Year hiatuses are a thing in Korea, but haven’t seen someone just completely ghost his fan base as the author has done.

Hope we get an update soon but after Jan I’m losing hope and putting the breaker in the back of my mind because it’s over!

Thinking about picking up a physical edition of New Waves. I have the omnibus set of the OG series Ive read the fanlation of new waves (Ateam drama and all) shopping around there doesn't seem to be a collection and the prices on individual volumes are a little rich for my blood multiplied out to the whole set. Is there a better place?

This season of The Breaker has completely broken what was once a promising story. I'm putting this one down until it's complete and maybe then I'll read it all. However I don't think thats going to happen. I think the Author has no idea how to progress his story and its showing with the incessant recycling of story arcs.

TL:DR Season 3 is dumb regressive and completely pointless. The MC

Season 1 we got to see the conundrom that 9AD left for Lee Shi-Woon with the Black Heaven origin. Built up through sheer fuckery from 9AD and friends. With an unwavering spirit and heart ready to die before the thought of giving up ever occurs. We see our protagonist navigate a world is is thrusted into by societies most wanted. A baby dragon. Watching our protagnist defeat his Bully in Ch 40 was one of the most iconic scenes from the breaker. Lee Shi Woon was no longer one to fuck with. Not only did he Break his bully but he also broke past everyone who is a trained martial artist from birth. Only being stopped by none other than Kang Song. Conclusively 9AD sacrifices his relationship with his pupil by severing his KI center and leaving him an exit from this world of endless revenge. Our set ups were Kaiser, Lady of the Sun-Woon Clan, 9AD, and the greatest techniques of all The Black Heaven and Earth Ki circulation and techniques as well as his speedy recovery. Nestled in a body that ingested the medicine the nurse gave him. We had a hurdle of fixing our ki center but we knew it was only a matter of time.

Season 2 New Waves. Starts off slow again with Shiwoo waking up from what seems like a dream unable to practice martial arts he gets involved with the sunwoon clan that he was presented with last season. We slowly build back up learning the fundamentals of fighting and beating murimins with no Ki Center. After getting involved with hard drugs and lucking out with his charm and unrelenting spirit shi woon is able to bring people together on a greater scale than he did with 9AD. Shiwoon is now a little less green and has fought many people now. From the Arc of the Suck School attack we got to see a glimps of Shi Woon controlling or being some what conscious of what he was doing under the Black Heaven origin. THIS is where the story has an opportunity to be great.

Season 2 New Waves Escape Hawaii

Shi Woo has access to powers only 2 other characters in the story. Black Heaven Origin as well as Ki Circulation of the Black Heaven and Earth school. After waking up in the hopistal on the island Shi Woon's resolve has reached a new peak. No Longer do we see the small boy that was bullied in HS. Shi Woon's ascension to becoming a real Leader is here. After the death of his subordinate someone who originally did not even like him sacrificed himself to protect him not once but twice. Shi Woon now understand the gravitas thats placed on his shoulders. From here on we see a new protagonist one that you do not fuck with. Shi Woon escapes that island and easily uses his fight iq as well as techniques to deal with anyone until one of the top 10 murimins master appear. Through ghost doctor we learn that 9AD experiment on Shi woon had much bigger ramifications. He has unnatrual healing abilities unlocked by his vast ki reserves from the medicine that nurse fed him here we see Lee Shi Woon win against an opponent who had decades of experience over him. Our main character is now set. Possessing two abilities that are myth in a world of myth. He then gets beat once more overcoming his opponent and exposing 9AD to their plans and 9AD accidently exposes his creation to Kaiser. With the second death he is responsible for Elder Kwon sacrifices himself to give ShiWoon freedom from the shackles of his old master. The Permission to learn his craft to surpass even 9AD himself. As we end the promising season with a out stretched hand from someone who could evolve our main character from a god amongst men to God amongst gods.

The Breaker the Break. We wait ten years while the author fucks around on different projects while leaving his magnum opus on the back burner 10 years a decade people died not having seen the travesty that this has become and maybe for the better. /s

After 10 years of waiting we get Season 3 and boy did they fuck this one up. It feels like the author himself had no idea where to take the story. All of S1 is fucking useless. Shi woon already has 2 special powers that make him unique he doesn't need another mystery to explore when we haven't even made a dent in any of the other two mysteries. Shi Woon didnt need to have a fall out with the Old man he should have just taken him up on his offer and grown to become a proper martial artist. While also hunting 9AD and Kaiser. We should have learnt about Kaiser similarly to time wise when we did in Trinity but under better conditions. We don't need fake 9ads we needed Shi Woon to challenge them with ease finally after his training arc and only rely on BO when he needed to. Not right off the bat. If this technique is supposed to be so deadly then let him win with it. Instead we just get a repeat of the s2 ending 9AD beats him up and he stumbles upon a new random power up that he cant actually use until we wait another 10 years. Season 3 is when we should be getting our pay offs. Not more set ups. Not more near losses. We don't need more hey im actually going to be op soon just wait.

I think the story should have played out that Shi Woon had his Ryu training arc from the get go. Attacked by Kaisers fake dragons he takes them out where as Ryu si badly hurt and we see Shi Woon use BHO rampage take them out. Then we can learn from OG about Kaiser and how he is behind 9AD and what their goals are. 9AD motivations is to get revenge for his master. Shi Woon should have shown him that we cannot continue the cycle of revenge eye for and eye. That was the motif in the first season Shi Woon was ready to forgive almost like Korean Jesus. Then we could have held a tournament for the title of the dragons. We could have introduced new characters from other clans as well as Hyuk So-Chun where they finally face off for real for the title of the 9AD. As they clash the tournament is reveled to be a bait to lure in Kaiser and his men. 9AD appearing and Lee ShiWoon finally confronting his old master. Now we can finally have out losses. After a valiant effort his master overpowering him Lee Shi Woon lays defeated resolved to die. He lost finally end me. Instead 9AD reminds him of the time he was forced to be mercifully to people that hurt Shi Woon and tells him how proud he is of how strong he got. How much he loved him and how to stop Kasier. 9AD sacrfices himself by forgiving hte elders and unleashes a new Dragon King onto the murim. Within that forgiveness Shi Woo finds the key to unlocking the Black Heaven Origin. As Shi Woo confronts Kaiser we can have the Lady of the Sun Woon Clan betray him for her love for Shi Woo.

Cliche whatever as you can tell i clearly am no writer. It just sucks that I've spent years trying to enjoy a story that has real promise but has not delivered at all. I'm finally going to put this one down the story just seems like its going to need another 10 years to unfuck.

Excuse the long ass rant.

I know Break is in the series name but I am so disappointed after seeing the series is on another break.

I used to read S1 / S2 way too long ago and got super annoyed when the author decided to take a break away to write other stuff because they are worry they will only be writing about TheBreaker if they continuing the series.

Fast forward 10 year later, I just realised there is a S3 and got super pumped. Re-readed S1/S2 cos I forget most of the stuff and continue reading S3 and avoiding any spoilers by not reading the comments session.

And the break notice after S3 #100 break my hearts again, man I am tired of waiting and reading this shit again when the series resumes in another year or 10.

Sorry for the rant and thanks if you make it so far

Just wanted to make everyone aware. Did a quick search on the new waves tag and saw that it was posted that they're officially going to publish New Waves about a month ago, but didn't see anyone post that it's available for pre orders!

Personally, I'm excited to finally be able to own the official release in a language I'm able to read (English). While the first Breaker is my favorite portion of the series, I've re-read New Waves at least three times, and each time I've been able to further appreciate how good New Waves actually is. I'm happy I'll have the ability to just read the physical copy whenever I want, or recommend it.

Now can we please get an anime release for the series! There have been quite a few manhwa adapted into anime over the last couple years, and I think The Breaker is one of the most deserving arts out there!

I was looking for updates on TB EF and when it would return and saw the last thread, started reader absolute regresser and it was really enjoyable and has me wanting to get back into manhua. I’ve read most of the good ones like solo levelling, TBAE, damn reincarnation, sword masters youngest son, Murim login. I’m looking for any good recommendations especially any similar to absolute regresser or the breaker please and thank you

While we wait for the author to get his head out of his ass, let us appreciate the artist and his amazing quality art work. Absolute regression has been pretty good and a good distraction while we wait 7 years for S3 part 2 to return 🫡🙏🏻

I mean, he can do whatever the fuck he wants with his work, however, he should at least have the decency to give us a shred of news regarding the Manhwa, because it's been more than 10 years that people keep supporting him especially for The Breaker, it would be at the very least the least to keep us updated, whether the news is good or not.

His way of communicating is outrageous, you can't tell a fucking thing about what he's thinking or what the fuck he's trying to do with Eternal Force, and now the only artist on The Breaker (or the main artist) has started a new job that, seeing how it's going, will take a lot of time away from him to work on other full-bodied projects.

This author really pisses me off, and it's not the fact that he's not working on The Breaker that's the real problem (although it still irritates me terribly), but the way he does things that pisses me off. And it's not even the first time he's done something like this-seriously, this piece of shit doesn't love us.

If we don't get any information at the end of the year, then for me it means the series is dead (we should also discuss the shameful way he killed the hype of one of the best Manhwa in history.... But I'll save that for another day)

Just read The Breaker, New Waves, and the 100 chapters of Eternal Force only to find out it's on an indefinite hiatus? Is there a way to contact Geukjin Jeon? Can we create a GoFund me or something for him to finish his next 200 or so chapters he originally had planned? If I had a way to contact him I'd send him $1000 for thanks to what he's put out thus far! This needs an anime adaptation honestly

Does anyone knows how the autor and the drawer are doing currently? are they working on something else (again), or at least they have some form of contact like Togashi's Twitter

Hey all,

Just wanted to share an update on the English translation of the breaker

https://www.ablaze.net/products?p=G9781684973934

the immortal sect healing technique and their ability to shoot Ki/Qi out of their body are immortal cultivation abilities that you can find in any xianxia novel. Hells, the stone of stigmata that the immortal sect leader used to train are just straight-up spirit stones from xianxia

so, is the series going "THERE IS AN SPIRITUAL REALM ABOVE US WHERE TRUE IMMORTAL PRACTITIONERS RESIDE" or the immortal sect would be the end of the 'supernatural'?

View Poll

So really are all the series connected? Or just the same world or smth but different MC and all and do I really have to read all of them?

Jk guys, just bringing a little nostalgia to your day 😉

Hello guys and girls! i was wondering if anyone would be able to help me getting some copies of the physical books! I would really love to get my hands on some but i seem to be unable to find the right store.

I've read the breaker but 1.5 decades ago I read a variation of it where MC was much more aggressive and rather than getting bullied at his highschool he was the strongest there. Chun-woo comes by and teaches him one thing and he practiced it the entire time. Ends up at a martial art school where people take in new techniques and he just in his boiler room dorm filtering chi through a coffee filter.

Now I haven't read the breaker with the timid kid in 5 years. BUT THERE DEFINITELY IS A VARIATION OF IT WITH AGGRESSIVE MC. Can anyone help me find the name? I am not crazy.

I get it took forever for the series to comeback but the Korean version stopped in March and English translations stopped in June with the webtoon site marking it as coming back.

Most manhwas season breaks usually last anywhere from 3 months to a year's time and with the artist having an active series which not sure it will have a season break too but think it's way to early to start panicking it won't comeback.

What are the most powerful martial arts in the Breaker?

Hello, everyone! I hope this finds you well. I read The Breaker a long time ago, and when I caught up just before chapter 100 of NW, I got tired of waiting and dropped exactly at chapter 100... My problem is, I started reading from the first chapter of volume 11 (NW), but I can't understand what's happening... Can someone please summarise up until that point? Thanks in advance, y'all have great taste, if you read a manhwa like The Breaker 😁👍🏻

How are we looking guys? Any news on when we can expect chapter 101?

Im Irritated. But not with the Author this time (even if this guy keeps fucking with us), but with the artist.

The problem I have with the artist is that during the publication of The Breaker and New Waves, he often took 2/3-week breaks because he was too tired. And now he's starting a new project that could potentially last 4 years (the chapters of the Absolute Regression novel are 475…).

This not only worries me but also pisses me off because I know for certain that the story will have several breaks. If they couldn't manage Eternal Force and Merciless (the author's new work that isn't even finished), how does the artist think he can handle three works simultaneously?

I've come to the conclusion that both the artist and the author are simply screwing with us, and if they don't intend to finish The Breaker, they should just say so because there are thousands of old and new fans who have been waiting for months.

Honestly, after the first 30/40 disappointing chapters of The Breaker: Eternal Force, where fans still supported them despite everything (I remember there were real wars here on the subreddit), we deserve better.

I've realized that the two probably don't even know what kind of gem they have with The Breaker, given how they've treated the series over the years (horribly). Seriously, is there no way to buy all of The Breaker works? Because we are witnessing one of the biggest wastes of potential in the history of Asian comics.

With this behavior, they are literally killing the community (which was already on its last legs after the long, senseless hiatus following New Waves).

This rant is obviously not just due to the new work, but to a series of situations that are making me lose my patience because I don't intend to wait a lifetime to read new chapters.

People keep shitting on the author I have to clarify for you all that the this series has nothing to do with the author it's just the same artist its a completely different thing

I‘m tired of waiting for an announcement for the end of this “eternal hiatus” 😭 Twitter: https://x.com/areilynn/status/1816267439325286706?s=61

Can anyone explain this to me as I don't quite understand it?
