    It's true that I totally forgot that one scene for some reason.

    All the things I really like to do are either illegal, immoral, or fattening. And then: Golf.

    Interesting. I didn't see it that way.

    I wondered why they even bothered to use 3x C ranks if the B rank supervisor is expected to beat them all anyway. If that was the case then just bring the B rank dude along. If the government can bend rules to bring prisoners out then they can bend the quota rules equally.

    Killing the prisoners off intentionally would reduce cost to society keeping them in (if they were indeed super nonredeemable criminals), but if the death rate goes up too much then that'd dissuade anyone from taking the job (assuming they have a choice).

    The title of the next episode.. yeah, let's see how these guys take it. Since hunters aren't supposed to get significantly stronger, they'd definitely think the kid was holding out on them - even though there's no logical reason for that to be the case either.

    If it's not Isuzu-chan Mii~

    They would consider it a second awakening. If you rewatch episode 3 at 4:30, they talk about it.

    Except the B-rank supervisor dude was there to grade him after their hospital stay and he remained a low rank. So he wouldn't be able to pass it off as a second awakening.

    Ooh, I didn't pay enough attention to notice it was a the same dude. You are indeed right.

    And yet, somehow, the Suicide Squad never runs out of volunteers.

    Episode 9:


    "This special technique of mine conceals me almost perfectly, hahahaha"

    *hero blocking every single attack until that last one*

    :/

    That assassin guy was so comically evil that it really removed all and any moral choice whether to kill him or not.

    "She's the only non-loli girl in the show, your honor!" will be my defense in court

    Gotta keep the hero clean. There can't possibly be that many hunter prisoners, so if that dude was the only one taking them to the dungeon, very rarely all in all, then nobody really paying any attention to some of them going missing isn't so strange. For statistics, they would have likely needed to compare to other countries.

    Comically arrogant is the hilarious part. A B ranker behaving like that is hilarious. I'd understand if you were at the top of the world, but B? In a system that goes all the way to S?

    I mean, he only has to be stronger than the people in front of him to warrant being arrogant. He's a B+ in a place where everyone is C or lower. They SHOULDN'T have been able to touch him.

    I wouldn't necessarily say so. Based on everything I've seen in life, it's not usually the topmost people who are the most arrogant or at least let their arrogance show blatantly. It's those who are somewhat above the average. Of course there are always exceptions.

    Why? This isn't like Digimon where you can only defeat enemies of up to your own evolution, is it?

    He's apparently top of B, and felt that his Stealth skill was OP so get where he's coming from. He probably feels that he's underrated purely based on the stealth alone.

    If it's not Isuzu-chan Mii~

    Seems absurd he thinks he has an OP ability and never considered someone else has a similarly OP ability regardless of their rank...

    Wouldn't he have needed that kind mindset when he decided to become a serial killer of hunters?

    His ability isn't OP. It's in line with someone of high B rank.

    Regarding our MC, it feels like he will hit a growth plateau if after beating a B+ he feels dwarfed by an A.
    I don't know of there are many levels to S, but the island mentionned last ep seems to be difficult for all S hunters we've seen so far.
    Also, there's an S that will soon come after MC.
    We've heard a lot about a second awakening. I guess that's what will happen at some point, he'll get quest to improve his base status.
    Maybe directly to S, or gradually.

    Also, we have no idea if he's the only player.
    If he isn't, a S hunter getting into the same process would be either a great ally, or a tough opponent.
    If such a player exist, she could be that blonde. Too much screen time when she feels like a background character.

    Lastly, what about the growth of that B healer? When is it she becomes useful to the story or just becomes irrelevant and stops spoiling frames? Even that C-hunter has more meaning in less frames...

    All the things I really like to do are either illegal, immoral, or fattening. And then: Golf.

    The name of the series is Solo Leveling. These cut-of-out-cardboard stories usually have pretty straightforward names.

    Jinwoo hasn't really been leveling up for that long. Not much time has passed since his "death". He hasn't cleared that many significant quests or dungeons yet. Though logically it should be faster to level up at the low levels than the high levels. On the other hand, his hunger should be growing as well, seeing how he has quite a clear goal of acquiring the components for the Cure All potion.
