Fast-reading Manhwa
Many promising manhwas remain unfinished or suffer from a rushed conclusion despite rich storytelling and strong potential
It often happens that several abandoned or suspended manhwas are actually based on original light novels. This peculiarity opens an alternative path for fans, allowing them to continue the full story through these light novels, often more detailed and providing a satisfying ending that the manhwa did not always offer. Thus, enthusiasts can deepen their narrative experience by exploring the original source material.

Even manhwas enjoying growing popularity and a loyal fanbase can disappoint if their conclusion is too quick or sloppy. The reasons for such abandonment are multiple: creative burnout of the artist, lack of editorial support, or financial constraints may force a premature end. That is why it is essential for readers to actively support their favorite series through legal reading, sharing information, or purchasing related products, to contribute to the longevity and proper closure of these works.
10. Noblesse: a captivating work deserving a more developed conclusion
Noblesse won a large audience with its plot mixing action, vampires, and mysteries, enriched with humor and strong dynamics. However, the end of this much-loved series frustrated many fans who wished for a more complete epilogue.
Noblesse’s reputation is bolstered by its anime adaptation, which expanded its popularity. Nevertheless, a narrative extension with a few additional chapters would have resolved all remaining plot points and offered a more satisfying ending. Despite these limitations, Noblesse remains a must-read in the action-fantasy genre with a good dose of humor.
9. I Became a True Villain: a saga with potential hindered by a rushed ending
This series features Seria, a complex antagonist in a manhwa highlighting "villain" characters. The rich universe and numerous plot twists did not enjoy sufficient development due to a too fast narrative pace.
The manhwa brilliantly brings its protagonists to life, but the lack of time to fully explore the story and incorporate some additions from the original light novel generated a disordered narrative and many unanswered questions. For passionate readers, the light novel version is an excellent alternative, offering a more coherent and complete plot.
8. PathFinder: a light novel surpassing the manhwa adaptation
Like "I Became a True Villain," the PathFinder manhwa suffered from premature interruption, leaving its universe’s exceptional narrative potential underused. The story follows Garam, a young woman involuntarily plunged into a parallel world, facing difficult family and personal sacrifices.
The realistic treatment of this story is rare in manhwas, but the series stopped around chapter 60, leaving a void for readers. A more faithful adaptation of the original light novel with strict planning could have propelled PathFinder to be one of the best works in the genre. The psychological depth and background details are truly worth discovering in their full version.
7. The Legendary Moonlight Sculptor: a long and uncertain pause
This work gathered a loyal community thanks to its plot centered on Weed, a young man seeking a simple way to make a living before becoming a sculptor with unique powers linked to his artistic creations. This manhwa is recognized for its detailed art that enhances reader immersion and interest.
A notable flaw lies in the variability of the art style between seasons and the prolonged suspension of publication, considered by many as an unofficial abandonment. For many fans, this manhwa was a major gateway into this universe, and the hope remains that Weed will return someday for a conclusion worthy of its importance.
6. Lee Gwak, the Martial Artist: a distinctive art style and a memorable hero
Lee Gwak stands out by a visual approach inspired by ink and traditional painting, offering an elegant aesthetic that quickly charms readers with its originality.
The story, more calm and slow-paced, can frustrate fans of fast rhythm. This martial arts manhwa suffers frequent interruptions, which limits its full development. Despite sometimes abrupt chapter endings, the hero is fascinating and the action scenes intense. Also adapted from a light novel, this work allows a deeper exploration for enthusiasts.
5. Barbarian Quest: a medieval world with an uncertain fate
Barbarian Quest stands out for its richly inspired medieval historical setting, plunged into a unique fantasy universe. Although the English translation is still active, the original series stopped after the second season without official announcement of a resumption.
This prolonged pause raises fears of possible cancellation, which would be a hard blow for fans. The work innovated in the manhwa genre by moving away from clichés centered on dungeons or game systems, offering a varied and refreshing approach.
4. A Happy Ending for Villains: a dark atmosphere too quickly concluded
This villains-focused manhwa offers a raw and realistic look at the characters’ inner darkness, which clearly differentiates it from the countless stories in the genre. Its narrative strength lies in this authentic exploration, far from traditional fairy-tale endings.
Despite an immersive atmosphere and undeniable qualities, the ending feels too brief and lacks dramatic weight. A few additional chapters would have forged a brighter finish, fitting the overall quality. However, the experience remains memorable and this series is recommended for all fans of dark and deep stories.
3. Legend of Asura - The Venomous Dragon: uncertain future and prolonged mystery
Legend of Asura - The Venom Dragon has become a true mystery for its fans since its sudden disappearance. No official statement confirmed its cancellation, yet several years have passed without a new chapter, increasing uncertainty about a possible resumption.
This series is distinguished by impressive drawings and a hero with unique toxic abilities. The complex plot, mixed with deep and nuanced antagonists, raises tension and delights readers. Centered on Jagang’s quest for revenge, this work remains very popular despite its chaotic trajectory.
2. Solitary Lady: a rich work hampered by uneven pacing
Solitary Lady started with great appeal thanks to its story about Hillis, a woman willing to do anything to escape death and the sufferings of her past lives. With 125 chapters so far, this series would have gained from expanding to better balance pacing and solidify narrative structure.
The rushed ending left some readers unsatisfied, but Hillis’s transformation journey remains engaging. Between revenge and quest for renewal, the story offers many twists. The associated light novel perfectly complements this plot, while the manhwa adds an impressive visual dimension, enriching the immersive experience.
1. The Duke’s Bored Daughter is My Master: immense potential wasted by a premature ending
The Duke’s Bored Daughter is My Master had all the elements to become a cornerstone of the reincarnation subgenre, with deep characters and well-constructed intrigue. Unfortunately, health issues of the artists and a rushed production led to a too quick ending.
With deeper development, "The Duke’s Bored Daughter" could have become a major work, offering dynamic character evolution and rich storytelling. Fans still hope for a resumption to close this adventure with the depth and attention it deserves.
