^ I guess even masters have a slight delay adapting to sudden darkness. Even if she is a master, there must boundaries by which masters can be categorized in.
A nice chapter overall if you just ignore princess Shion. The old 'The Breaker' had definitely better pacing, if NW had been a monthly manhwa I'm sure the story would improve by at least 50%. Not 100% since Shion would have been a rag doll either way.

I don't have any problem with shion trying to kill doc, I'd be disappointed if he didn't. But he keeps rushing in without gauging the enemy. Being at death's door or overcome with rage is no excuse, he's been there before. Plus, he's had hours bleeding away on a table to get over his rage and think about why he was there in the first place (partly his fault). You think about stuff like that when you know you're going to die and can't do shit about it. I know he didn't take murim 101, but he been in enough life-or-death fights and situations to know you have to look before you leap, especially when you got someone with you. He needs to realize that Sera will get dragged into whatever decisions he makes in the heat of the moment. Maybe he too used to fighting alone, but that luxury was shot when his ki center broke. He should realize by now that the only reason he's alive is because there were people around trying to save him, yet this damsel in distress scenario keeps repeating obliviously.

Don't bother for now. Actually read Tower of God instead if you want a story about a good MC. ToG's MC is pretty much the same as Shioon in terms of kindness/hinted potential etc... but at least he became the kind of MC that would fit perfectly in this type of manhwa instead of Shioon who's no different after 100 chaps.

But seriously, I was really excited when NW was announced, the first few chapters were good, but then it went all down the drain.I really want to take a break from this and hope it will improve later, but when the next chapter is up I know i will download it, if only to face palm myself 2 minutes later

It would seem everyone's forgotten that "Doc" moves faster than Shioon, has better knowledge of the area, and has a rather significant number of SUC followers with excellent views of all the exits and the surrounding area.
Running away is not an option. Shioon saw an opening, and took it. EVERYONE calls Shioon an "idiot," but he's actually quite sharp. If it wasn't for his "mad lunge," Sera would never have had the opening she needed to throw "Doc." Shioon's greatest advantage is that people ALWAYS underestimate him. I'm sure he's thinking up something that will render the "eye-shine" moot. |

Most of the time Shion behave like the last moron, or a monkey after lobotomy. Just because things sometimes work in his way is probably thanks to author Mangaka No Jutsu and Plot no Armor. Normally he wouldn't survive few days in murim world, and thats why most people are fed up with him. That dude is all the time saved by lady luck, you can give him that. But him smart? No way not even a chance.

Oh, he has a wonderful brain, but he keeps forgetting to use it. I'm still holding onto some hope that he'll get his shit together. But recently he keeps letting his emotions take over his better judgment and frankly it's frustrating as a fan. I’d be a lot more forgiving if I wasn’t expecting so much more from him.

Considering his recent streak of being *cool*, there's not much chance anything will change.
