Synopsis

Having suffered ruthless bullying for the better part of his life, 17-year-old Yu has become emotionally numb and dissociated from reality, no longer able to act like a normal human being. Although he possesses the exceptional talent to dodge punches, Yu prefers to let his perpetrators beat him down as he finds no meaning in his survival.

Things begin to look up when Yu meets an old boxing trainer nicknamed "K." Having raised five champions, K's years of experience and an impressive gut feeling allow him to recognize Yu's near-superhuman fighting charisma immediately. K rushes to take Yu under his wing, despite the latter's apparent lack of interest.

However, after being reminded of a bright memory from the past, Yu has a change of heart and accepts K's offer, hoping to experience the same light once again. Thus, Yu enters a world full of formidable adversaries—righteous and monstrous alike—and for the first time ever, he has no choice but to fight back.

what is the purpose of life? was the question in my mind while reading this. On the surface what looks like a manhwa about boxing, well it isnt. Though boxing is present there, this manhwua is much more than it. having read the pervious works of JH(the author) i was looking forward to this and it didnt disappoint. A dark manhwua with a bit of comedy to keep the readers entertained is what this manhwa is made of.

story 9/10:
YU being the main character. The story doesnt only revolves around him but the poeple he meets throught out his journey of finding "LIGHT" (the purpose ...

Mixed Feelings
La obra es bastante repetitiva, va orientada a la psicología de los personajes y la verdad es que hay capítulos enteros que te hablan de personajes secundarios que únicamente sirven de escalón para que nuestro protagonista siga avanzando y se hace algo pesado, al inicio es entretenida pero al final se hace aburrida a mi gusto. El protagonista es un emo que ha tenido una vida dura y la cual no conocemos hasta el final de la obra, y el entrenador es un tronao que te apetecería chafarle la cabeza contra el suelo por lo enfermo que está. El romance del prota con la chica ...

Preliminary (30/123 eps)
Never have i read a story without a single good character, even the worst shows have at least one, but this is an exception.
Art ugly,, the fight with jahad may be the ugliest most boring fight in history. And him just running away is the worst ending to a fight in manga/manhua history, if jahad was atleast a funny or interesting character or had a compelling backstory I wouldnt mind him, but he has nothing. Atleast the first fight there was an attempt to give the character some personality(but its hot garbage).
Story bland. I mean theres no emotion and he doesnt even develop as a ...
