Literally insane to me how small the general webtoon fandom is outside of the webtoon app itself (and maybe reddit??)

I've talked to multiple people irl who LOVE reading webtoon, but the online community is borderline threadbare ! Most people on Tumblr have no IDEA who our blorbos are! I've checked tags for some fairly popular webtoon and it was like visiting that Tatooine town in the Mandalorian where there are 5 citizens total, but only if you also count the Mayor, the sheriff, and the deputy.

Lore Olympus is the most popular webtoon and has under 2,000 fics on AO3. Lookism has roughly 1,000. Unordinary, THEE legacy webtoon, only has 600, and it's been running for almost 7 years now. It has nearly 6M subscribers and still gets 50K+ likes each week. It's not dead by any means.

I guess it doesn't help that each webtoon is its own micro ecosystem and once a webtoon ends, that ecosystem typically fades with it. But webtoons can go on runs longer than most shows on streaming services, and those fandoms burn hot and bright even if only for the first month of a new season drop.

By comparison, webtoon fans are largely casual about their enthusiasm, even if they're highly invested in the story or characters. From my experience, only the most passionate try to connect with other fans online. But when you're passionate about one webtoon, I suppose it's hard to show constant excitement about the 20+ other stories one might keep up with. Still, between the 85 million monthly readers, you'd think each major webtoon would at least have a dedicated fan base (meaning people who regularly post theories, thoughts, fics, and fanart) of mere thousands outside of the app.

One exception for this is that Batman webtoon? It actually trends on Tumblr every now and again. But it doesn't count, because Batman has a built in fandom who'll eat up and yell in the streets about any content where he's a decent dad.

People who read romance webtoon all tend to read the same comics, and actively understand the references to other popular romance comics (Trashta, Team Seojun, SLS), so you'd think there'd be a greater sense of unity. More people actively searching out others to discuss with and posting their thoughts online and not just in that webtoon's comment section.

I mean, C'MON girls!!! Millions of people log into that app like everyday!!! WHERE is the community?? WHERE is the fanart?? WHERE is the fanfic?? WHY does Odd Girl Out only have 7 fanfics?? WHY are there like 2 people on Twitter posting about Weak Hero?? Head in hands fr

Eleceed jumpscare. Kartein x f!Reader.

You frown. A little perturbed, to say the least. When your fiancé had told you about his location, you had expected somewhere more… secluded, or at least, more secure. What you’re seeing is a simple of homestead of a Korean boy, one filled with pets, no less.

It doesn’t help that one of them is staring up at you with intense eyes. You wouldn’t have cared had the not been this… unsightly.

“Do you want something to drink, miss?” The owner of the house has fretted about since your arrival, but you can’t find it in your heart to care about his worrying.

“What is this… mongrel creature?” You point at the scrawny-looking thing that has been following you since your arrival. The way it keeps brushing up against your ankle and staring up at you with unblinking eyes is getting on your nerves.

“Oh, it’s—” Before the boy has the chance to answer, the creature shrieks loudly. You think it’s feline? You can’t tell. It’s more rodent in its appearance than anything else.

“Is it feral?” You take a step back from the creature. “Rabies?”

The gremlin (?) jumps at your accusation, shocked by the words spilling out of your lips. “Rabies?!” It is the voice of your beloved that you hear, but you can’t tell where it’s coming from.

“Hm, right, where’s Kartein?” You turn back to the boy, whose name keeps escaping you.

The boy glances down at the imp (?) nervously before meeting your eyes again. “He’s right here, miss.” He gives you an awkward smile, something you can’t comprehend.

“?” You glance around the living room and see that there is no one here except for you, the boy, and the cats. One of them is definitely oversized and sitting weird from the way he perches on the nearby couch with crossed legs.

You don’t even know cat can sit that way. “Here where?” You ask the boy again and he answers by pointing at the feral critter (?) at your feet.

“Here.”

You stare at it again and see the warmth in its eyes vaguely resembling the affection your fiancé always holds in his gaze. However, to say this ugly cretin is Kartein… “I understand my fiancé is an eccentric sort, but to compare him to this unsightly rat is an insult.”

Without missing a beat, the humongous thing with the vague resemblance to a cat sitting on the couch nearby howls with laughter. Human laughter, that is. That voice is also insanely familiar. As you struggle to pinpoint down who might that be, you fail to notice the flurry of energy exuding from your side. It isn’t until Kartein is up in your face that you pay attention to him.

“Beloved! What do you mean by unsightly rat?!” Kartein fumes, to which you don’t understand why.

“Oh, here you are,” you nod your head at him, “I thought I’ve gotten the address wrong for a moment.”

“Don’t change the subject, how did you not realize it was me?!” Kartein takes hold of your shoulder with an impressive wounded puppy look that makes you almost feel bad about whatever it is that you did to slight him. “Didn’t you say I’m your darling snorkum who you love more than anything in this world?!”

You blink. “I never said that—”

Before you can get another word in, however, Kartein pulls you into a tight hug. “Doesn’t matter now, I’ve missed you so much. I should’ve packed you in a suitcase to bring with me when that Kayden bastard asked for my help.”

“I don’t think that’d work—”

Kartein pulls back to meet your eyes, completely ignoring all of the other people watching in the room. “It’s fine, as long as we’re together, nothing can get in our way.”

“Uh,” you barely have the chance to hug him back, “I’m only here for a visit, you know? It’s not like I can make my residence here with you. I don’t think there’s space…”

“Nonsense,” Kartein bristles, “you just need to become a cat like the rest of us.”

“Us?” You glance down at the other cats down on the floor before the other familiar voice calls out for you.

“Yo,” the gigantic mongrel on the couch waves at you with a smirk. You don’t know cat can smirk.

Your eyes narrow as you once again struggle to recall who that is. “…Is that cat talking?”

“That’s Kayden,” Kartein supplies helpfully.

His answer doesn’t enlighten you enough. “Kayden… the one you went to help?” When Kartein nods, your frown deepens. “I… see. He has changed since we last met. Gained a few… kilograms,” you purse your lips, trying to connect the image of the Awakener you knew to this absolute unit.

“I can do the same thing, too,” Kartein preens with an excited gleam in his eyes. Before you get the chance to ask him to clarify, your beloved vanishes from your eyes, leaving you momentarily disoriented.

“Ta-da!”

Once again, you hear his voice from below, but he’s nowhere around again. “?” You look at the boy once more. “Where did he go?”

“I’m right here!” The hideous creature from before clings at your leg again, making you shudder slightly. “Do you not recognize the visage of your beloved?” But it’s undeniable that his voice is coming from this unpleasant… thing.

“Kar…tein?”

“Yes!” He (?) replies with an unbridled delight in his voice. “Behold, beloved. I’ve transcended the human form.”

“I… see.” You nod, taking in the information in with an unstoppable urge for denial. “This is not permanent, I hope?”

“No, it’s only for convenience during my stay here,” he purrs, wrapping his tiny… unseemly body around you. “Better to say anonymous this way, you see.”

You nod again in acceptance, because you don’t think you have that much reserve of nice things to say inside you. “As long as you’re safe, beloath—beloved.”

“Of course,” Kat-tein perks up at you. “I’d never worry you for no good reason.”

Well, now, that’s a lie. He has vanished on you for months to do… whatever this is. At least, your house has been less noisy without him around. You will count that as a blessing.

“Whatever you say, beloved.”

I can't with Seongha and Inhyuk comforting each other when their kids are being embarrassing. They're like "I feel your pain girl" 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

This Eleceed reread might have been my best decision of this entire month

[heartrenderscove]

Kartein: Teaming up with Kayden? That's ridiculous, such nonsense

Kartein: Who's friends with who? I can't stand to be within 5 feet of Kayden actually

Also Kartein: Pauses in the middle of the fight with a top 10 to check on Kayden, not ONCE, but TWICE. Actively more concerned about Kayden than his own wellbeing

Completely straight behaviour. Totally platonic; nothing to see here. He's totally not concerned for his husband or anything, they totally didn't get married after Astra arc

[stolenwetfloorsign]

Blue toned action webtoons with overpowered protags my beloved.

Mm yes, beat up everyone, be so uncomplicated. I hate tension, I hate real plots.

"Peak shounen" this, "epic battles/romance" that, I cant look for recs like this anymore. My brain and its wants are so specific. It wants things to get OBSESSED with. I dont care if the show is great or if it's barely even that good. If there's something in there that has gotten people obsessed with it, be it the world or the characters (but being attached to the characters is a must for me) I want it. I want it now. My brain won't watch things that are just "really good" rn I need something lovably stupid to happen in the series that makes me laugh and turns my brain into a frothing BLENDER
