7 Volumes (Complete)




As I read the first few pages, I'm looking at the really cute seemingly cool guy then he stands up and walks away like a total BA and I notice the star on his shirt and I'm like how can he say that when he looks like barbie (barbie fashion fairytale last scene) with the star right smack in the middle of his shirt
Don't mind me I'm just a fashion freak have fun on reading it 🙂
It's just slapstick humor.... and the same type of slapstick humor... (especially if you've read other works by this author--In fact, this author tends to use the same formula for every story: insanely strong but "ugly/uncaring/messy" chick with low IQ, perfect dude with bad attitude, and random villainous chicks who dig the perfect dude nonstop)
The art is also really awkward (especially those "fight scenes"), and the girls in this series make us females in the real world look bad. How can these girls all either be so stupid, bitchy, or obsessive about hot guys? How stereotypical and degrading, not to mention cliche, can this manga get?
But to tell the truth, it was entertaining, and I did laugh out loud a couple times, so I won't bash on it further. I just think the main guy's hairstyle sucks---and he looks like a chipmunk when he's mad.
Oh and I have a feeling the author just gave up on this 2/3 way through. It got pretty messy like she (the author) didn't know what she was doing anymore.
Just go with the flow and this Manhwa is kind of funny. Although, I have to admit it was more unwillingly funny, but that's in the end all the same. Kkk. Seriously the storyline comes up with all kinds of the well-known issues and the characters are stereotyped, but in the end even this has a hilarious side. For example, the last two chapters made me crack laughing, ...
... when the lost cousin reappears out of the blue (Yes, you get to know him in the chapter before.) and suddenly the main characters family moves, so she had to transfer schools.
I can't really take it serious and the art style is pretty oldschool, that's why all in all just 4 points from 10. And, those are mainly for the humor. Mian~
as the ppl b4 me said...STABLE characters...theres growth alright...but no superficial cliche and cheap use of some weird traumas...there are ways to use them...and normally shoujo/shounen FAIL at them....so it was wonderful to see how the author did this...truly displays the authors skill and creativity due to lack of too many cheap gimmicks....
decent plot too...not too deep...but more than acceptable
I wasted my life reading this. When it ended i was like wtf, i thought the story didnt start yet. Like 12 chapters and i couldnt care less about any of the characters. And its weird that i wanted the girl to end up with the psycho guy... Dumb, its a waste of time.
Read it =)
As a whole it's good. the author just didn't know how to end it in such a way fangirls would be satisfied.
Nevertheless, I still liked it =) I like light stories
Definitely a jjang manhwa I respect a lot more than others. I liked that the main female and male lead had logic and stable emotions. Both of them had stories to tell but they weren't traumatized or unreasonably psychotic like a lot of violent manhwa characters seem to be (it gets old!). There were a few annoying characters but none were that significant so it was alright. ALSO I really liked that the female lead saved herself and others a large majority of the time because she had the capability. She was mentally tough and independent. Another really big thing for me is that the male lead was great. He had problems but was mentally strong. He didn't care about what others thought and he loved the main lead with the heart of a best friend. Good genuine feelings! I liked it! Slight downer that the ending was so abrupt.
overall the best things:
Its the best jjang manga i've read. The lead girl isn't just strong but she is smart and respectable. I like the fact that the insane person is told they are insane. There seems to always be an insane person in jjang mangas but their treated as if they were normal.I like the happy ending and that the characters relationships were stable. Not wishy-washy "i love you" then "i hate you" or "were friends" then "weren't not friends" type relationships. I also liked that how they became a jjang was explained. The fighting scenes are lacking but oh well. Over all i was simply impressed. I hadn't expected it to be very good.
This manwha started out really good and interesting but soon got pretty cliche around the club scene. Still, a decent read. I would've rated this higher but about 2/3rds of the way through it just started to seem unfocused and rushed. I will say that I liked how the main couple interacts with each other and how most of the other suitors gave them their space. Except for one, which kind of got annoying and was obviously there as comical relief.
All in all, good story but could have used better character development.
I have to preface this by saying, I almost never like fighting stories. Mostly because they make it seem like all the people do is fight. After awhile, it just gets old. My rule of thumb has almost become, if it has a Jjang tag on it, its crap. This said, Red Lion is better then most fighting manwhas. It actually has at least a moderate amount of story. As well as several entertaining characters. And while of course being a Jjang manga, theres way, way, way too much fighting, the heroine of the story managed to draw me in and thus override the stupidity of the constant fighting to some degree. Its still not a great manwha. But compared to almost all the other idiotic fighting stories, this is a definite step up.
