The Strongest Florist

[lordsavor]

Is he being rewarded for doing pointless things? Like in mmorpg perspective, how can a high player/veteran lose against a fucking newbie florist? If the dev rewarded him for looking at a flower for months then all of the playerbase would be incentivized for doing useless shit. I can't wait to look at a min-max guide and see "step 1. dig dirt for 1 month to get 200% exp boost". Can other players do the same thing as him? If so again, it forces people to do useless shit to be rewarded, if not then it's bad game design, he is just lucky to be the first one to look at a flower for months and the competitive scene would be ruined. Idk I'm looking into this too much and can't read it.

It'll be a while before it catches up to these scans, but Webtoon just started an English release for this. It's got 3 episodes available as of 3/12 and 5 episodes more available with fast pass.

It will be free to read on the webtoon app, but it will be a while before it catches up to this. Still a good way to read free and still support the author!

Tl;dr: 8/10. It’s… just endearing.

As I reached the final chapter, the artist for this manhwa said “This series may not have been perfect, but I sincerely thank everyone who has followed Jaeho’s(Our MC) journey up to this point.” And… I think I appreciated that sincerity, but Jaeho’s journey is perfect, if we look from his POV.

This story is… endearing, for the most part. It’s not like other manhwas who focuses on the MC getting stronger, and instead stuck to the premise up until we needed to tie the loose ends of the story on the latter half. This is a story of our MC establishing a flower shop in the game, and I promise you, it’s a good premise. See, people like to be strong, be on the top, be a leader. But this story begs the question: “Are you really having fun doing that?” It approaches the VR subgenre of manga as someone from… say… Loopy’s POV on a civilisation event. They are doing these games for one thing only, and for them that’s fun. People forget that games were made to be fun, and although this manhwa is flawed, it never left the premise of our MC playing the game because he loves flowers.

Story: 8/10
Art: 7/10
Characters: 7/10
Recommendable: Yes
Re-readable: Ehhh…
