Guys I gotta say, this man of culture manhwa would literally make you laugh, smile and downright feel hyped because you just love both Hwang Jae Sunbae and Sung-gi’s interactions. I didn’t like Sung-gi at first cause he’s your typical main idiot protagonist that you would normally see in borderline H stuff but as you get to know him, you think he’s actually pretty cool. The faces in this are unreal like the author knows well how to make the reader laugh. Yes the whole damn manhwa is effing cliche with the ecchi being over the top and seeing nearly everyone acting horny when the ... best girl or best comes into the scene.

For those who are stuck with love for real at any stage or you just need to laugh after reading so much crappy manga, this one is for y’all to binge and get “Master Kaiser” to show you how to get yourself a partner in crime xD

Skill of lure is an interesting comedy following the life of quite literally one of the biggest loser's I've met in Manga. However that's exactly what the story was aiming for and it didn't fail to deliver. Through time and trouble however as anyone would expect, with advice from a legendary pick up artist, our MC eventually finds himself a lot better off.

plot: 5/5 - I really liked the story start to finish. It didn't slack off in progression, and each time a new scenario happened, our MC would be taught a new lesson which only further development.

enjoyment: 4/5 - For a comedy it was ... pretty funny at times, although it includes a lot of humor that definitely isn't fit for everyone, I never really let it get to me because at the end of the day, I still enjoy the comedy for what it is. The MC plays a big role in this by being a very unlucky person with the ladies, although cliché, it still fit his character well enough.

Art: 4/5 - The art was pretty good. It was quite unique from most manga/manhwa I have read. Although at times I found it to be a bit wonky, you still can't go wrong with it.

Characters: 4/5 - Probably the most enjoyable part about this manga is the characters themselves. I enjoyed almost all of the side characters in one way or another, and the 3 main characters were all likable, especially after development. Our main girl is lovable and everything I could really want from a romance manga. Although our MC had a bit of a late bloom for his peak development, I still think in the end once he finally became good, it was worth it.

an overall 9/10 for me :)

Skill of lure is a series about a loser like boy trying to not be mistaken for a pervert so he can finally get a girlfriend. So he is trained by a pickup artist and throughout the series he learns more and more skills to try and catch girls.

I mean the series is pretty funny. Especially the ones involving art style change amongst women are down right hillarious. But there is a lot of ugly humor involved as well which really just boils down to being kind of gross and unfunny. But generally speaking i think it was a pretty funny series.

Honestly though the series ... has of course great quality heroines. Most of the female cast are just gorgeous asthetically speaking as the most of the women are just basically the author's personal fantasy. The entire concept of the series is becoming confident and some what of a player yet at the same time when other people do it they come of as complete richards. Women are *safe* to be unlocked but its ok when the MC does because he has *good intentions*. Essentially part of this series is incredibly hypocritical.

I did like the whole getting the girl thing, becoming more confident thinking what to say etc. Some of the best moments in this series is being an utter savage at times. The main character rejecting a bitch, the heroine destroying other women due to jealousy. But these instead of being some edgy violent series its more of a subtle way and its done really well.

The romance is fine. You know get the girl thats way out of her league etc. Pretty straight forward stuff, the author didn't really pull anything interesting or unique.

There is more about this series its just not all that great. I liked some parts of the series and hot chicks are always a plus. But my issue that the heroines don't have any depth and it pulls so many half assed tropes. Like villains has sad backstory and its inserted so lazily. Other times where when the bad guy gets beaten becomes the good guy. Kare kano did a much better for making the bullies retain there personality while becoming over time much more interesting likable characters.

TLDR: Medicore despite the fun concept. 5/10
