The God of High School [Manhwa]
http://img259.imageshack.us/img259/6...choolcover.jpg
Serialized as a webtoon on Naver. Author: Yong Jae Park Artist: Yong Jae Park Genre: Action, Comedy, Martial Arts, Sci-Fi, Supernatural Description: While an island half-disappears from the face of the earth, a mysterious organization is sends out invitations for a tournament to every skilled fighter in the world. “If you win you can have ANYTHING you want.” they claim. They’re recruiting only the best to fight the best and claim the title of The God of High School! Great action and humour, and the story is quite promising. |
Actually i read this manga...18 chapter i read...and i also see the raw..,(actually is in 30 ch)
I like the story...but the tournament seems a little short...however..the main mail character is awesome....and the picture when he fight are awesome.... |
I've been enjoying the manwha greatly so far, Jin is hilarious in his actions. I kinda think he's stupid :P, but cool at the same time. I don't care about the older guy, but the girl is awesome(and cute too =03).
The one thing that I'm definitely not going to like is the whole superpowers deal like when Q and R were fighting. I can understand the idea of 'chi'/'ki' or whatever power being used in conjunction with marital arts(think The Breaker), but when these superpowers become completely relied upon, it makes for uninteresting fights. Hopefully they stick to how the current translated arc(the tournament) is being; fighting using martial art skills instead of 'magic'. |
Two new chapters are out, and the focus shifts away from the tournament.
Spoiler for ch.19-20:

So caught up with this after learning what happens in Zen Arts manhwa and needed another action series to tide me over.
Tis a pretty good action series so far, not amazing, well ok the fighting is pretty cool but overall not bad I'd say. With the lastest chapters we're now into the super power part fo the series. The god points is a intersting take on the powers but hopefully it's not all about that and the arts still remain at the forefront cause them fights are the best so far. Jin is cool and yea a bit of idiot as well, when he did the acupucture on himself I couldn't stop laughing:heh: Han is also cool but not sure what I'd put him down as, his conflicts with everthing he was doing for his friend was a interesting story point, especially when he went all out on Mi-Ra, that was brutal. And Mi-Ra is well she's the only female of the group so yea I like her, she looked great in the wedding dress. Oh also loved that little flashback with her uncle:heh: Look forward to more! |
I got caught with this manhwa because, contrary to most manhwas, the plot actually moves forward at a steady pace (instead of the slow-paced 30 chapter introduction of most of the other manhwas I've read).
It also helps that the story and characters are well built and make you want to see what they do next. |
Shark boy!
But seriously, it looks to me that there's two types of "powers" ones that create an object or element and ones that create an actual creature. I must admit, I was not expecting this series to go from badass martial arts to super powers but then again...that's what happened to Dragonball innit? |
Don't you just love cliffhangers like chap 65 =03?

^i feel the same way
haha |
It's so nice to find a series where the mc is actually competent for a change, wow.
I hope she gets her sword back after this fight. |
The MC is incredibly strong.
I wonder who the dude summoning by the glasses girl'a ability is from Romance of the Three Kingdom though. I think he's Lu Bu. Even Korean loves to name others with their language. :( |

Personally I prefer the "Lu Bu" that comes form the same series the lovely lass in my sig comes from:D
Not to say what we get here isn't cool tho. Shame her trump card fell short tho, would have been cool to see her give the guy a little more of a beating before the regen. |
It's not that her trump card fell short, but rather that the opponent's team cheated. The sound guy hit her with his special ability and made her lose her equilibrium in addition to causing damage, which resulted in her not being able to defend herself from the creepy swimwear dude.
If it was a straight fight she probably would have won handily. |
Was that Blood Sealing Needle move by Jin one of the techniques he learned from that acupuncture book? Might explain how he beat that doppelganger guy.
