Mixed Feelings
Preliminary (94/? chp)
Trigger warnings for this manwha:
Blood; violence; child abuse; self-harm; suicide; Rape and other forms of sexual violence

Ok that sounds pretty intense but those are the topics that are shown and addressed sooner or later, sometimes in more or less detail.

I try to stay vague and not spoil any major plot points.

The first chapters begin with a comedic undertone. The "new teacher" beats up the school bullies. It's fun to see how the "teacher" outsmarts the students and shows them who's boss. But don't worry, the plot doesn't take place exclusively in schools. To give an example, when a classmate takes his own life, it's not enough to beat up the bully. The Manwha then tries to stay within the bounds of logic and the law, which provides an interesting plot framework for our protagonists. With the introduction of the female MC and the female only schools, we also get to see other settings and situations.
The Manwha shows in flashbacks the sometimes serious acts without becoming too explicit in the imagery. However, fists often fly and blood is usually spilled by the bad guys. But that does not mean that you do not see abused faces of minors.

But what do I like about this manwha?
The emotions drawn are very strong and often combined with a cliffhanger, they immediately make you want to read the next chapter. What I also liked is that some characters reappear later. Characters in general can change and develop emotionally. Our MCs are strong but not all-knowing. I also like their personalities, they are different enough to not seem the same even if they are doing the same thing. They are also vulnerable and show empathy and compassion. And they continue to evolve as well.

The bottom line is that the Manwha isn't perfect, of course, but you have to remember that it's just fiction made by one person.

If you like a more "serious", adult manwha, you should give it a shot.
