Top Manhwa Where MC Shatters the Power System: Unleashed Chaos!

by

Summary

  • Overpowered protagonists break power scales in manhwa.
  • Main characters create havoc and a hierarchy shift.
  • Incredible battles spice up storytelling for fans.

Comics featuring exceptionally powerful characters frequently employ themes such as exceeding established power levels or shattering the balance of power, which in turn disrupts the order among superpowered beings, resulting in continuous conflicts and events. However, this also results in breathtaking fight sequences that add excitement to the narrative, which is beneficial for those who appreciate intense battle scenes.

This collection features manhwa where the primary character overthrows the power structure, surpassing human-defined limitations for strength, and ascending to the pinnacle as the strongest mortals.

In this version, I used “overthrows” instead of “breaks,” “surpassing” in place of “transcending,” and “ascending” instead of “climbing.” The overall meaning remains the same but with a more natural and easy-to-read flow.

6. The Knight King Who Returned With A God

There Is No Mortal Or Demon Above Him In Terms Of Power — Only The Gods

  • Genres: Dark Fantasy, Action, Comedy, Reverse Isekai, Drama
  • Author: Salam Sallyeo
  • Artist: Jeoncheon Huma Geomsa

In this particular isekai manhwa, the main characters are portrayed in such a way that they seem more like villains due to their brokenness and harsh attitudes. However, it’s revealed later that Leon has been chosen by the gods as the savior of humanity, regardless of his ruthless, cruel, or prejudiced nature.

This character’s judgement appears almost always accurate, and he possesses an uncanny ability to identify individuals disguised as heretics, wrongdoers, or practitioners of demonic rituals. However, what truly sets this protagonist apart is that upon his arrival on Earth, the entire Awakener (Superhuman) community in Korea experiences a dramatic shift. Until then, they had maintained a well-balanced power structure, with ‘S’ being the highest rank; however, Leon’s presence disrupts the equilibrium completely, leaving them all feeling inferior compared to him.

5. Villain To Kill

From S-Rank Hero To Disaster Class Villain And Beyond

  • Genre: Dystopian, Action, Martial Arts, Urban Fantasy
  • Author: Fupin
  • Artist: Eunji

In the world of this action comic, Cassian Lee, our protagonist, held the prestigious S Rank + title among Psykers (heroes), a distinction not often given by the association. This made him a potential disruptor to the power structure, and he was falsely accused of murdering another influential hero and friend. As an assassination team moved in to eliminate him, even as his life hung in the balance, Cassian vowed revenge.

Initially, when he found himself in a foreign body with a mysterious entity named Mobos by his side, it became apparent that he had transformed into a Villain, and not just any villain, but a Disaster Class one – the highest tier among common villains. However, as the narrative unfolds, he undergoes multiple power enhancements, eventually shattering the boundaries of power levels and gaining recognition as one of the most formidable villains. Even the Money King, one of the Four Evil Monarchs, could not withstand his might.

4. Solo Leveling

S-Rank Was Never Enough For Sung Jin-Woo

  • Genres: Action, Fantasy, Adventure, Shōnen, and System-based (LitRPG).
  • Author: Chugong
  • Artist: Jang Sung-Rak (Dubu) Redice Studio.

Sung Jin-woo might be considered an exceptional protagonist who disrupts the power dynamics within his universe. Originally a D Rank Hunter, he ascended to the elite S Rank, transforming into a formidable solo warrior and potentially embodying the legacy or reborn form of the Shadow Monarch.

In simple terms, Sung Jin-Woo’s abilities are virtually boundless, and his arrival often leaves some high-tier Hunters who aren’t fully prepared feeling disheartened. Throughout the manhwa (and its subsequent series), Sung Jin-Woo ascends to a divine status, engaging in battles to safeguard Earth from the mightiest beings in the cosmos.

3. The Beginning After The End

His Appearance In Dicathen Completely Altered The Balance Of Power

  • Genre: Isekai, Action, Drama, Fantasy, Sword & Sorcery
  • Author: TurtleMe
  • Artist: Fuyuki23

King Grey had been strong before his demise, tragically betrayed by those he held dear, but upon resurfacing in the magical world of Dicathen, he opted for a fresh outlook on life. Among individuals who regarded him as kin, he was cherished and granted the liberty to explore magic and evolve into a formidable sorcerer.

Drawing upon wisdom from his previous existence, Arthur Leywyn shattered expectations, outperforming every mage of his generation to emerge as the singular mortal worthy of tutelage by the Asura – a race resembling angels, with the ability to transform into Dragons. Consequently, he significantly elevated the narrative’s tension, compelling other characters to stretch their limits and tread in his footsteps.

2. Dragon Devouring Mage

He Broke The Power System The Second He Finished His Studies

  • Genre: Adventure, Shonen, Dark Fantasy, Sword And Sorcery, Action, Reincarnation
  • Author: Ilhwang
  • Artist: Ramwoo

Russell Raymond is the type of character who grows stronger following each confrontation, and it becomes comprehensible when you recall that this individual possesses the ability to rewind time and obtained a relic that awakened his dragon-like ancestry.

Since stepping foot into the academy following his time travel to his younger self, it was evident to both students and faculty that he was fundamentally flawed. His magical abilities far surpassed those of his fellow graduates, leading to a swift recruitment into the Red Tower – one of the Empire’s most esteemed magical organizations. His command over Fire Magic and Draconic Magic places him above any living Archmage or Battlemage in terms of skill.

1. Infinite Mage

Shirone Has Transcended Humanity And Rejected Divinity

  • Genre: Fantasy, Magic, Comedy, Action, Drama, School Life, Sword and Sorcery, Mystery
  • Author: Kim Chiwoo
  • Artist: REDICE Studio

When Arian Shirone joined the Academy late as an apprentice, people scoffed at him due to his simple background and lack of fundamental spell knowledge. However, as he cultivated his unique Spirit Zone (mana field) and surpassed Eruki, the academy’s top student, in calculation prowess, it became apparent that a new epoch had emerged.

During the Academy Invasion Arc, Arian’s immense power became crystal clear as he valiantly shielded his comrades from imminent demise, confronting an attacking Archmage and breaking through the shackles of mortality. It seemed as if he perished, but in truth, he entered a state similar to stasis while ascending to divinity, under the tutelage of a former human who had conquered mortality. However, Shirone ultimately chose to return to his companions. After all, their friendship was his most treasured possession, outweighing even his boundless power.
