    As a fan of the series I honestly loved both episodes from the start. But I'm honestly with you about they should've made them into a one hour special like they did with Oshi no Ko's premiere. They did it for those sneak peeks in certain places so why couldn't they do the same? All in all I'm loving it and I can't wait to see my boy Jinwoo get his glow up

    The big thing about Solo Leveling is that it is more "business" than its contemporaries. It's a mostly clean, tight story with little in the way of extraneous elements. It's not perfect, but it's an excellent first action manhwa offering for people unfamiliar with the genre. Assuming no production hiccups (fingers crossed) it should do well this season.

    I'm glad I'm not the only one who felt that Episode one was a bit of a letdown compared to all the hype surrounding the title. From the start I planned to watch the first two episodes together, and I'm SOOOO glad I did! I can't see why they DIDN'T make Episode one a 40+ minute premiere. It would've made a much MUCH stronger first impression for the anime-onlys!

  • @wildwolffurybolt7081

    I got devastated hearing that japanese would adapt the novel into their names and cultures, highly possible, leaving plot holes there. I learned to find after it aired that there was two separate dub versions, which did save a lot of rage over another korean manhwa/webtoon adaptations just overall sucking. Since I've read the manhwa (its a masterpiece of art, the illustrator put heart, soul, sweat and tears into Sung JinWoo looking at its best, despite being a sick person). So when i saw the first episode, I was happy. I heard the openings and endings I was screaming where the entire 3 houses could hear me in late evening/night. And you know what? I think I screamed almost the entire 2nd episode, not expecting it to be *that* good.
    Personally what I'm trying to say, if you open or discover something, with close to no expectations, you actually come to enjoy it, for whatever it is, and i think its a beauty in itself having abused this trick many times :)
    On the non reader, new AOT debate: AOT also needed few episodes to kickstart the story properly, otherwise, how will you start the story, world build AND introduce the main character all in one episode? Everything needs its pace where you hear just enough of everything to keep you on edge, craving for more, without being too brief and boring.
    Bonus note: many screams were created by discovering that first episode introduction followed the novel, rather than manhwa (in manhwa we have brief gate introduction, and Sung JinWoo before he heads into the double dungeon). In my honest opinion, you can't go wrong with any anime *already* starting in the middle of some important fight, and telling you the story through a flashback... unless its too long or too filler infoed :p.
    I highly recommend reading the manhwa, before new episodes or after, the art is really good. And uh, meme material haha.

    I think it would have helped it the first episode would have been an hour or more just like recent anime frerien, ohinoko, ragna crimson and etc. The hype does help anime but its also a double edge sword if you not source reader and hear the hype you expect great things and can end up disapointed very easily if it does not live to your expectation. The same can be said for the source readers if does not live up to what they read. So far I enjoy the series but time will tell if does not fall and lives up to its name fully.

  • @aaronluisdelacruz4212

    Gonna be honest here. SL has its story and characters as its weakest and only rely on art. Especially when he gets a powerup each time and unlike others that make the mc slightly or equal to their opponents, whenever he power ups and there's no limit nor drawbacks just to show how cool he is. Its in an ungodly amount to the point that it gets tiring early. He is also portrait as this cool emotionless guy that can thak everything and say edgy lines like "that's it?" Especially if compared to characters like Javier from estate designer or Yutuba from her summon, don't get me started with Seiya that is balanced thanks to Ristarte. By the later chapters, we no longer see any point of his power ups and just there making the entire plot of each arc forgettable.

    I don't think it will break the internet, and I do consider it overhyped, but I am enjoying it quite a lot even if each battle so far has left me a little unfulfilled. After the way Jinwoo dealt with the statue room I thought this would become something like him going up levels but also using his mind and perspective to solve challenging battles. But so far the battles have zero brain or strategy to them. They become beat the thing until it stops moving, which is a shame.

    This manwha is mid when it comes to story don't expect too much because it's straight forward and the only interesting part is going at the end where you will know the origin of everything. The part people enjoy with solo leveling is he always grows stronger and you can see it in each chapter and how cold-blooded jinwoo unlike other anime it takes a lot of time for a character to grow stronger and the power of friendship kind of thing doesn't exist in solo leveling.

It does get and stay pretty good rather quickly, but the beginning transition from what just happened in the anime to when it starts to get good is extremely bland imo. Expect a mediocre episode or 2 after these first 2, and then it'll start picking up the pace.

    As someone who finished reading the LN for this last year. I was left thinking the exact same thing after watching both episodes. I was surprised to learn that they didn't take the extended 1st episode approach, when it was so obvious that the hype alone merritted it (imo).
    The first episode was pretty meh, and had a bunch of unnecessary elements in it. They should've really given a brief intro to the world and its lore, then introduced us to Jinwoo followed by the dungeon run. Ending in the same.place where episode two did. That would've been a perfect first episode.
    Not sure where the studio will take this series considering the shows visuals seem to hint at something (some of you may know already). I just hope they respect the source and not rush it, like they did Shield Hero S2 and S3.

  • @lunarshadow5584
    @lunarshadow5584 5 місяців тому

    The first mistake was thinking hype will ever be lived up to. The second is thinking the first episode alone would be enough.
    I do very much agree they shouldn't of only put out episode 1 as the first half of episode 1 was mainly exposition and meeting the MC, mixing both episodes into one or shipping both out the first week would've had hearts racing and made everyone more hyped for episode 3 than everyone currently is since we weren't blue balled twice to reach the start of his journey to level up.

    To be honest there are a ton of manhwa and LN stories on this premise. It can be down right agony trying to find good ones if its your thing. Me I check em out see if I'll like them and follow them if I'm interested. My favorite is "I Stole the Number One Ranker's Soul". It starts off very slow, as in your not starting to get invested till around ch10 but by ch25 your hooked. I'm actually not all that into Solo Leveling but I can get why some like it. I think I might have liked if I wasn't so burnt out on OP male protagonists. I'm not saying there are too many or anything but last season was a bit saturated and so this is in the "I'll watch it when its done and I just want to watch something" box for now.

      the heck man. its not any of those things you mentioned. the mc comes back alive but hes not op at all. he has to work hard for it so every monsters/enemies he face were all stronger than him. that’s a life check that even though he worked hard its still not enough so it will still be frustrating for him. collecting waifus? the fck? its not even harem to begin with, he doesnt give a fck about any girls honestly. also, he doesnt get all oh shes hot ill take her. its hyped because of the action sequences portrayed in the manhwa

      The MC gets only a single woman, *no* harem whatsoever.
      Its just a *simplistic* story and it was just hyped up because of how the Manwha presented itself
      There are tons of other manwha in terms of story (And art), that are much more greater

    Honestly, it's a reused premise, worlds weakest turns into a beast. We've seen it in tons of anime, it's nothing new. Couple it with extreme violence and mix in a little intrigue and we've got the formula for a dollar printing machine. So far though, it's not exactly a series I'm waiting for with baited breath each time a new episode goes live. The series 7th loop did more in 23 minutes to hook me than this did with over an hour of animation so far. Now, let's give the series some credit, so far it's just been world building and giving a teaser on what we can expect; and that's how I'm going to take these first episodes as. Now that they've established their premise, it's time to start delivering on what all the hype is about. The series isn't unwatchable or unenjoyable yet, but for all the hype, I'm not seeing what's so special about it.

      pretty much that, This isnt a Japanese series and originally came out around a decade ago, it started a lot of trends similar in manwha as well. Solo leveling is just a korean power fantasy that does its job well, and people loved that. But because of that people are getting their expectations too high i feel.

      thats pretty much the point of the series. Its a korean novel turned manhwa that came out around 10 years ago. Its a power fantasy that does its job well but isnt much beyond that. People loved that when reading it so it generated hype, problem is its setting up poeple's expectations too much because for Japanese stories and manga, power fantasies arent liked very much and can be considered oversaturated. its somewhat of a different audience thats expecting something else since these types stories are liked a lot more as manhwas

    • @faersaye
      @faersaye 5 місяців тому

      well yes because its for a different audience. i have read and enjoyed solo leveling so much from start to finish so i could say it was special for me. not because its the best story out there but because it was my first one. the good thing about solo leveling though is we can see his growth gradually. he doesnt get op in a span of minutes, he worked hard for it. also to make sure he isnt that cringy overpowered characters, the author sets him up with difficult characters to fight with. if you cannot see how special it is then it is not for you because this story is simplistic. its a hyped power fantasy with tons of action and this is a done right presentation of basic weakest to overpowered character.

    I've listened to the audiobook version to the latest release. The story is the king of mid. I have no idea why everyone is losing their minds over this. The only thing that will help this in the anime is a very high quality of animation because the plot and characters just doesn't boost this into the low end of good.

I don't mind light novel style writing or how brief it can be. But I've read similar stories to this many times before and nothing was new or exciting. It was just functional which is fine. Being mid is better than half of everything, and I called it the King of Mid which is almost into the top 30% by my standards.

      @@xoso599 I guess that makes sense if you’re sick of the op protagonist manga. I can see how solo leveling would be disappointing. I like that type of story so solo leveling is my standard of how I rate those types of manga. I think you might like Skeleton Soldier Couldn’T Protect The Dungeon over this as it’s an op protagonist but there’s a build up to it.

      The reason solo leveling huge is the manhwa. If the anime followed the LN, then that's already a sign that it will be mid.
      And it is actually mid. It's actually rated lower than some "unknown" anime series about pharmaceutical and certain elf girl that aired around the same time.
      The reason why it's adapted to anime is manhwa's popularity. Without that, i doubt any studio will bother with that bland story.

    It’s a hype anime, that’s all it is. It’s the type of anime where you watch it screaming and pumping your fist in the air as if you’re watching your favourite sport. It doesn’t have a super deep meaning, it’s not a mystery anime, and it’s not complicated at all. Kinda like demon slayer, but way more edgy. That’s why i love it.

    I've read solo leveling, it's a fun read. I was never really invested like a lot of people because i had read the korean inspirations for it in their webnovel format years before solo leveling was conceived, so it always felt a little bit derivative. That said the web comic is beautifully illustrated.
    I wasn't impressed by the first episode of the anime. It was actually sorta shitty, they make an awful mistake of starting on a late stage story battle (big dumb battle with no stakes for the audience) which i don't remember being in the webcomic; then they jumped around providing exposition dumps through various 3rd parties which were unnatural and disjointed. the first episode was dogshit up until they got to the actual start of the web comic.
    The second episode was well adapted, though they force fed some side characters that get introduced later as exposition tools. I sort of have a lowered expectation for the anime at this point. it just seems so clumsy and poorly thought out.
    even the end of the episode was sorta stretched unnaturally in order to land on a cliffhanger; it just doesn't feel like they'll get it right at this point.
