This is actually a really good webcomic! Its main theme is actually friendship for once, so we get to see many heartwearming, sad, funny, and etc moments as we watch Nari befriend and grow closer with the pretty girls. Everyone's personalities are developed nicely and feel real, too! Even the background characters and mean antagonists are designed to be like real people, walking around with complex and not-entirely-bad personalities. The art is pretty nice, too! Awkward at first, yes, but it DOES improve later on - and it does eventually become good, to where it gives justice to Yuna, Seongji, and Mirae's "beauty," too. Speaking... of their beauty, it's really great that their appearances are not the only things established about them at all. In fact, the beauty honestly just becomes a side trait that isn't excessively and senselessly emphasized, especially later on. We progressively get to know them as genuine girls with their own personalities, backstories, and everything, instead of only ever seeing them as simple swans that don't have much personality aside from brattiness or whatever.

Even after the main plot is done with, the new plots and stories that follow are always interesting enough to still read with enjoyment. Which is- obviously hard to do as a writer. The fact that they deal much more heavily with friendship instead of cliche romance, too, is great - especially since Odd Girl Out deals with everything in a realistic but dramatic light instead of a glorified, overly sappy, cliche one. This is definitely a webtoon I would recommend to anyone who wants to try out a new webtoon if they like slice-of-life and drama-full webtoons.

No spoilers in this review. Odd girl out is a light read. You don't need to dig deep into it, just enjoy whatever is being thrown at you. The author will make you feel a rollercoaster of emotions as you get to know all the characters and choose your favorite.

Story: It's a good story, just average. It's your typical girl friend group type of story where they go to school, fight, make up. Even so, I really enjoyed it. The author does a good job in balancing the story out by making sure it's not redundant. Different types of characters, cliches, and plots are... reused, but it's shown in their own way where it doesn't get old. It's really just a cute story about girls going to school. What can you say?

Art: Art is similar to all the other Webtoons. Colored and easy to read.

Character: This is what hooks you in. The development of each character is the charm of this manhwa. Each character has their own backstory that's scattered, and focused on throughout the story. It's well laid out, and you'll definitely find the ones you hate and the ones you love.

Enjoyment/Overall: I will recommend this Manhwa for those who like slice of life. It's a day-to-day story with our main character with flashbacks for developments. Just enjoy the cuteness of our beloved heroines that are too good for us.

okay so I only came here to see the others opinions of this cause it is really hurting my heart since I read this

am I the only bothered with the second season because the other girls just suddenly became outsiders??????? like all the attention was only for the new boys and no problem, the two are great, but the thing that most made me happy in this manga was the friendship between the girls and suddenly everything just was discarded
my impression are that the girls became more silly??? i don't know how to say this :(((

maybe I just liked so much the girls just being... happy without the guys

remember that i like the manhwa!! but i don't feel motivated to continue reading, i'm not throwing hate or something

if you agree or disagree i'd like to see your opinion :DD
