Jinwoo is the weakest E-rank hunter and is very poor due to his mother being hospitalized and his sister in school. The world is built around hunters, ranked from S-rank as the strongest, to E-rank being the weakest, clearing dungeons and protecting their world from vicious monsters. The group of hunters stumble upon a second dungeon (Solo Leveling manhwa pg. As a heads up, I know my review is longer than others, but trust me when I say I’ve barely covered half of the first volume! But since we have it in our store, I HAD to finally see why my old roommate was so inclined to suggest the series. His recommendation caught my interest enough that I recalled some aspects of the series when it was mentioned, but sadly not enough to remember to check it out when I was looking for a new series (it’s a curse I’ve been living with for a while). At the time, Black Clover and Rising of the Shield Hero were consuming my free time and my former roommate said that I would love the intense fight scenes in Solo Leveling. And one of those titles that he was adamant about was Solo Leveling.
I hadn’t even heard of the term until a few years ago when my former roommate suggested a few series that would catch this shonen boy’s eyes. In recent years, manhwa (also known as Korean graphic novels), have grown in popularity in Western countries alongside the growth of the online manga industry. If you are looking for your classic, uncomplicated shonen, then this book is for you! When mixing commonly found anime cliches, the focus then turns to plot and execution which Solo Leveling exceeds in. Solo Leveling mixes two very common elements in anime, main character fighting for others, and RPG-style power systems. Cliches are not always a bad thing, a manga/anime can be very cliche and still be amazing. Solo Leveling is good, but it doesn't feel like anything new. This makes for a kind of cliche shonen experience, which isn't to say is bad. To improve his stats, Jinwoo needs to physically train and defeat more dungeons.
