Overall Rating: 8.5/10

I've read this manhwa over 3 times, maybe more. It's just so addicting. I have gotten use to manhwas with storyline revolving the Murim or something of the sorts.

The Breaker starts of like many other mangas/ manhwas - "A student picked on and the arrival of a new mysterious teacher. Student witnesses teacher dominate a fight with ease and pleads/ blackmails said teacher to train him. The secret martial arts world is looking for the mysterious teacher and his student is now at risk." A cliché in my books but I still love it. The first chapters are a bit slow, but it gives you a good background on Shiwon and his interactions with his entourage. As the story progresses, you start to understand what is going on, who Chunwoo is, and the effect he has on the world due to past actions.

The storyline evolves as the chapters progress and the characters evolve has it goes. The artwork improves with time, so do the fight scenes (the are pretty great).

The end made me sad and was left with huge open doors, but the author had already planned for a sequel (I read it and now am waiting for the final arc season 3 of this series). But its not as bad as it sounds. I do recommend this to friends, and I only hope that there would be an anime based on it.

Do I recommend it:

The Breaker verdankt seiner Größe in meinen Augen vor allem zwei Tatsachen: Dem Zeichenstil und dem exzellenten, weil relativ unverbrauchtem Setting. Bei letzterem mögen mir manche widersprechen, aber für einen Leser japanischer Manga ist ein koreanischer eine interessante Abwechslung, noch dazu wenn er so gut gemacht ist wie hier. Grundsätzlich eine typisch Jugendliche ansprechender Shōnen-Manga mit den Elementen einer Coming-of-Age-Story wird der eigentlich unwillige Protagonist durch Zufall Bestandteil einer im Schatten agierenden Martial-Arts-Welt. Durch den Fokus auf (chinesische?) und koreanische Kampfkunst-Einflüsse wird innovatives geboten. Der wie beschrieben gute Zeichenstil scheint erwachsener als vergleichbare japanische Produkte mit Kulleraugen-Optik.

Dank unverbrauchtem Setting, guter Story und interessanten (wenn auch nicht wirklich innovativen) Figuren fünf Sterne.

This is like GTO but adding a lot more classic fight scenes and even tho Chun-Woo is a bit of a**hole, he really is a badass funny lad that I've ever come across in the manhwa world.



Definitely guys, check this manhwa out for the lols and fight scenes, you're totally missing out!

No me convence del todo. Creo que voy a leer un tomo más a ver si se pone más interesante.

De por sí, no es el tiempo de comic que suelo disfrutar. La historia no me parece mala hasta ahora, un poco sencillita (pero seguro que tiene más para mostrar) pero hay cosas que no me atraen en los mangas o manhwas "adultos" que es sexualizar a la mujer. En fin... Veremos.
