been.

Axed

S1 was a decent murim story, but S2 is bad and rushed, with a lot of plot holes because it had to end the story fast.

Still enjoyable and compelling despite being very rushed in the second season

Looks like it was axed, rushed or intended to rush things in the second season and simplify all additional plotlines. Still, it's not bad and even being as suddenly rushed as it is, it still manages to remain compelling and consistent.
And also looks like it will be finished without being meaninglessly dragged and becoming boring! +1 for that, rare for a murim manhwa.

UPD: What the hell was that cliffhanger at the end.

go read something better, don't waste your time on this one. all the build up from season 1 is useless, they rushed everything in season 2 probably so it could get an ending.

MC: Weird

by SelflessHero

Rating: 1.0 / 10.0

The MC supposedly wrote the book, but he blames others for things he supposedly wrote?

It's as if the author has forgotten the backstory he gave the character, or just really didn't consider the fact that an author would write a lot of the things he supposedly didn't. That he just... randomly, haphazardly, wrote a story that even he forgot as he wrote it?

The constant back and forth between the MC being an idiot, a lucky one at that, and someone who "know's what's going to happen!", wedged in with 'I didn't know that'd happen' becomes a game of a whiplash.

This story... it had a good idea at it's core, but was executed badly.
