ATTENTION ALL PLAYERS! Thank you for all the love on these videos. I just posted an update on the community tab for what is to come next!

[@mizukasenju8070]

The big question for you are you gonna wait for the 2nd season or are you gonna read the rest of the story?

[@pieexpo140]

Please don't read the manhwa. Blind reaction is so much more fun to watch

[@aryanbaghar1989]

The man, the myth,the legend,rizz monarch,shadow rizzler, edgelord himself, sung drip woo( i could have glazed him more but it would've be spoilers)🤣

[@FTF-Media]

The rizziest!

[@coupe97]

The Rizz is just beginning 😂 You should watch the teaser for next season, you'll see what we are talking about

[@CrunchyNood]

Can't wait for season 2. Loved when he looked at Igris and said, "Wakey Wakey"😂

[@FTF-Media]

Time for Igris' eggs and bakey

[@stealthytrapper2328]

Erect

[@jonathanrolle5118]

Dude the ARISE command gave me chills when Jin Woo said it for the first time! Awesome reaction to this series and can’t wait for season 2 whenever it comes 👍

[@notimportant2166]

It was a real joy rewatching Solo Leveling with you two. Till next time. 😁👍

[@mavzdog]

“IGRIS! GET UPPPPP!!”

[@Fallen_Core]

Here's what system actually said originally. They shortened it in anime. "Wherever the player goes, the reaper follows. The player's path is littered with corpses and the smell of blood remains. As the player possess strength, he does not leave anything to his teammates and overcomes everything with his own strength. Your desire for the strength burns strong enough to call those who wander the valley of death and the army of dead which follows your commands shall create a path where your tread will be the law and you would never need another's help again." His power suits him cuz he doesn't trust anyone after he was betrayed in double dungeon. And no, this is not a generic card description like pokemon games. System never lies.

[@aryanbaghar1989]

Also, another crunchyroll sub mistake, jinwoo didn't say ( you're with me now) he said im glad to work with you guys. (Angel of death)(valley of death)(only for player)(ghost) (statue of god) ( double dungeon rulles:1 worship god 2 praise the god 3 prove your faith to god)(player)(ruller's hand)(monarch of the shadows) these words aren't just poetic they have significance in the plot of the story.

[@Freakyademz]

He is a necromancer, so yes. He can extract any dead person's shadow. The limits are time passed after death and how strong they are compared to him

[@FTF-Media]

Jinwoo would make a great decorator for Halloween

[@platypusp3rry]

Loved every episode's reaction. Can't wait for season 2!!!

[@FTF-Media]

Woooooooo!

[@zanta9635]

Been here since the start, Been great to see your reactions and i am looking forward to your next one.

[@szgamez5844]

Watch season 2 trailer pls

[@benjamindas0440]

You guys...i loved you guy's reactions...wait till you see the season 2 wherever it comes out...its next level epicness...

[@CimmerianAssassin]

You guys should make community posts to get more community involvement going as well as possible polls and recommendations. Would probably make your channel pop more since you both are decent reactors and actually have discussions and whatnot.

[@Airwave2k2]

My liege. You did well watching the anime. It's a delight that you are so into it. The show is good, not outstanding, but solid. However within the genre of power fantasy it is up there, so with the right direction I think the next season and hopefully after more it will no disappointment. Also and now do Frieren (if you do first 4 episodes were broadcasted together, so you should watch them as that package). xD

[@leonielson7138]

22:11 "Jin-Woo is no way, like, upper-B." Since fighting Kang Taeshik, Jin-Woo has cleared about 10 C-Rank dungeons, fought all those knights and others, defeated Egris the Blood-Red, wiped out a Penalty Zone, and cleared the Job Change Quest. Egris was a high A-Rank, which means that Jin-Woo is likely high A-Rank or low S-Rank at this point.

[@mazhiwezakizo3513]

If Igris was High A-Rank, then at best SJW would have been Low A-Rank... at best, because, while he did win the fight, he was clearly outclassed the entire fight, by a pretty significant margin.

[@Airwave2k2]

@@mazhiwezakizo3513 yes he is somwhere in the A Rank - more can't be said. It is funny that people wanna push him up the Ranking so much from show to show, while we also don't like when in these shows the powerprogression seems far to fast.

[@mazhiwezakizo3513]

@@Airwave2k2 lol yeah. I honestly think the pacing would have been better for the story if he didn't just immediately (effectively at least) go from the bottom of E to basically upper B or lower A.

[@ShauryaYT29]

Nah he's A Rank Or Lower A Rank at this point. he got lucky against Igris, but he could probably defeat Some S Ranks with Igris Fighting Alongside Him

[@shintaroozaro153]

"Will he do that to Dong Sok's brother?" Me:Hmm... Greed? Introduce urself.

[@badmoon7695]

Love you guy's reaction. Looking forward to more.

[@RoryMitchell00]

The enthusiastic reactions you both had to the "Arise" line being spoken is adorable and infectious, I must say. And initially I was just as reticent about the class change to necromancer as both of you, but it really does make more and more sense as the story reveals itself, even apart from the awesomeness of having Igris on Jinwoo's team. I am looking forward to seeing season 2 as much as both of you are. This has been an inspired adaptation by A-1 Pictures so far, and if this level of quality continues for the next twelve episodes, then I feel we're in for something legendary in the annals of anime. I won't spoil anything, but the next season will have my favourite mini-arc of the entire story. It blew me away more than episode 6 or episode 9 of the anime. Yes, it's that good. Don't worry, there are many more incredible moments that come after, so please don't think that the show peaks early or anything. It's just this one upcoming part does such an unparalleled job of bringing together everything that came before it, that it is seared into my memory as the most awesome and cool moment in the entire story. Thanks for the reaction, and I'll be on the watch for more content from this channel! Oh, and speaking of which, please watch the Solo Leveling season 2 teaser trailer that's already out.

[@FTF-Media]

The Arise line was hype, and I can envision how the necromancer class can evolve into some cool stuff. Thank you for the kind words, and it's good to know there is a teaser out!

[@khirmrsmile5159]

Can't wait to watch season 2 with you guys....and can't wait to see you guys reaction what the meaning behind the system and why he been chosen as a shadow monarch

[@FTF-Media]

Can't wait either! I need to know the secrets of the system asap...

[@khirmrsmile5159]

@@FTF-Media I want to tell but....as a long solo leveling manhwa fan reader I don't want to give the information.

[@FroYo1305]

Arise is probably one out of the two best command words in Solo Leveling. Have been waiting for this scene for a long time, and now we wait for the 2nd xD

[@TheTallmanJim]

The Jinwoo voice actor was being threatened if he messed up the arise line, to the point that he said if people keep trying to tell him how to do his job, he would change the command to "wakey wakey"

[@FTF-Media]

What a legend

[@qiki9643]

Jeju Island arc gonna be breaking the internet after the tusk arc

[@kouno]

you guys gotta watch "I Got a Cheat Skill in Another World and Became Unrivaled in The Real World, Too" HEHE

[@distructor6551]

There are so many people who miss the scar on Igris's left eye cuz jinwoo stabbed him in their fight, it's his ONLY scar from battle. What a beast

[@leonielson7138]

So, as a light novel reader, here's something I've been thinking about in relation to those who have experienced a Second Awakening ... Spoilers ... There have only been 5 true Second Awakenings, not including Jin-Woo due to his growth, rather than a sudden increase in power. All the others have been artifice: either False Rankers revealing their true power, or [redacted].

[@leonielson7138]

Welcome to the Shadow Army! ARISE! 5:58 "Dude, he had the same smile as [Cartenon] ..." Glad you caught that ... 7:00 Go Gunhee: "My body was no longer fit for combat by then ..." There's an interesting juxtaposition here, as Gunhee's body is being burned out by his power, while Jin-Woo's body changes with his growth.

[@xtentiong.f2537]

I had no issues with this show, very happy with what A-1 Pictures~ *(the studio, they have a great catalog of shows btw, just if you're look for a new show to start)* ~gave us, especially as a Manwha reader for SL they managed to improve upon alot of aspects and gave us phenomenal animation too. I cant wait for S2😭 Also wonderful discussion at the end, brought up some great points that youd be surprised to know are very valid.

[@notimportant2166]

ARIZE was freaking awesome!!!

[@Dr3aMy00]

There is a teaser trailer for season 2, but it has like 1 frame on season 2 stuff and has almost only recap

[@Fimmies_9]

Hi been enjoying your Solo Leveling reactions! So I wanted to recommend an anime called Summer Time Rendering! I won’t explain what the show is about cause I’d prefer the premise of the show to be a surprise for you guys.

[@coupe97]

If you noticed, when he got promoted to "Shadow Monarch" the camera showed the throne just behind our guy. I mean just saying 😉

[@MJR_heyfunny]

If you think about it when he killed Igris it gave him an s tier item those usually don't drop from lower than s tier monsters. Remember he got a lower tier item from the gate monster in the S class hell dungeon. From Cerberus. So I think Cerberus was probably like A tier

[@irikngangom8317]

The prologue is finished now the real story starts

[@Betaziod]

I have a few suggestions. 1. I Got a Cheat Ability in a Different World, and Became Extraordinary Even in the Real World (異世界でチート能力（スキル）を手にした俺は Isekai de Cheat Skill wo te ni Shita ore wa, Genjitsu Sekai wo mo Musou Suru ~Level Up wa Jinsei wo Kaeta~?) or simply Cheat Musou. 2. The Eminence in Shadow (Japanese: 陰の実力者になりたくて!, Hepburn: Kage no Jitsuryokusha ni Naritakute!). 3. The Rising of the Shield Hero (Japanese: 盾の勇者の成り上がり, Hepburn: Tate no Yūsha no Nariagari)

[@Leleominator]

There's a teaser of the Second season...

[@Leleominator]

Some sugestions... Haikyu, Hunter x Hunter, Gate, death note, demon Slayer...

[@matthewbrown3194]

Recommendation demon slayer

[@Daffodilee]

To make you both happy a little bit of spoiler though - - - - - - - - - - - Every question and all the mysteries will be answer shortly and the next season will be full demon castle season 😊 if we lucky we will also get the jeju island

[@siddery8080]

Can someone clarify. If he loses his Dagger or throws his dagger, can't he just take it back out of his inventory like he did with igris or does that only happen if someone else tries to hold the weapon? The call back power seems useless for his weapons if he can just take it back out of his inventory otherwise Edit: I can't help but get excited over the thought that there are probably hundreds of Gates that broke on that island!! I wonder what bosses will come!

[@talhakhan-nn1cw]

You should watch kju number 8

[@mazhiwezakizo3513]

The reason SJW had such a hard time with raising Igris, is partly because the longer a body has been dead, the harder it becomes to raise their shadow, but also because of the relative strength between them, Igris is actually stronger than SJW, so it makes it just that much harder to gain control of him. Thirdly, this is never really stated anywhere, but will be hinted at later, is the reluctance of the target to serve SJW. Igris was extremely against serving SJW, for... "Reasons" that might be covered in the far future, but SJW's speech actually convinced him to accept SJW as his master. Also, I don't think this counts as a spoiler really, but in the Webtoon, you get to see alot of funny little... shenanigans... being committed by the Shadows, in the background of many scenes with SJW, and I really hope they include these in the next season. They add alot of... personality... to the shadows.

[@CeazariusAveToMe]

ERECT!!!

[@mhrehl]

React to Frieren next, please.
