MC is the only one with a certain special ability, be it stealing luck, talking to mechanical parts, seeing into the future, seeing people's tax evasion debts, reading people's minds etc.

Except Rescue System, there's no such thing as levelling up and constantly gaining new abilities, levels, equipment and such.
Rescue System still feels somewhat in between all the rest and power fantasy because it still has the firefighter setting and missions that essentially resemble the real life ones.
Rojiura Brothers: he isn't the only one.

To have an easier view on the manga relations of the club, here's the fifth stack of manga, from T to Z.

The four other stacks are:
1-E: https://myanimelist.net/stacks/344
F-Ko: https://myanimelist.net/stacks/349
Ku-N: https://myanimelist.net/stacks/357

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.

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, Nobles or Murim.

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.

Top 50 rated manhwas with the tags of action & fantasy without the romance tag. (Released in 2010 or later)

Updated : 1/26/2025

A manhwa list of my own personal preference (no particular order).

There are some mainstream titles, but I try to steer away from most since they are easily found elsewhere. I am also trying to keep it with these newer age manhwa.

My reading pattern is to binge series, so if there is a particularly weak arc or if the direction is bad enough I will drop it. There are lots of manhwa with VERY strong starts - but sadly fall off or get axed.

A list of Manhwas newly released in May 2024.

Some honorable mentions (not beginner ones ig):
The boxer
sweet home
bastard
leviathan
pigpen
solo levelling
Infinite levelling murim
ranker's return(better than overgeared imho)
demon emperor/magic emperoe/devil butler
Barbarian Quest

memoir of god of war
your talent is mine
tower god

A collection of peak manhwa/ua's focused on nobility , reincarnation , magic , game and dungeon styled themes.

Not strictly following a order but in general the lower the entry in the list the lesser I liked it. (Not strictly)

Eligibility criteria : I cared enough about them to reread/keep up with them yearly.


Not on MAL :

works that have beautiful or different art and good stories, some with different stories than normal

Manhwa/Manhua with different stories, some may start in a generic way but as it progresses it differentiates itself from other works

These are not on my anime list
Become the Lord of Cthulhu (a story with a lovecraft theme)
Creepy Pharmacist: All My Patients Are Horrific (a very crazy doctor)
Space Heavenly Demon 3077 (My favorite science fiction Manhwa, if anyone knows a good one, please recommend it to me.)
A Barbarian Was Admitted to the Academy (interesting)
Boyfriend of the Dead (As Captain America said, I understood the reference.)
Peerless Dad (what a cool dad)

The idea is that the works take place in the medieval period and are more realistic. They don't have a system, powers, magic and if they do, it's not something common that several characters use, there may be some exceptions.
