Early Access: Solo Leveling 1x9 - Group Reaction+Uncut

So when this episode aired the “goku hops” was an homage to Akira Toriyama 🕊️

Fun fact this episode was released on the same date as the death of Akira Toriyama. Coincidentally the jumps of Jin woo during the fight was a reference to Goku's fight in the DragonBall super Broly movie.

I believe Jin Chul’s warning actually comes next ep. Maybe you should edit your comment? Also it’s very nice you have the time to comment on this normies’s reaction when you’re literally in the middle of a thousand year blood war, shoutout to you

#sundayrundown Differences between Manhwa and Anime: > Jinwoo killing Goblins has actually been shown (Manhwa only showed Jinwoo standing over dead goblins) > Song Chi Yul being the mentor of a S-Rank Hunter has been mentioned here (yet this wasn't shown in Episode 8 previously like in the Manhwa) > The Father who hired Kang Tae Shik as an assassin has more lines, where he mentions it's ridiculous how the Criminal Hunters can lower their sentence by still working as Hunters. They also meet in an office, not a cafe. > Jinwoo does not receive any buffs from Lee Joohee > The Criminal Hunters(prisoners) are all killed by Kang Tae Shik. No one survives. Therefore, unlike the Manhwa, Jinwoo does not drag the long haired rapist hunter to the Boss Room to have him killed by the Dungeon Boss. They probably skipped it bcoz they had to finish the entire arc in this ep. It also doesn't make sense that Jinwoo knew about that rape thing in the manhwa even though Kang never said it as far as i can remember. > Although Jinwoo receives the Rune Stone having Stealth, he does not comment on it (In the Manhwa, he questions how he is able to obtain Kang Tae Shik's skills through the Rune Stone) > Unlike the Manhwa, the Goblin Boss is not shown at all. The Boss battle is completely skipped as well. (Technically Manhwa never showed the full battle either, but they at least showed the dead boss after) > Woo Jin Chul does not give a warning to Jinwoo about Hwang Dong Soo like he did in the Manhwa. > Unlike the Manhwa, Lee Joohee brings out the Mana Crystal from Episode 2 at the end while Jinwoo and Joohee are in a park (In the Manhwa, it was brought out while they were still outside the Cleared Dungeon after being questioned by Woo Jin Chul) I liked the scene where Kang kills prisoner but to be fair it may have seemed a little too edgy, especially with how his character is being portrayed more realistically. Talking about the Bloodlust skill scene, it had the exact same coldness portrayed in the Manhwa. A perfect 1:1.This was a really great episode, imo. Leaves us wondering what they have in store for the future fights. The animation in that scene was incredible. They went full Kagenashi style just like JJK s2ep16. Shadowless drawings are soo satisfying to look at.Some amazing cuts of background animation in this episode. Most likely done by the G.O.A.T Takafumi Torri, the main animator of solo leveling. Top 3 episodes of Solo Leveling s1 so far for me(Episode 1-9).The fact that we are getting this level of amazing animation in almost every single fight so far is an incredible feat. We still haven't even reached the best fight of the season yet. And season 2 is  gonna be even better. What an amazing time to be a Solo Leveling fan.
