welcome to MAL and forum by the way.

A manga(manhwa as well) or anime can't be put into MAL database if it is not "published". It must be the case that "gamer" is not published, despite its relative popularity on mangahere.

Just started reading it today actually, I fucking love it! Just from the title and first pages its the greatness of what you'd expect.

Its not on the site simply because its a "Manwha" which is Koreon and not Japanese.
Though the jerks put some Manwha's in the list, if you put a little put all of them, or at least the best/most popular ones.

that's not the reason..

ex. http://myanimelist.net/manga/8586/The_Breaker
The Breaker. It's a manhwa and it's on MAL, rather well-rated too.

ex 2. http://myanimelist.net/manga/43913/Feng_Shen_Ji
this is a manhua, or comics published in china. It is on MAL too. again, well-rated.

please don't spread wrong information. It's contagious.

There are some webtoons on here but they they are all listed as manwha. This club has a list of a lot the licensed webtoons on MAL http://myanimelist.net/clubs.php?cid=29973 They are all korean manhwa but created online so they would be a manhwa webtoon I guess?

Best webtoon that I ever read.
Idea about the protagonist's real life being an RPG was quite new and interesting.

Why not try first few chapters??The story is quite interesting.

If they are making exceptions for all of the licensed korean webtoons and most of other manhwa, plus a few chinese manhua, I can't really see that as "exceptions".

Besides, go to the top manga list on MAL yourself and there is even 2 rankings dedicated to manhua and manhwa respectively.

There are exactly 782 manhwa http://myanimelist.net/topmanga.php?type=manwha&limit=780 and 215 manhua http://myanimelist.net/topmanga.php?type=manhua&limit=200 on the database. 997 titles of manhua and manhwa certainly don't constitute for the majority of comics* on MAL (having more than 20000 titles), but in no fucking way would MAL allow 1000 exceptions to some rules.

OH YEAH!! the gamer is really good. After SOA and that other trapped in a game anime( log horizon was it?), its refreshing to see someone mess with the premise in the opposite direction. But the gamer has almost no similarities with either. Anyway, I can see this series becoming a great brawler series, but the brainy kind of brawler with all the INT points Heheheheh.

I was trying to put The gamer on my list but it seems there is no database for Manhwa.

Even though it's a Manhwa it would be great to add this on my animelist :)

It seems the "The Gamer" was published as a webtoon, which we don't accept. According to the database guidelines we are only allowed to accept things that were published professionally.

I came here to discuss The Gamer, but it seems that I have entered the wrong thread...

Anyway

I'm liking it so far, although I'm wishing for a grand plot to emerge at some point.

I've read a bunch of web comics, which aren't in the DB though. Dunno why MAL doesn't add web comics as a special category or something.

Anyway, The Gamer is really great. I'd give it at least a 9. Though the pace is terrible. I wish it would be daily released :D

I used to read it. I stopped because it was all training, no action, and the most interesting character was a minor one (the mom). I might get back to it, but I'll need some convincing from those who are up to date with it ;)

The gamer is not a published official Korean manga credited by a Korean publisher therefore MAL will not publish it as official manga/Manhwa for users. I've spoken with one of the officials and that's what they've said.

There is action now :) Though the pace is slooooow, but yeah, you have him now kill off a whole clan (I mean the MC) :)

The Gamer is good but not the best. Like edwardo said, the pace is really slow but it eventually picks up and when I mean slow mean LITERALLY it's like literally playing a mmorpg.

The Gamer is great IMO I just started reading it and read the first 40 chapters in one go but sadly MAL doesn't have it in its system so I cant add it to my list yet but hopefully they will add it in the future though.

Got bored asf & stopped reading like a year ago when all he was doing was grinding for like 20 chapters...

Everything about this series reeks of a bad fanfiction : MC op as fuck, nothing makes sense, contradictions everywhere...
Despite putting all his points in Intelligence, the MC is still extremely stupid. There's also an overabundance of skills that just get forgotten for the convenience of the plot...

But since its funny as hell, I still continued reading xD

Edit : well, the last 20 chapters or so, with all the company bullshit, were trying (and failing) to be serious, and thus were not funny at all. I'll probably drop this.

For a manga/manhwa/manhua to be in the database, it must have a physical copy so it has to be licensed.

TBH I loved the concept and the fact that it actually focuses on him leveling up/ gaining new abilities, I think it's fun even if for most of you might be wasted time. It reminded me of a really similar manga I read some time ago, it had the same main plot.

One thing I hate about it: Might turn like SAO. Too many chicks on that guy. I just find this so annoying. And besides his master, they are all the typical moe girls I despise especially the pres, I hope she dies.

manhwa is not webtoon OP, it's interesting how people can get the two confused. maybe because manga sites list them as manhwa when that's not the case, and they are just fueling the ignorance of innocent people.

Since tower of god is also a webtoon shuldn't Mal start adding stuff like The gamer into its database? i don't think it would be much of a surprise if there is an announcement for an anime for The gamer by 2022.

Hey! I wouldn't have my hopes high because I thought manhwas don't get animations. (At least that's what I have been told when I was waiting with a little hope for whether "Witch Hunter" could be animated)
