tldr solo leveling is good if you're looking for a brainless power fantasy w/ action-packed fights w/ an op gary stu but fails in every other area.

The first few chapters with the statues were good. It showed how smart and quick-witted the mc is despite being a coward and the stakes were high but all that went of the window.

First of all, why tf did sung jin woo need a damn near-death experience for him to start working out LMAO. I thought it would be common sense for a hunter to work out. The story goes on about him being the worst but he doesn't try to improve himself by keeping fit.

Second, the system is literal plot armor. I get that every mc needs plot armor bc there would be no story w/o it but the system makes it way too obvious. Sung Jin Woo gets hyped up by the fandom and characters and thinks he's hot shit but he wouldn't have never gotten far w/o the system. It would have been more interesting to have him achieve higher ranks w/o it.

Third, Sung Jin woo goes from cowardly straight to edgy gary stu. His character arc/development is very flat. Ironically, he was more interesting when he was a coward.

Fourth, the side characters get shafted for Sung jin woo. They're nothing more than props to make him look so ~cool~ and ~strong~.

The plot itself is decent. It's not terrible but there are better written stories out there.

It's not a masterpiece by any means and I wish people would stop using that word so easily. SL is a 6.5/10 a 7 if we're being generous.

y'all taking the ratings seriously when shit like bj alex has a 9.7 ?LMAOOOOOOOOOOOO

well???

started off good then became boring or badly written

ml this, bl that... yawn.... y'all worship male characters too much POST HOT WOMEN AND HOT WOMEN ONLY!! POST SOME BADDIES!!! cute, shy, dominant, crazy POST EM ALL!!!!

imo a slow burn is for ex. a story has around 100 chapters and the leads don't get together for at least half the story or after. a lot of these "slow burns" are speed runs they be getting together within 10 chapters with little to no build up whatsoever i can tolerate it if they're already friends but if they're enemies and/or strangers absolutely not it makes 0 sense

and since i bought up the topic of enemies to lovers this trope is straight up ass and overhyped it can be good when done right but the majority of the time is isn't. it's usually grape/abuse/stockholm syndrome to lovers lbh bc apparently the only way to write 2 characters who hate each other is if there's grape or abuse involved

who's the top
who's the bottom
who's the seme
who's the uke
if <character> is the bottom/if <character> is the top i'm dropping
dropped because <character> is the bottom/dropped bc <character> is the top
*sees shounen ai tag* where's the P 0 R N????

and then y'all wonder why bl readers have a rep of being obsessed with gay sex? lmao

sukuna x cinderella ao3 smut do be kinda good bc why are they so well written??? help

tbh i never understood the hype for this trope "omg i hope he GROVELS and BEGS for her forgiveness before the fl takes him back" how is this a W for the fl when she gets back together w/ her abuser who gave her lifetime's worth of trauma? i much prefer stories where the fl moves on and has a hot girl summer and stays single or finds another man who treats her right

since both have finished this year and everyone is clowning both endings, which is worse?

on some "you deserve better you're too good for this series" type beat

IN YOUR OPINION
1. Who's stronger
2. Who's the more interesting character
3. If you had to save one or the other who u choosin
3. Which one you smashin
