"The God of High School" is a Korean Webtoon hosted by the Korean search engine Naver (naver.com). This full colored webtoon is about a young 17 year old boy named Mori Jin, who is an orphan that was adopted by his "grandfather" (no blood relation). All his life, Mori Jin was trained by his grandfather in the ways of Tae Kwon Do (Korean martial arts); however, if viewed from an outsiders standpoint, Mori Jin's Tae Kwon Do is unorthodox. Mori Jin is invited to the God of High School (GOH) competition, which seeks to determine the strongest martial artist and the strongest martial art style; the prize being a million dollars and a wish. Throughout the competition, Mori Jin befriends allies such as Dae-Wi Han (Karate) and Mi-Ra Yu (17, Kendo). Will Mori Jin be able to take the title of God of High School with his allies or will their alliance collapse due to their own selfish desires? The artwork in GOH is probably one of the best. It is typical of Korean webtoons, especially those by Naver, to be in full color with modern CG/shading. Colors are useful in this series to help distinguish characters, because many are introduced but have relatively minor roles in the progression of the plot. Happy Reading :D

I really liked the beginning, but as I went through the following chapters I didn't see any sign that there was going to be an end, as I continued reading more chapters I found repetitive the "we won, wait there's someone else who we need to beat that is overpowered for us" vibe and I really just found it boring at a certain point. It would be stupid of me to write this if I read 10 or 50 or 100 chapters, nooo, I read until 526 when I decided enough is enough, it had become plain boring and repetitive and just didn't know what was happening.

I honestly tried liking this series but just bored me to tears. It would've been better off if it was all about the Mori Jin since he has a pretty likeable personality. I just don't think he needs a sidekicks personally...The opponents were alright but mediocre nor interesting enough. Yeah this manhwa gonna be turned anime soon is not for me like 16 chapters was enough for me to realise this..... PS: To those who disagree with my review, just ignore me please thanks!
