Its not done yet. I've read until ch. 827 and its still somewhere in the middle of School of the Afterlife arc. I've found advance chapters in another site that's until ch. 850ish but can't access it.
Since this may be the only thread/community of people I know who enjoy horror, anyone watched "Kingdom" the korean zombie Netflix mini-series? Just binged it, thought it was incredible. Never thought you could mix a zombie theme with period drama. Set design and cinematography is superb. And Season 2 is out in March 2020! Along with "Train to Busan" (2016), I think it's a clear signal to Hollywood that you don't need to rely on expensive CGI/makeup/special effects on zombies just to tell a story. @Wujigege And yea it's still got the recently popular Korean themes of anti-establishment, corruption, class warfare stuff, probably a reflection of the current times. But it works.
Honestly, I'm on chapter 500, but nothing and I mean nothing has been scary about this webnovel. Yet, I see comments talking about how scary it is and I'm just over here thinking in my head wtf It is an enjoyable read, yes. But, seriously? They don't even build up the horror, it's just there.
Well, try reading it alone in the dark and at midnight unless you have a strong mind then it will really be not scary enough.
i literally am on break and i'm only up at midnight when I read lmao, but okay. And it's not that I have a strong mind. Other than the fact that I read horror stories and watch horror movies all the time, doesn't help in making something less scary. This webnovel just literally has no elements that are scary
tbh, i wouldn't count this as a horror story the horror part in this story is like a kids book where they talk about oni's and lessons lol
It is a Horror story since the characters in the story are living in one. hor·ror /ˈhôrər/ Learn to pronounce noun noun: horror an intense feeling of fear, shock, or disgust
Why are you even bothering to respond? He's never posted on this thread before, or reviewed the novel. He just made a trollish comment, without adding any new information, to bluster and/or rile you up. Would someone actually read 500 chapters of a horror novel that he didn't like, just to tell you that he doesn't like it or find it scary? Everyone's interests vary, it's fine even if he really doesn't like it.
Well, I didn't find this story scary ether and I did read it alone in dark... Anyway, am I the only one who finds current arc to be really slow?
Yea it's slow. Haven't gone past Chapter 800. You guys have way too much time on your hands if you're continually reading novels you're not interested in That would be like a BL-fan reading a yaoi-tagged novel for hundreds of chapters, and then complaining "where's the yaoi?".
I think this arc will be officially the longest arc for one scenario, it is nearing its 100 chapters mark and it is still not finished.
I said it wasn't scary for me, not that it was bad. Never read yaoi novels and never plan to. I agree with you that this is longest arc so far.
You obviously didn't bother to read what I said It is an enjoyable read, yes. But, seriously? I said it was a good webnovel, I just said it wasn't scary. That's a big fucking difference between saying I didn't like it I don't know why you like putting words in peoples mouth, whose the real troll, lmao. I'm at the end of the underground morgue, if you wanted to know and I only came on here to find out more about his parents and if he found them yet, which he hasn't, so I asked a different question
Yes, I did note that you mentioned it's an enjoyable read. So I'm not sure what the point of your initial post is. Or your subsequent responses to @perspherspley. Other than to repeatedly tell people you didn't find it scary. So you weren't asking a question. Just a complaint (i.e. you didn't like that you didn't find it scary). A trolling comment is one which is purposely controversial to get a rise out of others. In this instance, you entered a spoiler thread for a novel, to complain it wasn't scary (which is fine, that's your opinion), and @perspherspley got provoked enough to respond. And so my response to @perspherspley (not you), was that it's perfectly ok that you didn't like it. And that @perspherspley didn't have to try and convince you that it's scary (reading it at night, etc). I didn't take offense to your complaints, so why are you getting riled up now If you're concerned about retorts, maybe don't go to places looking for them? Basic netiquette no? Otherwise, grow some thicker skin. Same as above. Same as above.
You think me saying it's not scary and I don't understand why people find it scary was me complaining about the story? You need to reread my comments again and slowly this time. @kkgoh So you weren't asking a question. Just a complaint (i.e. you didn't like that you didn't find it scary). It's literally just me saying it's not scary and it's a fun read. I just couldn't see what parts of the story were so horrifying, that it gave people goosebumps. In no way did I complain about the actual story and why it wasn't scary/horrifying Also, I got riled up, because you called me a troll and put words in my mouth saying I wrote that I didn't like the webnovel and that I possibly never even read it. The only thing you got right in that sentence was that I didn't find it scary. @kkgoh Would someone actually read 500 chapters of a horror novel that he didn't like, just to tell you that he doesn't like it or find it scary? Everyone's interests vary, it's fine even if he really doesn't like it. Also, my question was to ask why someone would consider this webnovel horrifying/scary (if there was someone like that in this forum, which there was), which I would not consider a troll question. And, as you can see. My question was finished being answered and then you randomly decided to comment that I was a troll. Can you now understand why I was riled up and frustrated at you, even if the reply wasn't directed towards me and towards @perspherspley Spoiler Example of me if I complained about their being no horror: The horror aspect of this webnovel is so shit that it's a the level of a kids book Spoiler Example of me comparing the horror aspect to the level it's at for me: tbh, i wouldn't count this as a horror story the horror part in this story is like a kids book where they talk about oni's and lessons lol I like how you read that some other guy also didn't find it scary and you automatically thought he was reading something he wasn't interested in.
