My goat forever!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Will never forget the first time i read this in my room hunched over my table at 3am just straight up binging up until the jeju arc in 2020, that memory is so vivid and left such an impression on me it was so good… def one of the reasons that made me love and venture more on reading more korean shounen(?) works :’) also made me believe that wow always read the webnovels first bc it will always be the best version of the story lol the Og even It isnt the most perfect manhwa; character wise (thought the novel fleshed it out much more better) but it does its job damn well for the overpowered mc trope. One of the best definitely! Love jinwoo’s relationship with his shadow soldiers and the shadow soldier’s lil antics is jsut adorable. Truly the highlight of the story. My only gripe is the romance and how poorly written the women are in the story lmao. Jinwoo’s chemistry with hae in was close to none. Itd have been better if he ended up with johee bc at least the history together is there. It’d make the romance flow more seamlessly too. Hae in’s character and attraction doesnt go and develop far other than bc jinwoo doesnt stink and its comical at how bad it wasdbbfb the date omake was so OOC from jinwoo i had to skip it bc it was clear the author was like Oh yeah i gotta convince yall that this is the female lead btw. Which was horribly donehdjd and hae in’s character was so poorly developed too she wasnt even in the story most of the time lmao. The artist’s rendition in drawing women pisses me off too in the epilogue like damn can yall draw women standing normally for once insanity… I had to really make up my own delusion fix it in my head on how the romance happened bc whew i would have lost my mind if i didnt lol like cmon yall why do shounen authors are so allergic to writing romance if u cant write it then dont???? And even if u do write it please have a shoujo author read it bc cmon now i swear it isnt as hard as it seems read kaiju no.8 and it baffled me how seamless the chemistry is for the main leads, hell even i was rooting for them!!!! It would have been so damn good if hae in was an important character that knows jinwoo’s conflicts and struggles intimately and vice versa. They could even have had an inside joke like how hae in always did the first move in the first timeline and when they parted during the final battle, hae in knows about jinwoo’s plan in resetting everything and despite struggling to let jinwoo go and handle it alone, she made a joke and tell jinwoo that Hey, i’ll wait for you and you better do the first move this time. Jinwoo could laugh kiss her and say definitely??? GIRL GET ME IN THE BETA PROOFREAD ROOM WHY DID I THINK OF A BETTER WAY FOR THEIR ROMANTIC CHEMISTRY TO FLOURISH THAN THE AUTHOR!!!!!!!!! RAHHH Welp its understandable i guess bc sometimes u can kinda tell the author has never felt a semblance of romance irl lol and clearly the story jsut intends on focusing more on jinwoo (side character relationships feel more like an after thought except for jinho lol) bc again aha solo leveling amirite. Then again, the novel kind of depicts his relationship with the other characters much better than the manhwa. His relationship with jinho was so sweet and intimate even LMAO might as well make jinho the endgame male lead for jinwoo lololol matter of fact jinwoos chemistry with the other male characters was so much more solid. HELL even that bit with thomas calling jinwoos strength beautiful is insane as well. Gonna have a great time in ao3 later LOL The ending gave me mixed feelings as well. I feel like it would have been such an interesting theme to explore to have jinwoo accept the hunter world as it is. Consequences happen and you have to live with it. And the main character list was still alive too except for gunhee. The ending really was so lonely and pitiful for jinwoo i remember feeling so incredibly sad for him lmao. I would love to read a fix it fic where jinwoo doesnt use the cup of reincarnation, it wouldve been so interesting to see how the world coped after it all and can be a theme on how humans despite everythjng are resilient beings who will do anything to protect what they love. Thats what makes the rulers fond of them too to protect them. I would have completely understood if jinwoo chose to rewind time IF his mom or sister (or hae in even) died during the attack and despite winning, He didnt feel like he won bc someone so important and pivotal to him died anyway. The mental breakdown leading up to it would have made the reasoning solid i think. Oh well! And i know his dad did die but his presence in the story was so … absent and didnt impact the plot that much it didnt feel like a big deal lmao hell, gunwoo’s death hit so much more harder. Even in the extras.. dang Anyway despite all of that its still a favourite of mine to reread. Though i’ll always get in a rant everytime i get closer to the romance or ending lol.. but then the sides would happen and i would be sated bc of how cute the shadow soldiers are LMAO beru tusk igris and bellion my babies i hope with the anime happening we’ll get plushies of them soon… Also side note jinwoo being a cop at the end is such a peculiar choice (but understandable i guess lol) all in all im happy it finally got an anime adaption. Gorgeous animation gorgeous VAs. 2020 me would have been ecstatic to know about the anime like wow i was DESPERATE for it to get an anime adaptation and IT REALLY DID…… love that for me im so happy.. solid 10/10, hype storyline with a very cool mc. Will never forget the excitement it gave me when i read it for the first time
