Star Player Supporter feels like a pretty typical VR–game manhwa. The story is mostly predictable: the main character is already the best player, constantly discovering new things in places no one else bothers to explore. One of the strangest parts is how the game developers act as if they have nothing else to do but watch this single player all the time, which makes the world feel a bit unrealistic.

The characters are generally decent, and some of them are genuinely fun, but there are moments where they act in ways that make no sense at all. The protagonist especially has some over–the–top reactions. There’s even ... a moment where he gets really upset over an NPC’s death, and it just doesn’t fit the tone of the story, so it pulls you out of the moment.

Despite all that, I still enjoyed reading it, and I think fans of VR–game stories will probably like it too. But the biggest issue is that the series suddenly stops at a very crucial point, leaving a ton of things unanswered. If I had known it ends like that, I wouldn’t have started it.

Overall, it’s a fun read, but it has plenty of logic gaps and it doesn’t offer a satisfying ending. If you want to try it, just be aware that it’s incomplete.

How to Live as a Villain stands out as one of the more unique manhwas in the isekai genre. The mix of gods, quests, and a structured survival system gives the world a sense of depth that feels both exciting and dangerous. The story isn’t predictable because the main character doesn’t follow the typical “kind hero always wins” formula. Instead, he’s manipulative, cunning, and ruthless, which makes every decision feel tense and refreshing.

The art style fits the darker tone perfectly. Expressions, action scenes, and the atmosphere all highlight the constant struggle for survival. Characters aren’t flawless or overpowered; they have strengths, weaknesses, and make choices ... that feel realistic in their desperate situation.

This series will likely appeal to readers who are tired of overly perfect protagonists and want something darker, clever, and more strategic.

We watched Naruto, and now they expect us to watch Boruto too? The original series already felt stretched with countless filler episodes that dragged the pacing. And once Naruto finally ended, they just shifted focus to his son instead of letting the story rest.

In terms of story, Boruto doesn’t feel very unique. It follows a predictable "next generation" formula that lacks the emotional weight and buildup Naruto had. While some fans may enjoy the nostalgic setting and returning characters, the plot often feels forced — like it exists just to continue the franchise rather than tell a fresh, compelling story.

The art style is decent and ... clean, but it doesn’t have the same gritty charm or emotional depth that made some of Naruto’s most intense arcs so impactful. It feels a bit too polished at times, which takes away from the stakes.

The characters, especially Boruto, are hard to connect with. While Naruto was flawed, determined, and slowly grew over time, Boruto starts off overly entitled and doesn’t feel as well-developed. Some supporting characters are likable, but many feel like watered-down versions of the original cast. Reactions to serious events don’t always feel realistic, and the emotional payoff is often weak.

Fans of the Naruto universe might still enjoy the world-building and familiar faces, but Boruto feels more like a commercial sequel than a natural continuation. If you're looking for a deep story with strong character development, there are far better anime out there that could’ve taken Naruto’s place in the spotlight.
