Omniscient Reader's Viewpoint, Vol. 1 (Omniscient Reader's Viewpoint, 1)

We follow Kim Dokja who is suddenly in the world of the novel he read: Three Ways to Survive the Apocalypse. It starts off strong as we see from the intro what to expect in later chapters. Dokja comes off as an ordinary office worker with nothing particularly special about him except that he likes to read web novels. There is some background on Dokja and then the conflict comes fairly quickly to tear us away from the mundane life he is used to living. The pacing is really great as there are no boring elements with too much dialogue or useless information. If you like action fantasy with a clever main character, this is a great read. The art is very nice and detailed. The characters are still developing, but they all have their significant traits, especially Dokja who serves as a leader from being the only person who read the novel in its entirety.

I was honestly surprised by the quality of the book, the art, and the story. It is funny but the story is original and unique in a weird way because the whole “life turned into kinda like a videogame” is not original at all, but the way this author goes about it is just spectacular. Truly the best of the best.

I read this webtoon as well as the Korean novel and I have to say I wish I would’ve sooner! The story is absolutely amazing and entertaining, the characters are likable too.The book itself came with no damage and the art is fantastic too. I’m glad I have a physical copy of it now!

Whoa this is the fanciest cover ever!Very fancy, velvety.Love the Manhwa, happy to see it printed and physical! HOlding it in hands feels awesome! Happy to re-read it again

ORV is another in the line of video games inspired leveled up series with a character set out to thrive and survive in a near and/or post apocalyptic world though in this case what changes things up are A) having advanced knowledge of whats to come from reading the decade long running Three Ways to Survive an Apocalypse, and B) having divine beings who serve as viewers and supporters to the cast who can directly affect the way things play out with the abilities they bestow upon them and C), the main character, Dokja Kim, isnt actually the main character or savior in the novel he read, its someone else who has some as of unstated ability to survive. It is very curious indeed.I enjoyed seeing how Dokja Kim, a lowly contract worker trying to get by in life and only having video games and webnovels to give him an escape, handle the situation he is brought up. It is also interesting seeing how the more accomplished people handle the world being turned upside down, how someone who only accels at being a manager, or having some military experience, gets by in this situation is intriguing, and lastly, I like how a kid character is there to both potentially play a big role but also be someone for Dokja Kim to dote on and remain sane in this apocalyptic world. I think he has interesting flashes of being borderline deranged at times at seeing people go at it.Overall this is a great start. The artwork is pretty good, often at times working well to complement the story, and others to convey things that the writing doesn't. I do wish the novel version was out to compare.

AMAZING I LOVE IT I LOVE ORV SO MUCH

I love Omniscient Reader’s Viewpoint. As someone who has recently read the entirety of the manhwa, and is about to read the novel, this series had me up at night. I never really heard of it before so hearing that it had physical copies, I immediately ordered one. The art is beautiful, as it was online, but the translation is a little weird. Since this is the official translation, I thought that they would keep at least the dokkaebi as dokkaebi instead of translating it to English, but they called them goblins. I get that’s the official translation but it sounds so weird. Also, they called him Dokja Kim not Kim Dokja-But other than those interesting choices of translation, I love being able to re-read the first volume of ORV physically! Must read manhwa in my opinion!

I love omniscient readers viewpoint and the second I saw there was a preorder for the English version I instantly raced to this and bought it with no regrets. It came here earlier than expected as I bought it back in July from preorder. My card declined when the preorder ended though and I changed it, I expected it to come a bit later than expected but it came exactly a day later! I’m so happy I have one of the books now thank you 😭🙏❤️‍🩹
