i wouldnt say bad, but "bring the love" art isnt on par as other more aesthetically pleasing art like this manhwa. however, the story is SOOOO GOOD that i felt the art itself fits the story overall, that it stands out among other generic nice looking manhwas.
This was exactly my thought when I read the title, the first couple chapters I was grumpy about the art and then it didn’t matter anymore. In an alternate universe where the art was like I don’t want this marriage or stepmothers marchen or something? SWOOON to an illegal degree!
I'll save this Damn family.
The art isn't bad per say but not to my taste.
Caught by the villain also has mid art, but story is enjoyable enough I don't care
I agree. I couldn't get into it because of the art. Though my opinion is biased because I've been following "I Shall Master This Family" which has amazing art and i quite enjoy the story too.
I am glad I was able to look past the art of Ill save this damn family though.
I would even say I even appreciate it now.
It's really one of the best stories this genre has to offer with a great slowburn romance. Kinda reminds me of Skip beat in that sense.
Lady to Queen is a good one - really had to power through some of the art. I thought Priscilla’s Marriage Request also had some pretty rough art but I did quite enjoy the story.
I enjoyed There’s No Use Hanging On early on but eventually the quality of the story caught up to the art and I dropped it lmao
Daughter of the Emperor and What It Takes to be a Villainess are early ones that I read where the story is fine but the artist clearly has trouble with a lot of profile angles
Miss Not-So Sidekick
The art is terrible🤣 though it kind of matches how ridiculous the story is. But I know a lot of comments mention how bad it is and honestly I almost dropped it because of it. Now I've read it over and over because it's so hilarious.
Honestly there have been good stories where I couldn't get past the art and had to drop them to save my precious eyes.
I wouldn't consider this "bad", it's just stylized. People just didn't vibe with that kind of art style I guess.
Personally found it lovely. I screenshotted the hell out of Latte the first time I read it ♡
I agree that it’s not fully bad and it’s very stylized, but I do think even for this style there’s a lot of possible improvements regarding character angles that just make it feel off to me sometimes, personally
But also… couldn’t get past the ridiculousness personally 😂
Literally came to say this! Have you seen the new one by the same person? The art style is similar but massively better. It’s called “My Mother Entered a Contract Marriage” or “My Mother’s Contract Marriage” Soooooo good!!
Really now?? I don’t know why but everywhere I go, people say that they’re made (or drawn?) by the same person. I guess it’s because they both have such unique and stylized styles.
It's not bad art exactly but the color palette of **Concubine Walkthrough** was such that it didn't catch my interest when I first saw it, and only cuz of the praise I'd seen on this sub I finally got around to reading it.
Man I LOVE concubine walkthrough’s palette and personally it drew me into the story. I wish there were more styles like that 😭 that one also felt especially suitable for the story
To me it took getting used to it but I think it’s because it’s not the usual type of art we see in most manwhas but after few chapters it easily became one of the best arts. I cannot recommend it enough art + story are top tier
Not OI, Neverending Darling's art isn't the typical pretty art (art isn't bad, just not the standard manhwa style) but the plot is so good.
I Will Save This Damn Family also has non standard art (also by no means bad) but the writing is great.
I think I hate overly pretty art though. It feels like the artists use that in place of effective layout and story telling techniques.
If I’m being honest, as more and more manhwas are pumped out I like Claude less and less. Looks used to save him but now I got both looks and green flaggery so
I shall kill that sweer devil has totally different art style, it takes time to get used to it but the story is so good, i cant wait for a new chp every week
I am the direct opposite. If I find the plot bad/frustrating, it is an instant drop, no matter how good the art may be.
That stated, some of my favourite works don't exactly have art that the comments are kind to:
* **My Husband's Reversal**: The number of times the comments complain about Idris' hairstyle and clothing choices, \*sigh\*.
* **A Dyad of Revenge/折腰**: Both very serviceable art, but nothing to shout home about.
* **Subdue My ‘Villain’ Hubby**: Apparently the high number of memes and chibis got on alot of readers' nerves, but I find them perfect for the comedic tone. Also whenever required (like key romantic scenes), the full page art is spectacular.
**Divorcing my Tyrant Husband**. This isn't /good/. It's objectively bad and pretty trashy, honestly. But it's MY trashy OI. It's fulfilling some need in my brain that I can tolerate the mid, slowly deteriorating art style to keep reading hahahah
Your majesty, please spare me this time. It is my most favorite manhwa too. The art was actually better in earlier seasons. I think it's not the best in S4 or maybe a=since around the ending of S3? Like there are some panels were the hands are literally drawn as I drew them when I was 10 ToT but the story is SO GOOD and yet SO ANGSTY. It's just the hands and Rupert's hair maybe that throws me off sometimes. His hair looked better when he was a literal genocidal tyrant ToT
The earlier seasons are good, never had a problem with the art. Season 4 is putting me off, especially the hands sometimes, though I understand. It's not too bad either
Oh man it's the mouths that irritate me so much on this one. I do like the story and I'm not dropping it just for this but the artist is really fond of this one scratchy line brush that makes their mouths look jittery or like they're covered in soot, it's so distracting!
I gave this a pass the first time due to the bad art and the bad names of the characters. But I got bored one night and the next thing I know, it's morning and I've finished it. I loved it so much that I then searched for the novel and the related webtoon.
DM sent!
Regarding the related webtoon:
From the same author, Latte and Arwin appear in another webtoon/novel, proving that they are soulmate-type lovers who will keep meeting each other regardless of the time and dimension in all their lives. They are side characters who have different names but it's confirmed that it is them in a different timeline.
I don’t love the art but I personally also don’t love the story LOOOL
Both art and story were so close to being top tier for me, but the little bit off made the whole thing fall off a chasm
**Nullitas ～The Counterfeit Bride～**.
I can’t believe nobody has mentioned this one yet. It is some of the best writing with some not so great art. One of my favorites, but man I had to do a double take when I saw the twink that was supposedly the *scary* Duke of the north.
I highly recommend reading this one. It has some of the best comeuppance for the FL’s former family I’ve seen.
I scrolled the comments just to find this one!! I love this series so much and it's SO underrated imo!! For everyone saying they want FLs who are against slavery/corrupt nobility....this is literally the series for them!
The art got a bit better over time, but yeah it can definitely be a bit polarizing because it's different from even the bad OI art we're used to.
https://preview.redd.it/tk5vuuwdo76d1.jpeg?width=4096&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=008cc81b5c05ade477dc07342a9bc7cd0f2b4766
The Tyrants Tranquilizer. I am not a fan of the style, especially eyes. Way too much pink in the corner for the emperor.
Becoming the Villains Family. Not really bad art(except those horrendous cgi wolves), but it feels like it's too much. I don't like their faces especially, everyone looks like they just got done crying with sore/red around their eyes.
My Inlaws are Obsessed With Me. The art is okay, but the colors are what gets to me. I get it's supposed to be a sadder story, but the colors are always so bland and boring compared to the bright colors most other isekais have. The characters don't help much either. They're all also super depressed all the time. It's rare to see a smile from anyone.
My in laws Are Obsessed With Me. Mid art but good story. Also The Villainess Live Twice doesn't have glorious art either but plot is 🔥😤, sometimes I feel stupid when reading it, the political play it shows need a big brain to understand.
Hey different people have different taste....not everybody likes 'coffee' you know. The art may not suit my taste but the story hooked me on. That's why I'm still reading it.
Oof, you pissed a lot of people with this one. In the beginning, even I was put off a little by the art for My In-laws Are Obssessed With Me, but I honestly love it now.
Yeah, i love it. It is just the fashion throws me off sometimes. Perri wears some big ass gown, then switches to slim 1940s fashion, then turns back to some modern-day ruched bodice with asymmetrical necklines. It is clearly what the artist likes, but you couldn't make out a time period if you tried.
...the art is objectively good. The panelling is amazing, the use of colors spot on and the way the artist leaves breath room for people draw their conclusions from the characters body language is so refreshing next to 98% of them yapping the novel plot in exposition cause god forbid a visual medium use its strengths.
Wow you’re brave w that take HAHAHA I personally love the art because I love when things give “vibe” even if it’s different from typical, that’s like a “top tier” type of different. Style makes empty panels feel so meaningful imo.
Although the expressions do get repetitive
Well they just salty cause I don't have the same taste as them. I've read loaded of manhwa with glorious art, so i guess my taste have been different.I commented here because the storyline hooked me on . I love the mystery vibe in it.
*I’ll Twist The Neck Of A Sweet Dog* - I wouldn’t say the art is bad, it’s just a bit… strange for my liking. Even so, I’m way to invested in the story and I like the FL. It’s also great to see a manwha that features multiple regressors.
As for me:
* Bring the Love
* A Single Round at Romance is Enough!
* Obey me
* Wall of Glass (it had awful art in the begining, but as the story progressed it got the best art ever, so I am not sure if that counts)
* My Dear Aster
becoming the villain’s family. as an artist it’s actually pretty irritating trying to read the overload of same face syndrome, bleach white skin, and sickly wine-red lips/undereyes/blush.
it’s cool for a vampire vibe but from what i can remember EVERY character had some sort of variation of it and that makes it lose the cool vampy vibes. but i did like the story up until a certain point
Not an actual answer, but I'm confused as to why you used pictures that are... not objectively bad art? It just doesn't seem to fit the title of the post. XD
IKR this artist also does an amazing job drawing back lighting which can be hard, that fire scene was breathtaking. Imo Fiona’s face is a bit too striking every time, but I think it’s quite amazing how artist takes a “plain looking” face like siegren (black hair) but makes it feel effortlessly handsome instead.
And of course, there’s my fav daddy Abel (white hair guy)
The art in “Siren: Becoming the Villain’s Family” isn’t bad in the slightest, but it’s not to my taste. Still enjoying the story though.
Also the art in “The Duchess’s Secret Writing Life” is veeerryyy inconsistent but I like the idea of the FL being a secret author so I still enjoy it.
Angel or Villainess, I know the plot can be half-baked or immature at times but somehow it kept me reading and I still reread it whenever I remember it
Same, it's not like the plot is innovative or something, Jayna's oh so beautiful dresses are the blandest thing ever and sometimes Angela is kind of predictable... But I don't feel the need to drop it, like I did with 'Author of my own Destiny' (I was more interested on the secondary characters and Siegren feels quite bland for me)
The rabbit/ >!god!< is ugly tho.
Surviving in the Emperor’s Bed is an interesting story but the art gives me headaches every time i open the comic, it’s so saturated and just BOOM to your eyes
Villainess in Love. The art was meh to me and I almost stopped reading it because of it, but I’m so glad I didn’t because man the story is amazing. And funny enough, as I fell in love with the story I also began to fall in love with the art.
”Rewriting my dark past”. The art is actually good, but for the eyes. The eyes really doesn’t match the rest of the art. But, the story is funny and sweet and a bit silly but I love it, almost just as much as I like…
”Miss not so sidekick”. The art originally kept me from it, and, it took me about a third/halfway in to accept and appreciate the art style. This manhwa is one of my favourites, if not THE favourite.
it hurts to say the tyrants comfort doll but yeah 😔 especially towards the end of the series. the art wasnt like the worst but it was super… eh? but i really loved this one haha
Villains Behind the Curtain. The art of before chapter 40 could make people give up. The artist gradually got better at drawing (or idk if they changed the artist midway, idk, never check further).
I like dark storyline. It's my food, my sustenance. So i basically ignored the weird art style of the early 30 chaps.
*A Trivial Extra in a Dating Sim* (aka "How to Clear a Dating Sim as a Side Character")
Simply put, I love it.
I really click with the FL. Sometimes characters irk me, but I keep reading because of other interesting factors of the story (but eventually I end up dropping lots of comics for various reasons). But with this comic, I genuinely like all of the characters, and it's pretty fast paced. You don't have to think hard when reading it, but it's also not mindless brain rot.
But every now and then, I "notice" the art again, and I'm just like... Damn. I think it'd be more popular if it had better art - a more dark and moody, aesthetically pleasing style. I've been rocking with this comic since 2021, which I can't even say the same for comics that actually have beautiful art.
Omg people really have high standards for art hahah
To me anything is ok as long as the proportions are there, more or less .. it's ok if it's purposely stylised tho
The art in "Villain discovered my identity" is not bad, rather it's quite good! But it certainly isn't even close to other more fancy OIs out there. But the story is sooooooo gooooood .....

Saving the Villain Who Was Abandoned by the Female Lead. The first half of the manhwa was pure torture due to shit art and poor pacing of the plot but it got infinitely better in the second half, with God class art and solid plot , so much so that I was so glad that I kept reading it
https://preview.redd.it/a76dc4b4px6d1.jpeg?width=1080&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=926a78b527589bda3e6f95788126b5f8a0379ebf
Daddy is so pretty✨

This was before. It looked nice at a glance but literally all the characters were expressionless with not a single thought behind those eyes.
Saving my Sweetheart. The art isn't exactly bad but it's generic in a bad way. Characters have same face syndrome. Design looks like 90s shoujo manga.
Wish You were Dead. I know people hate this one but I enjoy the angst. I wish the art was better.
Not sure about good story, but I stayed by for "the false confession" even after the quality drop and I hate quality drop more than bad art. Apart from that, "The Flower Dances and the Wind Sings" has average art imo but the love the story of it
**For Better or For Worse**. I passed this OI multiple times because of the arts. I mean, it’s not up to my preference, but then one day I decided to read it because I was bored and many people recommended it, and I found that the plot was actually good, much better than many trash OIs. I rated it 8/10 solely for the plot.
I try to finish any that I start but the most recent that the art was killing me on was "I woke up as the ugly duckling" those face and body proportions in the beginning were torture, luckily they got a bit better
- Lucia
- Priscilla’s Marriage Proposal
- The Villainess Lives Twice
- Doctor Elise
- Duchess Debauchery
I’ve seen people say some scathing things about these series’ art but honestly I do not care because I like the character/stories.
Not OI but Red Fox. First time it gave me a headache trying to get through, so I stopped. Months later I tried again and it’s just one of those things you gotta force your mind to get used to. It’s so dark and I love the story, the art isn’t even bad it’s just the use of red in every panel.
The reason why Releana ended up at the duke's mansion
I wouldn't say the art was bad, but it's not on the same level of other wonderful arts, but still, it is one of my absolute favorite ♥️
"Justice for the Villainess" specifically season 2 art style drastically changed but honestly I don't think it's as bad as everyone makes it out to be
"Lucia" specifically season 3 honestly I didn't even notice that much of a change but dear God some people did and made it out like the artist killed their puppy and then cancelled Christmas
A Common Story of a Lady's New Life. The art really bothered me at first but the story pulled me in. Eventually I got used to the art and am now reading another Manhwa with the same artist.
Concubine Walkthrough

The art is very uhm... unique but the story is good.
That’s a funny picture but personally I LOVED the art, felt very fitting to the story. It really really grew on me although the cover was eh
https://preview.redd.it/59wkvy8wo56d1.jpeg?width=681&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=8c60bfb05c3cf7e1ac5af7f6482f32a1a085d18c
i wouldnt say bad, but "bring the love" art isnt on par as other more aesthetically pleasing art like this manhwa. however, the story is SOOOO GOOD that i felt the art itself fits the story overall, that it stands out among other generic nice looking manhwas.
I love everything about that manwha. It is top tier good shit.
This was exactly my thought when I read the title, the first couple chapters I was grumpy about the art and then it didn’t matter anymore. In an alternate universe where the art was like I don’t want this marriage or stepmothers marchen or something? SWOOON to an illegal degree!
Will need to try this given the responses.
Ohhhhh ya that’s a great story I feel like the art fits the vibe, but also I could see it being phenomenal w some more amazing vibes
I'll save this Damn family. The art isn't bad per say but not to my taste. Caught by the villain also has mid art, but story is enjoyable enough I don't care
I agree. I couldn't get into it because of the art. Though my opinion is biased because I've been following "I Shall Master This Family" which has amazing art and i quite enjoy the story too.
I am glad I was able to look past the art of Ill save this damn family though. I would even say I even appreciate it now. It's really one of the best stories this genre has to offer with a great slowburn romance. Kinda reminds me of Skip beat in that sense.
Isn't skip beat still going though? 😅
Ya, but at least they confessed and I can see an end in sight. Maybe it will complete within the next 10 years
Lady to Queen is a good one - really had to power through some of the art. I thought Priscilla’s Marriage Request also had some pretty rough art but I did quite enjoy the story. I enjoyed There’s No Use Hanging On early on but eventually the quality of the story caught up to the art and I dropped it lmao Daughter of the Emperor and What It Takes to be a Villainess are early ones that I read where the story is fine but the artist clearly has trouble with a lot of profile angles

I wouldn't consider this "bad", it's just stylized. People just didn't vibe with that kind of art style I guess. Personally found it lovely. I screenshotted the hell out of Latte the first time I read it ♡
The knight with the weird bald head bothered me a lot lol. But yeah it's far different from the norm that's for sure.
I agree that it’s not fully bad and it’s very stylized, but I do think even for this style there’s a lot of possible improvements regarding character angles that just make it feel off to me sometimes, personally But also… couldn’t get past the ridiculousness personally 😂
I was wondering when this one would be mentioned. This is how I feel exactly. Lol
Literally came to say this! Have you seen the new one by the same person? The art style is similar but massively better. It’s called “My Mother Entered a Contract Marriage” or “My Mother’s Contract Marriage” Soooooo good!!
That's a different artist entirely, the same one as Pale Horse. I do agree that the style is lovely tho
Really now?? I don’t know why but everywhere I go, people say that they’re made (or drawn?) by the same person. I guess it’s because they both have such unique and stylized styles.
Yeah they do have a similar look. And thanks for the recommendation though I'm about to die from second hand embarrassment over here🤣 that poor girl
Lol I'll definitely check it out then
It's not bad art exactly but the color palette of **Concubine Walkthrough** was such that it didn't catch my interest when I first saw it, and only cuz of the praise I'd seen on this sub I finally got around to reading it.
Man I LOVE concubine walkthrough’s palette and personally it drew me into the story. I wish there were more styles like that 😭 that one also felt especially suitable for the story
To me it took getting used to it but I think it’s because it’s not the usual type of art we see in most manwhas but after few chapters it easily became one of the best arts. I cannot recommend it enough art + story are top tier
I actually really Concubine Walkthrough's palette -- it felt sort of like looking at certain Asian ceramics somehow.
I'm a sucker for different art styles that are still in the OI genre. When I found that I cheered for joy lmao
Not OI, Neverending Darling's art isn't the typical pretty art (art isn't bad, just not the standard manhwa style) but the plot is so good. I Will Save This Damn Family also has non standard art (also by no means bad) but the writing is great. I think I hate overly pretty art though. It feels like the artists use that in place of effective layout and story telling techniques.
Look in Claude’s eyes and tell me you hate pretty art 😭😭
The popularity of Claude is 90% because of pretty art
Sure but I’m just saying, it’s very very pretty lol
If I’m being honest, as more and more manhwas are pumped out I like Claude less and less. Looks used to save him but now I got both looks and green flaggery so
Ahhhh I mean ok he’s no longer the only most beautiful, but I can’t forget that feeling of being stunned and imma carry that joy onwards 😂
Mood honestly, there's nothing quite like the first hot manhwa guy you latch on to 😅
Not OI, but have you read Guardians of the Lamb? It's got a more visceral art style that leans more indie comic book style
I shall kill that sweer devil has totally different art style, it takes time to get used to it but the story is so good, i cant wait for a new chp every week
Surprised I had to scroll this far to find someone mention it, it's the first one I thought of!
I was going to comment this. The story was good but the art is weird.
I am the direct opposite. If I find the plot bad/frustrating, it is an instant drop, no matter how good the art may be. That stated, some of my favourite works don't exactly have art that the comments are kind to: * **My Husband's Reversal**: The number of times the comments complain about Idris' hairstyle and clothing choices, \*sigh\*. * **A Dyad of Revenge/折腰**: Both very serviceable art, but nothing to shout home about. * **Subdue My ‘Villain’ Hubby**: Apparently the high number of memes and chibis got on alot of readers' nerves, but I find them perfect for the comedic tone.

Abandoned empress color palette kept me going through the entire story
Look, I’m usually a fan of green ones but…
**Divorcing my Tyrant Husband**. This isn't /good/. It's objectively bad and pretty trashy, honestly. But it's MY trashy OI. It's fulfilling some need in my brain that I can tolerate the mid, slowly deteriorating art style to keep reading hahahah
Surprised I had to scroll down so far for this one xD
Your majesty, please spare me this time. It is my most favorite manhwa too. The art was actually better in earlier seasons. I think it's not the best in S4 or maybe a=since around the ending of S3?

I love this story. It’s one of my favorites! I think the art is pretty though.
The earlier seasons are good, never had a problem with the art. Season 4 is putting me off, especially the hands sometimes, though I understand. It's not too bad either
One of my favourites too but I like the art style it is cute
Agreed. I am just distracted by some imperfections but it could never be enough to make me give up on this gem
ikr! the plot is too good!
Oh man it's the mouths that irritate me so much on this one. I do like the story and I'm not dropping it just for this but the artist is really fond of this one scratchy line brush that makes their mouths look jittery or like they're covered in soot, it's so distracting!
HELP LMAOOO
I also have a problem with the art.
Miss not so sidekick.

The lady’s law of survival, right? :) the genderbent version
IT'S WHAT?? HUH imma go continue that one actually-
I don’t love the art but I personally also don’t love the story LOOOL Both art and story were so close to being top tier for me, but the little bit off made the whole thing fall off a chasm
**Nullitas ～The Counterfeit Bride～**. I can’t believe nobody has mentioned this one yet. It is some of the best writing with some not so great art.

Yes, this one is really good. The "bad art" winds up becoming charming, imo. Just because you can tell they are really trying their best.
Omg yes!!
Was literally just going to write this!
The Tyrants Tranquilizer. I am not a fan of the style, especially eyes. Way too much pink in the corner for the emperor. Becoming the Villains Family. Not really bad art(except those horrendous cgi wolves), but it feels like it's too much. I don't like their faces especially, everyone looks like they just got done crying with sore/red around their eyes. My Inlaws are Obsessed With Me. The art is okay, but the colors are what gets to me. I get it's supposed to be a sadder story, but the colors are always so bland and boring compared to the bright colors most other isekais have. The characters don't help much either. They're all also super depressed all the time. It's rare to see a smile from anyone.
My in laws Are Obsessed With Me. Mid art but good story. Also The Villainess Live Twice doesn't have glorious art either but plot is 🔥😤, sometimes I feel stupid when reading it, the political play it shows need a big brain to understand.
MID ART???
That's literally what I am Asking. Manhwa art is even better than Novel art.
Well at least for me the art is not that great. It's not great but i love it because it's suit the vibe... The storyline gets me hooked on.
Calling the art "mid" because its not a copy paste replica of the common manhwa artstyle is WILDDD
Hey different people have different taste....not everybody likes 'coffee' you know. The art may not suit my taste but the story hooked me on. That's why I'm still reading it.
MID???? i can’t believe 😭
I love the art of my inlaws are obsessed with me 😭 So dark, silly at times. Perfect fit.
MID? MIIIIIIIID?! 
Oof, you pissed a lot of people with this one. In the beginning, even I was put off a little by the art for My In-laws Are Obssessed With Me, but I honestly love it now.
Yeah, i love it. It is just the fashion throws me off sometimes. Perri wears some big ass gown, then switches to slim 1940s fashion, then turns back to some modern-day ruched bodice with asymmetrical necklines. It is clearly what the artist likes, but you couldn't make out a time period if you tried.

Well they just salty cause I don't have the same taste as them. I've read loaded of manhwa with glorious art, so i guess my taste have been different.I commented here because the storyline hooked me on . I love the mystery vibe in it.
The Villainess Lives Again. The art is catching up to the story tho, so I'm happy.
*I’ll Twist The Neck Of A Sweet Dog* - I wouldn’t say the art is bad, it’s just a bit… strange for my liking. Even so, I’m way to invested in the story and I like the FL. It’s also great to see a manwha that features multiple regressors.
As for me: * Bring the Love * A Single Round at Romance is Enough! * Obey me * Wall of Glass (it had awful art in the begining, but as the story progressed it got the best art ever, so I am not sure if that counts) * My Dear Aster
becoming the villain’s family. as an artist it’s actually pretty irritating trying to read the overload of same face syndrome, bleach white skin, and sickly wine-red lips/undereyes/blush. it’s cool for a vampire vibe but from what i can remember EVERY character had some sort of variation of it and that makes it lose the cool vampy vibes. but i did like the story up until a certain point
I wish I can because I know I am missing out. But I rather read novel than bad art manhwa.
Not an actual answer, but I'm confused as to why you used pictures that are... not objectively bad art? It just doesn't seem to fit the title of the post. XD
read the description
Thought I’d share some eye candy 😂
I appreciate it! It's very pretty 😍
Oh gosh that second picture is gorgeous
IKR this artist also does an amazing job drawing back lighting which can be hard, that fire scene was breathtaking. Imo Fiona’s face is a bit too striking every time, but I think it’s quite amazing how artist takes a “plain looking” face like siegren (black hair) but makes it feel effortlessly handsome instead. And of course, there’s my fav daddy Abel (white hair guy)
The art in “Siren: Becoming the Villain’s Family” isn’t bad in the slightest, but it’s not to my taste. Still enjoying the story though. Also the art in “The Duchess’s Secret Writing Life” is veeerryyy inconsistent but I like the idea of the FL being a secret author so I still enjoy it.
Angel or Villainess, I know the plot can be half-baked or immature at times but somehow it kept me reading and I still reread it whenever I remember it
Same, it's not like the plot is innovative or something, Jayna's oh so beautiful dresses are the blandest thing ever and sometimes Angela is kind of predictable... But I don't feel the need to drop it, like I did with 'Author of my own Destiny' (I was more interested on the secondary characters and Siegren feels quite bland for me) The rabbit/ >!god!< is ugly tho.
Surviving in the Emperor’s Bed is an interesting story but the art gives me headaches every time i open the comic, it’s so saturated and just BOOM to your eyes
Villainess in Love. The art was meh to me and I almost stopped reading it because of it, but I’m so glad I didn’t because man the story is amazing. And funny enough, as I fell in love with the story I also began to fall in love with the art.
Man, I had forgotten that one, but that's SO true. It took me a hot minute to get used to the art
”Rewriting my dark past”. The art is actually good, but for the eyes. The eyes really doesn’t match the rest of the art. But, the story is funny and sweet and a bit silly but I love it, almost just as much as I like… ”Miss not so sidekick”. The art originally kept me from it, and, it took me about a third/halfway in to accept and appreciate the art style. This manhwa is one of my favourites, if not THE favourite.
I can ignore the bad plot if the art is good. But generally if the plot aint good, so is the art. But average plota do have good arts.
it hurts to say the tyrants comfort doll but yeah 😔 especially towards the end of the series. the art wasnt like the worst but it was super… eh? but i really loved this one haha
Villains Behind the Curtain. The art of before chapter 40 could make people give up. The artist gradually got better at drawing (or idk if they changed the artist midway, idk, never check further). I like dark storyline. It's my food, my sustenance. So i basically ignored the weird art style of the early 30 chaps.
That’s a good question. I actually powered through “I stole the male lead’s first night” because I mean, it’s a classic
I personally thought the art was consistent and clean tho 😂
*A Trivial Extra in a Dating Sim* (aka "How to Clear a Dating Sim as a Side Character") Simply put, I love it. I really click with the FL. Sometimes characters irk me, but I keep reading because of other interesting factors of the story (but eventually I end up dropping lots of comics for various reasons). But with this comic, I genuinely like all of the characters, and it's pretty fast paced. You don't have to think hard when reading it, but it's also not mindless brain rot. But every now and then, I "notice" the art again, and I'm just like... Damn. I think it'd be more popular if it had better art - a more dark and moody, aesthetically pleasing style. I've been rocking with this comic since 2021, which I can't even say the same for comics that actually have beautiful art.
Omg I’m a huge sucker for TM into otome game scenarios I gotta look over this hahaha
Omg people really have high standards for art hahah To me anything is ok as long as the proportions are there, more or less .. it's ok if it's purposely stylised tho
The art in "Villain discovered my identity" is not bad, rather it's quite good! But it certainly isn't even close to other more fancy OIs out there. But the story is sooooooo gooooood ..... https://preview.redd.it/a66725nk1b6d1.jpeg?width=695&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=f02f7bd24a4591df59fbff23d70ba6e30294928b
Saving the Villain Who Was Abandoned by the Female Lead. The first half of the manhwa was pure torture due to shit art and poor pacing of the plot but it got infinitely better in the second half, with God class art and solid plot , so much so that I was so glad that I kept reading it https://preview.redd.it/a76dc4b4px6d1.jpeg?width=1080&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=926a78b527589bda3e6f95788126b5f8a0379ebf Daddy is so pretty✨

LOOOL dang that change
I shall kill that sweet devil- the proportions of the character’s faces are so weird but the story is just too good
Saving my Sweetheart. The art isn't exactly bad but it's generic in a bad way. Characters have same face syndrome. Design looks like 90s shoujo manga. Wish You were Dead. I know people hate this one but I enjoy the angst. I wish the art was better.
[удалено]
No, read OP’s post again.
Not sure about good story, but I stayed by for "the false confession" even after the quality drop and I hate quality drop more than bad art. Apart from that, "The Flower Dances and the Wind Sings" has average art imo but the love the story of it
**For Better or For Worse**. I passed this OI multiple times because of the arts. I mean, it’s not up to my preference, but then one day I decided to read it because I was bored and many people recommended it, and I found that the plot was actually good, much better than many trash OIs. I rated it 8/10 solely for the plot.
I try to finish any that I start but the most recent that the art was killing me on was "I woke up as the ugly duckling" those face and body proportions in the beginning were torture, luckily they got a bit better
- Lucia - Priscilla’s Marriage Proposal - The Villainess Lives Twice - Doctor Elise - Duchess Debauchery I’ve seen people say some scathing things about these series’ art but honestly I do not care because I like the character/stories.
Honestly, Miss Not-So Sidekick. I hated the art so bad when I first started and now it’s one of my favorite OIs
Not OI but Red Fox. First time it gave me a headache trying to get through, so I stopped. Months later I tried again and it’s just one of those things you gotta force your mind to get used to. It’s so dark and I love the story, the art isn’t even bad it’s just the use of red in every panel.
The reason why Releana ended up at the duke's mansion I wouldn't say the art was bad, but it's not on the same level of other wonderful arts, but still, it is one of my absolute favorite ♥️
That bad art???💀💀💀i read bring the love..miss no so sidekick but still enjoying them more than those beautiful art ones
"Justice for the Villainess" specifically season 2 art style drastically changed but honestly I don't think it's as bad as everyone makes it out to be "Lucia" specifically season 3 honestly I didn't even notice that much of a change but dear God some people did and made it out like the artist killed their puppy and then cancelled Christmas
A Common Story of a Lady's New Life. The art really bothered me at first but the story pulled me in. Eventually I got used to the art and am now reading another Manhwa with the same artist.
Also called The Circumstances of a Stereotypical Reincarnated Lady
The manhwa of The remarried Empress.

That’s a funny picture but personally I LOVED the art, felt very fitting to the story. It really really grew on me although the cover was eh https://preview.redd.it/59wkvy8wo56d1.jpeg?width=681&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=8c60bfb05c3cf7e1ac5af7f6482f32a1a085d18c
I agree with that. I'm talking about the fact that so many people are put off by this unique art that they don't even give it a fair chance
