I genuinely am surprised to see this adaptation be so high quality. Once again, I've really felt like the episode I've just watched was faithful to the webcomic and high quality.
So far, I cannot say I fault the solo levelling anime. This episode was perhaps the most engaging so far as it was more lighthearted (so less of a matter of engagement and more in enjoyability) and certainly established the preface for the rest of the show. I have to say, I always appreciate when a show like this does PvE combat style faithfully and doesn't have to give every enemy a backstory. It shows the author feels confident that the dynamics of their fights are sufficient alone, and even if it was 4 minutes of watching very minor combat, I felt like the episode made this exciting somehow. Really actually, as I write this, I realise not much happened this episode! And yet it was so interesting!
This kind of tells you what I felt about this episode - it was really interesting and well adapted! Animation and art was great as always, I love the character design and always appreciate good eyes in a show, and I feel like the show has continually stayed faithful to the source so far - this makes me confident for the next episode which I'm going to struggle to wait a week for!
10/10. Why? I simply can't fault the episode, even if it wasn't action-packed!
