Imagine you had a friend to whom you have sworn your loyalty until he became an Emperor. Throughout the years, you would carry out evil deeds and dirty your hands just to help him achieve his ultimate goal.
But suddenly this friend betrayed you and is about to kill you. What would you do? Well, if you are you, then realistically speaking, you would probably be dead. Yikes!
However, that’s not the case for the protagonist of the story, Ian Page, who was able to twist his destiny by using his plot armor at the beginning of the story. His friend named Ragnar- who was alert to him due to him being a really great magician- tried to kill Ian but failed because he killed himself first. Big brain!
Thankfully, he was able to cast time magic on the knife he used to stab himself, making him return to the past and start this eventful story of revenge.

The Advanced Player of the Tutorial Tower is a comical story. Hyeon-U Kim is an adventurer who was stuck in a tutorial tower full of regenerating monsters for over 12 years! Yes, you heard that right. 12 years in a tutorial tower. He’s basically the opposite of a speedrunner, who mostly skips out the tutorials.
Anyways, with him being sort of “imprisoned” in this place, the only thing he can do to survive is pretty much continuously kill all the monsters in the tower through equipment or magic. This never-ending wave of enemies paved the way for him to become really, really strong.
Now that he’s out, he sets out to explore the world again and find whoever is the reason behind his entrapment.

It has kidnapping. It has murder, it has risqué relationships– wait… This is not how you persuade someone to read a manhwa. What is up with these violent themes?!
Jokes aside, Roxana is actually a fantastic gore, yet romantic series. we know what you’re thinking, “gore” and “romance” don’t really go well together. But this can all be explained by using one word in the weeb dictionary- yandere.
Yes, that’s right! The female protagonist of the story, Roxana, is a yandere if defined by us cultured weebs out there.
This story focuses on Roxana as she tries to work with Cassis Pedelian, a young man whom she needs to protect in order to survive. This is the story of the two of them together as they try to bring down the violent Agrece’s criminal family.

A boring life. This would be the best definition for the ordinary salaryman Park Do-Hyuk.
Probably the only interesting thing he does is play a game he spent most of his life on. Hmmm… If only the video game can transcend itself into reality and change the life of the protagonist… And yes, this is exactly what happened.
Kidding aside, even though the story is a little bit predictable, this is still a pretty good manhwa. After experiencing a life or death situation, he suddenly “awakened” and acquired all sorts of power originating from the game mentioned earlier.
What more is that he experienced a one in a billion chance of happening: “Triple Awakening.” Together with his newly-realized strength, it marks the start of his journey to reach the top of this world, not devoid of magic!

Manhwa Storyline:
King Grey is one of the most notable people in history. He had attained unreachable power, wealth, and glory.
However, there’s one thing he hasn’t tasted for as long as he became King- happiness. Despite all of his achievements, he always feels nothing but emptiness inside.
So, you bet that he wouldn’t let it go to waste if he is reincarnated again. In his second life, he is now in a fantasy world, where magic is the norm and monsters filled the world.
This is the well-written narrative of Arthur Leywin (his new name) as he traverses this mystical world and occasionally experiences an existential crisis in this coming-of-age series.

Manhwa Storyline:
The second on the list, Tower of God. There is this so-called Tower of God that is said to possess anything that you want in your life. Money, pride, power, revenge… literally anything.
ToG is about the story of Baam, who was left alone by his friend, Rachel- who entered the tower shortly after. This is his story as he tries to conquer the tower, despite having no special powers or strength, in order to reunite with his friend.
Baam might be one of the best simps in the manhwa world.
Overall, Tower of God is an amazing series with probably the best world-building out there. You should go and give it a try!

Manhwa Storyline:
Sung Jin-Woo was called the weakest hunter in the entire world.
He was constantly teased and was only allowed to participate in dungeon clearings as a simple storage holder. However, all of this changed after he experienced a frightening life or death situation.
Jin-Woo realized that he can now solo level, at an exponential rate than other hunters can do. This basically transformed him from a beta male to an alpha chad.
Even guys go gay for Sung Jin-Woo
Kidding aside, Solo Leveling is probably the best manhwa you can read out there. It has amazing storytelling, well-written developments, and an excellent main character. The cherry on the top? IT’S EXTRAORDINARY ART.
With all of this, there’s definitely no reason for you to not read Solo Leveling.

Hey.Do you know any manhwa or webtoon similar to “The beginning after the end”
That starts from the beginning of the character and tells the story of the growth of him/her?
I’d be really grateful if you could help me❤️
I think solo leveling should be around number 5 the character development is faster than a rocket ship jin woo is just too strong to have any character development
Personally, Omniscient should defnitely be number 1. A shame that Solo leveling is one of those rare manhwa that finished
u dumb. solo leveling is the best among all of the above rn.
