ahh...i hvnt been to this group for a while...ehm, scratch that, EVER.
and for that im sorry TT^TT, but i am INDEED a HUGE fan of 1/2 ouji..
its just that i dont hve time to visit groups and stuff...but for one sole reason,
here i am today, posting a topic. i dont even know if its helpful of not but
i have to try.

today i stumbled upon this information, "did you know that 1/2 ouji is originally a novel?"
or at least it was not until it became a manga, of course some parts of the novel
were changed from the manhwa itself. i even died laughing while reading it and my
mom was like, "have you lost your mind or something?" but believe me,
its not a weird scene if you're reading 1/2 ouji..

ok, enough with the talk, here is the link. don t worry, its fully translated from chinese to english and they even hve some translation notes below for words u dont understand,but i guess its pretty obvious that its already translated since im posting it here...

hope you enjoy as much as i did! ^^

i havent read so much of the novel yet
but i will vote for both
because the mahwa is GREAT because you see the characters in action and not only in you imagination XD but the novel has SO much things that the manhwa doesnt, and of course its the original!

I haven't read much of the novel either, but so far, it's good. It's fun to see details, such as thoughts, that weren't in the manhua(?).
The manhua is really funny, of course~
So both are great.

I like that the manhua actually give me a mental picture. And that it shows everyone's ridiculous faces.

But in the novel, there are so many other funny stuff that were left out in the manhua like explaining where Prince got her moves from.

While reading the novel, the mental pictures I got from the manhua just made it so much more enjoyable.

I like both but I'm kind of leaning towards the novel because it's more in depth.

LOL, i know..
i like the manhwa too, but the novel is funnier
the novel was much more detailed than the manhwa, after i read most of it
i read the manhwa again (actually i have already reread the manhwa like more than 5 time already)
i was quite disappointed a little bit to know that they cut some funny parts from the novel,
but all's well, they are both the best..

Woow thanks yoshiko for the link!!! I'm really happy to read the novel not just the manga! It's a different pont of view since you have to rely more on your imagination which I think is cool. Even though I saw the manhua beforehand I think I will still enjoy the novel!:)

Both, cause although we see the characters, they explain a bit more behind the motivation of the characters ;)
