Veritas (an overview... sorta)

踊れ愚か者ども!
I was actually gonna do something like what I did with KHR, and say that it doesn't suck (and still doesn't) but I think i'd write about my relationships with Manhwas...
I personally do not like Manhwa, ironically enough being Korean. The reason for this is because they are almost always generic, in terms of art, writing, and overall composition. I think I've started maybe 10 or 12 series, (most of which I don't read mainly because I dropped them because they were overly bland) but 2 jewels have risen up in the ranks.
The first is Ubell Blatt, which ironically the most bland, mundane, manhwa I've ever read. In fact it's probably the most bland, mundane, comic that I've read, but I like it because it's over the top brooding seriousness and bullshit breaks the mundane meter and becomes something awesome.
Then we go into Veritas, which ironically is the exact opposite.
First off I'd like to say that, yes stereotypically Koreans and hard-headed elitist, (more so to the point since it seems that everything in this manga makes Koreans look like fucking supermen) but besides the point, the characters in this are above all interesting.... still the manhwa blandness is still there.
It's martial arts genre, and it does what I like to call, "the half-way mark of DB." A martial arts series that neither goes universe explosion energy beams, but doesn't go into sheer slapstick humor.
The characters are well rounded, and the artwork is phenomenal. And to be honest...I wouldn't mind getting topped by the main character >w>...

Overall there's some spastic over-the-top martial arts, but the writing keeps it's integrity. Also... there are tigers...
