The Hype about this manhwa was big, i thought this would be one of the best storys but i was disappointed after reading it.

I read it 2 times because i got mixed feelings after the first time and wanted to know what was responsible for it.

-Story

The story is really good the topic of the weakest becoming the strongest is worn out but Solo Leveling has made out of this topic a unique story which i really like.

The pacing is horrible the most time everybody wants to make the story longer but this time they just skipped the most and rushed the ending.

Sung Ji-Woo is just ... to fast leveling up its just one rank after another the story is to much focused on making the MC stronger and fights.There is not really a story between fights.Its just disappointing that they made him that fast too strong its kinda boring then they could easily pace it slower and make it more interesting and longer. Till chapter 40 the pacing was okay after afterwards everything seemed rushed.

There is not really a heart behind that story. No relationships no comrades not really backstories. It feels empty and filled with only fights.

The end of the whole story is not my type, completely rushed and they skipped everything and just said he was 27 years there fighting and won. The plot with going back in time and destroying everything surprised me but it just didnt feel good like the end lacks something.



-Characters

There is not really a big aim for characters in this story its just about our MC. I feel like the world in solo leveling is empty. There are many interesting characters but none of them got much attention.
Especially his sister her brother is completely different and there are not that much conversations between them. He risked his life as an hunter to pay for his sisters tuition but when he got enough money doesn't interact with her that much.

Then Cha Hae-In our MCs future wife in the story he interacted with her just a few times never showed that much interest but fell in love. Like what? We dont really got much information about her which is kinda strange when shes the MCs girl?

Lee-Joohee appeared some times but in the beginning it looked like she and our MC knew themselves for a long time. She had a crush on him for sure and he liked her also they would go out to eat together if the double dungeon didnt appear. So its also kinda strange that she retired being a hunter and left Sung Ji-Woo without any big conversations they didnt even go out to eat even after it was a promise.Our MC rescued her in the accident and didn't meet her after surviving? He promised to visit her in busan but also never done it. the relationships are just strange in this story.


-Drawing

Cant say anything bad about the drawings its just great the style is on an different level.


In the End i have to say i liked it but was at the same time disappointed of it.

-I can recommend it to everyone who likes fights and an op MC.

-To those who like story with a heart and thought behind it and is more than just battles i wont recommend it.

It could be that some people really like this story.

Personally I started to watch it because it sounded interesting.
In the End the story isnt that interesting. I dont even know why i watched the entire anime.

Story:
The story is as basic as it could be.
A guy plays an VRMMORPG because he is bored of his real life.
I can understand that some of you are disappointent because truck-kun didnt show up to give this anime a last touch.
So Earth plays that game picks the worst abilities and classes which nobody took and somehow found out that if he trains enough the abilities are great. DAMN WHAT AN ... SURPRISE.

Afterwards he is just a little OP and goes on some adventures and bam dragon defeated. Season over.

Characters:
I didnt feel much sympathy for the characters there was no character development in my eyes. The reactions and actions of some Sidecharacters where without any logic.

Music:
Cant say a thing about the music it wasnt bad or great just in the middle also the background music was good nothing to say.

In my Personal Opinion i gave this anime 6/10 Points.

The story was nothing special. But the work of the animators in the animations and music were good.

I could have used my time better than watching this show but its not completely unworthy.

I wont recommend this anime to anyone.

SAO was the first Anime i ever watched which introduced me into the world of anime because of that it got some extra place in my heart if you understand.

But after sometime and rewatching it i understood that it had the potential to be one of the greatest anime but they missed it.

Kirito is trapped in an game and tries to finish it in order to escape from the game.
To see Kirito getting stronger as a lone wolf was interesting to watch. All the comrades he met on his way getting some episodes was great. Also the romance with asna wasnt to much and fit ... perfect in.

Then the second part in order to safe his girlfriend he had to play an other game with an Op Character from his old account. It was interesting to see what he all takes and does in order to save his loved one.

But to be honest after rewatching it some years later i was unsatisfied.

I would have loved to see more of the world of Sword Art Online especially how Kirito got that strong and to see more of the floors it was like 3 episodes staying on floor 1. and then bam they reached floor 40 and Kirito is super strong. They could have done so much more out of it and i would have loved it.

The End of the first Arc was also rushed.
Bam some episodes and they are on floor 75 he killed Akihiko Kayaba by a bug where he stayed alive after dying. It was too fast like they rushed the ending to keep the story going.

So if im honest its not an 10/10 anime more an 8 or 7/10. But i cant be honest it was the first anime i watched and because of that it got some extra points.

Im sorry but my heart dont let me give this anime something less than an 10/10.
I will definitely recommend this anime to everyone.
