Summary
A brief description of the manga I Used to Be a Boss:
Baphomet, the boss of the [Tower of Abyss], waits for a strong hunter who is able to fight on equal grounds against him. When he had grown bored of the repetitive battles, he began to gain interest in the world of humanity due to the trophies he had obtained from the dead hunters.

Fell off. Too slow and dragged out. I do enjoy a good lore dump, but this is as boring as can be. Trying to drum up sympathy for characters that I could not care less about.
It’s way too slow, long, confusing, roundabout. There is supposed to be 5-6? People who can defeat him in his prime boss state. We have met 0. MC is developing slowly with a lot of side quest that is progressing but no main quest progress. That’s my personal opinion.
………..The m is a bit…….
Story and characters just don’t interest me enough so I’m dropping it (chapter 89 atm)
It’s an incredible concept, but I don’t love that the system gives him everything. I wish he had to train hard.
He used to be a boss, but then the company went bust. Now he’s unemployed and unemployable.
The End!
story and arts becoming mid after chap 70
bro its nano machine all over again with arm collector fetish🗿
Read to ch 24. It’s not bad but it spins it’s wheels a lot. It’s kind of boring atm so i’m gonna take a break from this and come back if I feel like it.
44th Official manhwa Review
Plot 8.5/10 (pretty normal, get strong go brrr)
Uniqueness 8.9/10 (generic idea with different spins)
Onion Cutting Ninja, not really everything is deserved
Character Development 8.2/10 (slow but with more chapters should get much better)
Plot Development 8.1/10 (Started strong-weak to then sorta strong, assuming much greater threats than S ranks and Mythic towers)
Side Characters, pretty reasonable
Romance, its possible in the future with either System or one of the two gals
Art Style, 7.6/10 acceptable
Fit tags? Tragedy or Maybe Supernatural?
Violence, YESSSSSS BLOOODDDDDD
Comedy, it has some moments
MC 7/10 pretty standard MC
Action, super hyper action pacted
Adorable Creatures, THEY APPEAR GUYS
Villains, disgusting, hate able, need to die asap
Plot Armor, reasonable, He is not just straight up broken, but also still struggles in combat.
Memorability 7.8/10
Fights, Reasonable, but they also skip some fights sometimes
Backstory, hyper depressing and actual really messed up if you think about what he had to go through to get where he was.
Possession? you will understand at some point
Anti-hero? fits the description pretty reasonable
Revenge plot? no? maybe?
Waifus, we have options just depends on if our MC is too dense (bros not normal obviously we going give him slack since he has no idea what love even is)
Background art, fine
Character Art style, could be a little better but fine
Translation, Acceptable
Mistakes, very few from what I saw
How dark is it? Pretty dark tbh
Annoying characters, most of the villians are super just extra annoying for some reason
tips: none this time around
Pacing, acceptable for now
MC intellectual, he is not like Lelouch or Zhou Fan, but he isn’t dumb whatsoever
Approximate read time, No lifers 1-3 days, lifers 1 week- 1.5 week
Chapter finished at-65
Final Ranking 8.3/10 Tier System B
Bookmarked, Yes
Need to read? Depends on the person
Cya in the next one folks
(shameless plug-in)
I have an insta with all my reviews compiled in one place (themanhwawatcher77)
Just a dumb question is there romance in this manhwa ? Just a little ?
Absolutely amazing story, most unique shit to come from this genre in forever ☠️
Only bad thing I have to say about this is that the artsyle is really bland
Solo leveling vibes 🥶
When you do 10 chapters of flashbacks yeah no people get bored and leave, but hey at least they won’t have to work hard when they go on season break why expand the stories progression when you can keep putting it on the backburner for 10-20 chapters worth of random flashbacks lol
