JSB

back to back peak shows😍

JSB

Side note might wanna keep make the next show a short one too, solo leveling was announced to return by the end of this year or beginning of next. As long as it doesn’t get delayed like it was before.

Erin Ryan

Literally I couldn't care less about any of the characters other than Jinwoo

Mother government🗣️🗣️🗣️

Isekai means otherworld. Lots of isekais treat their world settings like a video game with leveling system. Solo leveling is a reverse isekai because it doesn't take place in another world that the MC has been transported or reincarnated into and even though it still possesses the videogame leveling up mechanic like other isekais. Hopefully this clears up any confusion.

Gdawg88

And what makes it more reverse is the magical aspects got transported to the normal world rather than a normal person transported to a magical world

mal

the main story didn’t start yet. the first season was just dipping your toe in the water in terms of plot. the fight scenes are fire tho.

mal

yea i’m hoping we get more invested next season

bunmlij

a telltale sign of garbage writing. kinda wish they hadn't bothered with this

HBelmont 24

Man, having heard Jinwoo's VA previously as Zenitsu from Demon Slayer is gonna make this WAY more fun.

Nathan Ganesan

Fun fact, the soundtrack is by the same guy as the attack on titan soundtrack.

yob

only watched the first ep and thought it was mid so now I have a reason to actually watch it

Letts React

after season 1 i can say i really enjoyed it!

Schlong Shucker

Haven’t seen it yet, finally got a reason

BtdoesGaming

Honestly I like watching shows that Kenny has already seen it makes it fun to see him notice things like the hunter getting his level reading in this episode.

HBelmont 24

"I'm hooked. I'm invested." Par for the course, Monty. 😄😁 Man, I wish I didn't have to wait a whole week for the AMAZING second episode!

HBelmont 24

That's probably by design. Also, I'm guessing season one was mainly meant establish Jinwoo's position, and season two will bring in more characters.

Juan Solo

To be fair, season 1 mainly followed Jinwoo. There's a good chance season 2 will focus more on the other characters, considering the set up with the island recon mission.

C. J. Ramirez

Couldn’t make it past the 5th episode

Lyrical Kell of Music

I’m actually the opposite, it’s still fun but it puts a huge damper on the conversation between the 2, Kenny can’t theorize with spoilers and Montana doesn’t have anyone to really bounce ideas off of

sav

skill issue

Cody Simpson

ya same for me, its why i was holding out hope he wouldn't watch new MHA episodes dropping. seeing their combined reaction would rule.

Thiivi

So an Isekai is a story where the main character is transported to or trapped in a world different from their own. This show is a reverse Isekai because these monsters came from another world to the world of the main character.

Snow

That sounds like a you issue honestly.

Bryan

I’m so excited cuz I haven’t seen it yet but I’ve read it

Gestrid

I watched a few episodes of this, but then life got busy, so I wasn't able to finish it. It'll be fun to watch the dub along with you guys!

EndSoul995

kenny try not to watch ahead challenge impossible

Josh

Okay so now I can only hear mother government no matter how many times I listen to it lol

Jackson Nelson

This is my first time watching SL and it's like Sword Art Online and Hunter x Hunter had a baby.

Void

This anime is one of the best English dubs I’ve ever heard. Can’t wait for yall to hear some of the later scenes. Jinwoos VA is insane! Also I’m new here so I’m not sure where we suggest new anime but I would LOVE to see you guys react to Spy X Family. It’s different than what you’ve reacted to but it’s so good. Great action, comedy, and it’s super adorable. And the English dub is really good! I think you guys would love it

Graham

If I’m being honest, Solo Leveling is kinda just trashy fun. There’s maybe two or three characters including Jin-Woo that have any decent writing behind them.

HBelmont 24

Spy x Family's been on their radar for a while, but they couldn't do it cause of c*pyright. Still, that's how it used to be for Demon Slayer, so fingers crossed 🤞.

Jinchuriki87

Damn getting some hell-a HunterxHunter vibes

Jinchuriki87

Agreed with Kenny, that big ass door would've been a big HELL NO for me lmao

Letts React

Sadly spy x family is on another level of difficulty copyright wise, it’s near impossible

Bob Loblaw

Is that really how Jinwoo is pronounced?!

BLUEMONKEY18

I read the whole webcomic and am nervous excited for the anime, didn’t watch it but since you guys are giving it a go let’s see

Day

Same, but at least so far they've stuck to the webtoon fairly well

Day

Yeah jin-oo but jin-woo is also fine

Day

A lot of ppl actually compare it to SAO! I'd say it's like SAO but minus the harem and dumbness lol

Day

That's true, but if they follow the webtoon and novel, the entire story is Jinwoo-centered and you get to know other characters by them interacting or discussing Jinwoo tbh But I have a feeling the anime will give the side characters more scenes 🙃

Bob Loblaw

I wonder what else I've mispronounced since I only ever read the manwha

Erin Ryan

I've read the comic and the other characters kinda only exist to make jinwoo look cool. Don't get me wrong I love it and I love jinwoo. I love when an assumed weak character shocks people with their strength. It gets me so hyped. Plus ngl he's also just really hot. Cha Hae-in and Go Gunhee are pretty cool too.

renuzui

I haven’t read the webtoon so I can’t say how accurate the anime has been, but I binged the whole anime and in my opinion it was incredible. Can’t wait for season 2.

StorytellerDave

The core idea of the show is not bad, but the pacing and the tempo they establish things in is just all over the place tbh. It also suffers greatly from the classic repeating the same lines and scenes over and over and over again trope of anime. I feel like you could cut this season down by 2 entire episodes without losing anything bc there's so much repeated stuff.

StorytellerDave

Skill and tactics are the biggest things I feel like people in this universe should focus on. You can't train to be stronger, but you can train to fight better as a team. Learn from real life armies and squads and have a proper strategy set up, with clearly defined roles and teamwork. In the fight against the ants a phalanx would have been absolutely amazing, but instead everyone fights scattered in a loose formation, doing the opposite of teamwork. Also the tech feels unclear, like yeah weapons don't work, but you could still have walkie talkies, nightvision goggles, climbing gear, etc that could all help out in dungeons. Not to mention remote camera drones. Even noisemakers could help, like throw something to attract the monsters to draw them out from hiding spots. I'd also personally test smoke grenades and flashbangs to see if they do anything.

StorytellerDave

31:50 - That's actually an interesting point about experience and I mean real life experience. There's a saying - Respect an old man who is in a profession where people die young. In real life, commanders and generals don't have to be strong, they just have to be knowledgeable. It's honestly a failure of the system that someone who has been participating in as many dungeons as Jinwoo isn't exploited more for his knowledge of dungeons and isn't treated more as a teacher, coach or strategist. I am quite frankly baffled by how little training or preparation these hunters seem to have, they feel greener than green. I don't know if there's an academy or school or a class hunters take before they're allowed into dungeons, but if there isn't, clearly there should be one.

XRay24 Marinecrops

Gotta say I love your background music when you have side bars

NOTLIKETHISx1312

You guys should watch Hunter X Hunter 2011, I'd think you'd really enjoy it and it's depth and dynamic of trauma and character development

Emma Rose

Mother Government 😅 I heard it too

Limini

It's bc they're low level hunters and mostly freelance Higher level hunters work differently and also get training through their guild etc

Limini

In Korean the w is usually silent

Bread&Jam Reacts

It’s not an Isekai. Isekai is a genre of anime where the main character dies and is reincarnated into a different world/time/person. I think this anime is an action anime.

demonic-myst

actualy reverse iseiki means when monsters from another world enter our world its reverse portals

demonic-myst

0.1% thats percent of population are awakened and onky half of them become hunters

Kosomak

bro I swear to god every reaction i've watched so far kenny has already seen it wtf did i even pay for like can he just not solo react and record it when montana cant be there?
