:camby: Get this Kraven the Hunter fukker off my screen. He out here trying to steal the Jinwoo shine with Legolas in the shadows. So Antman Beru is the new Top Shadow. Jinwoo showed class in releasing Min's shadow to show that while he was the most powerful, he understands others feelings.

:heh: I want to start calling Jinwoo, Murtaugh, from now on. At the end, he is getting cranky having to deal with starting a guild now and a gate causing a traffic jam. Becoming "Im too old for this shyt." now that he is Lvl. 100.



Beru stronger for now boy oh boy there is more to this shyt bout the power of his top shadows but probably won’t be shown for years tho going by anime production releases

I need to vent a bit.

I've read all of the Solo Leveling Manga, and this is one of the rare instances that the anime is doing it a disservice :unimpressed: - its like EVERY episode that is supposed to be epic, is rushed trash. There is no build up moment that gives you that "high" feeling. When I had finished that manga, I couldnt wait for this to be animated, now im just trying to be optimistic about possibly getting a few episodes on par with the manga.

Just finished Blue Lock S2. One of the best sports anime seasons I've seen. That U20 vs Blue Lock game was fire from start to finish. The imagery they used to convey the players abilities, emotion, and how they evolved was crazy imaginative.

So this finale adapted Chapters 57 & 58 as well as the rest of 56 to finish things off. As a new manga reader, I am getting a bit spoiled as I know longtime manga readers have been waiting for a while. Never would have expected we would have gotten another of cour content for this year.

Also add the scene with Mei at the end is anime original. Also, the tease of #6 is given as we had more Hanako-kun content in July.

It was interesting as Nene wondered if this is what Hanako really wants and how to solve Nene's limited lifespan problem. As Kou mentions, this fake world isn't what Mitsuba's wished, but he thought, well, I might as well take it as it is most likely the best option. Hanako had the same realism mindset when figuring out how to help Nene. The irony is that he would have put Nene in a similar position he is now. It really took Nene saying what her desires were for him to realize all of this.

Akari Kitou killed it with this episode. I love how well she portrays Nene's silly moments. Her performance of Nene wanting to live really struck home. It is incredibly sad to think that Nene has so much in her life that she aims to do, and we don't know if she will be able to do it. At least Hanako is determined to make that wish come true.

On the other spectrum, despite the moon being the emergency exit, Hanako doesn't go with the gang. As he states, wishes that didn't come true when you are alive can't come true when you are alive. More so hints at what his wish was.

As Nene she gets a final conversation with Mei before she takes her Yorishiro. While Mei's purpose is gone with Mei inevitably dying, I love that she wants to support Nene's wish to live. Her logic of going after the Clock Keepers is very logical as they are the School Mystery that governs time. Though Nene talking about the world that Mei created and how beautiful that is. I can't imagine there is a better feeling as an artist and hearing those words.

Last bit of doodles from the mangaka Aidairo with the finale of this cour.













Very surprised we are getting more content. But rather curious how much they cover from the #6 arc because it's a long arc. But man it strikes home how despite the cute artstyle, this is a dark series with top-notch storytelling.
