UnOrdinary
A webcomic from LINE that seems to be getting rather popular these last few weeks.
Spoiler for Synopsis from LINE:
Premise: Set in a world where everyone posseses a superpower, the story follows John, a person who possess no superpowers. Unfortunately for john, his world's society is centered around a social hierarchy based on the strength or level of your power. The strongest people stand above all, while someone like john, labeled as a cripple, is at the very bottom. In this world, might makes right. This is a story of john not only trying to survive in this society, but it is also a story of him struggling to keep his beliefs and ideals, even as society cruelly strikes him down. Spoiler for Link to it:
So far we are into 61 chapters in the story. It takes place in a world superpowers have become common, focusing in a particular school, Welston, for high-tiers. I'd say more about it, but nearly everything I can say would either spoil or be technically incorrect at this point, so I guess it's best for me to not speak more in the first post

Been following this series since the beginning, glad to see someone make a thread for it. However, this series isn't a manga (Japanese comic), but rather an American webcomic, though the author obviously takes cues from manga.
EDIT:Premise in first post. Also there is NO ntr in this comic. Last edited by coded321; 2017-09-09 at 23:19. |

I like this but what the hell are these kids learn in school actually? lol~
Also so many assholes in school~ So many violences, where the hell is the teachers? Btw, John's can permanently copy powers or only those around him at the time?

It seems that unless a incident results in damage to school property or rep, or in the death of a student, the teachers will not get involved. As far as we've seen john can only copy powers that are activated around him, and it doesn't seem to be permanent, lasting until he shuts off his own power. |

I like to think the chapters so far were devoted to world and character building. and you have to admit, when it comes to pacing, there are many series that are far, far worse than unordinary |

I'm with Erotora on this one, the story is good, but the society structure doesn't make sense if you think about it, people still work and earn money, considering their society, I don't think having a powerful power make much different in getting money except in special line of work require it like Military, if anything, Asslo and Sera power actually limit the jobs they can took, and many low level have far more versatile power.
The whole issues of power is kinda over emphasis, since money still dominate. It's not like Mahouka when Magic mostly affect Military only and on now they are trying to break away from it to a more economic purpose, or like Hero academia where the power completely change the structure from the ground, but the people still choose and work their own jobs, most don't make that much use of power |

^Yea, boi~
Actually I wanted to make a thread for this since long time ago (Lookism too). But they set aside too many important issues in exchange for angsts. The presence of this powers should change society considerably, especially since it's not like X-Men where only a handful people have it but most people do, but it's just not visible at all.
