The characters aren't bad (even though I'm not much a fan of the main character, Jiwoo), the actions scenes are fun to watch, the art is perhaps better as wallpaper than in actual part of the story (the characters and background don't often match making the viewing a bit disconcerted) and of course the comedic timing is very top notch.
However, the plot and overall worldbuilding is just so bad/underwhelming that it ruins whatever serious immersion you're trying to get at. The main problem with the toon is how painfully unimaginative it is with its premise. The power system is this toon is inconsistent and pretty bland, everyone iwho is "Awakened" is seemingly supposed to have a different power, but four or five characters use the same wind or gravity manipulation.
The dialogue between the characters is great actually, but not when it has to progress the story. It's just sloppy all around, the webtoon is fun and sure, I'll recommend it but after the slow start I thought the story/writing will flesh itself out and...no, I was disappointed, the nadir was in the Academy arc. I'm currently on chapter 118 of the 154 chapters that have been currently released, so I think the story is what it is. Anyway, if you want to look at how a power system or specific powers can be used creatively, look no further than the JoJo series. That series is not as focused on dialogue and character development that Eleceed is trying to do but as a battle comic (manga/manhwa), it's much better.
Characters: 6/10
`-Jisuk is pretty annoying but the rest of the cast is actually not that bad for such a poorly written story. However, again, the potential of the main supporting characters is underwhelming especially with Subin Lee, she has the most unique character design in this series as a main supporting character but she's underutilized.
-But that's just nitpicking so why is the score "only" a 6? Well, the such a clumsy worldbuilding/power system, the focus is unfortunately placed solely on it and leaves the most of the characters curiously undeveloped, like the aforementioned Subin Lee and leads to outlandish logic in character interactions most of the time..
-Kayden (the cat) is great (but again because of the poor writing he's often used as plot armor for the MC just to show off how cool and good looking he is, defying the logic of his character plot) but the main character is a bit irksome to me. The writer wants him to be cute and relatable, but he comes off moe as a soft, pushover who's kindness is well over the top (at one point, in the academy arc, the other characters felt it was "fake", I don't blame them)
Art: 7.5/10
- Everyone already mentions it alreafy but the art is very good. unfortunately, nearly all of the focus is on closeups of all the people's faces so the background can tend to look poorly drawn and/or everyone sort of has the dame body type, so their interaction with the environment can look awkward. Still if your're looking for art full of pretty faces and handsome boys (not my cup of tea but I'm not criticizing it), than this is the webcomic for you
Story: 6.5/10
- This score looks harsher than the actual reality. There is no overarching plot which is perfectly fine, the problem is that the numerous subplots are often...just okay, not memorable outside of the fantastic art.
World building/Power system: 3/10
- My main gripe. It's so bad and unimaginative. How does wind on your feet make you automatically faster? What about non-combat powers? hey're hardly seen or used.
Summary: 6.5/10
- Have fun reading it, you'll laugh alright but definitely not anything you have to clear time for to read.
