Preachy and edgy

What a letdown. After having read The Boxer and Horizon by this author (both amazing), Mosquito Wars is such a disappointment.
It starts good enough - great setting, action, some funny scenes too. But it soon descends into absolute pathetic edginess. Sure, humans are the worst, we are all murderers blablabla, we get it. I‘d expect such a profane mindset from a 14-year-old redditor with depression, but not from a grown-up fiction author with a great track record.

The Boxer and Horizon were so amazing, because they focused on the characters and their inner world and relationships to eachother. Mosquito Wars does that a lot less and in the latter part completely abandons it and just focuses on world-encompassing stuff on a huge scale.
Boooooring.
I read fiction for complex characters and an engaging story, not for a High Schooler‘s opinion on what should happen to the world and/or humanity.

And at the end, the author goes HARD into religion, head-first. We already saw that in The Boxer (where a character has quite literally a „holy“ glow around them; could have only been any less subtle if they wore a „I AM JESUS“ badge). For an atheist like me this is really cringey and off-putting. If at least the author had a unique take on Christianity, but nope. Just a best-of blablabla from the bible.

Not the mention the plot holes at the end of the story:

So the queen mosquito wants to judge humanity and…. erases literally anything on earth, so that only a white field is left…. okay? What did the animals and plants and buildings and other stuff ever do to you? lmao. And the very last chapter is just completely magic, not even trying to explain it scientifically, which the author did in the beginning.

I expected much, much more. It had the potential.

SERIOUSLY GOOD. Why the low ratings????????

Ugh I'm mad at all the people who didn't rate this a 10. How dare you. This series is a masterpiece! It's so good! The art and the translation by WEBTOON are perfection! UGH. TRUST ME, IT'S A 10! JUST READ IT!

The only criticism I'll give, however, is that it does get depressing and sad towards the end. And more than a bit confusing so you may get lost in trying to understand the plot. But it's still amazing ok!

Will update this comment once I'm fully done reading this webtoon, but I had to come and say how much I love it so far.

It's about mosquitos, but it's not the same as Hive where bugs are drawn explicitly. Instead, the mosquitos are depicted as (cute) blobs, so it's like they're not dangerous... but they are. so. deadly...

But the content matter is very strong -- it's dark and gory because deaths do happen (that mosquitos to human lives counter at the end of each episode...). The author is NOT afraid of killing off characters and is so unforgiving about that. The plot moves extremely fast and sometimes I'm confused about what's happening. It goes back and forth from past to present, and plot twists keep happening, but I love how action-packed this series is. It's all done within 49 episodes, which is insane given the amount of things that happen.

If you're into the deeper meaning of things, then this webtoon makes you contemplate things... about life... human superiority (over one another, over animals and insects, etc)... how stupid war is. I don't have any smart words right now to describe what I want to say, but you feel things from reading this story.

Leaving the good things for last though, I LOVE the comedy. The first few eps were so hilarious with the 4th wall breaking. Thanks for including lyrics to Twice's "Like Ooh-Ahh" LOL. I love how such serious/dark subject can be mixed in with comedy -- of course we don't see much of that later on since it gets darker and darker, but I really appreciated that.

P.S. love you Dr. Kim
