Xaniss

So... no Jinwoo is NOT S Rank. That was an A Class enemy (i think) and he pushed above his wieght basically, being that at this point he's B Rank. from what i remember from the manwha anyway

Toasted Toad

Re-growing limbs was a one off thing. Now he just has the general longevity, anti-poison etc stuff. Also yes, she calls him Oni-chan, but in English it’s weird to address someone as “brother”. Same as it’s weird to address your teacher as sensei (other than in a martial arts class), so in translations, they instead use their names.

Kyle Hunt

This is set in Korea, not Japan. It may not have ever mentioned that in the show yet, but it is meant to be known due to the source material being Korean, and the names of characters. So it is nine S rank hunters in Korea. Also, yes, you were correct about the sister saying Onii-chan which means brother, and it being translated to his name... The translations on his system notifications are a little difficult to interpret. The poison he drank is suppose to cause 'him' to take -20% damage not deal less damage, but he would normally take a -35% penalty to 'his' strength. Similarly his willpower skill, when 'his' HP is below 30%, 'he' takes -50% damage from all sources.

Arcade'owy Łowca

Bruh went with it the wrong way. He had a strong card that he didn't consider. If he said that he can secure a Jinwhoo power secret, he could've stood a chance. As a guild leader you can make a contract that prohibits certain things, like speaking about power of the people assotiated with the guild. So he could activelly help to hide the Jinwhoo power. Instead he went with "I know your secret and I can use it", which wouldn't work on someone as strong as Jinwhoo.

Lloyd

Nah, We dont know what class that enemy was. You do. Maybe let people enjoy the show.

Grim

This is how I know you not a gamer lol xD Green text normally means good for you red means bad. so when he drank the poison he gained -20% damage mean he takes less damage from attacks but because of his talent he got from double dungeon the -35% to strength got removed so he doesn't receive the penalty of been Weaker from the -35% to strength. Over all He got a buff and no Debuff that came with it.

Xaniss

Rest assured its been years since I've read it so I don't clearly know, but this was info that you would have sorta known by now anyway, but yes I should take into account some people don't wanna know that even if it isn't necessarily a spoiler, I apologise.

axilir21

I'm glad they're trying to make Jinwoo's character development feel slower in the anime. In the manhwa, bro just got an entire new personnality as fast as he got a new face so it's nice that they took a longer approach and diverted from the original on that part

pablo1006

Just so no misunderstandings come up. Cerberus was not S-Rank, if he actually was, Jinwoo would've been toast. Cerberus was more of an A-Rank Monster, and seeing how Jinwoo barely managed to kill him, you can safely estimate him to be a solid B-Rank for now. This is further solidified by the fact that Jinwoo realizes that the door that Cerberus was guarding is still too much for him to handle, which is why he stays out. Also, a lot of people might miss this, but the poison Jinwoo ingested was dropped by Kasaka, the Boss he fought in the Instance Dungeon in Episode 4. He realized that due to his ability to detoxify poison (seen when he drinks the beer), he could ingest the poison and profit of it's buff and completely negate the side effect of losing strength stats. Sorry for the lengthy text, but I just wanted to clear this up, in case people missed it because the system windows disappear very quickly.

Ch3fCl0ut

Not to spoil too much, but in the manhwa/source, the conversation between Jinwoo and Jinho went much more positively. Jinho didn't "threaten/blackmail" Jinwoo in the source material and they came to an understanding/agreement. So far I'd say this is the only change/addition to the anime that I'm not huge on.

Yami Youssouf

My theory is the cerberus was an A rank because the key he got from it said aquisition level : A

Ryan Thomas

Not sure if its different in the Light Novel but I know the Light Novel for Solo Levelling does have some differences from the Manhwa including ability names and from what I have been able to tell the Anime is following the Light Novel not the Manhwa as the Light Novel had some extra scenes which the anime showed in the earlier episodes so im guessing the Light Novel may of had the conversation with Jinho go the way we just saw but im completely guessing since I have only read the Manhwa not the Light Novel.

Ryan Thomas

We do know though Cerberus was A rank as it even came up when he got the key for killing cerberus "Acquisition difficulty A rank" which confirms Cerberus was a A rank monster not a S.

Xaniss

This too, but I think in the manwha they emphasised this more

Muligan Shinzuo

The first key "AQUISITION Difficulty" was S, jinwoo also commented on that the dungeon difficulty may not equal the aquistion difficulty. The key he got after defeating the cerberus had aquisition difficulty A which means that cerberus is a monster that an A class should be able to beat and as sinwoo had some difficulty we could assume he is somewhere B+ to A class atm.

Ryan Thomas

Yup though to be fair to Luke it is confusing since they put -20% which makes you think he is losing 20% but the - symbol is just a indicator for what he is getting from the buff not necessarily meaning he is losing stats.

Grim

That's why I talked about color 1st and said this is how I know his not a gamer lol.

Insane Deuit

A thing to note is that remember how in the spider dungeon, there were weaker monsters before it like the bugs, and then the boss was at the end? This is basically the same, but this time the bug is the Cerberus lol....

Soulhind

Like always no spoiler, just answering your questions about present times : 1:30 : yeah his power-up takes place also in this very world (he gain muscles and all) so yup if he go put his hand on one of those machines, it will not show 5 or 10 anymore. Meaning his mana level has indeed increased. 5:45 : indeed no way, that re-grow was a one time thing not explained clearly in this pop up window. He was just cured completely for this one time he completed his very first quest in the Karthenon temple. But he still can regrow limbs with full recovery from the daily quests (like a healer's high spell). But his passive regeneration thing doesn't regrow limbs. 6:00 : the time was short (in fact, he didn't sleep at all before the call in the webtoon). 7:40 : Remember the dude who was training in his gym by punching a large hole into a big rock ? That's a guild master. Often rank S dudes (for the best guilds). But there's really nothing much to know except what you are learning now, you just need someone to be the figurehead of the guild you're starting. 8:53 : No Luke since proven otherwise, it's South Korea here (the metro stations were Korean's names), so only 7 S Class in South Korea. 9:30 : He's even more of a brain in the novel. But more human in the anime. So both sides of him are nice in my opinion. 11:30 : did he tried to blackmail him ? Both interpretations are right in my opinion. 13:40 : No I will not tell you about this dude. But I can tell this : this dude appeared differently in the novel than the webtoon. So it might be even different again for the anime lol 14:53 : yeah high five ! oni-chan = brother indeed ... but normally she says "opa" ah... I miss the korean for those naming things... 16:25 : I can't say wrong translation here since he says "mazu ha" but it's definitly wrong to interpret this as if he could take both. He has to choose between the two of them. And yeah people could see the box I think, but it never happened... 17:38 : again Luke, carefull about the S class difficulty in his system, doesn't mean he needs to be S class by the society standards. It just mean it was difficult to acquire : rare in short. And if it can help you, in the novel it said about the blessed box that it would give him an "item that the player wants". 20:40 : No it was "dash" not "death" 24:04 rewind luke, in the last pop up window, it says "rage" which double the puppy's stats, would only be active for 3 minutes. 26:09 "... now he only gained the advantage, meaning taking 20% less physical damages from enemies." - what Luke wanted to say 17/02/2024 26:40 : aaaand no this thing wasn't S class. I think it can be a bit of a spoiler to tell you what his class could equals to. Continue to make guesses, I guess... 28:38 and don't even think that he's S class now thanks to the level ups... please... he's still far from it. 32:37 : he leveled up 4 times exactly. He was lvl 21, he is now lvl 25.

Soulhind

Don't do the same as Luke, it's good you caught up that information, but this levels in Jin-Woo's pop ups, are only aquisition difficulty, not mana level rankings ;) And I didn't say if you were right or wrong about your guessing... You'll see ;)

dylan jenkins

Its an S rank dungeon meaning the highest strength that any creature can have is S rank so every enemy isnt S rank

Lareolan

Luke, what you don't seem to understand is S class is very broad. The stated ranking is roughly 10x stronger than the previous one. (i.e. a B-rank can fight on equal terms against 10 C-ranks). So if we put it in numerical power scale terms, and assuming E-rank starts at 1, then: E: 1 (i.e. 1 - 9) D: 10 (i.e. 10 - 99) C: 100 (i.e. 100 - 999) B: 1,000 (i.e. 1,000 - 9,999) A: 10,000 (i.e. 10,000 - 99,999) S: 100,000 (i.e. 100,000 - 999999999999999.....) But there's no cap on S, so S is 100,000 - infinity (essentially). So yes, the Cerberus was an S-rank, but he was a lot closer to the 100,000 than to the other end of that scale... This is the best explanation I can provide based on what was already revealed without spoiling anything.

axilir21

The monster was low/middle A-rank btw

Soulhind

No, as you said we can't mix acquisition difficulty with mana level ranking, so we can just guess that the puppy was a weak monster by this dungeon standards. So you can't say it's an A rank monster because of the A rank difficulty to acquire key. But it's just the process of making your conclusion that isn't right ; it doesn't mean your conclusion (about its rank) in itself is false...

Soulhind

@Ryan Thomas Nope the extra scene at episode one was brand new for the novel readers too !! And there was even a new character we only heard of, but never seen in the novel in that scene !

pablo1006

Your explanation of S-Rank is correct, but Cerberus was never S-Rank. The Key to the Dungeon was S-Rank and Cerberus is merely a gatekeeper to the next door. I remember that some folks that also read the manwha did a great analysis on Cerberus and his Rank, I for the love of christ can't seem to find it right now, but what they figured was, that Cerberus was a mid A-Rank, which already makes it much more plausible, that Jinwoo would manage to defeat it. If Cerberus was actually S-Rank, our B-rank Drip Woo would've been clapped.

Golladan

Of course Jinwoo wins. He's the main character, so he has plot armor.

TheMagicSeal

You should let the screen on when you pause to read instead of cutting back to only the camera :'(

Soulhind

@Ch3fCl0ut yeah don't worry, I think I know why they changed it for the anime. Don't worry about it, and you'll soon see why they wanted to do it like this (spoiler alert : I think they made him start refusing, so then he'll go through the next dungeon with the association, and then think back with thoughts like "yeah... with this new incident... I can't keep searching for dungeons like these... I can't level up in those anymore... So I'll call back that kid and go through them in order to be able to level up, since I can't book any by myself and don't want to be found." That's why they made Jin-Ho insists about the 'keeping your secret' thing)

SamJaz

Cerberus is A rank while the dungeon itself is S rank. Jinwoo would be B+ rank at the moment

Soulhind

hey don't tell too much... the next episode is especially designed to make the viewer gauge his new strength...

pablo1006

Your point is correct soulhind, but I think by you not admitting that the rank muligan guessed is right, it might end up confusing other readers. Cerberus' rank is no spoiler anymore so I think we can just clear that up and hope Luke sees it:)

TOMfoolery

Jinwoo struggled with the C-Rank spider, got a little stronger after defeating it and then trained. So it's safe to say that he was at least around B Rank when he fought against Cerberus. He got multiple items dropped by Cerberus, which were all A Rank. Also knowing that the gap between Ranks is supposed to be massive, I'm fairly sure that Cerberus was not S, but A Rank and that Sung Jinwoo is now also at least A Rank but probably still a good chunk away from actually reaching S Rank.

pablo1006

Well the last episode already hinted/ established that Jinwoo is above C. Further underlined by Yoojins' statements in this episode. So I don't see any spoilers here?

Soulhind

yeah except I don't know why the anime is mistaken, it's not a penalty of 35%, but 35 points normaly

Soulhind

I don't know about the rest, but in the novel, they say 80 mana power is still E class. It's actually the average of the E class. So maybe 120-150 the D class starts. It shows how much weak Jin-Woo was compared to every other E class.

Soulhind

Be carefull not to mix the acquisition difficulty of the system, and the society's mana level rankings : they're totally different, even if not totally unrelated. It could help a bit, but absolutely not be mixed to conclued a hunter's / monster's level

Soulhind

@Ryan Thomas no we don't. We can only guess. You can't mix the system's and the society's ranking systems. (and by you, I'm not pointing specifically at you ;) )

Dj

It was probably mentioned before, but Solo Levelling's location is based on S.Korea (the origin of this manga's creation and author)

Michael

Korea not Japan

Palemlem

Cerberus was a A Rank Monster and Jin Woo was B Rank when he fought him and is now probably Low A Rank if you go in a S Rank Dungeon there are monsters from B to S Rank in there i think maybe A to S but not only S Rank Monsters

Juho Kaartoaho

Luke 10/10 reading. Dash lvl.1 = Death lvl.1

Juho Kaartoaho

The enemy wasn't S-Class, the item acquisition lvl. was S-Class meaning that it is an S-Class item.

Revian Garyzta

Well, that coffee shop is named "Penis" in spanish, I know it's coincidence but I would still stay away, just to be safe

Normadus

RECAP next week

Ardane

Just in case no one has mentioned it yet, next week will be a recap episode and the actual episode 8 will be airing the week after that.

RandomTitanGuy

Jin got carried by his weapon for that fight. Remember the dagger deals percentage damage when it hits so once Jin is able to hurt the enemy at all the debuff from the dagger does additional so mathematically speaking he just has to hit an enemy at *absolute* most 99 times (Unless they can heal) and he'll defeat them. Also he healed alot so he would have lost like 3 or 4 times over if not for that.

Zer0

In the manhwa he relied on it less and used his bare hands to twist one of the Cerberus' heads 180°

wildhunt1973

"Let me get this straight: You think the guy who saved you from not only the giant spider but six confessed murderers with hardly any effort at all is possibly lying to the world about being an E-Rank Hunter, and your plan...is to blackmail this person? Good luck." - Alfred, if he worked for Jinwoo.

TheElementalerWars

A small correction from something you said, this does not take place in Japan. It takes place in Seoul, South Korea.

RandomTitanGuy

True and just to note, I did read the manhwa but I'm applying the situational logic to what happened. Plus Luke hasn't read it so sometimes manhwa facts don't affect the anime experience.

2024-02-18 01:47:37 So when Jin got tested his score was 10 but before he was tested in the hospital his first test was actually I believe a 12 which is weird because no one ever has their score changed except for extremely rare occasions. Jin's score went from 12 to 10 because he reawoke resetting all his attributes to 10 this should have been an immediate red flag but they completely ignored it. So if he retook the test again it would show a much much higher number since his skill numbers have raised.
2024-02-18 01:44:54 So the anime hasn't touched on this much but in the manga the system actively helps jin his daily quests seem to give him random items like a pen but that day the girl doctor asks got his phone number to write it down but she forgot a pen but he just so happened to have on from his quest. This happens alot and if you look back into the show it makes sense.

Juraz1k

btw I recommend listening to the OST of the Guilty Gear franchise, like Extras, Smell of the Game, Big Blast Sonic and Storyteller.

calisp wohie

cerberus was the gate keeper for the S class dungen. so beating it is like a little test to make sure you are qualified to even step foot in the dungen itself.

Marcio Neves

First season of Mashle got a recap just after episode 6. It wasn't even numbered as a proper episode, it was called 6.5 😅

Yoru

From what I remember (could be wrong it's been a long time since I read this part) I think cerb was a very high B, not quite A, boss enemy. We'll see actual A rank enemies/bosses in the castle.

syaimaral

Bro wasn't even scratching it! I was sweating balls thinking he was going to die! Then the maniac chooses to kill or be killed! I need a shower.

Freddy VC

just FYI: THe Dungeon is S Rank, the Cerberus was A+ rank, and the Key he obtained for a new dungeon is also A+ rank. MC is B rank atm

Haruto

They're only adapting the artstyle of the manwha. The one they're following is the Novel.

Morgan Hellström

There is zero point reading those. There is a reason why it only show for a short time. Cause it doesnt fucking matter

Vasileios Mitsos

After solo leveling you should watch ninja kamui is a new anime that just came out from adult swim and the first episode are us good us solo leveling

Andoryuu

That's why the words "done" and "taken" are so important from UX perspective. Especially when the text is all white like with the "Buff: Damage -50%".

Andoryuu

Dongsuk couldn't comprehend how E could take down D so easily. And considered D with exceptional equip to be pain to take down for Cs. This should tell us there are vast gaps between ranks, so considering how easily Jin Woo cut through the Cs, we can assume he's B at least.

Hanif END

he got minus 20% damage to himself while the minus strength 35% is negated because his skill. and the gatekeeper is not S class it is a B class or A class. lastly don't mistake an acquisition difficulty and difficulty. acquisition difficulty is how hard it is to get the item while difficulty is as you normally known it.

Normadus

they probably need more time to polish the next episodes. As long as it doesn't mean we lose an episode, it should be fine

PDXM

there is no episode next week , episode 8 will air after 2 weeks

donald cuck

as far as i know, every rank is supposed to be 10x stronger than its previous one, so its fair to say that if the cerberus was S class, jinn would ve died

Toasted Toad

Not too good at maths, are you? It’s 1% of his remaining power each time, not 1% of his original. Mathematically, it would never reach zero. If they start with 100, then next second they have 99. But the following second, they don’t have 98, but 99% of 99. After 100 seconds, they’d still have approx 40% of starting power. And he wouldn’t have to hit 100 times, but only until the debut starts working. After that, it continues by itself.

Golladan

With a system that tells him "win or you die," no he definitely has to win.

Soulhind

Okay in the anime i count 5 too, strange because at his 1st intstanced dungeon, he leveled up to level 15 before the boss, then to level 17 thanks to Kasaka. Then to level 18 with the Golem on a rampage in the city. Then to level 21 with the spider, and finaly to level 25 with Cerberus. But that's according to novel + manhua... We'll see what the anime wants to do since it keeps making things interesting by going to a slightly different path ^^

Dethrox

hmmmm i see.. make so much sense.. and i liked the episode alot more now :D i also though the gatekeeper is S which would make no sense and would dislike our boy for taking such a huge bite + being lucky enough to get out of there alive while killing the thing lol.. no seriosly this was my least likeable episode before i read your comment..thx

Dethrox

man i fricking love recaps.. xD may aswell just not release an episode at all :(

MerabuHalcyon

For the Blessed and Cursed loot boxes that he could choose from, the thing they leave out from the webcomic and webnovel is the fact that the Blessed loot box would give him something he WANTS whereas the Cursed loot box would give him something he NEEDS. Hence the Demon Tower dungeon with the convenient Elixir of Life that he now WANTS to save his mom. Gives him even more motivation to conquer that, but for now more grinding til he's ready.

Dethrox

our gamer instints need to know what its says sorry bro :D deal with it..

Pierre-Olivier Blanchet

About the Cerberus fight : -The items dropped were rank A, so we can assume Cerberus is A rank. -Jinwoo's title, Wolf Slayer, increases his stats by 50% when fighting beasts, so he fought Cerberus as if he was much higher level than he actually is.

Russell Gambardella

As far as the venom he drank, the two effects weren't both bad for him; the one in green was good - the "- 20% physical damage" means he takes 20% less physical damage FROM enemies which I assumed you misunderstood meant he deals 20% less physical damage TO enemies; the red effect "-35% strength" would have been a negative effect for him, but he made a small gamble that his passive effect of detoxifying all poison (from Courage of the Weak) would nullify the red effect, which it did. So the result was simply him receiving 20% less physical damage FROM enemies. Without that, he likely would have died fighting Cerberus.

Tom Boggess

the dungeon is S class. the items dropped were rank A, which means that Cerberus is likely A-rank. Dungeon ranks usually reflect the power of the boss, not the power of the average monster in the dungeon.

Tom Boggess

okay I now know of the rest of the season goes. A shame we stop after the tower. That's when it starts to get good.

slipstride

I can understand why you were confused at the poison drinking part somthing to keep in mind is the items green and red texts typically in mmos green is beneficial and red is detrimental effects so the 20% less physical damage ment he took less damage but in return would have suffered 35% less strength which was nullified due to his ability making it 100% a beneficial potion without debuffs

Crunchy Potato

The hell tower arc is probably one of my favorite arcs in this series. Bit of a shame there's not more episodes but man, they did a great job adapting this into an anime.

Gaurav Phogat

if you feel like words are confusing i reccomend going to the manhwa and giving it a read.

Audrey Dappen

Pretty sure Cerberus was not S-class. Just because the dungeon overall is S-class, that does not mean that every creature in it is going to be S-class. Since Cerberus is the first monster you fight, it's probably lower level though still high as a measure of whether or not you can survive the dungeon. I would put it at A-class probably. The dungeon boss will definitely be S-class but no guarantee about any of the other specific monsters.

Stefan

Don’t drink so you solo level! I like that we got Sukuna in this anime too, but also disappointed that is wasted on that character. So it seems all the guys from Hell’s Paradise were looking in the wrong place 😂 I don’t think every mob from that dungeon is S class, probably the dogo is not S class, or not an S class boss. Probably I’ll start reading the manwa

Amarjit Ubhi

An S class dungeon will only have an S class boss bruv. No S class dungeon will have S class normal mobs, unless it's supposed to be a party raid or like a endgame dungeon in Path of exiles or that other shitty Blizzard ARPG, but even then it wouldn't be solo viable. So I think Cerberus was like maybe high B, maybe low A. No where near S tier bro
