let’s talk about The Extra’s Academy Survival Guide for a sec
1. the premise is cool. Dude gets dropped onto a videogame. But the twist— he’s a low-level villain, not the main character. So the premise is off to a decent start. But we all know the premise doesn’t make the webtoon.
2. The art is good. Duh. It’s a webtoon. Ofc the art is good. The characters are iconic and I rarely find myself mistaking a character for another one, or unable to remember who they are and what they’ve done in the past/why they’re important.
3. The language is translated, and a lil cheesy, but good. I rarely find glaring grammatical errors, which is huge. And it gets the point across, if in a slightly unwieldy way.
4. The world FEELS like a videogame. I dunno. Maybe that’s just me. But it feels limited in some areas and expansive in others, just like a videogame with a specific focus. Also, the stat stuff is super cool. I’m sure there’s a whole webtoon genre with that kind of stat stuff, but it’s not one I follow.
5. IT’S SO FREAKING CLEVER OH MY GOSH I’m in my reread before I continue on to the 10+ episodes I haven’t read, and I’m on 14 (oh scud I checked and there are like FIFTY I’m so excited :3), and I CANNOT GET OVER THE WAY THINGS PLAY OUT AND HOW THE MAIN PLOT GETS CHANGED EVERY NOW AND THEN AND JUST EVERYTHING TIES TOGETHER AND ITS SO NEAT AND AHHHH
6. They’re long episodes. We chillin’.
7. I love how the main character doesn’t yet seem to have like a major arc. He’s just an observer trying to make a life for himself. We watch the other characters and get hints of their identities and struggles and it’s awesome.
8. THE CHARACTERS AH LOOK AT YENNEKAR TELL ME SHES NOT A LIL BUNNY RABBIT


AND LORTEL LOOK AT LORTEL LOOK AT HOW SCHEMING AND EVIL SHE IS DHAKXJSNNSBXNSNAJRISJEHDDB
