Wow what an incredible first season of Solo Leveling. Season 2 can't come fast enough!

bro got gaslighted by the system into choosing "necromancer " 🤣😂

As you saw in the fight with igris,igris had his own conscious as he responded to sung fighting bare fist so you can tell that he will be a character and have his own thoughts

"igris wont have personality" famous last words.😂😂

“Instead of defending the throne of one long gone, defend the man who stands before you.” 🔥🔥🔥😈 -Jinwoo

Igris doesn’t have a personality? Lmao you’re in for a surprise brotha. Listen to your girl brotha. 💪🏽 😂

"Igris doesn't have a personality and he's just gonna fight and staff" Oh? 👀 Manhwa readers, if you know you know haha can't wait for the next cour/season

The single most iconic word in all of manhwa… ARISE! The birth of the SHADOW MONARCH. This was only the prologue. The arc starts off with a bang. Can’t wait for season 2.

Now solo leveling has started, this episode marks the beginning of Jinwoos real journey and I love how the series was handled also glad second cour has already been annouced

The tutorial is done, the shadow monarch and his army of shadows are here!!👑👑🗿🗿🗿💀💀👑✨️✨️

JinWoo’s speech + Igris kneeling along with the rest of the shadow gave me chills throughout my body. I was skeptical about watching this anime at first but thank goodness for my curiosity 🔥🔥

I am very strongly in favor of Mel's opinion lol. Igris was sooooo cool to be left wasted. While what he said was not wrong, Igris, just feels like a loyal comrade...from beginning to an end. He has a lot of shadows, but i swear, nothing makes me happier than seeing Igris appear. IDK i just feel very protective of igris for some reason haha.

Igris has a personality, he is a character like Rimuru's minion like that Diablo

Been waiting on this reaction since I saw the title. Notification Squad 🎉 Season 2 already confirmed. Now, onto the reaction. Can't wait to see your hype.

19:50 just to clarify jinwoos shadows are not just abilities they have their own thoughts and personalities each and every shadow is its own character. Jinwoo is basically letting them live life again they can also progress in ranks just like jinwoo himself as u saw the normal knights had lvl 1 but Irigis was already lvl 7 just due to how strong he was in his previous life. He also has a time limit in which he can extract someones Shadow/soul *Remember in jjk that witch that brought back toji its something similar to that but in this case jinwoo is summing the soul aswell as the shadow body but in jjk the witch only summoned the body* The shadow soldiers also have 100% loyalty to jinwoo being he is the “SHADOW MONARCH “ (jinwoo basically their king) they also will stay with jinwoo for as long as he lives and he can summon them whenever in any scenario.

The shadow monarch 😍 Solo Leveling starts now! Thanks for reacting to this season and I hope you can continue with the others in the future.💪🏻

Just finished watching your reaction! So, I wanted to clarify the post credit scene, NO SPOILERS: Basically, what Choi and his guild spotted flying over the ocean was an ant. The post credit scene has a dead ant with wings on the table. They've never seen one like that before. After the repeated failures of the Jeju Island raid, they sorta just left the island to its own devices since the Island is secluded from the rest of mainland South Korea. But now that they've discovered an ant with wings, it means they are evolving at a rapid rate, which makes them a much bigger threat since they could soon reach the mainland at this point. So, it's suddenly more pressing for them to go back to the island to try clear the dungeon. Hope that helps 🙏🏾.

Can finally say it...ARISE

16:15 its not RNG, Jinwoo said in this episode while reading his new necromancer skills that the shadow extraction depends on how stronger than him is the creature and how much time passed since it's death.

Omg!!!! Great episode! Jinwoo is so cool 😭 Solo Leveling season 2 was announced and I'm really looking forward to it! 🔥😆

Time to spam ARISE! And Oh boy you ain't ready for that "personality" 😂

This is when jinwoo just becomes a complete powerhouse, can’t wait to see it

Theres a reason everyone loves Igris. he has his own fanbase cause hes actually a character

Been waiting for y'all haha 💯

The single most iconic word in all of manhwa

AGREE WITH MEL!! I love the fact that we get more Igris! When he fought Jin Woo and set his sword aside to do hand to hand combat, he earned my respect. "Oh you wanna throw hands? I got hand for you too!| 💪💪

The epilogue was showing a sneak peak of the Jeju arc ants! They’ve evolved since the last time hunters went to the island to take them on

Igris and all of Jinwoo's next shadows will sure surprise you guys, they're not just a skill I ensure you 😂

This is just the beginning And this is just the end of the first core The second core will be out by the end of this year or the beginning of next year hopefully

I like what they did at the end they changed jinwoo voice when he was speaking to igris, it makes it seem like someone else was speaking not jinwoo. Especially when he setup the Arise command it was like it was not jinwoo's voice you can tell its something more to his power that he is not aware of as of yet.

Right when I was looking for y’all video 🙏🏾

This is the START OF THE REAL SOLO LEVELING by Our MC and the gang

Just want to clarify: there are only 7 S-ranks in Korea, they have stated it in the earlier episodes. So the group that is currently on this Jeju Island recon mission - only 2 S-ranks we know: Guildmaster Choi (red head glasses) and Cha Hae-In, and the others in the group are A-ranks. And its stated that Cha Hae-In wasn't a hunter in the previous raid attempts.

20:15 well , you can tell that the shadows is like characters 🤣 you will see next season

The speech and than ARISE!!!!! Damn this season was dope! Cant wait for season 2!!

Just finished episode 12 and that was awesome, I also agree with what Mel was saying about Igris because he was a dope and memorable character and I’m glad we’ll get to see more of him in action.

Don’t disrespect Igris like that, your in for a ride lol😂

if you havent noticed, he already exceeded ranks B and A by now. Cant wait for them to animate the whole series

I've never been so fast to a reaction 😂! Been waiting for you guys to see this 😁. Everything in this anime is about to get SO MUCH COOLER! The other elements and characters in the story only really start coming in now 🙌🏾. Also, we're almost at the debut of Sung Drip Woo 😂! Can't wait for the next cour/season later this year, hopefully.

Regarding Igris being just a skill...shadows keep their personality, so he is not just a faceless minion

“Damn these giant ants are giving S-Rank hunters trouble huh?” You have no idea… NO SPOILERS

Ah yes! Episode 12 "Hands Fades... and Shades"😎

Another small foreshadow was igris's title "the knight that defends the empty throne" hinting at the fact that jin woo was he's next king to serve

"Arise" gave me shivers

U guys are in for a wild ride wait till you see the real shadow army jin wo still a baby shadow monarch 😂

his shadow army have there own characteristics like normal people

My man said Ingris is just a mindless ability! And won’t have a personality! Ok 😂 I won’t spoil it!

now that was epic and i cannot wait for season 2! i can already tell sung is gonna be so op he gonna toy with this enemies.

Steph trying so hard to win back his wife's heart from igris☠️😂😂

Yea they nailed this final episode of this season 1 great peak episode to kick off and now season 2 announced that's gonna be more excitement to watch hopefully it's 24 eps cause it's gonna be insane fights to remember

This scene is so epic

Sooooo sick. I can’t wait for S2 now, I’m so hype ugh. How the hell is there only 12 episodes for this!? This was the most anticipated anime like, of all time and yet Frieren which came out of nowhere has 28!?

great season and great reactions guys! Next season...ants...CHILLS!!!

Now you'll get why everybody's so hyped, from now on, any opponent he'll fight in the future can join the army, and yes they keep their personality and such, every shadow army member is it's own character they're not just "skills", you'll even see them progress and beeing stronger and stronger each time they fight just like jin-woo, they don't just "show up for 1 move and that's it", they can be around for like days or weeks if he has enough mana to keep them active

I enjoyed watching your reaction week after week. See you guys next season

LONG AWAITED AND NOW ITS HERE!!!! ARISE!!!!!

Arise on Easter is crazy

Igris is more than just a shadow best believe.. haha , Mel is on the right track!! Just wait as the story progresses

"Igris is not a character": Famous last words hahahaha

happy easter yall god bless yall 🤍🙏🏾

“Bending the knee to jin woo” 💀

Igris the right hand to the Shadow Monarch goes HAM!!!

The shadow monarch is here and My favorite shadow igris can’t wait to see the rest of the shadow army animated

igris will actualy have like his type of "personality", and one of the main characters we all from manhwa love

We must remember this ending discussion for the seasons to come! Also there are only 2 S-Ranks on the helicopter just to clarify and they didn’t go to the island to fight really. Just to scout.

Igris still retains his personality so she’s right

and with that single job change, our boy ascended past S rank

Ahh it's here!! ARISE. THE REAL SHOW STARTS NOW. What an amazing season.

The ants evolving wings is an issue because they’re currently on Jeju Island, meaning they have no other access to mainland. Wings would allow them to reach unprotected cities and basically slaughter everybody thats not a high rank hunter.

And there you have it... our favorites daddy's boi is now in our ranks!!!

congrat season 2 are already confirmed i hope you both enjoy with it soon struckbybelz!?. ARISE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

His shadows will have characters.

Heads up guys, igris has his own personality. All the shadows of Jin Woo has their own soul and personality.✌️✌️

Y’all are in for a surprise 😭🙏🏻

To think he started with this little amount of shadow soldiers

the top dogs realizing jinwoos strength is the dopest moment for me

ARIIIISE! Time for the Squad!

I’m anime only but I feel Igris does have personality/ soul. 1. Igris dropped his weapons when Jinwoo dropped his. 2. Igris also needed a pep talk to trust Jinwoo before allowing himself to be extracted. 3. Igris was also the first to bow down to Jinwoo at the end then the others followed.

Lmaoooo bro Igris isn’t gonna have personality?? 🤪 he denied jinwoo twice and it would kinda defeat the point of jinwoo saying all that to him in the 3 attempt

19:50 just wait LMAOOO

King Igis ARISEEEEE😂 (Finally)

Can't wait for season 2!!

No you guys missed the important point in Jeju island mission its not strike mission but recon mission so to determine the difficulty lvl so they can make strike team accordingly

Shadow Army - When he level ups the skills, his shadow storage capacity increases along with shadow extraction. When the shadow army fights they level up and Jinwoo also level up with them. There are more but these are the basics.

Long live the Shadow Monarch finally we're done with the prologue now the real fun begins in Season 2

His personality gonna change a whole lot after the jeju island raid.

Next season gon be even better. Trust 🔥

Igris definitely has a personality, he is a character

Igris will have a personality ...igris basically just became a pokemon..but he's like pikachu. Always out...he can do taks and watches over his sister n shi

It would be cool if shadow Igris has some sentience and can communicate with Jin but I'm guessing he will just be a badass "pet" that just fights. That new job power-up was amazing though.

“he doesnt have a personality “he doesnt know yet

The thing about JinWoo's higher level summons (like Igris) is they have their own personalities. As the story goes on, and JinWoo levels more and gets more additions to his army, yall will find that the summons have their own personalities, and that they bring those traits from when they were alive to a degree.

Igris, Ant Prince, Bear, Hunter and King Ogre.

And so, the prologue ends. Time for the real fun to begin!

After HxH i never underestimate ants in anime

sung Jin woo bout to be the coldest shadow monarch u see

Best episode ever hands down the hype is real for season 2

The fact that the Ants are evolving by getting wings makes them more dangerous and of a higher threat cos now I think they may be able to fly off that island into cities or something. damn can't wait for season 2.

“Long live the King”

He has showed his personality multiple times even when he becomes a shadow
