Omniscient Reader isn't the first manhwa to bloom outside its home, few others managed to do the same but what separates it from the rest is the fact it's very unique and I've personally never read anything like this ever before

Story : Incredibly immersive and Exciting with amazingly written lore. The manhwa starts with our protagonist Dokja realising that web novel he has been reading for years is the reality now. Apocalypse striked, the world has fallen but he knows how to survive and what will happen next. He was a reader, reader he still is, but a reader who knows it all. The characters ... he read about in the novel are reality but what about the original protagonist of the novel !!

Strange creatures began to appear who seem nothing more than the typical Streamers broadcasting the death game to some higher beings called the constellations. The whole world is like a playfield and we're nothing more than pawns for the entertainment of higher beings. The narration in the manhwa is extremely fluid and feels as if you're reading a book despite not being much text-ish.

Characters : I appreciate the fact our main character Kim Dokja isn't some naive person or takes tons of chapters to come in terms with the reality and I expect nothing less than a 28 year old person. He tries to take full advantage of all the knowledge he has after reading the novel for all those years. He gathers allies who will prove useful and help each other to survive this world and they're all decently written too

Art : Story is what that matters the most but a great art is always a bonus. The manhwa has absolutely fantastic artwork, and it's done by REDICE Studio which does art for Solo Leveling too

Comedy : It's not really a focus but it has its moments. The constellations aka the higher beings are like viewers and their reactions are always a pleasure to read. They give the same vibe as seeing reaction videos.

Overall : A great manhwa where the art is stunning but it's the fantastic plotline and story that carries the show.
