I get what you're talking about, I feel like SL is for 12 Yo kids looking for badass mc but I think it's still OK with good drawings tbh. At least not the worst manga :/

Cultivator in reverse world is so bad I can't understand why u guys find it good. The story is a mess. I literally don't understand, even by making effort, the author just drop some random words impossible to understand. The art is passable but still quite mediocre, plz explain what u find good on him

Thats a gold mine ur giving me here. And yeah, I saw lot of isekai and they make 80% of those Mangas which aren't worth even 30s of my precious time. That's sad to see so much authors not trying to do anything creative and just choosing the easier way of isekai, just to be dropped 3 months later sigh

Most isekai or harem tend to repel me after first pages,
so I think the worst manga I read (almost) completely is Tomo-chan is a girl,
one of the most vulgar display of wasted talent I had the misfortune to put my eyes on.
As a matter of principle I tend to avoid school comedies unless they are very nonsensical or well-written,
which tends to be rare (Sakamoto was one of the most bearable and interesting):
I should have stuck to that.

@421cookies Totally agree

I'm going to get a lot of hate for this, but MPD Psycho. I didn't like the art style at all, and it reads like a symbolic mystery manga but without any good symbolism or mystery. The "MPD" (multiple personality disorder) element is the worst part. It's either poorly done or way too heavy handed, or both. I'm also not sure if it's finished, on hiatus or what, because it's been a year since the last chapter was uploaded.

I said i enjoyed cultivator in reverse world cause of the fact that it has a linear-ish plot, so things at least connect, but it's stupid and dumb. I didn't say it was good, I said I enjoyed it, which i do (half cause of discord ads). I didn't have issues following what's going on, maybe cause i can keep track of terminology fine, and I happen to find this isekai but not isekai type stories fun to read.

TL:DR I enjoy cause it has a linear story (better than other manhua at least) that I can follow, and the setting is interesting enough for me to continue. It's not good, but fun to read.

Here's the only other reverse world one i found to be enjoyable (p trashy, but it's something): https://mangadex.org/title/20978/the-world-of-moral-reversal


Here's some more trashy stuff:
Guy gets brought back to isekai world he was a hero in, bad translation improves story: https://mangadex.org/title/23883/jichou-shinai-motoyuusha-no-tsuyokute-tanoshii-new-game
When i was thinking of bad translation, I was reminded of this gem translated in AU english: https://mangadex.org/title/29340/r402
This: https://mangadex.org/title/15946/gun-ota-ga-mahou-sekai-ni-tensei-shitara-gendai-heiki-de-guntai-harem-wo-tsukucchaimashita
Some demons in modern era world stuff: https://mangadex.org/title/809/maji-bura
https://mangadex.org/title/26267/i-can-t-marry-a-hugging-pillow
I read this a long time ago, but found it to be just kinda bad at times: https://mangadex.org/title/11938/mayonaka-no-x-giten
Basically all dungeon master isekais such as this one: https://mangadex.org/title/22699/hisshou-dungeon-unei-houhou
This one is just painful to read sometimes: https://mangadex.org/title/29881/i-m-a-neet-and-my-elder-sister-is-perverted
This one is a fantasy that has stuff that just happens: https://mangadex.org/title/29672/ore-dake-haireru-kakushi-dungeon-kossori-kitaete-sekai-saikyou
I found that the comedy here failed, the isekai version is worth a try at least (related manga): https://mangadex.org/title/28374/ponko-tsundere-na-osananajimi
High schooler is actually diplomat situation, but in a world that makes no sense?: https://mangadex.org/title/18753/kou-1-desu-ga-isekai-de-joushu-hajimemashita
Joke gets boring after 1 chapter or smt: https://mangadex.org/title/37253/mom-please-don-t-come-adventuring-with-me-the-boy-who-was-raised-by-the-ultimate-overprotective-dragon-becomes-an-adventurer-with-his-mother
FRIENDSHIP!!11!1!1!!: https://mangadex.org/title/23571/kimi-wa-008
dunno if this is bad, or good: https://mangadex.org/title/41150/scoop-musou-scoop-hadouhou-dogooo
same case as AHO girl, really depends on your sense of comedy: https://mangadex.org/title/45939/kanojo-mo-kanojo
This exists: https://mangadex.org/title/19530/ureshon
This just wasn't funny like it set out to be: https://mangadex.org/title/32929/yoko-san-sugari-yoru
I just read the title: https://mangadex.org/title/29653/kimi-wo-mawashitai
more bad manua: https://mangadex.org/title/31533/i-am-not-a-goddess

dunno how bad these are, I'm only paying half attention while writing this.

@deedet I just remembered about another "nice" pile of shit, a bottomless pit of unintentional humour
aggravated from the burden of maladjusted social messages.
A pity, because Sahara Mizu can draw beautifully when she wants...
https://mangadex.org/title/33728/okashiratsuki

This one seems "promising" too, I lasted a chapter

Well, you asked for it.

"Bougyaku no Kokekko"
https://mangadex.org/title/31087/bougyaku-no-kokekko

Humans vs giant chickens. Poor anatomical knowledge (severed heads can't talk, you know), awful characters.

@DjAlexDubCheck lol I've seen this one. I cried lol. Was the author trying to make some kind of love comedy?
About okashiratsuki, I don't rly know a lot about those type of manga, but I get what u mean. But at least the author is trying to put some focus on social problems, even if it's a little clumsily done. And a shame the romance part just destroy it all, a bit of romance would be ok but here it shift the focus completely from the social problem to a dumb shojo like slice of life, even more so with the art (which is quite good tbh)
And the second one, about those games with true people lives, I feel like I've seen those so many time. I think the author wanted to start something clean but didn't manage to pull it off. Well, uninteresting


@gonn92 I'm laughing so hard. Is the author a teen in heat. Definitely top tier in my shitty manga list

@DeathDonut I managed to read 3ch. Uninteresting, bad characters writing, those drawing are not that good (note that I just don't want to be too harsh). And it managed to go until vol 5 lol

What's up with nisekoi? Is it rly that bad?
I remember reading it (or watching idk) when I was a little younger, and the beginning seemed OK. Will it just suddenly become messy and bad?

@JJTheWeeb Wait, those are a lot lol.
Let me take some time to at least read the first chapters of each of them

Concerning immortal cultivator in a reverse world, I found the characters ridiculous, with non logical reactions, the drawing are bad, the background messy (Are cultivators common? Are they not?) hateful and stereotyped situations with a '' basic'' manhua mc. Well, u get what i' m saying.

Concerning world of reversal moral, I saw it when it just began. If I remember well, it's written by a hentai artist. And honestly, it's not '' bad'' in the way that the author isn't trying to make something good. It just wanted to make his original doujinshi a manga variation, cuz he knew that it would have a public, and he managed to

@deedet Well, you asked for the worst and trash, and not hidden gems. In the same category there would be...

Rengoku no Karma. (over the top bullying, suicide, then berating person who commited suicide)
https://mangadex.org/title/14787/rengoku-no-karma
Rule: Shoumetsu Kyoushitsu
https://mangadex.org/title/24539/rule-annihilation-classroom
Pumpkin Night (overly dramatic slaughter)
https://mangadex.org/title/28665/pumpkin-night
Kichikujima
https://mangadex.org/title/20176/freak-island

And so on.

For something of a "Trashy B-movie grade" you could try Caterpillar, for example:
https://mangadex.org/title/4654/caterpillar
... OR actually anything by Murata Shinya

@deedet well yea, the moral reversal was there as the only other thing i remember of reverse something isekai type thing, which i find to be a cool topic. no substantial (just some SoL) story happens till the porn version's protag appeared in this version (a guy of course). but yea, i didn't include it cause it was bad (i enjoy it and think that there are no real issues so far), but to help explain why i just enjoy reverse world cultivator whatever, there aren't enough reverse whatever stories that I've read.

Aside: cultivating is a thing people in power to do to get more powerful, normal people don't know of the techniques and are just normal. Is what i understood it as, probably some chinese culture relating to the actual practice of cultivating. And i also don't care for stereotypes and all that, so yea, i guess that helps me not get annoyed at it or smt. I think the character interactions get better once there are more characters (dunno how much you've been reading) cause it actually depicts different personalities/history (which some forget to give its characters) for most important character. The biggest issue is how suddenly it starts, expecting the reader to know about what cultivating is, how clans and all that work, and general culture knowledge (which the chinese market would most likely have). I'm sure my parents know more than I seeing as they watch chinese dramas that involve this subject.

The overall worst manga is likely the one with "I dont need cheat skills to succeed in a new world". Which has the MC get every cheat skill? Like all of them? He says didmantle and he oneshots anything, everything, no matter what they are. The worst recent one I have read is one LHtranslation is translating. I love all things they pick up usually but this Skeleton isekai manga they picked up had the MC be the most literal fucking white knight ever. MC mass murders bandits for rape and theft but lets ANY and I mean ANY female character go no matter what they do, nevermind him being so outproportionately to the point of every combat being 0 stress. MC literally lets a female assasin go after her trying to kill him but he off-screen kills multiple bandits, who were likely jıst thieves driven by poverty, for a fucking entry quest to a guild. MC also no remorse massacares guards and soldiers as well.

I would say ANY manga (mostly isekai) that use Video game mechanic in a world that is not a game
it does remove the fun of video
it does remove the fun of learning something IRL
it does make not sens (i fucking HATE soft magic system) and the author never try to explain how magic work

the fun of video game mechanic are mostly here to overcome a problem, the player do have a limited amount of time (he don't live in the VG word KOF KOF) and interact with a keyboard or a controller
learning IRL is fun not because you can do something but because you did learn it, but even worst it's we are reading a story, i will take a know exemple but imaging my hero academia if deku did have full control over all for one from chapter 1, that would be dumb what is nice is seeing overcome challenge not just wining
(best arc is the training arc where he "lose")
.

And now try to explain how the fuck leveling fucking work and if you can find a explanation tell me how the fuck their world still function some what similarly to our world, no because we already find exploit to farm XP in limited game, now you are trying to tell me nobody in thousand year of civilisation where level are super import did try to find a way to make xp more easy to get (farm of mob like you farm cow for their milk ect ect), or well all the crime and thing that do append because yeah if you can poison someone and become 10x more powerful i am quite sure that gonna change something on how people act and react (because XP is a recourse that can be "steal" when you kill someone), BUUUUUT maybe XP only drop on monster and now you gonna explain what is a monster in your wolrd and what make them different from any other living being, and why they do exist, and why they do give xp ect ect.

but yeah i did ignore the biggest problem, how the fuck xp make your better, if we are talking about a world that is real, how something (we gonna replace xp with a consumable for the example so xp is gonna be milk now) like drinking milk (absorbing xp) make you better are smelting ore, or fighting, did you gain "knowledge" from the world that was stock in milk ?

And yeah a MC learning something to do something complex in 1 page is SoOooooOOOoO interesting to read, special mention to https://mangadex.org/title/17709/kumo-desu-ga-nani-ka where the mc (mcs ? pluriel ?) can learn a 100 thing in a single page and do have what fell like 1000+ skill.

Ps combat where we know the limit of the 2 opponent are SOOOOO over quote i mean imaging be able to think (use your brain OMG so lame) what can come next and how the character are going to act, and technique they can use and how it can help them.
I mean just read Hunter X Hunter the magic system "NEN" is sooooo limiting nothing good can come from it, and it even try to make us think about the true power of some of the cast and how they will use it AGAIN our MC (using our brain is so lame).

Ps fun fact if you make your combat/movement or anything a impressible or imprecise in a actual Video Game you just make a REALLY BAD game (action game)
And if you make your (action game) to easy the player will probably be bored and close it, imaging if in Monster Hunter you did not need to learn how your weapon work and could kill a elder dragon, or just get all the best armor (and gem) from a chest because it sure that making progress in the gameplay but also the power scaling of the game is not what make MH good.
Or dark soul but you don't need to learn the pattern and how to navigate the world.
Or any city builder but you don't need to think about how you gonna remove the bad circulation OF YOUR DAMM CITY.

anyway what make a game good is the progression in general story or knowledge and execution, and that exactly what most story with VG mechanic do remove.
ps 2 also you don't interact with people IRL the same way that you do in a multiplay game ("RPG comics" https://www.lezhin.com/en/comic/rpgcomic is a good read BECAUSE the people act like they are in a game and not IRL).



sorry i probably make no sens but i have a lot of thing to tell and English is not my native language and i did learn it myself.
