Chapinator_X Posted February 25, 2020 Share Posted February 25, 2020 Didn’t know they were the ones financing the Tower of God adaptation. Wonder what it’ll mean for future manhua adaptations given how there aren’t as many South Korean comics getting the anime treatment. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PokeNirvash Posted February 25, 2020 Share Posted February 25, 2020 In/Spectre's already airing so I don't think it counts as a "coming soon". Also, I literally just remembered that it was God of High School that I read the first chapter of on Webtoon a ways back. I wonder if that promotional cow-girl ever showed up... Maybe now we'll get some actual plot and footage for HGS instead of more behind-the-scenes "muh diversity" videos. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The1gairon Posted February 25, 2020 Share Posted February 25, 2020 I'm not liking this idea. For one thing, they're joining the corporate bandwagon of using the word "original" to mean "unoriginal but we borrowed it and put it on our service and YOU'RE too lazy to do any of your own research on it, you fuckin consumer sheep!!!!".

Distinct Lunatic Posted February 25, 2020 Share Posted February 25, 2020 The only thing I'm concerned about is how diverse they'll all be, and how diverse the creative teams will be.

Distinct Lunatic Posted February 26, 2020 Share Posted February 26, 2020 Nice to see Top Gun back to his usual antics of downvoting things that I post. I'll give you something to downvotes, I still despise liberals and liberal media, and think that them and sjws are the worse thing that rose up in this past decade. I'm not just saying that to be edgy, I absolutely hate the effect they've had on the entertainment industry, and view them as a parasite that latches onto everything that people like and drains it of everything that made it good. If it comes down to Warren, Biden, Sanders, or Bloomberg VS Trump you can bet your ass I'll vote that orange bastard over any of them any day. 1 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What I do know is that Webtoon has cornered the market on webcomics for the most part for good or for ill, and while a lot of their content is crap, both Tower of God and God of High School are incredibly popular.
