In the manhwa, one of the prisoners was faking his death. Jinwoo knows it and brought him to the boss area. Let the prisoner fight the boss goblin and it’s horde while watching and letting him die. It’s one satisfying thing to read and shows the “dark” path he was leading to.
I think they changed it 😢😢😢
Yeah they cut it… It’s a shame cause it depicts how ruthless he was becoming, but I guess they need to cut scenes to fit everything into the anime.
@argetlam9958 I think it has to do with the age rating.
When I saw the episode, i douted myself and went to the manhwa to make sure I didn't like that the took that off at all.
@@shadee24yeah I agree it was such a nice scene for Jin-woo, shows how cold and ruthless he’s getting but I guess it would’ve been too far just hope they leave in the way he deals with trash on the streets wink wink XD
I think not adapting execution scene is very good decision, Sung Jin-Woo in Manhwa and even Novel was too dynamic character, the last time he felt compelled to kill in order to save his life, which he could not accept until the end, and literally days later executes a prisoner deeming him unworthy of life? It doesn't make much sense because the loss of emotion is gradual as he himself says, by this point he should not yet be a cold-blooded killer and follow the "Kill or be Killed" philosophy. Anime makes his change of character not so sudden and edgy. But that's my opinion, I know many of you would like to see him being badass by throwing the prisoner to the boss room, but I think anime did it better for the consistency.
Jinwoo's murderous intent looks like domain expension🤣
But it acts like conquerer’s haki haha
A-1 is so fire for bringing so much life to this
@@Salvador-312genjutsu too
yeah lowkey looked like gojo's domain expansion in s1 with the camera angles and all
Minor spelling mistake
[Insert blinding meme]
And the eyes made me remember that sasuke scene from the War Declaration arc in naruto.
the goku reference 7:16 when he was getting warmed up to fight broly is sick,Rest in peace Akira Toriyama the creator of Dragon ball and father of all mangas 🙏
Father of Shonen but I'll allow it tho 😂😂
@@HeavenlyDemonicEmperor He is tho.
@@HeavenlyDemonicEmperorhe was just the GOAT cuz dbz brought so much attention to anime than any show ever
@Roger-mg7ug I know but that's why I said Father of Shonen not Mangas
@@HeavenlyDemonicEmperor he also got rid of the stigma around reading mangas which extended the reach of mangas over japan and the world
The studio is edging us readers with the foreshadowing 😭😩
Yeah fore shadowing fr fr
Can't wait!!!
fore"shadow"
Bro the next two episodes are going to POP OFF spoiler warning⚠️
Job change time, he will probably beat igris next ep and the one after that he has to survive
@@SuperThaxter do they date in the LN? Cuz in the manhwa she just says she is going retire and go back to her hometown.
Domain expansion ❌
Drip Expansion ✅

@@RyoKenWasHereFeelLucky Yeah your profile picture
@@justsomeguy1888at least his pfp aint anime
@@repple2586Your point being...?
So definitely the most interesting part that was cut from this episode, after the whole fight and Jinwoo telling Jiwoo and Song to leave, he actually waits there, and we find out that one of the convicts is still alive and playing dead, but Jinwoo with his heightened senses knows this. He walks up to the convist telling him he knows he's still alive and drags him with him to the boss dungeon, where he emotionlessly throws him inside to fight the boss all by himself, and Jinwoo just watches from a distance seeing the convict get massacred while thinking "Kang Taeshik was scum, but he was right about one thing, you don't deserve to live either". It was a big move that they cut this part out. I think its because it makes Jinwoo way too ruthless, but I wish they kept it. The convicts truly didn't deserve to live.
Same I think they are removing the wrong scenes from the show. I mean they also cut out the scene where song ( that old man ) was thinking about how weak and afraid ju hee has become ( this scene was important for what coming up next in the starting of the episode)
I'm upset they cut this out; things like that are insanely important for character development, and I don't really think it makes the show any "darker" than it is. He's going down that path clearly already, and there's already blood/decapitation/etc.. Sad to see they got rid of such an important moment of development. Going to have to read it.
@@subparptguys it’s probably going to be next episode 😂 stop tripping
@@17dwestbrook looking back at it now, it was NOT in the next episode
@@fallenstoryteller2143 oh I know 😂😂😂
Jinwoo did not do that in the manwha. The hops before he uses his dash skill to cut Kang. Was a cool addition.
Is for the honor of akira toriyima😌
@@zayssha Proof?
akira toriyam died just before they released the recent episode
@@Alexandthenewwing lmao
@@espe_2jz614 Search up SEASONAL anime, it'll give you all the info you need. Plus, did we just forget that Solo Leveling got delayed by 1 year for polishing?
the foreSHADOWING is really strong in this episode 😂
AYOO CHILL no need to spoil the show now 🤣
Ayyyy
even tho i only watch the anime i feel like ur talking about some sort of that domain type thin sung did, im prob wrong
@@Darur1308nope it's the sentence kang says after he dies
@@abhinav7955 oh the stare back at you part. lol I’m excited
I think the reason why Jinwoo just "watched" Song fight against Kang was because he was gathering information on what Kang can do? Since Jinwoo was weak before his second awakening, he often observed the fights in the dungeon and that made him very perceptive ig?
Jinwoo is still trying to lay low and hide his skills. He doesn't want any attention on him and Song offered to fight.
Thank you so much for pointing that out! Knew I was forgetting something@@Au_Ra804
This episode was a W. That Goku reference gave me chills
The timing of that being in this episode is insane, huge respect to A1 Pictures.
It's just a generic exercise athletes do to loosen up muscles
why is everyone saying thats a goku reference lmao. track stars and athletes do that very often
@@sonandheir13 because it is. Thats anime culture. Goku warm ups is literally a thing if you didnt know, google it. Obviously its a basic warmup,but, IN ANIME, Goku made it iconic. So whenever you see it IN ANIME, yes, its a goku reference
@@sonandheir13because in the manga there is not that.. a1 added it since akira died the 1st of march.. so they added it
His murders intent is a mix between domain expansion and genjutsu 😂
if someone thinking why jinwoo standby watching. it is because in fight you want to study your opponent first. and jinwoo knows he can jump in anytime. so thats why he just was observing and let mr. song do the work.
the fact that were not even in the main plot yet , and he still doesnt have his main ability. The people that dont really like the anime right now will come back for sure.
Yeah, all the boring episodes are done. now main plot begins😁😁
You guys were wondering why Jin Woo let Mr. Song fought Tae Sik instead of stepping in immediately were all explained in the manhwa. You guys should read it, a lot of minor important details are left out but the episode is still well made and sticks with the source material.
In the anime when Kim was saying his last words to Jinwoo and Jinwoo said "How else can I keep blaming you?!"; in the manhwa the translation was "you must stay alive so that I can hate you". I feel like the wording in the manhwa has more of an impact.
(Also, in the light novel Jinwoo does not actually get to have any last words with Kim because by the time he finds him after fighting Kang, Kim has already passed).
In the manhwa, one of the prisoners survived by playing dead. Jinwoo then brings him to the boss room and feeds him to the goblins. They definitely dialed it down in the show.
You guys have some of the best post-episode discussion out of all anime reaction channels
Didn't know Brig also level up like Jinwoo. He looks different🫦
hes so cuteee
Do yourselves a favor....understand that Jinwoo always knows what hes doing and dont question it 😂
4:53 the simultanious *get into focus mode* was perfectly timed lol
Yea I noticed that too haha that shit made me giggle
cool episode.. in the manhwa the last criminal was still alived and was adamantly demanding jinwoo to take him out of the dungeon.. jinwoo knew of what he did to the girl who killed herself.. so he dragged that criminal and threw him where the hobgoblins where at and they torn him apart and ate him :D .. yup he got the runestone as loot so he got stealth now.. :) A rank monsters and humans are different because of intelligence..
Caught a nice W then had peak solo leveling 😮💨🥇
Congrats man!
Thats fire, congrats on the win to you both!
Off topic, but there's a hole forming in your sock 🙃😂
As to how he stole his ability, it wasn't a Jinwoo exclusive thing. It was a rune. Different runes can be found in different dungeons and can grant different abilities. The assassin dude got that ability through the rune. By killing a person, anyone that is a hunter can steal their rune and use it for themselves.
The reason he could defeat Cerberus is because he has a title that gives him buff against certain type of enemies, and even then he was on the verge of death.
Yes, 40% all stats buff against beast type monsters
Also he was debuffing cerberus
@@thelegacyofgaming2928 the effects didn't work (it was shown in the ep). He defeated it just by stabbing the eye of two of the heads (when the monster was in skill cooldown).
@@Gheniel_ Its not just that. he has more power the lower his health goes. Then the dagger had its effects too. He was severely buffed against that B rank monster
Funny to see how the sitting changed along the episode XD
Looking back, Kang was on point
Ooooh, the shining eyes era has started! Now he'll have the contrast of darkness and shining eyes in every battle.
Coolness overload
(so sad they didnt adapt the death of the last convict, getting mauled by the goblings... because Jinwoo took him there)
Carters note on how the fight is woven in with the story is exactly my idea of a good battle shounen, it tells the story thru battles but not just any kind of empty fight just to fight.
Naruto, Bleach, DBZ, all these big shounens are great because their stories are told thru philosophies of battle, of death and life, on the purpose of life, the tension gives the emotional spectrum of the situation and between those that participate in it.
I would even say that is why One Punch Man works despite being a pure peak power fantasy, most fails and stays mediocre because they forget to tell a story.
honestly for the part at the end i liked the manhwa translation more jinwoo said "if i told you i am a hunter who can get stronger... how strong do you think i will get?" and kang tae shik replied something along the lines"You will get as strong as your shadow's depth in the dark"
As a manhwa reader I’m sad they cut out the dungeon boss part with jinwoo
I think after this episode Jinwoo is now the top B rank (or barely an A rank). Many of yall don't take into account that he had to use full recovery to beat Kang, who was fighting Jinwoo after he had already fought everyone else in the dungeon too.
5-5:40 Jinwoo was always going to interfere if Sung was in real trouble, he's seen him fight many times before. What Jinwoo was doing though, is that he was assessing the situation, identifying the enemy's attack patterns and speed etc. He's always been an analytic before he was ever a fighter.
That being said, he may have also been secretly wishing that the enemy was a C ranker and that Sung + Joohee can take him out alone without revealing himself to anyone, but that doesnt mean he wasn't going to intervene when things got out of hand, he even let Sung do his close range magic attack (because again, he knows how Sung fights and that he's a fire mage from episode 1 and raiding with him), and he needed to be sure that when he went in to fight, that he was in it to win.
I wish they kept the part where jinwoo uses one of the prisoners to bait the boss and leaves him there to die . That really made me love him more.
I was waiting for the scene when Jinwoo threw one of the prisoners to a swarm of beasts in the dungeon when he caught one of them was pretending to be dead but it was cut. It was totally a badass scene that show how sadistic Jinwoo actually is lol
remember he still have the purpose to heal his mother so he might be losing feelings but still have something for the family
i was kinda hoping purple megumi would have more screen time but oh well jinwoo got a bigger inventory
The difference between each rank is very big, for ex: An A rank hunter is 10× stronger than a B rank hunter. So Jinwoo was not exactly being humble.
I haven’t read the manga, but @brigandrus ‘s theory of becoming chained to the system and might have to breakout sounds like a sick story line, hope it actually goes that way 😮
In manhwa Jinwo says his decision to put more pts into "sense stats" paid off as we can now fight invisible foe.
I know people say the story isn't deep, but you can have your expectations pretty high on this whole System and Gate thing because it's going to be pretty complex.
How is both complex when it's pretty straight forward what they are (you could already guessed it at this stage) and by the mid point of the story, they're both forgotten pretty quickly in favor of the you know what.
im so glad you guys are loving this show fr
I think he let mr.song fight is bc he respects him as a hunter and swordsmen. If song got awakened as a physical hunter he would be an s-class swordsman hunter easily, so he figured song had a chance in a sword fight.
The title! 🤣
Yeah Korean names are hard to remember. All Korean names are 2 syllables and all Korean surnames are 1 syllable. So they sound far less distinct especially if you aren't used to Korean.
Apparently jinwoo jumping like goku was added in the anime, this wasn't in the manhwa, A1 PICTURES coincidentally may have played a tribute to both akira and his greatest creation that is GOKU❤
Just goated
Rip Akira Toryama
How'd they animate it so fast
Such an epic move
@@Thatscrazybro1lexactly no way they animated it that fast must of been animated like that before he passed
Rip Akira
I can't wait for Jinwoo to meet Igris and say "ARISE" 🥶
The arise scene will not be in season 1
16:50 to defeat an A rank monster you need at least 4 or 5 A rank hunters, it's just that Sung Jinwoo is an anomaly with multiple active skills and passive skills. In this world skills are VERY rare, this stealth of the purple dude can be noticed by someone stronger cuz they have more magic sensitivity, so this ability is not S rank level, it's just high B to low A rank ability, Sung jinwoo will have to use it wisely, cuz agaisnt sensitive enemies it doesn't work properly as it should.
Megumi should summon Mahogara.
Domain Expansion: Murderous Intent
jinwoo slams mahoraga with just a knife
Mahoraga be like holy sh*t it's too easy I'll adopt in seconds 😂😂@@McWolff-wd7xj
The little goku warm up he did before the fight was beautiful. Rip Akira 🙏🕊️
Brig got me blushing 🔥🥵
the visuals on this series are next level of cool
Jinwoo vs Megumi has me on the floooooor. That is exactly what I thought when I saw Taeshik too 😭😂
THATS JUST 1% OFF HIS STRENGTH, BE PATIENT, WAIT UNTIL U GUYS SEE JINWO TRUE STRENGTH, ARISEEEEE 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
The episode is already out and watched so it's not a spoiler but a part of this episode they didn't show so here's one amazing thing about this episode's arc in manhwa that they didn't show in here thou it was merely for seconds but one of the prisoner was alive and acting dead and jinwoo knew it all along and when jinwoo was about to get in to kill the boss of the dungeon he grabbed and took him in along with him to suffer as they made someone's daughter suffer and jinwoo couldn't ignore that fact and he let the monsters kill the prisoner and then he finished the dungeon it was so so cool and made me admire jinwoo so much!🥺❤️
I just know every manhwa reader GRINNED when they saw the eyes abyss
even though it wasn't played this episode i was still thinking of Dark Aria.
Jinwo literly use megumi domain again himself but the complete version
Love how the beginning of the vid yall are all relaxed and sitting back an some minutes later yall are sitting up at the edge of your seats. Also the story gets so much deeper and better as it goes on i cant wait
ok, but brig not wearing a cap? hot!😭❤
20/10 episode from a guy that was lowkey hating on some of the previous episodes. Great reaction too as always
It was a way to honor Akira Toriyama. ❤
Megumi should have said that: With this treasure, I SUMMON...
Megumis' voice actor is same as meruem(hxh) , rui (demon slayer) tsukki ( haikyu)
And inumaki
10:20
"I wonder if they did that goku thing as an omen" xD I think he meant homage
Everyone is waiting for the next arc. Which everyone is waiting for 😈
Purple Megumi was cold I was sad that he gone and his ability was cool
can't wait for the "chimera arc" lol
Aww they dont show him feeding that one prisoner to the goblin😂😂
Murderous intent is still only level 1 btw and still so OP😂😂😂
I cant wait yo see where things go with Juhee and Jinwoo
Spoiler warning:
You wont really see her again after like next episode for the rest of the anime
@@nerevarchthn6860 yeah

unless they change it a bit just to give her some nice moments.
Spoiler:
She gets yeeted out of the story after this
I want you to see PSYCHO-PASS.
"Shinsekaiyori"is also more interesting, but it has a lot of quirks and many scenes that are difficult to understand. However, I recommend.
1 A rank boss needs like at least about 5 A rank hunters
Solo is just going to get better this story is special I’m telling you. ARISE GONNA BE LIT.
The goku warmup was a nice tribute to goat Akira. For the people wondering how it was animated so fast... im sure they had animated the episode already but went back and reanimated that part
Ghost of tsushima is coming to pc and the shogun show is a masterpiece. This combo is so good
I need you to post your reaction to Game of Thrones more often, I love your reaction, I'm anxious and I want to see how you'll react as the seasons go by, I can't wait
Yeah.. the goku reference was made by a1 since in the manga there is no trace of him doing that.. and yeah they had the time to do that since akira actually died the 1st of march
The forShadowing is great this ep
Considering when they were working on this episode it's not likely related to Akira's passing.
A-1 Pictures the goat unlimited budget!!🔥🔥
with each week i see these reactions i just wish yall were also watching frieren. this into frieren ever Friday is great
I don't remember that healer girl have such a large role🤔. Or are they going in a different route?
This episode changes something from the source material that I think they shouldn't have changed because it says a lot about Jinwoo's character development. (read below)
p.s. Maybe they'll show it in the next episode, but I'm pretty sure not.
Actually, one of the prisoners was just pretending to be dead. After Jinwoo beat the assassin, he called out the prisoner and thought he was being saved, but Jinwoo brought that prisoner inside the boss room and let the goblin and other monsters inside kill him. Jinwoo punished the guy for assaulting the daughter of the man who paid the assassin. In this episode, Jinwoo entered the boss room alone, but in the source material, they entered together and threw the prisoner to the monsters.
They cut the scene where Jinwoo brought 1 of the prisoners inside the boss room.😭😭
You say the story isn’t that deep but it becomes a lot more complex moving forward, when this season is over I definitely recommend reading the manhwa!
Maybe you guys should try shanrin-la frontier, that just like this series but more funny 😂
A-rank hunters are not above A-rank bosses. In solo leveling hunter ranking scales lower than dungeon and monster ranking. 1 S-rank and a few A-rank hunters are required to finish A-rank dungeons, and multiple S-rank hunters and/or a National level hunter is required to finish an S-rank dungeon (These are global level disasters, a lot of em go unfinished and have dungeon breaks, Jeju Island is inhabitable today, and an S-rank dungeon destroyed most of the western US). So S-rank bosses are stronger than S-rank hunters, and same goes for all the ranks below.
Bruh they just destroy the one of the best moments on the manhawa
For a second I thought there was a new member of the group but then I realized that’s Brig 😭
But episode 11 and 12 bout to be even more insane bro
That was a beautiful tribute to the Akira
We're almost at the [ARISE] boizzzz
It's gonna be in season 2
It's gonna be in season 2
It will be like the last ep of this cour....
If it's not in the last ep I'm gonna protest /jk
The last 5 or 6 episodes Jin woo has done everything in his power to keep this power secret and has said at several times he doesnt want to reveal his power to anyone... But yet people are confused to why jin woo isnt jumping right in to reveal his secret before he absolutely has too 🤣🤣🤣
great vid y'all! The warmup was definitely not in the manhwa. Was a neat addition in honour of Akira Toriyama!
Anyway, as a manhwa reader, all the prelude had finished and imo everything actually starts here.
Brace yourselves for this amazing masterpiece!
It was kinda sad they didn't add the scene where one of the prisoners was stil alive and jinwoo toss him into a hoard of monster's
ForeSHADOWING was 🔥
When people finally find out what those eyes were...
It’s funny that you guys are calling him Megumi but his voice actor is the same guy who does Inumaki in jjk ✨
And this ain't even the main plot yet lmao...I'm pretty sure us SL fans say this a lot but it's true, this animation it's Just taking time to get there😅
cant beleive they left out the scene at the end where jin woo finds the prisoner who was faking his death
fr i was so sad to see they didnt add it
It showed jinwoo’s change in demeanor too. Letting the goblins devour the prisoner.
@@dackj82 yea so true in the ep he just says his emotions died but in the manwha he shows it
that goku reference was probably an gratitude for the recently deceased creator of dragon ball
Guys , you need to react to Blue Lock …like SERIOUSLY !!
