Despite concerns about his overwhelming power, Jinwoo’s battles remain engaging and intense.
Solo Leveling’s risky choice to focus on an overpowered protagonist has paid off, captivating viewers.

The gripping series Solo Leveling has earned recognition for its thrilling combat sequences and remarkable main character, yet a recurring topic among viewers as the narrative unfolds is whether Jinwoo is excessively powerful. Fans of the show, along with those offering their opinions from the outside, frequently ponder this question.

Some people claim they haven’t watched the show yet because this concern arises for them. Is it possible that the underdog story is elevating Sung Jinwoo too quickly, or is his extraordinary strength what keeps viewers hooked each week? With season two of Solo Leveling nearing its conclusion, it seems like a good moment to explore this question.

Although it’s not unusual for the main character to be the strongest, Jinwoo stands out significantly. In just a couple of seasons, he has advanced from being an E-rank hunter with no power to potentially surpassing even the S-ranks. His growth isn’t confined to his strength and skills; he also becomes more robust physically, grows taller, and seems to become increasingly appealing. It would not be an understatement to say that his transformation is absolutely astonishing.

By the fifth episode, Jinwoo, who took on the role of “player” at the end of episode two, undergoes such a dramatic transformation that it’s almost hard to recognize him. His abilities and physical prowess grow so rapidly that it’s understandable for some viewers to have concerns. After all, if the story is meant to escalate in intensity, how can it do so effectively if its protagonist can effortlessly defeat every opponent?

Keeping Things Interesting

More Than Strength

Something noteworthy about Solo Leveling since its inception is its ability to build and maintain suspense. From the tragic incident in the twin-dungeon, to the fight on Jeju Island, viewers find themselves perpetually gripped by anticipation. Regardless of Jinwoo’s power level, he tends to confront adversaries that exceed him. His relentless pursuit of strength for his unconscious mother propels him into battles that logically should be deferred until he is more ready.

Thanks to this, it’s hard not to question his victories. Each time he emerges triumphant, it feels like a tough struggle won, whether through brute force or cleverness. Even when his success seems inevitable, Jinwoo’s preference for anonymity brings an unexpected twist of difficulty. The series’ creator, Chugong, does an impressive job of maintaining intrigue, even with a protagonist who could potentially lessen the tension from any fight. However, given that his initial objective was achieved in the twenty-first episode, one might wonder where Jinwoo will head next.

What Now?

In a touching moment reminiscent of a final episode, Jinwoo successfully achieves his goal. Now that his mother is fully recovered, it leaves one wondering about what new objectives Jinwoo might pursue. While he may still require employment, his previous driving force seems to have faded. With no grand aspiration pushing him, does he need to continue enhancing his abilities? Certainly, he can provide for his family without venturing into dungeons ranked higher than B.

As the storyline on Jeju Island commences, it appears that Jinwoo is contemplating a specific course of action, deciding to stay out of the conflict instead. This move displeased quite a few spectators when Sung elected to let the elite S-rank hunters handle matters they had just defeated. Regardless of the public’s reaction, this decision only adds to the growing suspense. Audiences find themselves on edge as powerful world-class hunters prepare for battle. Even when Jinwoo eventually joins in, it’s evident that the upcoming fight will be a tight contest.

Too Legit to Quit

To put it simply, there’s no denying Sung Jinwoo’s immense power – it’s downright over-the-top! Yet, witnessing him conquer challenge after challenge never fails to excite me anew. Reading Solo Leveling is like watching the most captivating character from your favorite tale take center stage, akin to having Erza Scarlet or even Satoru Gojo as the protagonist. This character who serves as a testament to power’s potential – that’s none other than Sung Jinwoo.

Choosing an individual such as him as the main focus was a daring move, but despite some reservations, it has proven successful. It’s no secret that Solo Leveling has climbed to the top position on Crunchyroll now. The next step is to keep tuning in to see if Chugong can sustain this high level of excitement. Readers of the manhwa seem to think he will, after all.
