“Lies! They’re nothing but lies! The Scriptures were fake, the Western Paradise does not exist, even the teachings of universal salvation is a scam! The Pilgrims perished during their journey, and the Eighty-One-Sufferings ended in our deaths. If I ever get another chance at life, I swear to abandon my naivety! I swear to never, ever be cowardly again! I swear to defy the Heavens with my dying breath!”

I simply came because I saw such bad reviews
Kk, I just read 3 chapters. Well, this certainly isn’t the worst I’ve seen. I’m a Chinese person so at least I understand the context. They don’t provide context because every Chinese person reads Jouney to the West, so it’s normal to assume you already know the context before reading. However, the problem comes when you suddenly have a western audience reading it, the author probably didn’t expect it either. To most people, it’s a completely new world build and cultural references, and the story already began before world-building, so obviously, it looks like a mess.
I won’t bother explaining, I’ll just tell you you gotta at least read or finished watching the entire series on Jouney to the West to even understand what’s going on.
Can’t really blame the translator either, translating this is no different from translating the bible, except this is Buddhism instead of Christianity. Journey to the West is a cultural piece of classic after all.
Personally, I hate alternative fiction on classics because 99% of the time they ruin it. There’re insider jokes on making Monkey King marry the fox demon, or making the monk marry… etc. The point is people suck at creating an alternative storyline for classics. Like you can’t recreate Lord of the Ring either.
My point is, I get it, you can hate it, but I don’t think it deserves this much.
another chaina shet manhua ….
I looked at the rating and got intrested. Don’t make the same mistake.
Wow 1.9 rating is it that bad?
Its good
Ok I’m back from reading it and I’m a little confused. Why is the rating so low? They didn’t exactly do anything wrong here. They lack a lot of context but that’s as far as it goes. The translation is good considering it’s a manhua, and the MC isn’t trash
I wouldn’t say it’s a 10/10, but it’s at least a 6, if not a 7.
I’m starting to feel like the only reason it has such a low rating is because of that nonsense with the country accent. That was indeed annoying. Or is it because people are just too dense to connect the dots themselves? Either way it’s not a bad one so far.
Oh my God I’ve never seen such reviews. I’ll take a step into this one and see if I come out like yall.
they lucky i cant rate 0
This is the lowest rating I have ever encountered
Like Stillmst said, it definitely has that martial arts manhua that’s never gonna end feel.
First chapter is great
Sadly it only goes downhill
I defy your existence to the point I shall never read you, I shall never speak of you, or shall I ever even think of you.
I won’t lie, the first chapter seemed interesting as I LOVE wukong, but MAN am I dissapointed by all the following chapters;
why this is manhwa korean?its chineese comic rite?
