Yeah, the actor dude wasn't really used for anything but to explain why there was a whole bunch of journalists around, to make sure everybody now knows Jinwoo is a big deal. The jokes of humiliating the arrogant actor weren't exploited all that well.
I'd suppose the point is that very soon, stuff he could buy from shops (not counting his player store behind the UI) won't be worth anything for him. He was already wondering how a lousy (from his point of view) dagger can be so expensive. So, he can now buy "better than nothing" stuff without worries. The good stuff he has is loot.
Didn't they lock his info initially because he's suspected to be a reawakened and through quite pecual circumstances, like being the sole survivor? Now he's officially an S rank, so I suppose he deserved the respect all S ranks have.
I suppose they aren't meant to be seen and if seen by humans, they will hide, not fight.
I guess, but that would require Jinhoto confess that his dad, the head of a mega corporation, has fallen ill. and I don't care how much of an idiot is he, he should know better than to let that leak (stocks? plummetting). heck, I don't think he should even know about it. didn't they kick him out of the house? AND sung should somehow disclose his super secret quest and system interface. again, even he should know not to do that.
then again, next episode has a title "tired of looking up to you", which I could read as Jinho turning on sung. but i don't see it happenning.

Like being able to ambush travelers?
Peace.
I skimmed through a few old episodes and found out that a few characters from this season were already shown during the previous one - like there was actually a scene where two mages from the High Orc team met up with the healer from the Ice Elf team and they talked about their respective captains - how "Iron" wasn't very nice while the High Orc team leader was a decent chap etc.
I was slightly sad that Tusk only got generic fire blast animations instead of his "Song of ...." spells with the dragon heads. That would have been cool.

Episode 20
----------------------
Hah, funny that.. now we bring up the fact that he used to stack strength when he upgraded his stats. I remember when fatigue used to be a thing that kicked in as well, but that hasn't been the case for some time.
It'd have been better if Baran talked. It's oddly out of place that the demon girl and his dad does, but no one else bothers to.
Jinwoo killing Baran on his own was also somewhat hard to believe given that many foes he's fought so far have been stronger than him. He's been quite reliant on his strong shadows thus far. Given how Baran held up against them all this episode, I'd have loved to see Baran take on some real damage before getting beaten by Jinwoo (like, losing an arm or something).
But I see the general trend is still - if daggers can't pierce armour well enough, just rip them apart with strength.
Igris being S-class is exciting. No S class human is a threat now.

Esil, and her old man, could resist the voice due to being so shameless, no doubt. I also feel like the fight could have been handled a little bit better. It's nice that Esil played a small role by distracting the demon king for a moment, but the shadows didn't play a huge role toward the end. Though if you count the wyvern as a part of the king's power, as it should be, then the shadows did play a significant role in "wounding" (reducing the power of) the king by allowing Jinwoo to slay the wyvern relatively easily.
she did something! that makes her the most effective female character we saw so far, doesn't it?
Why was the ant analyzed by the japanese team?
I hope he makes the wyvrn part of the shadow army, would bring some variaty to the fights.
I assumed that Japan got hold of their own ant. They're involved with this strike team because they're close to Jeju island as well and would benefit from wiping out the ants. It'd be plausible for ants to have made contact with Japan as well.
I thought that last time he played the Castle levels, he said that he couldn't turn anything there into a shadow. I'd expect it to be the case here from a continuity perspective.I hope he makes the wyvrn part of the shadow army, would bring some variaty to the fights.

Currently Watching: probably a show directed at 9 years old girls, lets be honest.
You know the important distinction between Batman and me? Batman is fictional. In real life, there isn't always an alternative.
"LET ME SUCK YOUR DICK NOW PLEASE UWU!!1" is what I heard during half the episode. >_> Ffs, it's Kirito all over again.
Two things that really irked me this episode, though:
1.) So we're in the final part of season 2, and THREE monsters were capable of speech? That's just bs. And so convenient that the hot girl is one of them. I totally don't understand the overall structure anyway now: So this place that Jinwoo was attacking, is the REGULAR world of these demon elves? Is that where they live and such? Because it certainly didn't look like a place where anyone would live. And also, do all monsters come from the same fantasy-world or is this a case of countless worlds being united in one "challenge world"?
2.) "I don't even have time to use a magic potion" - bitch, pls. You can grab a potion, drink it, and will have 100% power again. You will find a moment for this all-deciding advantage. Come on ...
As for the ants, why is South Korea only asking Japan? I thought these ants are an international threat, so shouldn't China, the USA, Europe, everyone join? Or are there more places like this island in other regions of the world? Weird.
"She's the only non-loli girl in the show, your honor!" will be my defense in court
Demon girl and Tusk both mentioned being transported here and receiving commands in their head afterwards. Ice elf only mentioned his commands but didn't go into how he came to be in that dungeon.1.)

Some island presumably sitting between Korea and Japan has invading ants so they got the two nearest places to strike. Makes sense to me. It's not a world threat. At least, not yet. Once a country is overrun then maybe. You'll also have to gain cooperation with several other countries.

Man, so many times I've spammed the button in panic, then regret double-drinking unnecessarily and wasting a charge.Estus now! Estus now!
The only thing worse is the empty flask animation lock.

Estus now! Estus now!

So basically he has access to unlimited cure all potions. Because he will eventually speedrun the castle and even be able to process more bottles each turn. Probably of even higher quality too. The father of that D hunter will come back at some point to get a bottle too, unless there are some yet to be shown perks/side effects.
He will also be able to necromance that high elf at some point, as the castle is back to its original state.
I'm just wondering if that Radiru girl will also reset. The setting was that her group/familly/kind live now in the castle, so it might be they are not part of the reset.
New motivations needed. And already some veteran ptsd...
Couldn't care less about hunters gathering, everyone is weak. And we'll learn that that A rank ant was among the weakest and probably not even a fighter ant (remember there are roles).
I guess next ep will move to show just how weak everyone is compared to Jinwoo.
All the things I really like to do are either illegal, immoral, or fattening. And then: Golf.
I'm just glad the whole "curing his mom"-quest is resolved inmidst the anime and not delayed until the very end like most anime would have done. However, I have a bad feeling about it, like, something will suddenly happen to the mom
Still not sure why not the whole world is helping South Korea with that island. It again sounded like this is an international threat that is so severe that it couldn't be solved in 3 past attempts.
The sparring battle next episode will be fun, especially when Japan beats the South Koreans and then Jinnwoo somehow gets shoved into the arena and KOs them without any effort lol.
I was kinda hoping demon elf girl would accompany Jinnwoo to the real world. Would have made for a cool precedence, "the first dungeon being officially visits our world"-kinda event. And would have been fun if her and Jinna became friends. Imagine the demon elf girl living at their place and protecting Jinwoo's mom and sister
Why would everything reset? I thought the demon elf girl was a real living being, not a computer simulation. That's why I also think Jinnwoo cannot farm the elixier, hence why they gave him 6 potions at once, so that he can wake up some important characters. But he will probably try to get more, only to find out that the rewards change/cannot be obtained multiple times.
"She's the only non-loli girl in the show, your honor!" will be my defense in court
so, did the elf girl serve any purpose?
