Webtoons Deserving of Anime Adaptation
There are a lot of good webtoons that are worthy to be animated. Webtoons (Korean: 웹툰) are a type of digital comic that originated in South Korea usually meant to be read on computers and smartphones.
While webtoons were mostly unknown outside of Korea during their inception, there has been a surge in popularity internationally thanks in great part to the rise in popularity of manhwa and the fact that most manhwa are released as webtoons. In the country, as digital manhwas have emerged as a popular medium, print publication of manhwa has decreased. The amount of material published in webtoon form has now reached an equal amount as that published offline. Almost of the webtoons came from web novels which indicates that it is similar to the practice of manga adaptations of light novels in Japan.
We have seen a lot of animes nowadays that were popular on webtoons to earn the right for them to be animated: Noblesse, The God of Highschool, Tower of God etc. Some anime adaptations are better than the webtoon and some webtoons are better than the adaptation. If you are into reading different kinds of good webtoons then check these following examples and let us see if you have the same opinion to make it have an

KILLING STALKING
- Well, if you are into a psychological horror kind of webtoons then ‘Killing Stalking’ may be just right for you. Nowadays, I doubt if there is still a webtoon reader who does not know Oh Sangwoo. This webtoon may be too gore for some but it climbed up the ranks of most viewed manhwa when it was released. There are people who are excited to see its anime adaptation and wonder if they would still feel the same as when they were reading the manhwa.

It updates every Friday and, while the series is still ongoing in the Korean version, it is on hiatus in the English version. The original Korean Webtoon premiered on Naver. Other than Solo Leveling, ‘The Gamer’ is also one of the most anticipated webtoon to have an anime adaptation in this genre.

It is currently being published as a featured series and is the subject this wiki is documenting information on.

However, John has a dark secret that nobody knows about, and his life at Wellston goes downhill very quickly.
GENSHIN IMPACT WEBTOON
- Out of all these webtoons, this may be kinda different as it is from an online RNG game. Genshin Impact is well-known as a game who is currently dominating the online world right now. Not all of the players of this game knows that it has an official webtoon. We can see how interesting the storyline of Genshin is from the game but reading its webtoon is also another thing.
- Synopsis: Teyvat is a world blessed by the 7 Elemental Archons. Though the calamity the world suffered has ceased, and the lands have slowly healed, peace has yet to be restored to Mondstadt, the city of wind.
