Esil flip flopping between trying to kill Jinwoo or serve him was a nice moment of levity during this action packed episode.

Jinwoo vs Baran was another dazzling fight in this show!

This episode was amazing and the animation was on point as usual, my only complaint about it is that they removed a couple of Esil scenes, I said it before and I'll say it again, Esil is the best character for me and I hated how the Manhwa cut her off from the story after this, and the anime did her even dirtier because she gets even less screen time, fuck!

She basically appeared in this episode, and now you will remove her just like that? director or whoever is in charge of this change, what the fuck are you smoking? stop smoking crack mate, Esil deserved more than this, I understand you had to rush it to kill Baran in this same episode, but come on man, at least give her a whole episode for character development because this is the thing this franchise lacks the most, and then you can kill Baran in the next one.

Because of this, I will remove a point from this amazing episode, so 4/5.

As a manhwa reader I´m very happy Solo Leveling is getting the adaptation that it deserves! And you can tell this season has improved some many things like animation, soundtrack, fight scenes, etc. I cannot wait to see the Jeju Arc is gonna be EPIC!!!

So that demon girl is Esil, daughter of the Radiru family and it seems some in these dungeons were taken from the Demon Realm to defend certain areas, or other realms for that matter. The way she was begging for his life, but then tries to attack him when he has his back turned was so comedic, and then when Jinwoo told her father that he was gonna borrow her was comedic as well given that he had to explain that he didn’t mean it in a romantic sense.

It was good that Jinwoo spared her life since she guided him to get the entry permits for the other floors, and she was clutch in the fight against Baran. Without Esil throwing her spear as a distraction, Jinwoo doesn’t have the opening needed to rip off Baran’s arms and then PUNCH HIS HEAD OFF! Now the Demon’s Castle has been conquered and Jinwoo has the three ingredients needed to create the Elixir of Life and save his mother, which explains why the next episode is titled “It was All Worth It”. Now the question will remain that when he cures his mother, will other people question how she woke up? If so, how will Jinwoo combat this? I’m assuming he’ll make it look like the doctors found some miracle or something because I know he doesn’t want any more attention than he has right now.

On the real world side of things, it seems this collab between Japan and Korea is about to go down, with the Leader of the Drawn Sword Guild, Ryuji Goto sending his 10 S-rank Hunters as decoys. Speaking of, I like how they transitioned from Hanekawa, the interpreter talking to him (at least for the sake of the audience; Hanekawa was still translating). When Jinwoo gets back, the other S-ranks are gonna be looking at him since he was newly ranked and he’s been summoned for this raid. So in other words, Jinwoo likely won’t have much time to rest. Maybe he’ll forgo the raid in order to spend quality time with his mother.

Will Jinho tell Jinwoo what happened to his father?

I’m excited to see what can possibly go down in the next episode!

Reply to Me_Mario
So not only was I right to feel sad for the intelligent monsters before it was pretty much confirmed that they are just being controlled against there will. Which still feels bad for the ice elf all the way at the start, Which he couldn't even bring back as a shadow.
Meanwhile while he's "picking up girls in the dungeon" people being torn apart by these bugs. Anyway yeah seems all "monsters" have just been brain hacked fr.
If normal weapons are ineffective how are they dissecting it? Like are those also dungeon tools then? are all people dissecting it technically hunters... like...
Anyway hope he makes it back in time for the JeJu raid and also hope he gets to meet his father soon. These Japanese guilds defenitly gonna be some sort of plot point just don't know exactly what yet though.
Oh yeah also hope he at least arises someone from all that... that one guy was probably too strong to arise just like the ice elf guy but maybe like his dragon or something.
@Me_Mario That's a good question. Either one, they are using special tools made from dungeon rewards or two, they are able to be dissected upon death, like any other animal.

The kawaii demon princess delivered at the most critical moment.
Sung would have almost certainly died had Esil not distracted the Demon Monarch.
Elixir of Life = ✅
But will Sung share it with Jin-Ho for his dad, assuming he can spare some?
At the end, with 0 mana left, he defeated the demon boss with sheer brute force.
Fascinating...

Japanese S rank Goto Ryuji is here and is planning with Korean hunters for another S rank.

Baran genuinely gave Sung a tough battle at first. He was overpowering him and his top soldiers all at once. But his defeat felt kinda ass. He was one shotted with an uppercut. I wanted the fight to at least last as much as Tusk's fight.

Also Esil's introduction felt kind of a harem option for Sung nothing much

Solo leveling is a masterpiece it has no plot and no deep characterisation but it doesn't need it and that's not the focus

Oh lols, a demon pleading leniency to Jinwoo is about the most hliarious thing ever, though he only cares if it benefits him all the more. And the eldest daughter of Esil Radiru trying to clarify Jinwoo's suspicions about the voice in their heads, there's something sinister about it, just as a winged ant suddenly murdering people in Japan that's not far from Jeju Island, prompting yet another raid operation. All Jinwoo cared for is the entry permit to higher levels, and Esil would benefit him greatly navigating the higher floors, while training his Demon Hunters along the way to higher difficulty monsters.

From the 80th Floor to the 100th facing Demon Monarch Baran alongside his wyvern, Jinwoo knows that he will face one hell of a battle, and the battle doesn't let up, just as the winged ants joint extermination operation, joined by Drawn Sword Guildmaster Ryuji Goto, it's of the utmost importance to strategize together and make the operation work. Baran forcing Jinwoo to use up all of his mana, leaving only his raw swordmanship against the Demon Monarch.

Esil's last-minute help giving Jinwoo the victory he needs, she's just as important of a side supporting character, the rizz just works.

Esil being the saviour for Jin-Woo to get the opening to defeat Baran is corny af but IT WORKS ESPECIALLY WITH THESE FIGHT CINEMAGROPHY

Oh boy Jin-Woo's definitely getting drafted for the Jeju Island job considering his new S-Rank status
