Ore Dake Level Up na Ken / Solo Leveling

[KrayZ33]

I think the show will be enjoyable up until a certain point.
That's how far (and a bit beyond before I realized it) I read and enjoyed the source material as well.

After that it really became quite boring and pretty garbage.

So... season 1 might actually be enjoyable to watch for me.


The ranking system of S,A,B,C,D,E class hunters should tell everyone what this show is about, as we've seen 500 shows like this before and those who do read manwha and isekai stories, probably have read another 5.000 of them. (you know, the ones with names that have like 60 words in them)
And they all suffer from the same errors and mundane story telling. All 5.000 of them.

All 5.000 of them start with them being quite fun, until the author just throws random shit and deus-ex-machina abilities, items and situations into the fray, because they have no flipping idea how to keep their story "entertaining" anymore. They literally have to invent stuff on the fly for stuff to even work out, or to make it not "more of the same we had in the last 100 chapters".

But at the same time, I enjoy almost all 5.000 of them before it gets to that point.. or sometimes even beyond until every remotely intelligent creature on the planets would start thinking: "Okay buddy, this is Goku level of nonsense you are just throwing at me now"

The very first episode, the statue room scene, most likely is what most people got into the series and I believe the anime did it just as well.
You were clearly able to see how everything else was like 10% effort (the explanations on how the gates work and what hunters do etc. - it was so freaking boring to listen to, lol) and the statue room got 90% of it even though it was like 10% of the episode.


The reason why I think the statue room is so good is because it feels like they are actually doing some dungeon crawling and the "Gamemaster" gave them something to figure out, as they are quite clearly not powerful enough (as seen in this episode already)
