Kubera is merely all right but it's been good at building up its character arcs as everyone else has already said. The world lore and mythology is interesting though albeit a bit confusing without some knowledge of Hindu mythology. The plot does move at a glacial pace though so it takes a while for interesting things to actually happen.

So I recently caught up on Ruler of the Land and I really enjoyed it. It has very well drawn action scenes, and it uses the wuxia setting which I haven't seen that often. I does have a couple drawbacks though, in that its first few arcs are rather silly and the main character is just randomly using techniques, but then things get really good once the main character starts embracing martial arts and actually starting his journey. The disguised identity love triangle is pretty much dropped around the same time too, so that particular setup doesn't stick around too long. The other big drawback is that the translation is really rough and inconsistent so you're bound to be confused about the names for everything for a while. I'd recommend it to anyone who's a fan of Wuxia stories.

Should also link to Naver Webtoon since we have an English version of that now, even if some of their comics are behind the fan scanlations. Started reading Cube, I will say it has very well-timed moments when it decides to play music which is pretty cool. Not sure if I'll switch to fan scanlations when I catch up since I do like those particular moments. I remember the scanlation of Orange Marmalade left a YouTube link for a music chapter, though it wasn't ideal.

And by Cube, I meant DICE. Dumb brain fart on my part. The scanlations go further than the official release, but I recommend just going to Webtoons just so you get some rad background music from time to time. I won't completely recommend it just yet, but it's interesting from what I've read and the music really did enhance certain moments.

I like it just because Korean webcomics read well off a phone so it's convenient to read on the go. Finally got around to God of High School, and it's pretty rad. Guess I'll switch to another romance or drama now that I'm caught up though.

Seriously though, Ruler of the Land is pretty rad. I'd link more iconic moments, but there's almost 400 chapters so finding certain cool fights with decent spreads is hard.
