[@controlcon]

​@@FREE_WILL_DEFENDER there are some stuff that just unfortunately can't be translated to anime form, or at least it would be difficult to do so without breaking the flow of the show. those little game boxes that appear in the manhwa are quite hard to replicate in anime considering you can't take ur time and read in anime unlike manhwa. adding dialogue to supplement it would also make the scenes way too wordy as well.

*Upset in manhwa reader*

[@ND_]

NO Spoilers - The reason why he was able to stop Igris' final slash with his hand when he previously had a hard time fending even with the dagger is because (in the manhwa) the gloves Jin Woo is wearing have a passive that reads something along the lines of: "prevents all damage to hands". It's not a "mc rages/finds the will" or whatever moment at least. I haven't seen this mentioned.

[@bradleymuir6927]

Loved all your reactions to that! Quick detail they left out, when Jin Woo catches the sword a little window pops up next to his highlighted gauntlet. It has a special function that negates piercing or slashing of the hand.
