    After chapter 40, it should be painfully obvious who Carrie's half-siblings are.

    After seeing Carrie all nicely dressed up, I can't decide who I like more.

    Finally caught up...

    Carrie is a nice character to have, I like her so far. I wonder if she knows who her half-sister is, especially after hearing her last name... she must realize that it's the same as her father's even if he's using a different last name in the UK.

    I don't think she did at first. She was surprised to find out Hae Young's family name was Nah, but after she asked about Hae Young's older sister, I think she pretty much confirmed it for herself. Carrie knows she has two half sisters, who are living in that area of Korea. The strange look she gave Hae Young, a mix of happiness and sadness, when she said "Having an old sister must be a wonderful thing," should all but confirm it (Hae Young even felt shocked by it).

    Will Jin Ho fall for Caroline instead? She's got all the same attributes of Hae Young, but she's also a fighter, something Jin Ho is obviously attracted to.

    With the abundance of great Korean manhwas coming out, you'll get the hang of it soon enough.

    Anyways I'm up to chapter 45 right now. And Jin-Ho is a fucking pussy, he needs to bang that teach already.

    It's too late now though, Hae-Young is already having perverted dreams about him. He just has to bide his time and she'll come to him. If she gives him any kind of opening for real, I'm sure he would.

    I expected Carrie to outright hate Hae-Young or swear revenge, but I was at least a little surprised her goal was just to make Hae-Young acknowledge her as her younger sister.

    A lot of manwha really isn't that great. I read a good amount of manwha, and the overwhelming majority of it seems to be about who is the jjang (gang leader) of a high school. Seriously.

    This isn't the thread for this. I'll send you a PM about most of the manwha I've read.

    Hot Blooded Woman is a pretty decent manwha. Just as Ryllharu said though, the story for it is gang related (i don't understand why that is about the only setting i see for manwha, even the shoujo ones). The story however is pretty interesting and somewhat original so you can try it out.

    Back to UxU

    The more i see Jing-ho, the more he annoys me. The guy is an arrogant jerk with anger issues, the one part where he confronted Carrie just because she couldn't handle the spicy food was pretty ridiculous

    It's cause she was screaming while she was eating it, and yelling in English. He called her a yankee or whatever. It's pretty typical, people are really discriminatory.

    I would personally get irritated if I see a foreigner eating a dish from my country while screaming and complaining. I wouldnt call her a yankee out loud, but I can understand why he reacted that way. He actually didnt mean to confront her, but she heard it, and that led to a confrontation. Being a person with a personality that does not let conflict simply pass, I think he reacted typical of his character, and in a humanly understandable,as well as realistic way.

    Chapter 46 is out, available at the link below.

    Let some other people read the chapter before talking.
    Made me hungry.

  14. #54
    Just read 46, it was quite a nice chapter. Jin-Ho revealing everything to Carrie took me by surprise, especially how casually he did it.

  15. #55
    Well, I had stopped reading this for a while. I recently just caught up... I think chapter 72 is the latest one. So, any of you guys still reading this?

    Apparently there'll be no releases till about May or so because that's when the next volume comes out or something.

    I guess I am a little behind, I'm up to chapter 69.

    I've been reading the other works by the author or the artist in the meantime. Onihime VS, Aflame Inferno (different artitst but same style), or Freezing (same artitst as Aflame).

    kmts really only likes to do tank scans for the majority of their series, mostly because they look better and are way easier to edit/clean. Can't really blame them, some of the other scanners use magazine scans for UxU and they look really bad.

    Aflame I've been reading and I've been liking it so far. Was going to start a thread on it in the next couple of days. The others you've mentioned I have on my "To Try" list. While we're at it, I have to catch up with Black God and Zero. I also want to try The Legend of Maian.

    Well get up to date... sometimes I wish there was less of the harem aspect, and more male competition for the teacher. I really miss Jin-Ho kicking some ass, and I'm sure that would be the perfect opportunity for him to do so.

    I'm a bit behind also since I've been waiting for a nice chunk to read.

    I've read both Onihime Vs and Aflame Inferno also and so far Aflame is pretty good and Onihime Vs has an interesting premise.

    ID is another good manhwa from ktms that you guys should take a look at. It's not by this author but it's a solid action series with a nice mix of eastern and western fantasy.

    Yeah, I was like 3 volumes behind before I decided to catch up. And seeing as you'd have to wait till May for more to come out, maybe this is as good as you're going to get for the time being (depending on how far behind you are).

    The latest volume ended in quite an exciting place with a cool cliffhanger that may or may not screw things up for everyone depending on decisions from some characters.

    ID I read one chapter a while ago, and it didn't catch me right off the bat. I've been thinking of trying it again since it's been highly recommended to me from other sources. I'll check it out as soon as I can.

    Unbalance x Unbalance chapter 73 [a-team]

    According to A-team, it seems to be the beginning of the last volume.

    Note: They've switched to the Japanese version, so things are mixed around a bit, but the names are mostly changed back to the Korean versions. Honorifics and titles are changed. Also reads right to left now.
