This is a re-read for me. Parts of this Korean manga (manhwa) are extremely funny. Parts are very violent and action oriented. I was hoping that an anime series would be made. Two OVAs were made which were enjoyable, but didn't capture the humor of the manhwa. I was sorry that the story ended without any bonus material that I could find. The series' final chapter is vague and didn't bring closure to the story for me. There is a short side story (Noblesse: Rai's Adventure) published separately that takes place earlier in the plot's timeline.

I'm glad I went back to this and finished this because that was a WOW for me 👏! likeable characters, who happens to also be hilarious, epic fights, beautiful art, and vampires!!! Checks all the boxes of things that I love in a good story.

One of my comfort manhwas. This is the perfect found family trope, and it was one of the first manhwas I ever read. Rereading it is just as heartbreaking and fulfilling — it warms my heart to see my favorite characters again and revisit my favorite scenes.

The only reason it’s not perfect in my eyes is because of the rushed ending. Otherwise, this is truly one of the best manhwas ever created. I’ll always want to reread this series and watch my boi Rai fall in love with humans, admire Frankenstein’s loyalty to his master, and root for the R5!!! My love for them is so huge and surreal — I can’t believe I’m still so in love with everything about this story. And lowkey, I ship Seira and Shinwoo because what the hell was that plot?! It was so obvious Seira was slowly falling for Shinwoo!!! They should’ve been endgame!! It's gonna be heartbreaking but definitely worth it.

Overall, this is a manhwa about friendship, loyalty, and building a family not bound by blood.

I love this so much!

(I’ve decided to add all the completed manhwas I read on Goodreads since I didn’t do it before.)

Mình sẽ chấm điểm cao hơn ở các phần sau của bộ webtoon này, vì cả nét vẽ và cá tính nhân vật được làm nổi bật
Có rất nhiều phần mình ưa thích. Nhưng có lẽ nổi bật nhất là những đoạn chất chứa nhiều cảm xúc của Raizel, khi Frankenstein tuôn những lời độc địa làm cay cú đối phương, phân đoạn về sự mất mát và trưởng thành của Lazark - Rael, những phần tình cảm của Muzaka và Lord dành cho Raizel.
Mình nghĩ điều khiến webtoon này đáng nhớ nhất với mình chính là tình cảm giữa Raizel và Frankenstein vì mình chỉ bắt đầu thấy truyện hay khi quá khứ giữa hai người hé lộ. Ngoài ra thì mình cũng thấy bất công cho Lazark quá :( mình nghĩ để thêm vài nhân vật tuyến chính đi cùng, rải rác các ep sau thì sẽ làm bộ webtoon này hợp lý hơn.
Nói thẳng thắn thì cái kết làm mình hụt hẫng vì tập cuối và epilogue có cái kết quá ngược nhau. Hai trạng thái đối lập đến cùng lúc làm mình bị quá tải. Mặc dù điều này làm bộ webtoon nhẹ nhàng hơn nhưng mình nghĩ nên có thêm vài chương để độc giả giải phóng cảm xúc dần dần.

What is there to say? I didn’t want this to end. Noblesse is one of those works that many will never actually get to read or know about that that just breaks my heart because it is an amazing series. Some of my favorite characters have come out of this series, the best character development, and plot structure. This series was a journey. We saw art style changes, we connected as a community over since it was published with weekly chapters. Seriously, I can’t praise this enough. The ending was isn’t even an ending in the sense it allows the reads and fans to continue the story as well. I have grown so attached to characters and the story. I don’t even know that to say because I have so much to say. Go read it. I wish they would have more translations of this and physical copies so it could become more mainstream so more can enjoy. 5/5 I think this is my favorite series of all time.

Omgosh,the epilogue ending, they leave ending like cliffhanger,there's a lot of question I wanted to know about Rai's lifespan if they can find cured for him to expand his life force, about m-21 life before being experiment, who seira choose the guy either rael or shinwu?n there's lot more question about noblesse plot story plus i'm happy Rai,muzaka n the noble woman who had crushed on Rai n her comrades still alive from the missile.There's a lot chapter of chapter to read until this month of today =) At least there's epic fighting in there also interesting characters too.Finally they beat Cromwell the 13th elder in the end.

What a ride, all 545 chapters. I usually don't even start super long series, and I didn't used to be a fan of lots of combat in my stories (to be fair I did skim through some of them). But Nobless is such fun that I looked forward to reading it every day. It has a surprising amount of emotion, drama, I shed a tear or two, balanced out with humour. There were some laugh out loud moments, which is quite a feat as I rarely even crack a smile while reading. I liked the character development for everyone but especially that fact that quite a few flawed characters had redemption arcs. The ending was also rather sweet, which was an unexpected bonus.

This is an amazing book about the adventures of Rai the Noblesse who woke up after 820 years of slumber. He went to a school that Frankenstein who is the most powerful human being on earth and is his devoted servent who a blood contract with him has created. That is where he finds the most amazing fun and kind-hearted human friends. He hides the fact that he isn't human and secretly fights to stop enemies from hurting humans, his dear friends, and all his loved ones.

HA SIDO TAN TAN GUAY DIOS LO QUE ME ME PODIDO REIR Y LO QUE HE PODIDO LLORAR CON ESTE MANHWA NO TIENE NOMBRE.

¡¡Ha sido LARGUÍSIMO pero ha valido la pena CADA capítulo!!

A ver es cierto que final ha sido bastante rápido y que el epílogo es algo confuso pero ¡¿me ha gustado?! Y bueno también es verdad que hay algunas cosillas que se dejan un poco en el aire pero... ¡Me da igual! Me lo he pasado GENIAL leyendolo asi que a pesar de no ser perfecto se lleva mis dieces.

The whole thing is amazing. However, the ending does seem a bit rushed and I would like more which ties up loose ends. But the beginning and middle is a fun adventure with great characters and humor.

[Aquila · Rating 5 out of 5]

I absolutely loved this series. The comedy is great and made me laugh so many times. Hopefully Rai can learn how to get to places faster in the future. At some point in the future I am for sure going to reread this.

[Saoirse Elise · Rating 5 out of 5]

This is my first webtoon read and this is indeed amazing. It is packed with action and comedy. I also loved the uniqueness of each characters and their unexpected character developments. Overall, it is a very fun read.

The only thing I am confused is the epilogue.

[Carolina Fernández · Rating 5 out of 5]

Leer 543 capítulos sonó intimidante en su momento, pero me gustó mucho, la evolución del dibujo, como cada personaje ganó poco a poco un lugar en la historia y como se formaron alianzas y familias. Ahora, el epílogo... I need answers.

[Kia · Rating 5 out of 5]

Great comic but the ending and prologue left me unsatisfied. Hoping the author comes back and ties up the loose ends.

[Emmanuel · Rating 3 out of 5]

A potential setting with such likable characters with a terrible anticlimactic ending...

[prisha · Rating 5 out of 5]

One of my favorite works in fiction. I adore the characters, I love the plot, and it's hilarious.
