Mainly copying a post I've done in another forum, this is an awesome manhwa and was surprised to see no discussion of it here, at least the search function says there isn't. Want to see the opinions you guys of on the series.

Anyways, I just started reading this manhwa a couple of weeks, and read all 4 volumes released at the time in one sitting. I really recommend you guys to get this as fast as you can as I'm sure many of you will like it. Lot's of good drama, most are more mature than what's usually seen in this type of genre. Some cool characters, hot females, and lots of ecchi for you people that like that sort of thing. But the main part is that the story is really good in my opinion, so give it a try. There's even a bit of fighting in the 4th volume.

Also, I haven't read many korean school life series, so it's nice to see the cultural differences, the values and how strict some of the teachers and parents can be and still be acceptable by society, given that's fairly true in real life too. Still interesting...

Chapter 35 was recently released, and it was a good one. Series is being released by KMTS.

A young man finds and returns a lost wallet and cell phone to a beautiful young lady, thus begins the destined relationship between two strangers. Sound typical? Well then, how about making the young lady the young man’s future homeroom teacher, and give them both a twisted sense of right and wrong. And just for kicks, let’s have the young man help himself to a self proclaimed reward from the lost wallet before returning it… but of course, this scenario wouldn’t be complete unless the young lady was very unforgiving when it came to teaching one of her students a lesson on morals.

35 is out??? *jumps into the channel to get*

UxU is probably the _best_ drama manga I've read in the last years. Absolutely amazing how it manages to surprise and increase the tension time and time again.

I have to agree, most of the things that have happened so far I didn't expect. I was expecting a light-hearted manga with a bit of "taboo" romance, amd lots of comedy situations. But the series gets more dramatic by the volume, which was a pleasant surprise.

Nightengale
2007-04-09, 10:31
UxU is indeed one of the finer romance-drama-mangas I've seen in a while. It incorporates so many J/K/C do-ra-ma elements it's not even funny. In fact, half-way through, it felt as if every chapter has a dreadful cliffhanger every single time.

And Chapter 35 was good. I've always wondered whether or not the main guy actually had the true skills to back his mouth, since I don't recall we ever being shown his full fighting prowess at a full blast.

Good manwha, though there's a cliffhanger at each chapter's end...

2007-04-09, 14:02
Yeah chapter 35 really delivered made me like the series again(ch.34 helped a lot 2 xD ). I stopped reading when Jin-ho bowed down for Monami, but some people said it was cool again so I started reading again. I'm glad I did. My only gripe with this manga is that I don't like that teacher. I hope Jin-ho goes for the class prez. Since this manga is very surprising in lotsa ways. It might just happen, though this is just my wish full thinking.

Mentar
2007-04-09, 15:37
Nah. For me, the class rep (Ji-Soo) is the true heroine here ;)

She'll hopefully end up with Jin-Ho's best friend, Young-Gi.

This is a good series with a lot of potential but it doesn't feel like it can last for many more volumes, introducing a new character is a midway tactic to revive a dying storyline. It feels like everything gets resolved quickly or at least adressed I mean the confession is already old news. Ami motive revealed. Bully's confronted. On the positive side the art is really fantastic and while the story starts off a little.... disjointed (as in things skip from one event to the next with almost no segue) it has steadily improved to the point where it is really fluid and fun to watch unfold. and if you have a worry with how something is going to turn out no problem you will almost certainly know the answer in just a chapter or two after the problem so no anti...........................................ci. .........................................pa....... .........................tion :)

Through random searching I stumbled onto this series. I haven't read a manhwa before but (despite the different cultures and whatnot) this one proved to be a very good read. I read up to ch47 where things are starting to get interesting.

Renegade334
2007-12-10, 18:05
And I'm afraid we won't see ch48 before some time, as it looks like most staff members working on UxU are busy elsewhere...most probably finals and the like. Not that I can blame them for that...as I'm pitted against the same predicament.

As a side note, UxU Vol.8 should be up for sale this month...hopefully we'll get to know what happened after the umpteenth cliffhanger (and that one was quite humongous, to tell the truth) that served as Vol.7's conclusion.namely, Jin-ho falling off a cliff on that countryside trip and Sunseng-nim trying to revive him.Amusingly enough, the competition between the half-siblings seems to do more good to each other than first expected, although it gave off a lot of sparks in the beginning. I guess that a few chapters from now the enmity between the two will be reduced to mere ribbing, unless Jin-ho truly becomes a genuine source of conflict for the half-sisters...which is already the case, but in a more...competitive/teasing way.

hmm... the release for this manga is quite slow...

EDIT: and yes, this is thread RESURRECTION!

ellifeedn
2008-02-14, 21:44
I wonder what will happen when Caroline leaves to go back home. It will be some time until that's translated I suppose.


@supahem: I thought it was resurrection when a thread hasn't been replied to for six months.

Supah Em
2008-02-15, 01:26
^ more like thread necromancy.

9 months = 13 replies

its like 1 reply per 4 chapters.

far as i can tell they are translating volume 7 and 8 is the latest volume out in korea so maybe they just aren't in a hurry to get to the end of the volume and make us wait even longer before volume 9 starts coming out. Then again maybe they lost staff for this manga who knows, they are faster than the company doing the print copies though who are slower than mollassas in winter.

we've discovered that the release rates for this manhwa(korean manga) is about 1 every 2 weeks, we've decided to pick this series up to make the release dates much more chapter.

dont expect a HQ+++ release because we're in it for the speed and we're trying to ante up the release rates from 1 every 2 weeks to about a chapter every 3-5 days.

Yeah, K-H manga has too many projects at once, so the releases are slow.
However there are not so many chapters out there anyway, think you guys will catch up very soon.

i could care less about the quality as long as it's legible i'm just grateful someone's doing it

Good to hear :)

Btw with this being Korean I guess the chances of an anime is fuck all yeah? :(

Supah Em
2008-02-20, 04:36
this is more suited to a korean melodrama though...

its chances of being adapted to an anime is practically nil...

unless it gets very popular

I haven't heard of any manhwa being animated in Korea, but lots of popular drama are adapted from manhwa. Full House and Goong, just to name a few wildly popular ones.

Mykas
2008-02-20, 17:31
in most western countries an older woman with a younger man will get some strange looks and comments, in most asian countries it is even more so, i can't speak for all of them but i know for a fact in china that for a man to be married, he needs to uasually have his own appartemt/house already paid for, he needs to have a pretty good sum of money usually around the equivilant of 10K$ US to give the brides family, and he needs to have some sort of job that is halfway decent to get the aproval of the girls parents. i would venture a guess that korea is not all that different in that men are expected to be older so that they can provide all of this to thier wives. it is pretty common to see girls around 24 or so with men that are well over 30. i understand that for some of you this may upset your moral apllecart because that doesn't fit with your view of the world, but that is how asian culture is and it is reflected in many of the manga and manwha out there. check out ai yori aoshi sometime for a look at the japanese side of this.

UxU is pretty decent... im not gonna say its the best or anything like that... the art's really nice and all

but plot wise... it just.... does... not... flow well... at all

granted its released bi-monthly and that can lead to some explanation... but not all of it...
am i the only one who thinks these last two chapters just kinda finish off without really FEELING like it?

if the end of 54 is supposed to be cliffhangerish then it failed because they just walk off together to go to the store to get beer... no reaction from either of them about "oh its just the two of us alone "doki doki"

and not to mention a few other chapters that just kinda end... and then when the next chapter rolls around theres this huge chunk of time thats been glossed over... prime example is after hae young injures her knee and jin ho picks her up and walks her up the flight of stairs.... end chapter... and next chapter is plop! right back at school... no analysis from either of the characters... no thoughts... no reactions... no development.... absolutely NOTHING... all we get is caroline saying she hae young was in a good mood...

im just really annoyed at this manhwa because the pacing is so off to me....

Supah Em
2008-02-27, 07:33

i like the characters... i like the story... my annoyance stems from the execution in conveying the story...

it seems that my words were taken out of context.

what i mean is if you're annoyed its better for the reader to drop the series early on because it is likely that it will only generate more annoyance later on. i do that with some series then return after the series is finished.

im not being mad or critical or judgemental here. im just offering advice(albeit a misunderstood one) in which i can relate.

푸우아~~~, I gots so pisst off, I decided to chime in my two cents (if that's the correct idiom) at crazytje, the newest scanlation team for UxU 54. After searchin' around, I comes across the raws at http://crazytje.be/index.php?r=125, so I was a bit satiated (since my Korean is improving, and I have Google's shoddy yet excusable "Language Tool" to fill in my vocabulary gaps).

Unfortunately for people who HAVE NOT been born in Seoul, HAVE NOT lived in the country for six years, HAVE NOT moved to America to escape financial burden excruciated by economic scandal that preluded to the East Asian crisis of 1997, HAVE NOT had to settle for learning Korean through word of mouth and other self-didactic means because of a slow-yet-steady rise from the brink of lower-middle class to stable mid-middle class that smothered the time and attention of both parents and sibling, and HAVE NOT figured a niche of friendship with quite a humble and amicable people known as "FOB"s ...

(whew.........................)

You'll have to make do with re-reading from scratch (which is what I initially did, and I can't say that I regret it).

try reading from page one (and prepare to go, "Oh yeah, huh!!!" with all the Unbalanced goodness imparted upon you ) all the way to when they go to the opera and have their "city light" moment, then jump to ch 24 where the PURE AWESOMENESS happens; and if you loved 진호's Heero-Yuy-like transformation, jump to (I think) 34~35, and watch that skirt-stealin' bitch get [I]knocked the FUCK out

The RAW Korean versions are out all the way to vol 8, which is like Chapter 62, yet "unforeseen circumstances" have retarded release of chapter 55. If you're willing to see the raws for seul-Dieu-savent-quoi ([only-]God-knows-what) reason, go to, again, http://crazytje.be/index.php?r=125.

ffnovice7
2008-03-02, 19:06
Damn, you guys are good; right on target! About by rambling, I just wanted to direct people to the raw versions of UxU; sorry if I didn't "contribute" anything.

Actually, I feel like "contributing" right now: Jin-Ho is a deep, complex version of Heero Yuy (with more than enough physical resemblance), Hae-Young has a withering misandry that is about to be cracked by none other than the man who can with the plan, Ji-Soo/Young-Gi/Ami will contribute greatly to the drama of relations between friends, teacher(s), and students, and Caroline will be the Hae-Young in different circumstances and intent. My favourite chapters are posted in the spoiler up above, my favourite character is (obviously) Jin-Ho, and maybe Carrie.

Supah Em
2008-03-02, 19:52
the series wont be ending soon as there are still some time left before carrie's departure and i think there will be more events after that

this could get a live action show provided that it gets more popular as the series progresses, and yes, like most korean melodramas this is quite a hair pulling series where it leaves you hanging for most of the important events.


@ ffnovice

now i get it. thanks =)

but as for the heero yuy comparison, i think he doesnt resemble jin ho except maybe the looks

ffnovice7
2008-03-04, 03:34
That's true; Heero was (for the most part) quite selfish in the beginning of GW, thinking of only his crimes and trying to off himself without thinking of how others would react (i.e. Relena). It's only when he started to actually care about anything and realize that his mistakes are just that, mistakes, does he actually have the will to survive (pardon the pun from the last series episode).

But I digress; the main reason why I compare Jin-Ho to Heero is, admittedly, the looks. However, it's when Jin-Ho goes to the clinic for the pregnancy test, and when he defends his friends against school gangs, and when he does everything in his power to back up how he acts with his actions, and when he exudes a manly, responsible, and, most importantly, MATURE air that I think he resembled Heero, in which they are both men who act WAY ahead of their age.

On another note, I love that Un Ami is the cold and detached translation and semblance of Relena to this series, and how when she faces off against Hee... Jin-Ho, they seem to have the least amount of respect for each other. It's refreshing in that in GW, it's basically understood that Heero and Relena have utter admiration and respect for arguably no one but each other. The contrast in relationships between 1xR and Jin-Ho and Ami makes me appreciate both series just a little bit more.

On yet another note, I liked (Ch. 55) how they corrected the confession by Jin-Ho to "love" than "like," yet I am still miffed that they started calling Carrie "Catherine." Chapter 55 was really good in that it reviews the significant instances between Jin-Ho and Hae-Young, reevaluates the relationship status quo, and sets up for the next few, quite climactic chapters. Happy readin', 모두들!

Cadorna
2008-03-04, 20:13

Supah Em
2008-03-04, 21:29
@ ffnovice

yes, the catherine part was quite perplexing. i was not the one translating the chapters before chap 54 so when i translated that part is seems quite odd for them to address her as that.

@ cadorna

chapter 62 for the raws. bimonthly release(painful, i know). we finished translating most of the remaining chapters and all that's left is the cleaning and quality checks

ffnovice7
2008-03-04, 22:03
Ah, so you guys do the scanlation jobs? I gots ta say, "Top job." I really won't complain about the slow releases; it comes with the territory, and anyone who says otherwise is a noobish nig...glet who has no idea what s/he's talkin'bout or a person who actually CAN do what they say, yet I have yet to find anybody of the sort.

The teams have, so far, cleansed and translated everything with great expertise, with negligible mistakes here or there (nothing that can't be fixed, though). On the note of the team, however, I have a request; please reply in consideration of taking in a native Korean speaker for proofreading, quality control, and other minor detail-touch-up jobs (i.e. yours truly, me).

But....

I won't lie here, and I won't lie if you ever decide to contact me; I am 17 years-old, I am a senior still in High School, my Korean level is equivalent to one of an eighth-grader, I haven't even set foot in Korea for about eight years, and I have no experience in scanlation whatsoever. All I can bring to the table is dedication, willpower, work for no pay, moderate competency, and resourcefulness. I don't ask for immediate acceptance; I'll wait on a list if I have to. I just feel that I can contribute in some way, shape, or form to providing English-readers with manhwa at a faster time than if I weren't there to help.

Supah Em

http://crazytje.be/forum

here you can post here for inquiries, im sure the reply will be fast



here's an insider note: we release once in 5 days or in a week because of the slow release of the manhwa itself. its not that we are holding back, its just that we are trying to keep the releases in an orderly pace.

Quick question about the manga's release schedule, you said bimonthly which means once every 2 months, looking at the starting date of 2005 don't you mean fortnightly? Anyway chapter 56 was quite good and you're right about it ending on a cliffhanger, thanks for the release!

Owaranai Destiny
2008-03-05, 23:06
UxU has always been laden with cliffhangers. :heh:

While I did expect something like that to happen in chapter 56, I didn't really expect how seriously injured Jin-Ho might be.

Supah Em
2008-03-06, 00:36
minor hint: expect another kiss

@ westlo

i dont know the concrete answer to your query but i'll try to know later.

@ Mykas

KMTS has HQ++ scans, ours is just medium to High quality because we focus more on speed rather than the quality.

Mykas
2008-03-06, 01:00
i knew that but i didn't wanna insult anyone especially since i am enjoying the relative speed of releases and the quality is far better than a lot of manga scanlations out there.

good for you guys..

hope you can make it as fast you can till ch. 62 (just finished reading the raw) :D

i like the art, i like the tension between the student-teacher as it might be something you are dreamed of, but i don't want many fighting scene coz this would remind me of GTO

as of now, it's been okay. maybe they should release more often :p

Supah Em
2008-03-11, 02:01

Owaranai Destiny
2008-03-11, 06:51
Is there no discussion about the next chapter (Thanks supahem!) other than when the releases are out? :p

Anyway, nice little chapter there. Shows quite a couple of things that are working in Jin-Ho's and Hae-Young's favour, as well as the indication that Carrie truly does care for her sister.

Mykas
2008-03-11, 08:07
she (Carrie) does? i got the impression that she was more concerned they were alone together than that they could be hurt or lost.... maybe it was just me. on one site that rates books based on number of downloads it was an 80 for comparision naruto was a 23 and hajime no ippo (with one of the largest dl libraries) was an 18. what does this tell you? UxU is still a young title and gaining steam and frankly speaking it is a harem title so you will see a lot less discussion unless it somehow becomes the phenomenon that Suzuka manged to be, if you don't believe that just go see how many posts were made for it.

Westlo
2008-03-11, 08:58
I just finished reading it and far as I'm concerned she was obviously worried for their wellbeing. There wasn't a inch of jealousy showing on her face and remember her intentions is to get them together in the first place. Also she says "Jin'ho you're okay right? Even if there is a mishap you're protecting my sister right?".

Anyway that was a great chapter, it's a pity most harem leads aren't even 1/8th the man Jin'ho is, also lol @ the cpr...

Come to think of it, I have never considered him to be a harem lead, probably because he has ten times the guts and GAR of most the harem male leads I have seen combined currently. :heh:

Anyway, if this is in regards to whether Carrie still feels jealous in that kind of a grave situation or not...Give it a few more chapters, and the evidence will show. ;)

I'm betting she will end up being jealous but I'm positive she was worried during chapter 57.

is this going to be a long discussion like suzuka was?

coz, i guess i 'm more into this manhwa like suzuka was. i tried to follow ai kora just to find out that i skipped many chapters since the story can't get into my preference. :(

as of cpr, lol. i won't tell myself it was a cpr if i were him. no cpr is done while sitting :D
still, it's okay if the writer wants to drag a little bit of that kiss

For some reason I really like this manhwa(sp?) Maybe because finally the male lead isn't an indecisive dorky lame ass brat unlike 90% of all animes/mangas I know. His character can even fit into a shoujo series lol.

/And lol at the CPR. Thats a lame excuse there haha. She french kissed him and you call that a CPR. Jin-ho might be laughing his ass off/smirking about that lol.

Uh...Jin-Ho was the one who voiced out that he thought it was CPR, which in effect brought about the retort from Hae-Young that he 'was still a kid'.

the full volume 8 of this title is out and it was good on a sad note for those of us who like to actually spend money on titles we like, infinity who publishes this title has started doing thier books as e-books I honestly can't imagine spending money on a bunch of pdf files. I am not sure how many of you bought hard copies of this title in english but they are really well done, each one has had color pages and a wrap around dust jacket. it has been a quality production that i couldn't wait to get my hands on and now it looks like that won't happen anymore....

Looks like Hae-Young has got it bad for Jin-Ho. I wonder what will happen to Ji-Soo now that she knows the two like each other. Ami has to try and ruin the relationship so that she can have Hae-Young to herself.

I wonder if Hae-Young's older sister will play a bigger part in the plot.

maybe I am honestly expecting this manga to have an unhappy ending, i have pointed it out before but korea has compulsory military service for men at the end of high school. i just don't see how things can for out for him and miss na, especially when you factor in ji soo who is eventually gonna stand up for herself. I would love to see a happily ever after ending but i am unsure of how it could come to be.

Owaranai Destiny
2008-03-19, 11:05
Wow at the recent developments. It's a supposed silver lining for Jin-Ho and Hae-Young, but I think otherwise.

Poor Ji-Soo. She never seems to be able to win, does she? :( As much as Ami seems hateable, she's only so to people who don't consider things from a point of view aside from the more or less confirmed coupling. In a way, she's a fascinating character, despite how she looked and acted previously.

I won't deny that Ji-Soo probably had a dark side to her-Heck, who doesn't? Ami acted to bring that out when she was waiting for them to come back. Aside from personal agenda, I'm not too sure why she would of all things encourage Ji-Soo in that way, and she did it again in chapter 62, only in a more 'normal' way.

All it takes is just a hug and expressions of concern for Hae-Young, and you know that the 'rivalry' wasn't real in the first place. :heh:

Anyway, Mykas, it actually depends on how the characters go about doing what they want to do. My country also has compulsory military service for up to 2 years with re-service for a period of 10. It's probably the best time to test whether the feelings for your significant other are really that strong in a sense.

Mykas

i really can't speak to how people in korea behave culturally over this issue except to point out that this was brought up in the very beginning of the first book. And they seem to have a very strict class (meaning social position) structure based on age. I suppose it could test the "mettle" of the relationship but most likely it would just end it.... i think so anyway.

I wouldn't blame ya; it does seem like quite the odds. Even Onegai Teacher, which I see abso-positive-ly NO resemblance to UXU :rolleyes: (although both are phenomenal and probably not rip offs of each other; the genre is growing), had only a five-year age difference, albeit they look quite a bit more May-December than Hae Young and Jin Ho.

But I digress: although it seems most likely that a break up would seem most realistic and fitting, thinking so is WILDLY belittling the raconteur skills of Im Dal Young, the author, who has time-and-time-again shown us that UXU is delightfully different from most other manhwas/mangas, regardless of RCCR (RaceCultureCreedorReligion).

Maybe a happy ending is what we really want, but we're all too afraid to believe because of what usually happens when authors botch it; here's to hopin' that he does not.

Same here; I would have thought at least the raws would be out. Maybe they're scanlating a bunch of vol 8 to release it at yet another steady pace again 'cuz, you know, we obviously cannot control our reading pace (although in the pro-pace's defense, I personally could NOT control myself; UXU is really that fuckin' good).

...by? I thought someone actually went to Korea periodically and got the raws and sent 'em back or brought them back to... wherever the scanlation centre(s) are. I'm not tryin' to sound like I'm complainin', as the last time I went to Korea was BEFORE they started putting solid doors for the entrances to the cockpit, but it seems a bit delayed more so than "technical difficulties" can excuse. Is the exact problem just that there is no raw Ch. 63 at hand with the scanlators, or something else entirely? Please let .... anyone know.

I started reading UxU yesterday evening and just couldn't stop. I finished today at ch. 62 and it's painfull to know it might be a long time before we get see new release. :(

I've been looking for this kinda of manga (or manhwa whatever... ) for a long time but couldn't find anything like it. :( Unlike those other manga's where it's one dorky guy that gets attention of all the pretty girls or it's about one character that can't make up their mind, which u see way too frequently, this story isn't about that. I love good stories about forbidden / impossible love and nice art and this manga has both.

The only thing I'm fearing for is that the story gets dragged too long cos atm Jin-Ho Myung and Hae-Young Nah 's feelings are clear for a while already, only the teacher doesn't want to admit it. Though it's really satisying to see her gradually break.

At the chapter with the mountain trip, I thought this was the turning point but it seems she 's covered it up again. :( Please don't let this turn out into another Suzuka with houndreds of chapters before they finally get together and the the manga end.

I really wish that part of the manga is about the 2 main characters that have chosen for each other and the both of them try their best to maintain / improve their relationship, break the taboos and fight against everything that stands in their way.

Hope there'll be more releases of next chapters soon, cos imho this is the best unfinished romance manga since Suzuka and at about the same level.

Nice too see that we will get some new chapters in the near future, I've been hanging for more XD I recently reread the first 8 volumes and it was just as fun as the first time. Looks like the Ji-Soo situation should be wrapped up very quickly and Carrie was put into place in 62. Now we just have the final relationship boss in Jae Gyong to go... I was thinking she should've been in it more but she was actually in the first 5 volumes quite a bit.

Anyway a poster on AOD was posting some changes from the Korean to Japanese version... Vol 2 gets a new cover.

Pretty sure there isn't 30 more chapters. Regardless, there are no raws past volume 8 (ch 64 is the last) that i've seen in any of the usual places. Its published in a monthly korean magazine, and new bound volumes come out every 6 months or so, so I wouldn't expect volume 9 until september.

Well, I got a bit impatient and decided to check out the raws for vol.8. Has anyone read this yet? I can't read hangul, so the best I can do is guess what the characters are talking about.

Ji Soo is on bitch mode again? But it seems she says something significant to Jin Ho at least. That is, after interrupting what should've been an interesting moment between Hae Young and Jin Ho.

I wonder if she confessed or something, then gets rejected later on. Regardless of whatever it is she said, she's still not letting this one go.

Ye I feel sorry for Ji-Soo as well but don't despair... the moment she gets officially rejected is the point when Young-Gi can come into play. If those two become a couple it would create a great harmonic situation, not very likely until the end though since this series is living from the drama. About Hae-young and Jin-Ho, well of course I'd love to see them get together (official couple or married, doesn't matter) but i'm not too familiar with the authors works and how they usually end so i have my doubts.

Lemme get this straight, it takes a month or 6 months for this damn thing to update? o.O cause I can believe it since I've rarely seen UxU update (BESIDES 63 LOL)

It's a shame, cause as far as love/etc, this is overall by FAR the best manga/manhwa/etc has to offer. And whoever draws this along with all those other series, that guy is godly. He's like the ultimate fanservice without making it feel unprofessional. Colored pages and the like all feel very with the times, kinda like new cars now-a-days. Whereas with naruto you go ugh, and most romances/etc you go T_T and have to rely on stuff like Special A CHAPTER 36 HIKARI SMILE to lure people in.

KMTS releases a new chapter every 2 weeks or so, they take their time releasing new volumes because they know that there is a long wait between new volumes. They can't do magazine scans of new chapters because the Korean mag is hard/impossible to get for most, much less get someone to scan it. And since it's a monthly series, it takes a few months for enough chapters to be released so that a new tankobon volume can be released.

GTO has something like this as well, even though Onizuka doesn't really beat the crap out of a girl. It just expresses the same idea, that when it comes to plain old raw justice or facing the consequences of your actions, it doesn't matter what your sex is.

I pretty much just asked why there was up to 62 chapters for about 4-5 months, and then finally a 63 comes out. What no one really figured out, was to answer rageless did speed scans, and KMTS did quality ones, and that other guy up there thankfully explained their reason for slow progress.

I could care less if this series took a year to produce one chapter or if the scanlators felt like doing one chapter every two years, but I don't have to word every single one of my thoughts to be all candy coated and neutralized in case I thoughtlessly hurt someone over the INTERNET. You can even think that my "bad attitude" is a compliment because of my interest towards the series, which is better than 90% of other scanlator works that don't even get attention.

=[ it's amazing how well korea is isolated then if people can't get magazine scans.

Nothing too suprising, still i wanted to yell to Ji-soo: ' C'mon snap out of it before your heart gets really hurt!' since she's one of the more likable characters to me. Well guess she's the first 'real' love rival for Hae-Young, i never saw Carrie as one since i always got the impression she was just trying to push Hae-Youngs and Jin-Hos relationship further. I just hope Ji-Soo keeps it fair play or even better just grabs Jin-Hos best friend to spare us her misery :upset:

With this chapter marking the end of volume 8 it's time for the REAL waiting i guess...

Hae Young's other rivals, for some reason, either possess a dark streak or are somewhat motivated by malice—even Ji Soo. With that in mind, I think it would become interesting if Carrie were to become a love rival. Her relationship with Hae Young would pose an interesting aspect to the conflict, not to mention her character so far has this very light-hearted and cheerful side to it. Here's hoping that if this does happen, she won't become so mean-spirited in the so-called game of love like the others have so far.

Way to go Ji-Soo! that was some spirit she showed back there, hope she keeps trying. The best part was "sometimes look at your sides, dont just keep looking forwards" I thought she acted pretty cool. It would actually make the manga more interesrting if Jin-Ho actually started going out with someone other than Hae-Young.

The magazine its released in is Korean and doesn't get scanned, so kmts has to wait for a new tankobon to be released. They will have enough chapters to put into a tankobon in about 2 months, so as usual, don't expect volume 9 until December.

spoiler for chapter 65


based on my mediocre chinese skills, hae-young becomes uncertain of where her relationship is going with jin ho after ji soo talks with her. jin ho asks for a ride from hae-young after. She gets upset at him for pushing for that kiss before. But then at the end, shes asks him to go to a room together?

It's so full of angst i can't remember a chapter when there was no one having a shocked look on his/her face. Anyway, can't help you - it just reminded me that this series sometimes was a real pain for every second sentence of dialogue put an awful stunned look on someone's face even tough the characters should know each other at least a little by now but still get owned by anyone saying things that should be freaking obvious. :frustrated: ...

Read chapter 65:
Seems like Sunseng-neem is breaking and finally admits to herself she loves Jin-Ho, though she's responding the wrong way. I'm sure Jin-Ho will refuse to go to bed with her or at least refuse to go all the way, since she's forcing herself at the moment.
Once again, I'm reminded of how I love this manhwa. No other manhwa or manga at the moment leaves me with this kind of tension after reading a new chapter.

I know the raws are out till chapter 70 or something, but I'm trying to resist the urge to read them untill the english chapters are out, though I won't last for very long probably. :)

Great chapter, can't wait for the next and I'm pretty sure it won't be long untill the others are translated.

Hey can someone explain this to me, coz I m a bit confused did Hae-young say she will leave the school and forget about Jin-Ho if she doesnt come to love him within that time? Or she will take a one moth leave from school to consider her feelings for him as I dont get why she Already said Good-Bye to Jin-Ho, which one is the correct explanation? Anyways this was a good chapter so Hae-Young still isnt sure she loves him or she wants to test how mature and serious Jin-Ho is about all this cant wait for the next chapters. Jin-Ho mentioned that he already loved someone and got hurt, I wonder who was the girl

Well...I think that your first guess is correct. I don't think there's any point for Hae-Yong to take leave for 1 month. I'm not sure why she said 'goodbye' first but I guess it's just an early goodbye in case she choose the 2nd option. The girl who got Jin-Ho heartbroken was probably Jae-Kyung. Hope that helps. :) Can't wait for the next chapter as well.

Actually it's the same situation as before just with a countdown to add to the drama which unfortunately means it's a cliffhanger over several chapters since anything up to the moment of her decision seems irrelevant (except for maybe Jin-Ho's acts to finally win her heart which is nothing new as well). The only good thing i see about this ultimatum is that at its end could lead to a whole new level of their relationship maybe afterwards showing the hardships of it or, even better although i still really like this series, mark the end of the story. Maybe that's only me but when it comes to drama series i like them to end soon at some point when the same issues are being dealt with over and over again.

Actually i don't get what your main point is but i'll try to explain what i meant.

Her doubts about a possible relationship were clearly presented in front of us the whole time: difference in age, student-teacher relationship, him possibly just playing with her. All of this has been already covered several times as was Jin-ho's determination to try to overcome those doubts by showing her his feelings are true. So what's going to change now with the ultimatum? He will try even harder to crush her doubts that is all i see, the real change will come when that month is over and the time of decision has come.

i guess since these matters are the main theme of this manhwa we can safely say that we might see this topic (and their arguements) very often otherwise the end is very near

but the bold one? Does she really think that way....i doubt it! (pls give me links if ever stated in the manhwa)

Give it her all? Sometimes i think you're talking about #65. They pretty much parted in bad terms in #66 since she still doesn't know whether she is really in love with him or just favoring one of her students due to common experiences topping that by stating this decision is out of his hands. All those 3 issues i mentioned have been covered in this chapter by her expressing great discomfort for she still sees them as obstacles, that's what i meant by her still having doubts.

Alright you seem only to be able to mock one (for which i told you was further evidence in past chapters) of several arguments of mine while presenting none by yourself that would support your position, sorry but that's like admitting defeat to me. It's not that i don't want to understand your point of view but you're just stubbornly contradicting without reason so we better stop it here before it gets ugly. Also i never mentioned this series to get boring i just complained about some aspects despite still loving it but not acting like a rabid fanboy, what's wrong about that?

On a last note here's one of the other 'earlier' moments you were craving for: #44 p4 : "Whether this kid's a good boy or whether he'll become a player later..."

There was also the situation after Carry kisses Jin-Ho, Hae-Young yells at him for obvious reasons.

Ummm, 1 month to earn her love. That's pretty much a very easy device to say THIS SERIES IS COMING TO IT'S FINAL CLIMAX. Romance series usually split two ways, one which ends after the final hook up and has a little epilogue, or one that shows the couple dealing with their life after they end up together. I'm hoping it's the latter, but the fact that there is a former option makes me worry. Easy enough to understand?

I guess my waiting has paid off a bit. I just read some of the latest chapters.

But Jesus Christ, what is wrong with the female characters in this story? (Caroline is the only light and voice of reason right now.)

It seems every rival of Hae-Young is out to scheme her way into Jin-Ho's heart, whereas Hae-Young herself has been showing a "don't mess with me, bitch!" side to her personality whenever she starts to mean business—usually, when she comes face to face with her rivals. Can't really blame her for that; however, she's currently coping with conflicting feelings of her own, that along with the twists and schemes only serves to up the suspense even more in an already frustrating, slow pace.

Man, Hae-Young reminds me why women can be so confusing at times. Don't even get me started on Jae-Kyung. Treating a guy like that will of course hurt!

Heck, I bet the last hurdle will be that school board guy, the one who was a student of Hae-Young's mother a long time ago. And I bet with the power and influence he has, his arc will be just as frustrating and yet too suspenseful to put down.

One thing's for sure: you really need patience for this manhwa. *slams head on table out of sheer frustration*

I think we have to wait for six months for the next chapter, if I'm not mistaken. Chapter 72 seems to be last chapter for Volume 9, and it'll take six months for the next scanned chapters to be available as the release of the next tankoubon will take that long.

kujoe
2008-12-01, 07:03
If I'm not mistaken, there is indeed a serialized magazine that prints out chapters in a more regular schedule, but the scanlators have no access to these, so they resort to acquiring the printed volumes instead.

I'm not sure about the six months part, really, but that's what the editor says in the editor's note after Ch 72.

Just to put it out there, I'm not complaining about the rate of releases considering what they have to work with. I was just expressing how the drama and suspense keeps up in a relatively cliffhanger, slow pace. With regard to the drama and story, that can actually be considered as a good thing.

Oh at last Hae-Yung admitted her feelings for Jin-Ho, that really made my day but I wonder what Jae-kyung has in store for Jin-Ho and if it will make his feeling for Hae-Yung waver a bit. However I would Jae-Kyung deserves the pain coz she didnt realize how special Jin-Ho is, before losing out to Hae-Yung. But I really loved this chapter 72. Anyone have any ideas on how this story will progress from now on? this is because I was thinking the biggest hurdle for their relationship was Hae-Yung not admitting her feelings but now that she has confessed, how will the mangaka lengthen the story now or do you guys think this manhwa is nearing its ending but seriously,,, 6 months for the net volume...damn

Zero has a sequel, which seems to be pretty lighter than its prequel. But mystery mature seinen has a tragic flag on top. UnbalanceX2 is ecchi drama shounen.

The only series he has completed is "Zero", haven't read it myself. He has a ton of ongoing series though, 6 or 7 I believe.

Last time i checked, it was 7. Because he only writes, not draw. His stuffs are very cliche, but still good to read from time to time

Freezing is kind of unique, I also like Onihime and Aflame Inferno, although the later is a bit slow to be scanlated..

I just found out Zero ended in a tragic way, so I m scared now for UnbalancexUnbalance

Tragic way for the siblings? I was hoping there would be some kind of happy ending for them... :( Im not sure if i want to finish reading this manwah...

Back on topic... i think UxU will have a ending with Jae and Jin Hoo together... the thing is if they will oficially go out before he finish school or after.

Jae..? You mean Jae-Kyung, the senior from before?

She was introduced rather late compared to a few other characters, so I think her chances are quite small.

I think incube typed incorrectly he meant Hae-Yung instead of Jae but wrote down Jae. Anyways, I think Jae-Kyung is Hae-Yung's biggest rival at the moment as she is the one Jin-Ho originally loved and I think she is gonna show something to Jin-Ho in the video room that might make Jin-Ho confused about his feelings. The other girl Ji-Soo doesnt stand a chance as Jin-Ho doesnt like her and will never return her feelings

The main character is really hot-blooded and I think he is too naive. just be honest and declare your love? Something only happens in manga.

well this is a manga wanna-be manwah ^_^ After all you dont see that many student dating teachers being the guy 7 years younger and still in highschool...

and yeah i think i wrote the wrong name... i meant the teacher and Jin Hoo ending together xD

Yes, you definitely need it.

I think we have to wait for six months for the next chapter, if I'm not mistaken. Chapter 72 seems to be last chapter for Volume 9, and it'll take six months for the next scanned chapters to be available as the release of the next tankoubon will take that long.

Thanks for the info, even bad info is welcome info. So I'm going to need to wait 6 months till I know how this predicament will end. Why do I think Hae-Yung is going to freeze her ass of? He's going to be a "bad boy" returning late.

He's in second year of college, so 20 is about right, but i'm not sure about the teacher. She certainly doesn't look 27 :D

gaoyuanyuan1
2008-12-05, 20:10
No, I think he is in third year of high school so probably 18 and the teacher should only be 25. Well, I think a little too old. Why not 22?

Magin
2008-12-05, 20:13
... it's been stated that Jin-Ho is somewhere around 19, if not close to 20 years old... and I think Hae-young is in her mid to late 20's

2008-12-15, 21:17
in reality, this relationship most likely would never happen even if you are a 25-years old high school teacher :D
but the author has made this manhwa fun to read and even we can expect them to be together. otherwise, it might gone wrong, imo :p

the sad thing is i have to wait for another six month :(
does tankubon is the only way for this scanlation to be shared?

Magin
2008-12-15, 21:22
well, tankubon is the only form of raws that the translators are able to get their hands on. Apparently, it does come out in a magazine, but the translators don't get the mag

Dark Mage
2008-12-16, 01:03
Actually in reality something like this does happen coz here in Australia a highschool kid fell in love with his teacher and they later got married after he graduated and then there was a case where a highschool guy from here went over to the U.S as an exchange student and fell in love with his teacher over there and she came back with him to Australia to live with, it was all over the papers. So yeah we do get stuff like this in real life although they are few

darkgalford
2008-12-16, 04:04
wow, what a quite story you have there, dark mage...

well, yeah, stuff like this is something rare..that's why it's on your papers coz usually it's so hard for a woman to depend on a guy who is a lot younger (moreover a high school student) economically or mentally..

unless your neighborhood is apathetic with what's going on with their surrounding, the woman will doubt that guy...............this is likely what happened to nae-hyoung, which despite her clear interest to jin ho she don't want to admit it.

I think one important difference you guys are missing here is that jin ho is an adult. Of course one thing that I think most people keep forgetting is that korea has compullsory military service for males (hinted at right at the beginning when the two ladies are complaining about guys thier age) if you have ever watched any korean cinema (My sassy girl comes to mind) you might have seen this as a romantic angst theme or one that affects the male female dynamic, it seems to be that much older males and younger females are often paired because that is who ends up in college together.

No, the magazine scans are available. There have been no chapters of UxU since the last book was issued.

Magin
2009-01-03, 20:09
... from what I understand, the ones who translate this don't get the magazines is what I meant there

and does that mean that UxU is on Hiatus? Or did it simply end? (either way, this guy's doing several stories at once, which might explain a thing or two)

Very true and it is quite common to see korean tv series in wich ppl with a huge gape in age get together... one that i can remember atm is"I am Sam" where a teacher (Sam in korean means teacher) falls in love with his student...

Great manga this one is. Though, I'm actually hoping that Jin-Ho ends up with either Ji-Soo or Jae-Kyung. As I find the teacher to be much more immature thatn both of them. As far as the age thing goes, it really doesn't matter to me. But they seem to fit his character more than Hae-Young IMO. Granted she looks better (physically), but I don't think that makes much of a difference to Jin-Ho in the first place.

So when do we get the final chapter 73 (I assume it is the last chapter or next to last) ?

And did it usually always take this long to release a chapter (Yep i found this manga today and red it all in 1 day :/)

CygnusX
2009-02-11, 17:55
Nono! This can't be the last chapter! There isn't a single running romance manga at the moment I like more than this one. Even the other running manhwa's of the same author don't come close. (Hint: name me some manga that u think is at least as good :p)

Now that the both of them finally don't lie to themselves any more and admit they like each other, I'd like to see their relation develop past this point. At the moment they have only talked about future potential problems in their life. They haven't actually experienced them for real yet but at least now they may be ready to deal with them by supporting each other.

So lemme get this straight they release full volumes every x months ?

Man0warr
2009-02-12, 10:18
Yes, whenever a certain amount of new chapters get released they make a new volume, can take 6-10 months though, as IM Dal Young is a busy man and sometimes doesn't have a chapter to release every month.

I was wondering if anyone's read chapter 68 in volume 9 of the manga. If so I was wondering if I anyone knows what Jae-Kyung meant.

The scene where Jae-Kyung and the Homeroom teacher had a little confrontation in front of the main character. Where she ordered him to get in the car with her, and they left Jae-Kyung behind and she drove off. Jea-Kyung thought to herself with what seems to be a smile, as they drove off...

"That... female teacher... I was wondering if perhaps she did... She really did, basically..."

What's the meaning on that? Coz I feel as though there's several ways of interpreting what she said, but I was curious if it's just something I am just not getting.

You're right, one can interpret it in different ways, personally i think she meant something like: So that teacher really fell in love with Jin-Ho, hence her jealous reaction.

Can anyone interpret what Hae-Youngs thoughts mean in chapter 39 because it felt like she was narrating her life story to someone else about a love that didnt work out because of social barriers. Its kinda like how a grandma tells about her life to her grandchildren. So I was thinking that this all happened in Hae-Young's past and she was reminiscing about the dashing boy who made her fall for him. So I am confused if tis story is in the present or is it taking in the past. The reason for my thinking like this is, here are the llinks -

http://www.mangatoshokan.com/read/unbalance2/11/39/22
http://www.mangatoshokan.com/read/unbalance2/11/39/23

I have read all the chapters upto 72 and I know that she really has fallen in love with him but this is the part which made me confused. Dont you think Hae-Young is just simply thinking about the past? I hope its not like that though because I want to see everything work out between them but if its set in the past I think it didnt work out in the end from Hae-Young's thoughts. Any comments guys?

kujoe
2009-03-07, 00:34
Her thoughts of looking back could come from any point in the manga's present. It doesn't have to be an actual looking back from the far future per se. If it were a continuous narrative style, then perhaps this would be more plausible, but as it is it's just used as a means of dramatic emphasis. If memory serves me right, it isn't a recurring convention of the manhwa.

Moreover, it doesn't necessarily connote that her past was that of a failed albeit bittersweet relationship. In fact, if this narrative style is actually a flashback of Hae Young's, it only serves to drive the events forward by making the reader curious of past events even more. The end result is still pretty straightforward, as you still have to keep reading on in order to find out what will happen next. It's actually quite common as a storytelling technique.

Dark Mage
2009-03-07, 23:43
I just read chapter 65 again and found something interesting. It seems Hae-Young had someone called Yeonha that she liked in the past. Who do you think that is? Any guesses because it sounds like bad news for Jin-Ho. Here -

http://www.mangatoshokan.com/read/unbalance2/11/65/18

And here I was thinking Hae-Young didnt trust any men after her father's betrayal but it turns out she was pretty devoted to that Yeonha guy if she didnt like anyone besides him. I wonder if e will make an appearence in the future chapters. It would really complicate things that are already so messed up

because the writer is way too busy multitasking
