Synopsis

Only some children in the orphanage are lucky enough to have a patron—and a small, curious child named Mori starts receiving gifts one day. Mori does not speak, but he listens and enjoys the company of his friend, Rowena, who tells him everything he needs to know. But once Rowena disappears in the warm embrace of her mother, Mori realizes one thing: if every child has a mother, then his own must be out there somewhere.

Having packed his little bag, put on his boots, and donned a red cape—undoubtedly a gift from his mother—Mori sets foot outside of the orphanage and begins his journey. The outside world is dangerous; ever since aliens took over Earth, humans have dwindled in numbers, and various creatures roam the vast lands and build their settlements. Ryder, a scarlet-skinned alien with horns and five eyes, encounters Mori and, realizing his origins and the dangers that await him, decides to help Mori's quest and protect him until he meets his mom.

Preliminary (22/? eps)
As of now, at 22 chapters read, the story is simple but evocative; typical "lost child meets protectors and evildoers along the way" kind of story. Characters and world desing are top tier, tho. Incredible landscapes, creatures, events and secuences without dialogue take place, specially at the begginning. The mix of space opera and fantasy this series transmits is difficult to find amongst mainstream species of webtoon. It's clearly part of the childcare genre, but it buys pretty heavily into the "Adult Fear" trope, as defined in TV tropes. I at least really feared for the child, and understood the concern the otherworldy creatures that ...

"Home is not a place, its the people."

"On The Way to Meet Mom" is a short, deeply emotional manhwa that gently tugs at your heart with every page. It follows a young boy named Mori, who is in search of his mother.

Mori is just a bundle of joy and cuteness, that you would want to protect always. We embark on a journey with him where the narrative brings up questions about parenthood, how a child views parents and what parents are to them, and also how precious and joy-inducing (pardon my choice of words) a child is to them.

The art is soft and warm (the ...

The story revolves around a boy searching for his mother, who runs away from an orphanage. The work conveys the idea of ​​mothers and their importance in life, which is a fairly good idea, although its use in the manhwa was mediocre.

The characters are interesting at first, especially in terms of design, but after a while, you discover they are just empty shells without purpose; they all work to the protagonist's advantage, except for Miria, in whom I found some good qualities, and I liked her relationship with Mori. The story begins with Mori at the orphanage with a friend who receives letters from ...
