Not a Cat Person, but I'm Obsessed with... "ELECEED" (Webtoon)

A couple of weeks ago, I got hooked on another Webtoon. I've been eyeing this Webtoon since around 2020, but there weren't a lot of chapters available at that time, so I decided against it. Now, there are more than 300 free chapters available to read on Webtoon. Because of that, I decided to give it a shot!

The Webtoon I'm talking about it called ELECEED.

In the story, there's a high school student named Jiwoo. He's a kind-hearted young man who loves cats and has a secret he has to keep.

He possesses lightning-quick reflexes, but instead of being proud about it, it made him more scared and wary. He thought that when people discovered this secret, people around him would look at him differently. His mom also worries for him, so they tend to transfer from one place to another, making Jiwoo further away from making friends.

He didn't feel that lonely, though, because he found solace in cats. When he was young, he was comforted by a cat, and since then, he has been taking care of stray cats, regardless of where they live.

One day, the stray cats he's been helping guided him to a cute, chubby cat that was covered in blood. However, he's no ordinary cat.

That cat turned out to be "the" Kayden. He's an awakened, and among the strongest at that. He introduced Jiwoo to the world beyond the regular humans... a world where Jiwoo truly belongs.

Together as a master and an apprentice, they're now fighting against the forces of evil that have begun to take over the normal world, along with some friends and fellow awakened beings they met along the way.

There are many amusing characters in this Webtoon, but what I love the most is the character development. I'm a sucker for character development, and this Webtoon is feeding me a bunch.

The majority of the scenes are exciting and action-packed, but there are also serious moments and funny times. The comedy side of this Webtoon is also really effective, especially when it involves the more serious characters.

Despite that, I also love all the wholesome moments the main character spends with his friends and his cats. I love the small and mundane episodes that they show from time to time. It's like a breath of fresh air.

As I've mentioned, there are now more than 300 chapters available, and it's still ongoing. I don't think it's nearing its climax, either... but it's building up! :) That's why I can't wait to read the upcoming chapters.

Well, I'd let it marinate for now and maybe continue reading it or even reread it in a few months. I mean, I don't mind reliving the hype as I reread the story from the beginning. I'll surely enjoy it!

And oh, an animated version is scheduled to air sometime next year. There's no specific date of release yet, but if you're interested, you can keep track of its MAL Page.

I'm personally curious about the anime version, so I'm looking forward to watching it when it becomes available next year. For now, I'll be patiently waiting for chapters to pile up before I binge-read again.

I'll end this post here. I hope you give this a shot if you haven't already. Thanks for reading, and see you around! Have a good one! (^^,)/
