Reviews
- Tomb Raider King has always been enjoyable, from its characters and the comedy to some of the action scenes in this manga. The art is consistently nice to look at as well.
However, while it’s enjoyable, it does have it’s flaws. Constant complaints about the author abandoning powers after just recently introducing them, repetitive villains that keep coming back and sometimes a lack of drive.
Regardless, it’s great to see characters interact with their companions and seeing some parts of history being explained and imagined in the way of the relic.
Overall, the focus was never the story or super in-depth characters, but more of the experience of seeing how someone can use mythology to make creative powers and to root for our protagonist to gain more powers.
Enjoyable, but has its boring moments. Reviewer’s Rating: 6

Good story, quality art and drawing, good characters and a very good use of everything that has to do with mythology and religion.
The story is very interesting, it has more than 300 chapters (up to the date of this review) and the action and history are not lacking.This manhwa is as good as his novel and I can only say that the grade it has in MAL is not deserved.
If you don’t believe me don’t judge by this review or the others, go and read only 10 chapters and then decide whether to continue reading it or not.

Sad attempt at making a badass character. Making your character a BAD guy and an ASS doesn’t make him badass. That just makes him annoying. The MC is rude and mean to people for no reason and treats people that were his friends in his recent life like shit. I understand that he is a bit blinded for revenge but dude only like 3 people made your life shit don’t go around killing and beating up people because now you’re strong. The MC also doesn’t have a clear goal, he wants relics and a bit of revenge but nothing is clear and it takes a huge amount of chapters before we can somehow guess what he wants to do.
The only thing that keeps me going is the fact that the relics and their powers are linked to real life legends. That makes it somehow interesting even though the whole thing is a ripoff of Solo Leveling.
