I am sorry my friend. I am sorry.

lolz

It was well expected that Suzuka was the "End Girl", after all its her name on the book.

What I wanted from Seo was a small dedicated chapter of her and her boyfriend.

Oh look, the supporting characters are more interesting and well developed than the main characters.

Where's my bingo chart when I need it?

Some people just say this about every single similar series

Suzuka had an ending? I dropped it before she ran away to America ^^, and just rofled when I heard that ending was Yamato & Suzuka having a bread in the oven after first try.
Frankly no wonder, I didn't finish even one Seo manga, all of them gets boring around 40-50% before the finish. Says all about it, Seo just loves to stall and extend on something that shouldn't extend anymore.

Which series title did you dislike? Out of all those, I am currently reading "The Legend of Maian" and liking it.

Kurokami - watched the anime and dropped after a while.

Onihime Vs - read a few chapters and dropped.

and is the author korean? The anime "Freezing" is produced by a Japanese company right?

I liked all of them...until something happened and I stopped liking them...it's always a different thing for each but it makes me lose care for the series.

Yeap he is Korean but he started to work for Japanese market, or at least some of his works were Japan-ized.
As far as it goes S Korean manhwa market is shitty for authors, and they try many things. Some go work for Japan as its more profitable, others try working for themselves and release on the internet (The Breaker New Waves).
From what I read on forums, they can't sustain a normal life from working in the manhwa market.

That's also why many Manhwa are canceled or discontinued after a few volumes (Veritas and Zen Academy for example) while Korean authors that go to Japan and write for Japanese (Boichi and Dall-Young for example) manage to stay afloat and sometimes do pretty well for themselves. However, Japan being Japan, it's hard for an outsider to get serialized.

[reccaryu]

I like his comedies better like Unbalance x 2 because his action ones seem to drag on after a while.

Come on, Seo, you can do it!!

^Never, if he were ever to do that the breaking up(no matter the reason) would invoke more rage from the fans than ever before.

It's a shame that Seo didn't even give Honoka a proper closure. Instead he forces Yamato back together with Ice Bitch without demanding even any kind of token apology. Bah.

I agree completely...given Yamato's masochistic tendencies in having multiple heart transplants courtesy of Suzuka, one might take consolation in the fact that Honoka was too good for him.
