Do y'all think it was a good change or a waste of time in the episode?

@MessyMarv No he doesn't. I had to check it for myself because I was like "I definitely don't remember that happening" (it's in chapter 104).

I assume you mean Episode 12.

I haven't read the manhwa and frankly from most of the posts I see I think I'm enjoying the anime more because I haven't. Comparing the anime to the manhwa just seems to make readers miserable.

That said, manhwa aside, in my initial episode reaction I did post that I found it weird that Jin-woo cared so much about Hae-in for no apparently reason.

@LucianF Would he? So far he's come across as pretty cold and calculating, emotionally, for most of this anime. He hasn't been a classic hero type.

@deg That has not been his character for the majority of the show. I would argue that it isn't the character for the first episode either. He sacrifices himself in the first dungeon to protect Joohee because he can't walk anymore and he wants her to escape. THAT has been his character so far, that he pretty much only cares about his friends and family. He has not seemed to be a classic hero who just protects everyone because that's what a hero does. He's only interacted with Hae-in for a combined total of a few minutes, which shouldn't put her into the category of people he cares about.

The Elixir cures diseases, it doesn't restore HP. So it never was a plot hole.

He does care about people though. He saved Jinho from getting murdered by the dungeon boss and later the rogue hunter party, even though Jinho was literally a nobody to him at that point. In the red gate arc, he saved everyone who joined him. Later in nether, he spared Esil coz he found her amusing, even to the extent of sparing her family and helping them to the top of the hierarchy in the hell. As per me, he's cold and calculative only when it comes to his own survival.

YES, just watch all the episodes again until now, don't you remember? He saved that hunter party from the big orks and some others guys.

@V1P3R0P We may have to agree to disagree then. He's saved people he's not connected to, but generally doing so has taken little additional effort on his part and I don't recall him ever seeming to particularly care about them while doing so. The level of panic that Jin Woo expresses this episode when trying to figure out how to save Hae-in in time seems out of character for him to me.

well yeah, he'll panic. A person, who can be saved, is almost dead right in front of him. Why wouldn't he panic about that?

All this time, he'd been fighting alone. Now he has people dependant on him and he's not able to save them. Ofcourse he'll panic right?

You could see him all chill at the beginning when he tried to use a potion on her. He only started panicking when he realized she's close to dying. I think thats a pretty normal reaction over here.

Yes. Low HP is not on the list of conditions covered by the Elixir. We knew this for years...

Yes, he did save all those people, but he essentially was just trying to gain XP, and all the groups just happened to be there while doing so. He almost seems annoyed that he has to help people because they are interrupting his leveling. I know later on in the manwha, it was more noticeable, but I don't know if they will have that in anime or remove it

@V1P3R0P He watched Tusk use telekinesis to beat the shit out of the raid leader and only saved him at the last minute. Even then he showed no panic nor gave any potions to him.

Prior to this event, he only met Cha twice. Once when she sniffed him, and second time when he saved her from the Japanese.

I'm not sure why you guys are trynna picture Jinwoo as some kind of a Psychopath or a sadist.....

Even in Jeju island raid, he waited till, like all S rank hunters were hopeless in the fight to make an appearance and save them. He wouldnt need to intervene when they had control over the situation.

In the A rank party, they already had a healer. Why will he use his potion or panic about it when he
1. knew there was a fairly strong healer in the party
2. When the A rank team's leader was not as critically injured as Cha was.(He can read their aura to tell if they were in danger or not)

You might feel like this is something I'm just pulling off my ass. But if you really think about it, it should fairly make some sense.

@N4rkis

why should he know that it doesnt work? i guess you are talking about the potion of life. I mean he could have known, but he at least tried.



i think it was fine. he ALWAYS cared for people and saved them. He is only cold to assholes. Thats what i kinda like about him.
He is not like goku or naruto you will save you know matter how big of an asshole you are.

If you fuck him off, he wont care anymore. But as long as you are not an asshole, he will try to save you and he did tha several times before.
I dont think its so out of character.
Also she is hot, another reason for a man to care more xD

Not at all, she's a powerful S-tier lady who has the ultimate hots for him, and it's so obvious that even he must be aware of it, so it's an absolute no-brainer that he's trying to save her, if he didn't then the only plausible conclusion would be that he's not straight.

Given the fact that she was dying and nothing else was working I don’t see why tf not
