Adrenaline-filled power fantasy with absolutely orgasmic art.

Story: 7/10
The premise isn't something that hasn't been done before and does fall into the usual cliches but that doesn't really sour the plot or make it boring.

Art: 10/10
Insanely well-drawn and fluid action panels, the art seems alive. The backgrounds are breathtaking as well. Character designs are solid as well. The art is the most distinct feature of this manhwa, it wouldn't be half as good without this art.

Character: 7/10
Basic 'revenge obsessed reincarnated MC'. However cliched they may be, the characters don't really break the story. Some of them are actually interesting as well. The MC's manipulative attitude ... is also entertaining.

Enjoyment: 9/10
This was an absolute blast to read because of the art. Recommended to readers who enjoyed Solo Leveling and Omniscient Reader.

Before I jump into reviewing Doom Breaker, let me give you a brief timeline of the Webtoon hierarchy.
The former Big 3: Tower of God, Noblesse & God of High school.
The current Big 3: Solo Leveling, Omniscient Reader & (most likely) Doom Breaker.

Doom Breaker uses the time travel trope to its utmost potential, leaving no room for debate. The story flows well, even though it seems as if the pace is quicker than normal. The twists and turns are abrupt (and somewhat too early) but it works because the grounds have been already laid in a story we haven't even seen. Exactly what a time ... travel theme needs when there are no loops involved. 8/10

The art is gorgeous, and the fight scenes are not weightless. 10/10. Nothing more to say here.

The characters are interlaced and enthralling. The protagonist is amusing. Nothing seems to be out of place here. 8/10

The enjoyment is through the roof. The more you read this, the more invested you become in its world-building, power systems, and factions. It just gets better and better with each chapter. 10/10

Although, it's a long way before Doom Breaker is established to become one of the new Big 3 as its competitors are nothing to look down upon. (Eleceed, Teenage Mercenary & Jungle Juice are some good examples). Only time will tell.

Probably the best in class for action shounen style manwha stories.
Sits among my top with Murim Login and The Legend of the Northern Blade for that genre.

Plot wise, nothing special, korean manwhas tend to repeat the same general formula.
Execution wise though, masterful. Very well paced and thoughtful planning of how a revenge recar would be like.
Art, beautiful and stylstic.

Everything you expect a shounen MC to do, he does it smarter, explains it well and pulls it off more efficientyl, this is also done with antagonists so you can see epic conflicts, something that is tough to pull off.

Well deserved to be at the spot ... of action manwhas.

9/10 fantasy reincarnation manwha with immersive world building and beautiful art.

The characters are alright. They're not groundbreaking but they feel believable with their own distinct beliefs and motivations. The mc is humorously manipulative but still grounded, but he starts off a little too overpowered missing the underdog build-up that usually makes these stories captivating.

The fantasy world-building is incredible. The different settings, factions and the lore is well connected and keeps you interested. As the story continues it keeps getting expanded upon and it keeps getting better.

The artwork is the highlight. The world and characters are amazingly colorful and expressive, and the fight scenes ... are cool while still feeling weighty and being easy to follow.

Basically it's a visually striking manwha with decent characters and a strong fantasy foundation. Solid 9/10. Defiantly worth a reed even if you aren’t a fan of the generic reincarnation manwha with a op mc.
