| Beautiful episode.We saw Jin-woo's real journey's start in the dungeon.He got through his perseverance and hard work and got constantly stronger. Really loved the fight against Rasaka.Also the OST is fantastic. And we got to see how strong he became.He took down a golem in a single shot which even many Hunters couldn't defeat together.But this is only the start.Eagerly waiting for the next episode. |

| Again, more tutorial-esque episode. It's like watching a video game playthrough. Generic monsters, generic fights, absolutely nothing at stake, no sense of danger, not worried for characters, nothing to lose, cheap pseudo-cliffhangers just to push people to buy the source material. Disappointing so far. Surely overhyped... Here we go again with the "just wait for next episode" with promise of the story really taking off next week... they say that every week :/ If at least the S-class guys in the first episode had done something impressive/catchy... but if this was supposed to be a teasing for the top hunters... yikes. I'm not officially giving a rating to a show until episode 12, so I'll wait, but so far, it's between a 4/10 and 5/10 with essentially no potential for rewatch. Sorry to break it to you. |

| @Radical_Orion you can just drop it now since again this show is about power fantasy and rule of cool like how cool he is being overpowered more and more |

Did we even watch the same episode??? - It's episode 4 and he was level one. Why wouldn't he be in a tutorial-esque situation? - Nothing at stake? He could've died at any given moment! - Cliffhanger? What are you talking about? This episode didn't have a cliffhanger. - The monster was really well animated and wasn't a generic one because there aren't anymore similar ones in the story. Orc are generic monsters in the series, they show up a lot. |
| So he goes from not being able to beat 1 wolf, to being able to just beat 2, to being able to beat 20, then being able to solo a boss unarmed that is stronger than the boss on the street that a full team with gear couldn't beat. You know how Force Awakens sucked in part because Rey was a Mary Sue who could beat a Sith Lord trained by Luke Skywalker despite having never used a sword before? This guy is 100x worse. Also the fight scenes were pretty terrible. Oh well, wasn't expecting much but this is well below. |
| Yo what an amazing episode! Fight scenes were just perfectly animated. Jin-Wo is getting so much stronger now and he even was able to defeat a dungeon boss! Can't wait to see his strength increasing! He also got items and understands that "game" now. |
| Pretty good adaption so far. They animated pretty much everything that i can remember. Only adding/leaving out some stuff here an there but no serious changes yet. |
| My prediction was right. Horrible start from previous ep but turn over quick in either ep 4 or 5. This is good chara development. |
 |
| Sung Jin-Woo's voice actor is something special. |
 |
| He's changing his physical appearance, so we are seeing the true nature of this character. He will be THE STRONGEST. I'm glad of him overcoming all these big bosses with his actual level. Big will, courage, love. Now he's on his own way, and nobody can't stop him. Keep leveling, Sung Jinwoo. |
| I just tell myself not to think too much about how flawed the world's mechanics are or how strangely convenient things are for him as he's the protagonist and just enjoy the fight scenes. Here's hoping to see him level up from his baby face as he's starting to actually level up. |

Yaggamy said: - Nothing at stake? He could've died at any given moment! You truly believe the main character is going to die? A good story with a relatable and engaging stake is "what is the worse that could happen to MC?" , and usually, if it's just death, we know it's not going to happen, so, pretty bland, sorry. A well written story gets you with true uncertain stakes. Yaggamy said: - Cliffhanger? What are you talking about? This episode didn't have a cliffhanger. Cliffhangers in plural as I'm refering to previous episodes and overall serie so far, even mentioned first episode :/ Yaggamy said: - It's episode 4 and he was level one. Why wouldn't he be in a tutorial-esque situation? 4 episodes of padding for that? It could have been done in 1 episode and half, EASILY. Sorry but the TRUTH had to be told. I understand that the truth hurts sometimes... |
| This episode was actually enjoyable now the show has done away with all pretence about him being the weakest and just fallen in line with the usual OP power fantasy dynamic. All that's left now is him "thinking" he's weaker than he is. Oh I just took that boss down by throwing a broken sword at it, well the hunters must have worn it down otherwise that would never have happened, right!? |

| A1, you’ve done it again. The quality of this episode was outstanding! |
 |
| Does he have to sound like Eren though? Ugh... Well, that part is over at least. Gonna be more fun watching without the whining. |

| guess her PTSD is still going strong, but unlike Jinwoo, she doesn't have any goal she wants to achieve or any motivation to get over her weakness. but dang! that was one heckuva throw, and that tanker knew it wasn't them who took down the golem's barrier. |
       |
| i hope he transforms soon cuz i can't take any more of thsiisi |
 |
| I'm a manhwa reader and I'm waiting for Jinwoo to have his goodlooking form to watch the anime. So is he good looking in episode 4 ? I want to see him powerfull (the only reason we read the manhwa) |
| This was sick so glad I didn’t read the source material and waited for the adaptation Jinwoo got that dawg in him fr 🔥🔥🔥 |

| A1 is going all-in with this animation. Crazy good episode, idc if ppl say it is nothing special, i just having so much fun! |
| “Do what feels right in your heart. You will be criticized either way.” (Eleanor Roosevelt) |
| This episode flitted around with exceptional animation. Then on par animation. Almost glaringly so. It would've been something incredible if it could've kept that quality. For the entire runtime. Instead of short bursts. Interspread with massive drops back down to "normal". Hopefully, they smooth this out moving forward. I really want this to be special. |
 |
| the action is good but i dont like how the main character is the only one who can get stronger |
 |
| This was actually good! Though the Lycans beeing written in red yet going down relatively easy/1 hit while the boss was orange was weird. I guess he was intimidated by the design though, since he literally crushed it bare handed. Its good he stopped beeing a whiny bitch as well, this show might be good after all. Random thought: When he first went down into the boss room I thought Metro would make for a cool anime. Other random thought: This show really needs better music, just think about how much Attack on Titan got elevated by having hype music. |

I guess he was intimidated by the design though, since he literally crushed it bare handed. Magical energy is the only thing that is measurable in this world, other stats are not. Think of it like a geiger counter. It can tell you the radiation level of the item, but not its other stats: size/weight/density. Stats are somewhat close to each other, there's no big divination. An S rank healer has the strength of an A rank fighter for example. Because of this magical energy is a good overal indicator for how strong something is. But SJW went all-in on strength, he could punch above his weight class. The system compared his magical energy to the enemy's when deciding the color of the name on the screen. |

| Nice episode, I remembered how much I need this type of anime, you don't have to think too much, you just watch and enjoy the well-animated action. |
