What if the absolute being thought things would be even more interesting if he let himself get killed and is now watching the story of solo leveling from another plane of existence?
Funny thing is that there is nothing he could have done to save himself cause if he told them why he did what he did then(from what I heard from ragnarok) they would have stopped fighting and his entire purpose for making them to begin with would have been useless so be killed by them now or die later there wasnt really an out where he survived
@@sumitsisodiya6195 minor difference but ashborne was called "Greatest Fragment of Brilliant Light", and when he became a monarch, the next strongest ruler became called "brightest fragment of briliant light"
Very well explained, i honestly got lost while reading this in the manhwa but proceeded without understanding much of the story. But your video helped me catch up in the story and now i understand everything~ Thank you bro!!
The Absolute being created the Messengers & the Monarchs BECAUSE HE WAS BORED. He wanted ENTERTAINMENT, so he created his children with the sole purpose of fighting and killing each other for his amusement. Upon realization, the Messengers were furious and planned to kill the Absolute being in order to end their suffering. The Absolute Being knew and he let them kill him. . The Shadow Monarch aka Ashborn was loyal until the very end because he loved and respected the Absolute Being (his creator) despite everything. Ashborn was furious and hated The Rulers(the Messengers) due to the way they violently killed the Absolute Being, which made him become a monarch, fighting against the Rulers. But he was betrayed by the other Monarchs. Ashborn isnt really on any particular side. He just wishes for peace and justice. He let Jinwoo take over when he was strong enough so that he could "sleep" into the void where his creator rests.
Tarnak could'nt win because Jinwoo's shadows keeps resurrecting. The moment he realized that it was a trap hes already dead. Beru and Bellion are marshal ranks in the shadow ranking which is the highest a shadow can get. With that power and unlimited resurrection even the other monarchs wouldnt win unless they aimed for Jinwoo if they can tho.
I think the reason why Legia is called the Monarch of the Beginning is because in popular mythology Titans and Giants preceded Gods. This is the same in most all mythologies in ancient times. As for abilities, I think its safe to assume that Legia was a Buffer and possibly a healer as well. This would explain why the Rulers went for Legia first as it is common knowledge in games to go for the Buffer/Healer first. A safe guess into his abilities would suggest that he can Gigantify his allies and possibly give them more strength. His healing ability would also explain his ability to stay alive even while caught by the Rulers. Another reason for believing this is because Legia's cunning could've been a sign that he was the Planner/Strategist of the Monarchs. As we can see when the Monarchs met to plan going against Jinwoo, they did not seem to be able to come up with a good plan except facing him head-on. This might suggest the author saying that the capture of Legia turned the tide of the war as the enemies has then lost their cunning and could only attack head-on. He is also called the Monarch of the Beginning which suggests he preceded the Monarchs which could mean he knows what they are capable of further enhancing his ability to plan against the Rulers. This might also explain why Ashborn despite being so strong did not seem to plan all that well causing Jinwoo to outwit him pretty easily despite their large gap in power.
Very well made, we know a lot more about the monarchs, their individual powers and absolute being in SL ragnarok, basically All monarchs have their own dimension where they draw their powers from like jinwoo and his land of eternal sleep thats why they got weakened on earth as it was a lower dimension and they couldn't draw much power from their dimensions. AB was a race of outer gods who creates countless universes for entertainment, after AB death, those outer gods attack to devour the universe and the remaining mana of monarchs and AB who were without AB. Jinwoo took the position of AB and is now fending off againts the outer gods and their legions. In ruler's words, the power of creation is gone but death is eternal, meaning without AB, the soldiers of rulers won't be born from the world tree but as long as jinwoo was their, they were immortal and eternal.
destruction is more eternal than death, but he ded......... lol. also, all monarchs having their own individual domains doesn't change much, they still died to the MC solo. meaning, their power buff is still irrelevant if they can still die even while having their past memories intact. also, if that is true, then why is the Monarch of Destruction still very strong despite not having his domain on earth like Sun Jin Woo?
@@Arjun-kz1ji The Monarchs' dimensions shouldn't give them much buff, cause they still lost to Sun Jin Woo when he came to their place. And Antares was still almost as strong as Sun Jin Woo during their 1st fight despite being on earth, which you said is far from their dimensions.
This was an awesome video, it felt like I was watching Solo levelling itself and must say I loved every bit of it, thanks buddy, I am so glued onto this show now
Just because rock beats scissors and scissor beats paper, doesn't mean rock beats paper. Therefore ranking the Monarchs based on who could beat who is flawed. I didn’t get to read the LN, but I did read the books and it was stated that based on the strength of their energy, the Destruction and Shadow Monarchs couldn't find a vessel powerful enough to contain them. That is, until the architect created the system for Jinwoo to level up and become strong enough to contain the Shadow Monarch. But ultimately the system restricted his true power and when he died and was reborn, he deleted the system and its restrictions allowing the full power to manifest. Ranking them based on total power is the only way to do this, but we still lack enough data to truly accomplish that.
From SL ragnarok you actually get a way bigger look into the monarch of steels powers and based on the lore told i actually think he would be insix place as well as having the insect monarch last as she was absolutly dogged on by sunho
I like the way how your voice sounds and the narration goes..... this is the first time that i watched your video and you got a gollower with it...... Your explanations good and you are giving your own thoughts/pov and thst great..... Keep it up bro...
I LOVED listening to you recap it all. Some truly excellent comedic bits in there! I do have one exception to your rundown, though. In one of the final chapters of the main story, Jin-Woo mentioned in exposition 'dialog' that Yogumunt was the 'cause of all this', leading me to think that, for whatever reason, however he did it, the Monarch of Transfiguration was actually the cause, no Antares.
I'm actually fascinated by this story because it's not like "haha.. he got plot armor" kinda storyline and there's actual historical evidence as to why what's happening is happening.
We get to know a lot about the monarchs in Solo Leveling Ragnarok. However, one thing i find odd is how Tarnak's origin doesn't align with the original story of the absolute being creating the monarchs. Tarnak was really weak and he was trained by someone named ammut. Ammut's training is reallly effective as he trained a normal E-rank hunter (an actual, human hunter) to be able to run faster than an A-rank hunter.
The monarch of plagues did not have a zombie army. She had a flesh puppet army filled with insects. The only monarch able to make a zombie army is the monarch of shadows who rules over death. If the creature is a undead it will never attack Jin.
The Monarchs are “Kings” but I would consider them all buffers and main damage dealers. They’re just weaker ones because they are supposed to govern levels of darkness, with ashborn governing the darkest level. Idgi bc the whole balance between rulers and monarchs was never equal. That scene where the three monarchs were fighting Jinwoo, they used corpses, and golems so he wouldn’t collect their shadows but they didn’t explain that at all. Super rushed series tbh but fun read
This video is amazing! Glad i watched this video and i understand the Anime and Manga version more. I suggest to watch the Anime or read the Manga before watching this.
now im only 153 chapters deep in the manga but it seems like a VERY big assumption that Legia was "easily" captured by the Rulers, tho specifically being targeted as the Monarch of Beginning is very on par. the fight to capture Legia might of actually been really intense, with the entire Ruler faction taking part of this. but really im only guessing atm since i got over 40 chapters left int he manga.
The shadow monarch is actually the strongest Ruler that becomes a Monarch after being betrayed by the Ruler. Thats why the Ruler ask for his forgiveness.
@ Nope only Ashborn. He was known as the Greatest Fragment of the Brilliant Light (the other Rulers are just known as Fragment of Briliant Light). If I remember the lore correctly, Ashborn was the only Ruler who did not want to kill their creator/God called the Absolute Being. Absolute Being create the Light (Rulers) and Darkness (Monarch) and both factions fought each other just for the Absolute Being’s amusement. So the Light (Rulers) decided to kill their creator to stop the endless war and the only Ruler, Ashborn oppose this plan so the other Rulers kill him. But Ashborn is too powerful and he revives and decides to join the Monarch to fight against the Rulers. That’s when he got his new title the Shadow Monarch.
Essentially, the greatest fragment of light and the Monarch of Destruction were created equally, it's just that Jinwoo has tipped the balance when he surpassed Ashborn.
why didn't Ashborn use arise on the [Absolute Being] tho? Cause like only monarchs and rulers are the only ones who have astral bodies right? Also Jin-Woo could just get the stone out of Leia so he wouldn't have to k*ll humans anymore
In a straight up 1v1 Antares is stronger than Ashborn but Ashborn beats him in a battle of armies because of shadow extraction. He can just convert Antares fallen dragons into his army
@@toqixnic5940 even if the dragons cant harm antares they can still go after his other dragons, which is a pretty big difference since now they're practically unkillable with how much mana jin woo has so they can revive endlessly
Frosty name is Sillad. Info on monarchs are much revealed in Ragnarok. They are kinda nice? and funny. Like there is a scene Antares talking about how delicious are Nagas for him. And Jin woo literally genocided alot of species in Chaos world. And most monarchs care about their people.
Very entertaining with this meticulous explanation. Subscribed. On a side note,. I think the only weak elements of SL plot were the romance and somehow abrupt ending that I thought was conditioned for a sequel since we got the bonus chapters and some unexplained things like SJW's shadow army that he get back again even in a world without gates.
I think the absolute being is the strongest it is stated that he is one of the outversal gods Also I think he didn't even try to fight back , he created the goddam universe so he could he can easily clap the rulers but didn't also he give asborn the powers which are used by jin woo, means he is no doubt the strongest
While most of the list makes sence i think there is major flaw in the video, Antares was the first monarch and the strongest as well(exept jin woo). The reason why the monarchs and rulers came to fear Ashborn was NOT because of his individual strength, but because of his infinite army. During the chapters where Ashborn is explaining the backstory to jin woo he explains that as war continues his army will increase, therefore tipping the scale in his favor. Also in the same chapter, i think 163 he explains that just in raw strength alone Antares was above him.
Wait, I"m confused. You said Ashborne was a messenger/ruler and the creator gave him a special gift power, what was it? The power to infinitely level up? But how come Jinwoo is a monarch and not a messenger/ruler? Or were the messengers, monarchs, rulers were the same in the beginning?????
As an answer to your question at the end of the video. I would say he could indeed take on and win against most isekai characters, His biggest isekai roadblock would be full powered LN Rimuru as of current he is probably the strongest Isekai character. Though there are other characters that aren't isekai that Jin woo would hard lose to. Like say Misogi Kumagawa from Medaka Box. Gag anime characters like Doraemon would also be out of the Question. At present other than Rimuru and while strictly naming isekai characters, I think Jin Woo mops the floor with most of them.
In my personal opinion I think the frost monarch should be above the beast monarch, while the frost monarch may not be as durable as Rakan, he seems to be way more skilled and resourceful as a fighter, being able to 1v1 Jin Woo's dad and avoid his attacks, freeze all Jin Woo shadows for a considerable ammount of time, create an army of frost giants and most impressive of all, he almost killed Jin Woo's dad, who needed to get saved by an awakaned Igris, I definetly think the frost monarch was the most formidable one in the deadlock against Sung Jin Woo. Rakan on the other hand against both Jin Woo and his dad was always trying to attack them from behind while the frost monarch was taking the front and being the main target/fighter.
This opinion is lit, bro 🔥! I just think Rakan is stronger 'cause, y'know, he fought alongside Baran against Ashborn. I mean, Antares could've picked the Frost Monarch, but why Rakan? Plus, that guy is a wussy! And I like that at least the Frost Monarch stands his ground, even when Rakan runs away
@@QuoteThemAnime I mean there is a few points to be made here, if you're trying to imply that Rakan is stronger bcs he was chosen to fight against Ashborn instead of the frost monarch then the same logic could be applied to Antares himself, he could have taken the matters into his own hands, but he didnt. Does that mean Rakan is stronger than Antares? Absolutely not. You see, the reason I think Antares didnt fought against Ashborn himself together with Baran is the same reason why I think the frost monarch wasnt there: there was a war going on, the rulers and the monarchs were in a battle against each other, Antares can't simply send all the most powerful troops of monsters and monarchs to ambush Ashborn otherwise they will lose against the rulers and their army, on other hand he couldnt send weak monarchs like the plague monarch to ambush Ashborn bcs the ambush would surely fail, so as I interpret the events that happened Antares had to manage the the placements of the monarchs and their troops, he sent Baran and the demons, who were an extremely powerful race of monsters, together with Rakan and the beasts who may not be some of the strongest but also are not one of the weakest while Antares, the frost monarch and the remaining monarchs were fighting against the rulers and their army, and we actually do know the elfs are some of the strongest races of monsters as they were feared enought to start to get called Hyakki/Ice slayers by the hunters. Maybe if Legia didnt got captured the Frost monarch would also go to ambush Ashborn but since he did the monarchs were on a tough spot, so while I do understand your reasoning, I don't think thats necessarily true, otherwise Baran and Rakan could be considered stronger than Antares since he ordered them to ambush Ashborn instead of taking part on it. But I do agree with most of your ranking, for me It goes: 1:Ashborn, Monarch of Shadows 2:Antares, Monarch of destruction 3:Baran, Monarch of White Flames 4:???, Monarch of Frost 5: Rakan, Monarch of Beasts 6:Legia, Monarch of Beginnings 7:Tarnak, Monarch of Iron Body 8:Queresha, Monarch of Plagues 9:Yogumunt, Monarch of Transfiguration.
i justy discovered solo leveling last monday and i watch the anime after i watch the anime i got so hook and decide to read the manwha and boyyy i finish it in 1 day it is so addicting and i love beru the mostt
Damn good catch man Thank you for noticing this. I can’t believe we missed this. It’s not that deep tho bro, like we’re all people of color on the team. Our editor just used the matching stock photos we had for the child being scolded (trouble children) and the other child behaving while going to school (well-behaved kids) and had no ill intent on making this about color. So truly unintentional but damnnn, we shall strive to not let it happen again.
all monarchs and rulers can open portals or Gates in the series their dimensional beings that were created to destroy its just one skill they have in common (probably a few more skills in common that i may have forgotten)
No, bro, Bellion can't be a Ruler because Rulers can't become shadows, this is because 'Monarchs and Rulers have astral bodies that are destroyed upon death, so they can't be turned into shadows' - as explained by Legia, the Monarch of the Beginning. Also, I think Bellion is one of the soldiers of the Rulers, and those guys can indeed be turned into shadows
@@QuoteThemAnime so he's just very op like he's powers is like a lower or mid monarch? Like stronger than the other monarch cuz as long as sjw is alive or have mana he can fight for a very long time possible defeating the other weaker monarchs
really weird thing, how can a non ruler/monarch be as strong as monarchs. kinda breaks the setting a bit. it would make sense if Antares also had the same underling, a non-monarch that is as strong as monarchs, to make it that only the strongest Ruler or Monarch has an underling that strong....... but he doesn't.
@@thepieofyourlife4799 Its better explained in the LN. basically SJW still has the “system” remember all the things from the system came from Ashborns power. He still has no limit and gets stronger. Just like The Rulers were able to kill the absolute being. Why is it confusing to see a Monarchs being become stronger than a monarch especially knowing that Ashborns power draws out their best when risen and then they gain more strength as their king gains it.
Funny the entire story didn't fleshed out the MC's dad. Would be interesting to see how he scales against the top hunters. The guy survived in a dungeon for who knows how long, and even man handled a top tier hunter like its Tyson vs a kid.
Does the Absolute Being, Rulers, and Monarchs Level UP too? I know the title and it's solo leveling and I don't read the manwha if the architect created the system I'm so confused on the powerscale of this manwha
He did say that in the beginning of the video that Ashborn was the only Ruler who didn't want to kill their father & they killed Ashborn because of thag. But he was revived as the shadow Monarch.
The rulers killing the Absolute Being is like the Olympians killing the Titans in greek mythology

So the Light (Rulers) decided to kill their creator to stop the endless war and the only Ruler, Ashborn oppose this plan so the other Rulers kill him.
But Ashborn is too powerful and he revives and decides to join the Monarch to fight against the Rulers. That’s when he got his new title the Shadow Monarch.
@@tristan4893 Oh I see. Thx.
@@tristan4893great explanation I read the entire manga and still was a bit confused
ahn- tar - ees
Antares is the brightest star in the constellation of Scorpius
Essentially, the greatest fragment of light and the Monarch of Destruction were created equally, it's just that Jinwoo has tipped the balance when he surpassed Ashborn.
Guys i just realised that thanks to the epilogs jinwoo canonically has crazy dad lore
Legia = legion and the theory you said about controlling time that’s correct that’s why his title is “monarch of the beginning” the new era..
why didn't Ashborn use arise on the [Absolute Being] tho?
Cause like only monarchs and rulers are the only ones who have astral bodies right?
Also Jin-Woo could just get the stone out of Leia so he wouldn't have to k*ll humans anymore
In a straight up 1v1 Antares is stronger than Ashborn but Ashborn beats him in a battle of armies because of shadow extraction. He can just convert Antares fallen dragons into his army
Even if SJN summoned Antares dragon it wouldn't make much difference since his immune to fire and their strength is not even a threat to him
@@toqixnic5940 even if the dragons cant harm antares they can still go after his other dragons, which is a pretty big difference since now they're practically unkillable with how much mana jin woo has so they can revive endlessly
Frosty name is Sillad.
Info on monarchs are much revealed in Ragnarok.
They are kinda nice? and funny.
Like there is a scene Antares talking about how delicious are Nagas for him.
And Jin woo literally genocided alot of species in Chaos world.
And most monarchs care about their people.
Very entertaining with this meticulous explanation. Subscribed.
On a side note,. I think the only weak elements of SL plot were the romance and somehow abrupt ending that I thought was conditioned for a sequel since we got the bonus chapters and
some unexplained things like SJW's shadow army that he get back again even in a world without gates.
Jinwoo is easily one of the strongest up there with Goku, Rimuru and more. And I live for this lineup of god tier characters in the anime world.
I think the absolute being is the strongest it is stated that he is one of the outversal gods
Also I think he didn't even try to fight back , he created the goddam universe so he could he can easily clap the rulers but didn't also he give asborn the powers which are used by jin woo, means he is no doubt the strongest
While most of the list makes sence i think there is major flaw in the video, Antares was the first monarch and the strongest as well(exept jin woo). The reason why the monarchs and rulers came to fear Ashborn was NOT because of his individual strength, but because of his infinite army. During the chapters where Ashborn is explaining the backstory to jin woo he explains that as war continues his army will increase, therefore tipping the scale in his favor. Also in the same chapter, i think 163 he explains that just in raw strength alone Antares was above him.
Antares rank 1 drip. dude had plate armor looking like buisiness suit
Wait, I"m confused. You said Ashborne was a messenger/ruler and the creator gave him a special gift power, what was it? The power to infinitely level up? But how come Jinwoo is a monarch and not a messenger/ruler? Or were the messengers, monarchs, rulers were the same in the beginning?????
Dude first of all. GREAT VIDEO🎉. 👍Kudos.
And secondly, How much time did it took to edit whole video.? 😅
Best of luck for future videos bud. 🍀
Thanks man appreciate you, a couple weeks
As an answer to your question at the end of the video. I would say he could indeed take on and win against most isekai characters, His biggest isekai roadblock would be full powered LN Rimuru as of current he is probably the strongest Isekai character. Though there are other characters that aren't isekai that Jin woo would hard lose to. Like say Misogi Kumagawa from Medaka Box. Gag anime characters like Doraemon would also be out of the Question. At present other than Rimuru and while strictly naming isekai characters, I think Jin Woo mops the floor with most of them.
Seems like a cool vid, are there any spoilers beyond current anime release ?
Yogiri Takatou: shine
can end all of it
Bro made me rethink my life at 2:37
Monarch of steel was born as goblin monster and was trained by monster ammut and then become king of all monsters -in solo levelling ragnarok
Daaaamn, that's lit info bruh, Imma give you some massive bro fist for that 👊
nice editing btw bro, sad u only have less than 10k subs
great video, very well explained
Thanks, bro! I appreciate it!
did u know no one else sayed any thing
Imagine jin woo can actually make other monarchs became shadows.
I was imagining the same thing back when reading the manhwa... I swear that'll be craaaaazy bro
Ashborne really went out and said "i am you" 😂
And imagine how many years he'd been waiting to say that 🤣
*isekai characters*
*that one isekai dude that is basically the end of everything*
-sure lets see how Jinwoo would fare against him
In my personal opinion I think the frost monarch should be above the beast monarch, while the frost monarch may not be as durable as Rakan, he seems to be way more skilled and resourceful as a fighter, being able to 1v1 Jin Woo's dad and avoid his attacks, freeze all Jin Woo shadows for a considerable ammount of time, create an army of frost giants and most impressive of all, he almost killed Jin Woo's dad, who needed to get saved by an awakaned Igris, I definetly think the frost monarch was the most formidable one in the deadlock against Sung Jin Woo. Rakan on the other hand against both Jin Woo and his dad was always trying to attack them from behind while the frost monarch was taking the front and being the main target/fighter.
This opinion is lit, bro 🔥! I just think Rakan is stronger 'cause, y'know, he fought alongside Baran against Ashborn. I mean, Antares could've picked the Frost Monarch, but why Rakan? Plus, that guy is a wussy! And I like that at least the Frost Monarch stands his ground, even when Rakan runs away
@@QuoteThemAnime I mean there is a few points to be made here, if you're trying to imply that Rakan is stronger bcs he was chosen to fight against Ashborn instead of the frost monarch then the same logic could be applied to Antares himself, he could have taken the matters into his own hands, but he didnt. Does that mean Rakan is stronger than Antares? Absolutely not. You see, the reason I think Antares didnt fought against Ashborn himself together with Baran is the same reason why I think the frost monarch wasnt there: there was a war going on, the rulers and the monarchs were in a battle against each other, Antares can't simply send all the most powerful troops of monsters and monarchs to ambush Ashborn otherwise they will lose against the rulers and their army, on other hand he couldnt send weak monarchs like the plague monarch to ambush Ashborn bcs the ambush would surely fail, so as I interpret the events that happened Antares had to manage the the placements of the monarchs and their troops, he sent Baran and the demons, who were an extremely powerful race of monsters, together with Rakan and the beasts who may not be some of the strongest but also are not one of the weakest while Antares, the frost monarch and the remaining monarchs were fighting against the rulers and their army, and we actually do know the elfs are some of the strongest races of monsters as they were feared enought to start to get called Hyakki/Ice slayers by the hunters. Maybe if Legia didnt got captured the Frost monarch would also go to ambush Ashborn but since he did the monarchs were on a tough spot, so while I do understand your reasoning, I don't think thats necessarily true, otherwise Baran and Rakan could be considered stronger than Antares since he ordered them to ambush Ashborn instead of taking part on it.
But I do agree with most of your ranking, for me It goes:
1:Ashborn, Monarch of Shadows
2:Antares, Monarch of destruction
3:Baran, Monarch of White Flames
4:???, Monarch of Frost
5: Rakan, Monarch of Beasts
6:Legia, Monarch of Beginnings
7:Tarnak, Monarch of Iron Body
8:Queresha, Monarch of Plagues
9:Yogumunt, Monarch of Transfiguration.
banger manhwa, read it in just 2 days.... thats how captivating this story was
i justy discovered solo leveling last monday and i watch the anime after i watch the anime i got so hook and decide to read the manwha and boyyy i finish it in 1 day it is so addicting and i love beru the mostt
bro really used blck kid for bad and white kid for good
Let me see where, give me timestamp
@@QuoteThemAnime I think he means at 00:40
Thanks for that
Damn good catch man Thank you for noticing this. I can’t believe we missed this. It’s not that deep tho bro, like we’re all people of color on the team. Our editor just used the matching stock photos we had for the child being scolded (trouble children) and the other child behaving while going to school (well-behaved kids) and had no ill intent on making this about color. So truly unintentional but damnnn, we shall strive to not let it happen again.
@@QuoteThemAnime I didn’t think it was a big deal. I thought it was funny
Edit: I’m blacker than blind man’s dream too so 🤷🏿♂️
Absolute being got killed by his creation? Doesn't sounded absolute to me.
Great vid
Appreciate it, bro!
I cant wait for like a movie on solo leveling i bet it will be so cool
all monarchs and rulers can open portals or Gates in the series their dimensional beings that were created to destroy its just one skill they have in common (probably a few more skills in common that i may have forgotten)
Im just guessing is bellion a ruler like ashborn but was the stongest when shborn summoned the shadow?
No, bro, Bellion can't be a Ruler because Rulers can't become shadows, this is because 'Monarchs and Rulers have astral bodies that are destroyed upon death, so they can't be turned into shadows' - as explained by Legia, the Monarch of the Beginning. Also, I think Bellion is one of the soldiers of the Rulers, and those guys can indeed be turned into shadows
@@QuoteThemAnime so he's just very op like he's powers is like a lower or mid monarch? Like stronger than the other monarch cuz as long as sjw is alive or have mana he can fight for a very long time possible defeating the other weaker monarchs
really weird thing, how can a non ruler/monarch be as strong as monarchs. kinda breaks the setting a bit.
it would make sense if Antares also had the same underling, a non-monarch that is as strong as monarchs, to make it that only the strongest Ruler or Monarch has an underling that strong....... but he doesn't.
He was born from some fruit if I remember
@@thepieofyourlife4799 Its better explained in the LN. basically SJW still has the “system” remember all the things from the system came from Ashborns power. He still has no limit and gets stronger. Just like The Rulers were able to kill the absolute being. Why is it confusing to see a Monarchs being become stronger than a monarch especially knowing that Ashborns power draws out their best when risen and then they gain more strength as their king gains it.
Rulers, Sovereigns, Monarchs, Messengers…. I got confused on who was actually what lol
Balance of power means they are 9 vs 9 but when the king of giants captured it became 8 vs 9 .that is why balance collapsed
‘These kids made a plan to kill their dad’ whattttt???
Funny the entire story didn't fleshed out the MC's dad. Would be interesting to see how he scales against the top hunters.
The guy survived in a dungeon for who knows how long, and even man handled a top tier hunter like its Tyson vs a kid.
Does the Absolute Being, Rulers, and Monarchs Level UP too? I know the title and it's solo leveling and I don't read the manwha if the architect created the system I'm so confused on the powerscale of this manwha
you unintentionally explained the entire story in just twenty five minutes
Lmao 🤣
the absolute being is a megalomaniac who is happy watching his creation killing each other.
i have a different list I'm ngl
ice monarach power was getting overpowered by a pre full potiential unlocked beru
Frost Monarch was also terrified of Igris 🤣
I want to see a vs battle between Sung Jin-Woo and Tenjou Yuuya
so this show is basically one punch man
There are some OPM references bruh, especially in the last part of the Manhwa
@@QuoteThemAnime bro you know free Manhwa that I can download?,
I wouldn’t say one punch man per say. He almost dies in season 1 like first thing. He also has to try a couple times to overcome certain challenges.
I'm Just listening to this and getting this "why do this sound familiar"?
What other isekai's should i watch? I understand nothing is close to how ridiculous this is but pls gimme something to watch
The beginning after the end is getting an anime soon but you could read it before it drops
Tensei no slime
The way you say Antares is crazy
5:01 But why the rulers told that giant to "kill the humans" is they want to save the Earth? Huh?
Bru ashborn was not a monarch he was a ruler then turn into a monarch
He did say that in the beginning of the video that Ashborn was the only Ruler who didn't want to kill their father & they killed Ashborn because of thag. But he was revived as the shadow Monarch.
