0
Girls of the Wild's, or Girl the Wild's, is a korean webcomic produced and released for free by Naver. It follows the life of Song Jae Gu, a freshman high schooler, who struggles to support himself and his young twin brothers. After the death of their father the mother left them alone forcing Jae Gu to mature fast so he could care for his remaining family. He decides to attend a high-school close to his home so he can have time for work and family, not knowing it was a prestigious all female school oriented towards fighting sports. It's a story about his growth as a man as he deals with his past and present problems.

If you don't, just do what you normally do and you should be able to find it in english.
I wasn't sure if I should tag the thread as Manga, Manhwa or webcomics, if anyone knows which one is the correct one tell me so I can fix it. It will be much appreciated.
I couldn't find a thread about it so I started this one. If there is one already in existence please feel free to report this one.
Now for my thoughts on it. I found out about it yesterday and read it all last night. The art style is what impressed me the most. I really liked it to the point it's probably one of my favorites already. As far as plot goes it's rather lacking. Initially it reads well, but it starts spinning its wheels after the first 20 chapters or so. I find the comedy parts highly entertaining while the serious parts are very poor. The author uses the same tricks way too often. At first they are captivating but the second time on they get boring.
I don't know much about the author or the artist. I couldn't find much about them. I saw that Naver Comics let's amateurs write their own comics if they are high enough in some kind of rankings they have, so maybe the poor plot is due to that.
All in all I'd say it's worth a read for the art alone. The first third of the story is focused on character development and introducing the dynamic of their relationships, which to me was done very well. The second and last third it starts becoming closer to your typical fight oriented shounen manga which was rather disappointing to me. The character introductions are interesting and a nice narrative tool and their placement are well put. The actual plot is not that great but it balances out in the end.
I'll be following this from now on.

[color=red]1 fact. ALL The girls on that school are really horny for MC, only few ones that made "progress" lol. Interesting read. The art is pretty much captivating.
Yeap, apparently if you go to an all-girl high-school the first male to attend your school is instant Brad Pitt. As I said the plot is thin, the comedy parts are good and the art is terrific. My favorite character by far is Choi Dal Dal. I'm actually looking forward to Sunday so I can read the next chapter. It has been a while since I felt that with a manga.

Been reading it for a while, never noticed this thread. It's a really good read, but the main character may get on your nerves after a while.
