You're further proving my point about your 0 media literacy

I love how you didn't counter any point I raised about the plot of the show or the characters...

But instead chose to attack me and another show...


This is not your first time...
You've never made a single point on this thread...all you do is attack and attack people...

Even when you make statements you can't defend your statements, so you run away instead.

Lollll see hypocrite wey dey talk

Have you not attacked people here before

Solo levelling is da bomb. If e pain you, go cancel am na

If you're enjoying Solo Leveling for the action and power fantasy story, there's nothing wrong in that...

But I'm not a fan of that...I'll probably just finish the season hoping it improves...

But till now you're unable to even make a single sentence to counter my points about the story and the awful character writing

To you, it is awful. To me, it is more than okay.

A weak dude become atrong. He faces opponents of increasing strength. The fact that we nearly died in that 1st quest gives him courage anytime ge faces other cave bosses because none could measure up to those God's he nearly died fighting in his first quest.

It's a story of how challenges of life make you stronger because each one prepares you for the next. Na you dey find another even yeager up and down

Ninja Kamui episode 1 First impressions -

**Spoilers below

The animation and fight sequences are top notch and pretty fast...it's epic and I have no complaints there...
However personally I prefer more tactical battles... something that makes each fight memorable and not just swift sequences...

The story - it's too early to tell...I'm kind of tired of the whole family got killed and he's seeking revenge plotline...but let's see how it develops...
I hope the entire show isn't just revenge but focuses on other aspects of the world...lore etc...we saw some ninja techniques (ninjutsu) in action...
I hope the story can explode them more

The Music - I hated it...awful.
I don't know who the music director is but he did an awful job in this first episode. The music constantly being used never fits the scene...
The music keeps making me lose immersion...
The Japanese are really good when it comes to music...i might be wrong but I don't think they're the ones I charge of Music in this show...


Overall thoughts-
A pretty decent start...but too much action sequences imo...I hope the next episode slows down the action and focuses on more character work...
As much as I enjoyed this episode, I hope other episodes don't move at this pace.

I'm still wondering what brought AOT or Eren into this argument.

And the fact that you keep missing my point is shocking...

We are 6 episodes in and the entire story is just guy survived one dungeon and got a power...and he keeps fighting monsters and powering up while flexing...and girls don dey crush on his six packs

Clear MO of a power fantasy

When I spoke about character work, so far several characters have been mentioned or shown on screen yet not a single character aside the MC has had any focus.


Basically all the characters introduced seem to have no personality.

Compare the first 6 episodes of JJK for instance. In 6 episodes we already knew the personalities of not just Itadori, but also Megumi, Nobara, Gojo, even the principal who appeared in just 2 episodes then had more personality than every Character aside the MC in Solo Leveling...

In SL, even his female friend from episode 1 and 2 suffered trauma and has been forgotten about since episode 2 while only the MC has remained relevant...

It seems like all these Hunters just exist for the MC to surpass...and the other characters just to praise and be wowed by the MC's strength and looks...

Despite all the hype...the show is becoming nothing more than a generic power fantasy...

I was warned anyway even before it aired that it has no substance...but I chose to give the show a chance...but so far it's been disappointing imo


Even a close friend went ahead to read the manhwa...and omo I'm trying hard not to be discouraged by what he said...
Cos he deleted his entire folder and quit the anime after reading ahead in the manhwa

Just to clarify...the issue with Solo Leveling seems to be a very common issue among most popular manhwas...

For some weird reason they all seem to follow the same pattern...Solo Leveling, TBATE, The Gamer etc...

The only tangible one I've read is Tower of God and I didn't finish it so I don't know what it became...

Noblesse also showed some promise but quickly became crap and I got fed up...

But yet I've seen good Korean shows based of manhwas and webtoons yet these manhwas are never the popular ones hyped so no one knows about them. E.g Hellbound and Death's Game were based off manhwas...

I saw the latest trailer, and i genuinely think it has the potential to be the greatest show this year, i just hope the trailer ain't deceiving.

Early reviews are claiming a "GOT level show", and i must say that is a giant leap. We wait and see.

The average movie/series discussion by Nigerians on Twitter and nairaland -


A: "This movie is trash 2/10"
B: "What are the issues with this movie, I think it was great"
A: "The acting was nonsense, infact the movie was just trash"
B: "Can you explain how it was trash, I thought the character arc of x character was done well, the story kept expanding and revealing layers"
A: "You're saying nonsense, it was just trash and I don't owe you any explanation...I'm free to call any movie I like trash, it's my opinion"
B: "But you should be able to explain or defend your opinion"
A: "Mumu leave me alone, it is trash and that is all"



OR


A: "This movie was great"
B: "I thought it was awful. (Proceeds to write and explain in long paragraphs many issues with the movie)"
A: "Mumu, you're saying nonsense, the movie was good. Everything you're saying doesn't make sense. You are expecting it to be like your favorite movie."
B: "tell me how my points don't make sense. And what brought my favorite movie into this conversation?"
A: "leave me alone, the movie was good, if you don't like it move along. Your favorite movie is trash"



Even though I tend to disagree with some people here and argue with them, I very much prefer those over the ones who make random statements that they cannot defend and resort to insults

Every new trailer I see about this show gives me massive potential vibes. Especially the reviews. It's overwhelming positive and all saying GOT level.
I just hope they deliver on what these trailers have been teasing.
Since na FX, I no too dey doubt the cooking.

When you get to episode 6, I believe you will attain enlightenment.
The flashbacks are much so it's enough to give you more understanding.
