Solo Leveling Episode 1 Recap
Ten years ago, Gates started appearing worldwide, connecting this dimension to the world of monsters. The brave heroes who fight these monsters are called Hunters, divided into six ranks according to strength: the strongest of them belong to the S-Rank and are then ranked from A to E.
Solo Leveling episode 1, titled I’m Used to It, begins with the anime original scenes of S-Rank Hunters Baek Yoon-Ho and Choi Jong-In defeating some ant monsters. Elsewhere, Go Gun-Hee tells Woo Jin-Chul about the Government wanting to avoid a Dungeon Break. Yoo Jin-Ho, Han Song-Yi, and Cha Hae-In have also been introduced.
Later, Sung Jin-Woo, an E-rank hunter dubbed “World’s weakest hunter,” joins Healer Lee Joo-Hee in a D-rank Dungeon Raid led by Song Chi-Yul. Jin-Woo has a comatose mother and a sister who wants to attend university, both of whom he supports on the meager earnings from the Hunter’s Guild.
He finds one e-rank Magic Gem before getting hurt and has to be healed by Joo-Hee while a second Dungeon opens up inside the Gate. The Hunters vote on whether to continue the raid, and Jin-Woo’s vote leads them to enter the second Dungeon.
They enter a chamber filled with giant stone statues and find the 10 commandments of the Cartenon Temple. When the hunters try to escape, they become trapped inside the chamber as the statues come alive and try to kill them.
What to expect from Solo Leveling Episode 2?
Episode 1 adapted chapters 1 – 3 of the webtoon/manhwa with considerable anime-original content added to it.
The second episode will likely cover chapters 4-7 if the anime starts to follow the manhwa faithfully without any detours. But given that several key characters are yet to be introduced, episode 2 may also feature some anime-original scenes.
According to the lone preview image, Solo Leveling Episode 2 will feature the infamous smile from the stone statue. More details about Jin-Woo’s character will be revealed as he tries to save himself and others from the wrath of the temple.
