I thought he's gonna tell the envoy his reason to stay. but this ending kinda implied that he's doing that offscreen.
I do hope they continue the epilogue story though

Well, it was a great journey! I didn't read its novel so i don't know what happens in that ending, so if it's basically the same / it continues / happen some things that the webtoon cutted off, please give me spoilers. I really liked the ending of chapter 179, but i'd prefer an ending with a time-skip, where you'd see Sung Jin-Woo married with kids, with all of his friends happy. Back to this amazing webtoon, it was great to read. Pretty original as a story, nice character development, and great art style. That's a 10/10 in my opinion. Maybe i really should read its novel, as i love Solo Leveling. Well, see you in "Disaster Class-Hero", what the same studios of SL is publishing as their next work, currently with 21 chapters.

Oh wow, I thought we'd at least get another 10 chapters or so before it ends. Feels really rushed, and I didnt like the last arc in general. Overall still a really enjoyable read

i found it funny that pretty much later part of story it has nothing to do with leveling at all. 4/10, carried by art.

The ending was rushed. But still, It was very enjoyable to read and despite all the flaws, this series was a banger. Does anyone know if anything else happens at the end of the novel that was cut in the webtoon? Or is it the same?

Wow that's the ending?? What a journey..

But not gonna lie, I feel like this ending is a bit underwhelming, like it's a great manhwa with a good story but this ending feels lacking, rushed.. I feel like they can explain more, show more like what's the difference between this time and before.. Like what about his past relationships (friends, colleagues, family, etc) and does superpowers still exist here?? Or it's just him (jinwoo) who got powers...

Also I'm kinda disappointed they didn't show his kid like I've heard from the novel readers that he got a kid..

Still a good read but this ending is really underwhelming

This series was great BECAUSE the absurd great visual provided by the artists, and a OK story.

Overall plot: 7/10
Overall hype and action: 10/10

If we think about this genre, the theme of a dense MC focused on "i wanna fight, i wanna be the best", and here, so focused that the title of the series is "SOLO" lol.... actually it was a miracle that we had his and Cha "dating" chapter. Or even they togheter in the last scene.

It is so annoying how an audience of proud incels, teenagers or young adults, who reject romance, strongly influence so many shonen or even some seinen to avoid any good but light romantic subplot.

A bit of romance, with demonstration, why not sex, why not family, can be a nice touch and background to any kind of story.

Still better than AoT, i think.

To compare to another great manga/etc that ended not far ago.


One thing is a lazy, mediocre and rushed clichè ending.

Another is the author actually having effort to slaping in your face and calling you stupid, in black, white and balloons.

There is much room below SL's ending

Meh, I'd say everything after the "orc gate school arc" was a step down compared to what came before. Following the leveling journey was fun but there wasn't much tension throughout the journey unfortunately.. and that was before the whole word reset/new dimension thing.

Good art, enjoyable mc even tho he was massively overpowered, but the side characters not getting much development and not mattering at all in the grand scheme of things was a huge negative to the story.

6 or 7 / 10 is what I would rate this manhwa.

There it is, the end of the tale. I have to say, I quite liked the series from the beginning, but as it drew to the end the purpose kinda got lost and overshadowed with the end of the world bs. But whatever, this was fun to read series in a literal sense, glad I was here.

8/10.

I understand that people dislike the ending and it's not really what we expected first but it's the best ending in SJW's perspective. Anyway, it was a great journey though. Solo Leveling never missed with the insane hype moments and the godly and phenomenal art. It's truly one of a kind manhwa but the story was a mess. I wish it continued a little longer but it ended with 179 chapters which is pretty long I'd say. I'm going to miss Beru and the rest of the boys, most of them made me laugh a lot. SJW is certainly one of the most badass maincharacters ever. Some of the sidecharacters were great but most of them were pretty bland and forgettable.

Rating for writing would be 6-7.5/10 but enjoyment wisely, it's definitely a 9/10 for me.

Thanks for the great journey (and the writer/artist).

So that's it..... don't want to rant or something, but still sad to see we got something like this in the end. Had too much fun in that first half, but second half, especially the later part of the second half was a letdown, but yeah still something you can binge upon pretty much in a day or two. That's pretty much how addictive it is.

Ok, I'm glad he got the happy ending, but I really dislike the time reset since now every single "loss" has been made irrelevant.

First half of the story was much better than whatever happened in the second half.

I can't deny that it was super fun while binging though!

Not sure what to feel about this really. I really liked Solo Leveling for the most part but the final arc felt rushed and the ending in general is too abrupt. Feels a bit like wasted potential for what could have been. I'll still look on this favourably overall but it does leave a bit of a bad taste coming out of it unforunately

I mean tbh it indeed felt somewhat rushed and after the whole 'time travel arc' I honestly felt like dropping the manhwa. I personally think it needed a few more chapters, like some users said above maybe to further showcase and develop his relationship with Cha. So far art and enjoyment wise I would rate this a solid 10/10 but the story itself is kinda meh once you take away the art. But because of my enjoyment I'll leave it at 9. Atleast it ended before it could get worse.

The manwha started with a 10/10, but the last arc was soooo bad and boring.
I m glad this is ending now, otherwise i would have dropped it. Even the art became really bad, it was just purple explosions everywhere, so confusing and boring.

Still one of my favorite manwhas though, because the first arcs are absolutely amazing !

Usually not a fan of manhwas, thought long stripes are so weird and the artstyle is rarely that good as it was in SL. I remember the other one i read quite a long time ago, "the Breaker", it also had such an amazing artstyle and the story was pretty good, but got axed ...
Just to be clear the introduction and the story in general was (pretty) generic yet this manga had something that was attracting you with every chapter. And the art was so good it was so pleasant to read.
Unfortunately the last arc felt/was so rushed as well as the conclusion was so generic. The last chapter was so anticlimatic, basically didn't feel anything after so many chapters.
Wifu is the best, just simple plus for me =/

Don't know if author was forced to rush things and that's why it progressed with rulers like this. I might be mistaken, but if i remember correctly rules were not that "pure" so that they would just ambush the Dragon Monarch and just give Jin Wo the cup or just chat with him about whatever. Again if for rushed reasons then it is what it is =(

Overall was a very fun ride! Been a while since enjoyed a shounen manga/work that much and to my surprise with very generic plotline. A bit dissapointed in last 10+/20 chapters, but it was a great journey.
