So I really like this isekai... I did read 100 chapters twice after all.
I'm gonna try to sell you this manhwa which deserves a read if you're fond of the genre.
As with typical korean fashion, our protagonist is overpowered. But it's not a clone of some characters you might be thinking of if you're already familiar with other popular korean works. Forget about the self composed hero and a trendy haircut that has no feelings besides protecting his friends and beating the bad guys.
We've got ourselves someone that has truly been through a special kind of hell.
Either way, because
...
everything is easy when you're stronger than everyone else, pacing is important, and I don't think this isekai really misses the mark here. It doesn't take long for the reader to be introduced to the greater forces that make up this fantasy world. And boy is it grand. You just can't wait to see our korean Conan matched up against other strong fighters and you know... just enjoy the show. The drawings are gorgeous, and it's supported by great combats that are often fought on an epic scale.
What I particularly adore about this isekai, is the charisma that emanates from various characters, and it's not always quite clear whether they are friend or foe. Everyone has their own agenda... both players and NPCs.
When it comes to comedy, it's surprisingly alright. Honestly things kinda get pretty dark with some isekai but this one always manages to lighten the mood thanks to the main characters' chemistry.
To conclude, Latna Saga hasn't reinvented the wheel among the plethora of isekais that deal with a MMORPG setting, but where it truly shines is that it keeps things simple while still delivering an entertaining story that keeps the reader waiting for more.
A balanced isekai, and I wouldn't be surprised one bit if it gets adapted someday.
