If you tired of the usual regressed/reincarnated/dungeon hunting/game type manhwa with a plain OP MC that has nothing else going for it then try some of these.

Although some might still fall under the types above they have a twist or a solid plot progression that helps make up for it and make it very enjoyable.

P.S. I tried to include more new and unpopular manhwa that people may not have tried before. I still put some pretty popular ones if I feel that they really did something unique.

This is a stack of Action manhwa where the MC isn't afraid to kill more than one person, whether it be for his own sense of justice, to protect his friends and family, or to fulfil his selfish goals.

There will be some overlap between this stack and these two stack series: Manhwa centred around either Players, Dungeons, Monster Hunting or Virtual Reality Games |and| Manhwa centred around either Martial Arts, Magic, Nobility or Murim.
So if you have enjoyed any manhwa from this stack, then feel free to check out those stacks as they might contain more manhwa you would like.

This is a stack of Action Manhwa where the MC is sent back in time to a younger version of themselves to have a Second Chance at life. This typically occurs after the MC dies, but death isn't always necessary. They usually use this opportunity to either: atone for their past mistakes / save a life / or just live a different life.

Manhwa about - Fantasy World(Anyplace that's not earth). and Fighting lots of Fighting. (Isekai Excluded)

This stack is a continuation from: Manhwa centred around either Martial Arts, Magic, Nobility or Murim (#1).

----
This stack will contain:
-Martial Arts Manhwa
-Magic Manhwa
-Nobility Manhwa
-Murim Manhwa
-Superpowers

To give examples, these manhwa will feel similar to manhwa like The Legend of the Northern Blade or Doom Breaker.

These tend not to be set on Earth.

This stack contains similar (but not the same) manhwa to this stack series: Manhwa centred around either Players, Dungeons, Monster Hunting or Virtual Reality Games.
So if you have enjoyed any manhwa from this stack, then feel free to check out this stack, as it might contain more manhwa you would like.

Got chills from how good some of these were... definitely altered my brain chemistry.

Part 2 of good manhwa my sister reads and recommends.

Although I call it "Garbage," most of these are pretty good. "Power Fantasy Garbage" is just a phrase I use to refer to "power fantasy" manhwa.

Currently a work in progress.

Manhwa (Korean: 만화; Hanja: 漫畵; Korean pronunciation: [manβʷa]) is the general Korean term for comics and print cartoons. Outside Korea, the term usually refers to South Korean comics. Manhwa is directly influenced by Japanese manga comics. 

This list will be continuously updated.

This list will only feature power fantasies (op mc, etc).

REMARKS:
Check out my other interest stacks for more recommendations (such as manhwa with no op mc trope). In creation now
Highly recommend checking out manhua and donghua (it's getting better and better, might as well start now!).

again more action packed MC stuff. I couldnt tell ya if any of them are good cuz I haven't read them yet. my next group will be smaller but its the ones I've been reading.

And some names of some other mangas that I can’t find on here. Haven’t read them either just found them and plan on reading them later so idk if they are good or actually OP MC, but I assume from names and cover.
