| @Enkooo People are hyping up the series not because of its story but for its characters especially Sung Jin-Woo. |
| People complain that it's typical power fantasy blah blah, I like it, you can see that the world is alive, what would happen if all this shit related to guilds and dungeons appeared in our world, corporations making a business out of it and on TV instead of the weather there is a warning about open portals. I also like how the MC is detached from the others, he plays a game and it is more realistic for the rest. |
| Great episode. Love the anime original scenes and the overall vibe of this episode. It feels more dark and dramatic compare to the Manhwa. |
| every episode a cliffhanger. going to wait till season is done and binge it :p |
| The animation is nice but I gotta side with the pacing detractors - it's great to see it in motion, but it does feel disjunct at the end of episode 3 - cliffhangers at every episode. I can only hope that by the end of this first season of 12 episodes that we are rewarded with an awesome resolution and that it'll be nice to sit down and watch all 12 at a time. The weekly disbursements are like ordering a meal and only being able to eat like a few bites before the plate is whisked away by helpful and friendly serving staff. Outside of the pacing criticisms, I love it. It's novel having the Korean names with the Japanese VA, and the story works (it's just oddly disjunct with the standard episodic structure). Hope it runs for four seasons, at least. |
| it's finally starting for reallll |
 |
| Interesting turn of event. I expect him to get better equipment next episode |

| First time noticed the ED. It's quite good, I must say |
 |
| Oh those cheeky bastards! That was one helluva cliffhanger. |
| Once again some very nice pacing. Really nice animation too. The power and level scaling is rising exponentially already. |
| . |
| Alr, so Jin-Wo got kinda revived?? He's playing sth like a game rn where he can level up his real life skills by doing tasks? Anyway, he is already stronger now, defeating these goblins. Will sure be epic when he gets stronger and stronger- I thought healer girl was no longer mentally able to fight, but is asked again. Nice of her to look after Jin-Wo. Still, I want to see Cha in action now, she'll probably be the main waifu of the series? And good luck jin-wo to survive this dungeon in another dimension- |
| Man I really love the animations, its so good. Looking forward for more. |
| after a slow start, things picked up & got more interesting in this third episode. now he's getting some much-needed battles to increase his stats. i wonder who that girl is that is friends with his sister. |

| @ZXEAN The characters were as ass as the story. The main hype of the manhwa was mostly just because of the art. That's literally what I heard nonstop from friends and even people from online in forums when I first got into reading Solo Leveling. It's just a boring standard Korean power fantasy series with art that looked solid for a manhwa for its time. |

Ugh, the pace is killing me. At this rate we'll barely see shit this season and god knows when we'll get a 2nd season. They should've crammed these 3 eps into 1.
Too much running time is wasted on idle stuff and procrastination, Less idle time, procrastination and other characters focus/introduction and BAM, better pace.
Also, i totally forgot what an annoying retarded wuss the MC was at the beginning. He's insufferable. And who ignores a penalty after experiencing such a brutal event ? Serves you right Jinwuss !!

| @BlueSnow93 agree, the mc is tarded. Besides missing the penalty warning like a dumbass, first thing he does is go for a mysterious solo dungeon run without even knowing his new strenght. P.s. This site is so damn slow and buggy. |

| Well, Jinwoo's alive and now started grinding, starting with the daily exercise quest and now the instance dungeon. Honestly, the first two episodes should've combined into one as this episode marks the actually start of the show. |
 |
| He ran a marathon in a desert? Yeah, right. |
| Hmmm I get what Leveling stands for now, I suppose Solo as he's the only person with such "Blessing" etc, With RPG body progress, which he doesn't know that much well not everyone are into games so hard to blame him on that. And bruh the Saitama daily training, I am waiting for Sung to lose his hair, start wearing yellow suit with red cape with announcment that it is a prologue to One Punch Man universe, I know it ain't happening but that would be funny. Yellow HUD for Goblins as in games I suppose they are of similar/equal "Level" as Sung, which is why he handled them despite the struggles of not being experience, while Lycan is red so it is of higher level/danger zone, I wonder if he's gonna be able to defeat the Boss in that case, I guess next week will give me the answer. |
| In retrospection from 4 yrs ago, was little sister in the same uniform? :o how many classes is she repeating |

She was shown in an earlier episode among the people who got their hunter/awakener powers measured.

| @BlueSnow93 i remember her being in the same class with his sister, and she made a crack about him being an E-rank. |

| Random question but is the text actually in english or was it edited for the english release? Pacing seems a bit slow, animation during the goblin fight was weirdly bad for a while. The only other manwha I read for a while was Omniscient Reader and this seems almost like a copy in so many ways. I mean sure anime is pretty similar but even generic isekai has some variety to it. Is this "game mechanics while in real life" the korean thing? |

Reply to felixsifuri
It's unfortunate how short each episode is and how it ALWAYS ends on a cliffhanger. Have some mercy ffs
| @felixsifuri yeah ikr ㅠㅠ |
| hmmmm , it was good except that they didn't end the ep in the prefect moment |
| An other boring episode. So what's the difference with the typical shounen where characters train and chose to develop a specific ability? Except that "it's like a video game". Yeah, well, I play video games/J-RPGs myself, and the level grinding concept in those games is literally a video game adaptation of shounen training... so... what's the point to make an anime about that, to include stats and all...? All it does, is making the training feeling less organic. That was such a drag to watch, and yet an other pseudo-cliffhanger, oooh I can't wait, I can't help but thinking of the millions theories about what's going to happen against that Lycan thing |
Comander-07 said: Random question but is the text actually in english or was it edited for the english release? Yea I noticed this too. This might be because this is the international version. Quite convenient for people who speak English because we have to read words quickly. The JP version might be in Japanese, same for Korean |
 |
| I already read the whole manhwa but i'm still struggling to not watch these the first day they come out LOL |
 |
| This episode flew by! I'm enjoying this a lot so far. Poor Lee Joohee has to go through some extensive therapy. Amazing that Jinwoo didn't experience any causalities. How did he not even level up? That sucks so much but again at least he didn't lose his leg lmao I guess trusting the gos paid off considering that he's leveling up with the training. That was a severe penalty, especially because he's in the desert with no water, but am I surprised that he survived? No, unfortunately not. I'm impressed he was able to kill 4 globins by himself considering he almost died trying to kill one before this. On a side note, what is going on with MAL today? Its been so buggy and it keeps saying error when I post my forum comments. And it seems like there's been a lot of reposted comments probably due to the same issue. |

| @HyroSan I read the japanese release is also changing names, I wonder if they actually bother to redub everything and why we get an "international" version instead of just subbing the japanese anime. |

| @Comander-07 it's obvious. People there are more fans outside of Japan so they're going to focus on us with the original version and let JP version be Japan |

@HyroSan The Japanese version also uses English. I've seen complaints about this on JP twitter.
| @tuyetthan8x Finally, JP complains about language barriers (like us) |

| @MangagnaM Still doesn't change the fact that SL characters are top tier and it's a Power fantasy done right. If you don't like it no need to force yourself to watch it. |
