What’s Next for Solo Leveling?
Solo Leveling Episode 7 saw Jinwoo challenging his first S-Rank Dungeon that he got a key to after figuring out that he could extend the numbers he got towards his daily rewards. Jinwoo barely survived the fight against a terrifying monster that was guarding the Demon’s Castle inside this dungeon’s area, but he was able to defeat it after figuring out its quirks. But realizing he’ll need to be much stronger to properly challenge this dungeon, Jinwoo decides to instead focusing on getting strong enough to overcome this challenge.
If you wanted to catch up with Solo Leveling in time for Episode 8, you can find the anime streaming with Crunchyroll. They tease the anime as such, “It’s been over a decade since the sudden appearance of the ‘gates’—the paths that connect our world with a different dimension. Since then, certain humans have awakened to supernatural powers. We call these individuals ‘hunters.’ Hunters make their living by using their powers to conquer dungeons inside the gates. In this world of tough customers, the low-ranked hunter Jinwoo Sung is known as ‘the weakest hunter of all mankind.’ One day, Jinwoo gets fatally injured when he runs into high-rank double dungeons hidden within a low-rank dungeon. Just then, a mysterious quest window appears in front of him. On the verge of death, Jinwoo decides to accept the quest and starts leveling up… while the others aren’t.”
