|
|
This is one of the better chinese manhwa (manga) I've read. If you like historical epic with fights this is it (if you watched The 12 kingdoms you know what I mean). This manhwa is based on the Three Kingdoms and the heroes involved, although its slightly different from the original three kingdoms. This is also one of the first manhwa to be adapted to the japanese audience.
The summary from Fifay.net: They scanlate this manga and is up to volume 5. Although its currently volume 19 in Taiwan.
| Quote: |
| The Ravages of Time takes place at the end of Han Dynasty, a period of great political instability in the Middle Kingdom. Warlords fought each other to control the country, and great merchant families were embroiled in the political struggle. Sima Yi is the brilliant and ambitious young master of one such family. He schemes to put his family in power, and employs the services of the fearless warrior Liaoyuan Huo, the head of the "Handicap Warriors". Although they have joined together, they each have their own agendas. RoT is an exciting, action-packed series that gets more interesting with each successive chapter. |
The lineart is one of the best I've seen and consistently so (death notes the other one):

I'm surprised someone actually post here. It was a long time ago when I open this thread.
This link has up to the latest chapter at 167: (chinese only)

One of the best manhwa but a bit too slow. Even up to the current chapter, Cao Cao only started to make his move against Lubu and gang. But with Zhou Yu entering the fray things will finally get interesting. But, at this rate, its gonna be like 400 chapters before the manhwa ends. I like how they make Lubu, Zhang Liao (the fake Lubu earlier) all look so stylish. Lubu actually has some brains, not like how history depicting him to be all brawns only. |
