Solo Leveling Episode 6 Review
In Solo Leveling Episode 6, Jinwoo fights a C-Rank boss and receives an urgent quest notification that he can't refuse.
Solo Leveling Episode 11 Review
Solo Leveling Episode 11 has the most action of any episode of the series. But, it also has a bit of a repetition problem.
Solo Leveling Episode 1 Review
Solo Leveling is the most anticipated anime of the winter 2024 season. In this review, I give my first impression of the series.
Solo Leveling Episode 2 Review
Solo Leveling Episode 2 continues the prologue of the series and still doesn't get to any "solo leveling" content.

Solo Leveling Episode 5 Review
The most unrealistic thing in Solo Leveling Episode 5 isn't the magic or dungeon. It's the hospital that functions as a hotel.
Solo Leveling Episode 12 Review
Solo Leveling Episode 12 is the final episode of the season. In this review, I discuss Jinwoo's new, edgy class change.
Solo Leveling Episode 10 Review
Solo Leveling Episode 10 has some very good dungeon clearing content. But, not nearly enough of it. I need more of that.
Solo Leveling Episode 3 Review
Solo Leveling Episode 3 finally gets to the content with which the first episode should have began. It's time to (solo) level.
Solo Leveling Episode 4 Review
Jin-Woo levels up for the first time in Solo Leveling Episode 4. And, when he does, we learn how overpowered leveling up is.
Solo Leveling Episode 9 Review
Solo Leveling Episode 9 includes a twist I didn't see coming. But, is it a good twist? I wouldn't say that's the case.
Solo Leveling Episode 7 Review
