I did not plan to watch Solo Leveling for a while, a friend of mine had been asking me to watch it for weeks, infact months ago, she said I would like Solo Leveling, she kept saying "you should just give Solo Leveling a chance,", I do not always watch something just because everyone else is watching it, Especially when it comes to anime series that everyone is already talking about, sometimes when something is really popular I get a little stubborn about it, So it was the reason, I just kept putting off watching Solo Leveling.
Not until three days ago.
I was really bored I mean really bored, I had nothing to watch and nothing to do at home, I was sitting in my living room just scrolling and scrolling on .y phones, that was when I remembered her voice in my head saying "you watch Solo Leveling", so I opened my movie box, searched for Solo Leveling, I saw that I had season 1 of Solo Leveling, i pressed play to watch.
And okay… so I won’t lie.
She didn’t lie too...
Currently I am on episode 6 now, I can tell yout the anime is really good, I like the anime more than I thought I would. The anime is interesting. I am even happy I started watching the anime.
Now, for anyone who has not seen it, Solo Leveling is set in a world where mysterious gates connect Earth to dangerous dungeons filled with monsters, and bosses, some humans awaken special powers and become Hunters, that are ranked from E (the weakest) to S (the strongest), our main character, Sung Jin-Woo, starts off as the weakest of them all, like literally, he is known as the world’s weakest hunter. he barely survives low level dungeons, he constantly gets injured, and only decides to keeps going because he needs the money to take care of his sick mother and younger sister at home.
What makes this anime interesting is that he doesn’t start as some overpowered hero, he is fragile, he Struggles, almost pitiful at first, and that is what makes him lovable.
Everything changes during a dungeon raid that turns into a nightmare, that had was supposed to be a normal mission now becomes a deadly trap inside a hidden double dungeon filled with terrifying statues and some impossible rules, the tension in that arc was really crazy, people start dying and panic begins to set in, and Jin Woo, despite being the weakest, steps up in a way that nobody had expects.
That moment shifts everything.
Him , after barely surviving, he wakes up in a hospital and realizes something strange has happened to him, he now has access to something called "The System,” like a game interface that only him can see, It gives him quests, levels, stats, and the ability to grow stronger, basically, he is the only hunter who can level up.
And that is where the fun truly begins.
Watching him go from being weak and overlooked to becoming stronger is really satisfying. It does not happen instantly. It is not unrealistic. You see him put in the effort. You see him train. You see him push through the pain. The animation, during the fight scenes is very clean. I like watching him become stronger because it feels real. You get to see the work he puts in to become stronger. The fight scenes are really well done.
I I really like Sung Jin woos character. He is a person and he is determined. Sung Jin woo is not loud for no reason. Sung Jin woo just wants to survive and protect his family. There is something, about Sung Jin woo that people can relate to.
So yeah....
So yeah....
I have not finished season 1 yet, but from what I have seen so far, I get why people love it, my friend was actually right, I am actually hooked, now I am looking forward to finishing it and seeing what she will recommend next for me
I guess maybe I should really listen to her more often.
Thanks For Reading
