Glitch in the System! Waifu and Minion Gained! - Solo Leveling Episode 14 Reaction!

[@willbordy]

Saw around 10 people reactions or talking about this episode, and what I found strange is that every single person saw the "Glitch" and interpreted as something that happened with the boss, but I remember reading that years ago, when the manhwa was still releasing, and I had no clue was going on and thinking that the glitch was in Jinwoo vision, If I wanted to stop someone I'm guiding, controlling or at very least helping power leveling I would just glitch his vision, I clearly have that power since I make him see panels in their face that no one else can see and even HUD's on top of people you killed to show loot or that this creature/person can be turned into a shadow

[@ollo25]

Season 1 was basically a prologue; season 2 is where the story actually begins. The story is a lot deeper than you think. Baruka revealing there's a voice telling them to kill humans is only the tip

[@pipercharms7374]

in the manwha it was actually premeditated, Jinwoo deliberately kicks the A ranks swords to him while he is unconscious so he can attack him and jinwoo can kill him and arise him :)

[@plantcrone9662]

It's in the anime but the scene goes by Hella fast

[@Malinoric]

At the very least, this was clear just watching the anime to me. Jin-woo was waiting for the guy to make the first move so he had justification to kill and raise him. It's pretty clear he's far colder as a player than he ever was as a human.

[@Soundwave119]

Yeah, in the anime most people will not notice it or at least in their 1st watch. I only noticed it because I have read the 1st 194 chapters of the manwha and even then I almost didn't notice it. 😊

[@Soundwave119]

@@Malinoric Jin could not kill someone who wasn't trying to kill him, innocent and especially someone he cares about. That in the manwha points out Jin knew he needed another powerful ally otherwise Bakau most likely will kill him.

[@GeorgeWashingMachine69420]

arise him ඞ

[@VikingGnomeAnime]

the things with the system in this episode really caught me off guard and I loved that we actually got just a tiny more insight into the goings-on with that

[@limitedun2438]

yuh season 1 was training arc the real plot starts from s2 ep 2

[@Cyrsztof]

The fact that it might end up not even being in top 3 of this season episodes is insane, but realistic thought. It's definitely great sign for some of the more hyped moments coming.

[@r0kus]

I interpreted the glitch differently than you. I saw the elf being prevented from revealing something to Sung, not him being prevented from hearing something from Sung. Also, I don't think there is much evidence for dungeon dwellers being just digital creations. In fact, I feel the evidence is the opposite. Dungeon breaks occur, and very real, existing creatures come out.

[@donaldharvie8539]

YES, that is completely accurate, but there's a bit more lore behind it, and I will say this there will be more “glitches” i.e. The system restricting what he can hear, in this season

[@kineographBOT]

this

[@Yuemitai]

It maybe kind of implied by the openings and ending if you noticed it. In the opening he’s depicted as dead, while in the ending he’s depicted being saved

[@donaldharvie8539]

That's true, but it's foreshadowing something else

[@TokyoMaqq]

oh boy im not spoil you but what i will say is the story is way deeper than you think

[@DownSouthGhost]

Bro has no idea 😂

[@miroslavduran7826]

He was pissed shiny pokemon got away.

[@Rapha_blinds]

LOL that must have been the same feeling indeed

[@Avitymist]

4:15 I thought it was more like it was just censored out. Like the system wouldn't allow that to go through the chat filter.

[@donaldharvie8539]

[@vonrich2614]

5:40 A) he was knocked out and when he woke up he had tunnel vison on the person he hated, thats actually a real thing. B) its simple. If you hate someone, you dont care if it looks like they will die, YOU want to do it yourself. Its the mindest "i hate i couldnt do it myself" if someone got to them first.

[@shrimps616-tiktok]

2:40 hunters doesnt get strong. Its a one time thing. When they awaken, thats it theres no way to gain more power aside from equipments.

[@AlexandreJasmin]

Do you get ripped overnight?

[@Rapha_blinds]

My interpretation of the glitch was that it was the system censoring Baruka's words. But I just hope it doesn't go the "digital world" route as well

[@udshdruday25]

@@Rapha_blinds this was my impression too

[@PSBeard]

That’s correct will be confirmed in demon castle arc.

[@waydeclarke5349]

Fantastic eps! Thanks for the vid, glad you were able to squeeze it in today, I really look forward to your takes.

[@Soundwave119]

The new episode of Solo Leveling covers parts of chapter 51, nearly all chapter 52, all of chapters 53-55 of the manwha. The manwha has Jinwhoo more blunt saying to Kim 2:22:12 that he abandoned them to die and not the other way around😂. Though in Kim's defense at that point he was on survival mode with suffering hypothermia, starvation for days and the PTSD the ice elves gave him. At 2:25:03 the anime hides Jinwhoo's calculating mind knowing he needs a tank Shadow soldier and know how Kim will react when he awakens from being knocked out 😏. The manwha shows this cold calculation of Jinwhoo in great detail . He deliberately made sure that Kim's sword 🗡 landed next to him to goad Kim into trying to kill him, so Jinwhoo could have the justification to kill him and make him into a shadow soldier. Iron uses a goad skill to make Bauko to attack him and not Jinwhoo. It's a common traite in tank type class.😊

[@Sacrimony]

8:55 This was actually addressed in season 1 and in this particular episode. The level difference between him and the elf king was too great, that's why it failed three times. It even says in the system that you cannot shadow bind someone at a higher level than you. But then you're thinking, Idris was definitely higher level than Sung, how did he do it? Because Idris wanted to serve him (also addressed in season 1).

[@herniriomegax1]

No spoiler: If they continue to adapt the way it's going, there won't be any disappointment and the anime will be one of the best.

[@donaldzuramp4404]

Are we just gonna ignore the fact that jinwoo can literally kil a human and make it his own shadow soldier?? Was expecting it to be limited to monsters but man.. imagine recruiting dongsoo, a rankS after beating his arrogant ahh

[@ericbunker6242]

My favorite part is the spoof Sister Leveling.

[@AnirbanKar4294]

16:20 , all i can say is, you wont be disappointed :)

Which one is that?

@@Jason_Quinn the misunderstanding. And sure fire material for the next episode of Sister Leveling.

[@hawaiian_143]

ty Andrew great vid! Ever since reading the manhwa how great it was to see this scene animated and fantastic job, i can wait to see the rest of the season some great exciting stuff to come. Iron: "Hulk SMASH"

[@bluegrave4376]

I remember binge reading the manhwa after the first season ended. It's so good - follows the rule of cool so well. Really excited to see some specific fights animated this season based on how well this one was handled. Seriously hope it keeps getting more popular so that the entire story is animated

[@karowana]

Glad you enjoyed it! The build up for the S2 finale gonna be insane given this animation at episode 2.

[@freydawg56]

"Solo Leveling" is the title. 16:48

[@fatrown3]

I interpreted the glitch as the demigod temporarily overriding Sung's privileges. That evil seeming demigod can probably just model its power that it grants after something the awardee would be able to recognize and interpret. Like how Sung understood their language inherently. Its just auto-translated in his mind as something he can recognize Oh, and its also possible that the evil demigod knows of videogames and fancies them as they reflect his war hungey ways. A system that rewards endless killint, hooray!

[@FushigiNoRoxas]

I think we're getting something closer to "I'm Standing on a Million Lives" for this world. I don't want to spoil anyone who hasn't seen/read that, but that's the vibe I'm getting.

[@TenchiBushi]

The fight vs the ice elves was bad ass.

[@AndyDillbeck]

I've read the manwa all the way through, and he is kinda on the right track, but it's even cooler than he is guessing. The full story is so good.

[@animelover-pg2lx]

He died as a small boi!! And revive back as a DADDY... 😩😩😩😩😩

[@namronstryker9221]

So hard not to spoil it lol but just wait theres so much more to see in this season and the seasons to come

[@edi9892]

Isn't that elf A-rank too? From that adventurer to Igris and that Elf there's a huge gap...

[@bodybuildinglife3718]

This anime had some interesting "matrix" undertones.

[@newguy8344]

I was jumping and shouting by the end of the episode! What a S2E1 kickoff!

[@JM-us3fr]

I think all three of them (Jinwoo, Igris, and Kim) are all fighting somewhere on the A rank spectrum, Kim being low A rank, and Jinwoo and Igris being mid A rank, and the Ice Elf was probably high A rank. I don't think any of them are quite S rank.

[@colovick]

Reasonable, but I'd still say sung and igris are closer to s rank to be able to one shot an A rank who specializes in tanking and defense. The boss was definitely high A to low S rank though

[@donaldharvie8539]

@@colovick yeah I agree by this point they're like mid to high rank, definitely stronger than a mid A rank but not as strong as an upper A rank, but iron is around a B rank because it has been stated that the shadow soldiers are weaker then when they were alive(at least at this point in the story)

[@JM-us3fr]

@ I suspect Igris could one shot Kim Chul because he was already significantly damaged from his previous encounters, putting him closer to an effective B rank.

[@Gowreckme]

I figured he was low s rank, just barely, due to how much stronger he is than Kim but also how baek reacted when he tried to stop jinwoo when they left the gate

[@sundragon7703]

So Otaku Spirit, are you suggesting that Sung Jin-woo is a probe for the "other side"? An intelligence gathering tool with self-preservation functions? Now that is a twist that I cannot recall seeing before.

[@bojackbojackbojack]

Yeah dude. This simple power-fantasy just FEELS good to watch. Today's episode ESPECIALLY. There's no deep plot-points and everything is nice and simple and dark. It's good.

[@donaldharvie8539]

But there is foreshadowing for deeper plot points,

[@fvnoah]

This is one of those episodes you gotta watch twice😂

[@imperialthreat]

I feel like if he doesn’t go a little crazy he is just a person running a muck killing humans and taking souls. He has to sort of pay the crazy tax at some point

[@jakethornton4856]

Only the high level monsters or people retain their memories when Jin Woo brings them back like Igris. They have a remnant personality but that is it

[@longrove5710]

Yep. The "Derpy" bad guy woke up and got tunnel visioned on Sung.

[@cristoferpr7]

Beru is king!!! Also (spoiler alert) Sung's sisters life is only ever threatened once, and lets just say that existance felt genuine horror and regret when sung showed up.

[@LawZauthentic]

Trust me it won’t be a gaming world All I can say is it’s gets deeper from here on ❤️❤️

[@unquiche]

The game world is clearly run by Bender Bending Rodriguez, giving the gate characters the prime directive “kill all the humans”

[@JoonJoon92]

16:45 lol

[@donaldharvie8539]

The creatures in the dungeon are very real, they are in not digital, there's a bit more lore behind it, and I will say this there will be more “glitches” i.e. The system restricting what he can hear, in this season.

[@christopherbrooksoregonboy]

We’re only two episodes in but this season has been peak

Love your videos. Your thoughts on this video got me curious if you read the manga. I myself have not but have seen summaries of the Manga but also played the game which has the story part of the game so some theories make sense and some not so. Also loved the episode

[@Ricardo_Rick]

It's sad that for as much Jin upgraded in perception he is still so oblivious about the girls falling in love over him. Also, hey, if she can participate in life threatening raids then she can date the MC, it's only fair XD

[@Chalo122790]

He is not oblivious just not interested , is sort of skipped but the nurse also got ignored for being too intense

[@Ricardo_Rick]

@@Chalo122790 i thought he thought the nurse was just worried, but good to know, still it's a little sad he is not interested, i mean, aside from the obvious girl that was teased already tho

@@adaeptzulander2928 Well, true, but to be fair he was dense even at the hospital tho

If he is a 'player', what does he play against? We keep implying this is a 'Player vs Environment' rather than 'vs Player' scenario, but even in such a case, is he the only 'Player' in this system?

[@Deathcylance]

Just FYI, there IS a reason that there was a glitch... and it has to do with season 1 episode 1... although, we haven't met the character yet...

[@donaldharvie8539]

YES, that is completely accurate, I'm staying here there's a bit more lore behind it, and I will say this there will be more “glitches” i.e. The system restricting what he can hear, in this season

[@SaoGalaxVr]

it's a system that's all i can say in a way, and i was not going to watch this season since i read the ln/wb twice, but this arc being animated is top tier, can't wait til they get to the island area.

[@donaldharvie8539]

The island is honestly one of my top three arcs of the entire story for me

[@patrickdk77]

I think it was best since the first 2 episodes, I felt the ignus fight was kindof plain, just the same old job for him, defeat this for your goal today, and those where getting old, though that was atleast a more detailed one. I wonder if the system glitched itself, or if the god that made him glitched it to keep him unknown, to help shield him from any other gods

Don't worry. You're wrong about everything being a digital world. This is not Digimon. And the light novels are really good by the way. 😉

[@nakerusa]

Either Jinwoo wasn't strong enough or RNGesus is just a cruel mistress. First, Sister Leveling, now this? 😂 As for recruiting Jinwoo, couldn't they just offer to pay for care/cure to his mom? Or would he still decline since he has that potential cure from that dungeon? Seriously, thought, 10/10 episode and my favorite. Thankfully the first two episodes of s2 are so much stronger than the first two episodes of s1. Solo Leveling Saturday vs Sakamoto Saturday (vs BTE Behemoth 🤣)? We're the winners either way! Bring on SLF Sunday!

[@jonathanturull8508]

@nakerusa the cure has a next to no chance of spawning so with mc getting it, no one can unless they are a S rand and really really really lucky.

My theory is that several realms with several alien gods are at war and several of them are trying to invade and conquer earth with their armies but for some reason one among them, some kind of evil shadow god decided to reincarnate as human instead, among few reasons behind this choice was to make the conquest easier and to take other gods by surprise for that he may have also staged his own destruction he also may have created that dungeon from the beginning and large scale spell the MC calls "system" to find his new body, slowly awake his own reincarnation and make his new human-like body slowly used to his divine powers
