Congrats..

However, you are Nigerians

What's the joy of a house wey be say

No relations to come and see you &
laugh , fraternized& eat with you.

Oyibo culture is too quiet, dull and
lonely.
Keep finding ways to make yourself feel better

Yup.. quite obvious from the first episode how ridiculously OP he is.. he was literally blowing the roof away with magic as an infant in his crib.

Very Annoying gay looking character tho
Wouldn't call it gay looking. The look is more androgynous.

Solo Levelling ....... 5.5/10


If I had to describe this show in a single phrase, it is "power fantasy and nothing else".

The show doesn't hide what it is. It just focuses on a character who goes from being the weakest Hunter to being the strongest Hunter. Nothing else in-between matters.

Character writing is non-existent. You could as well delete all the other characters from the show and almost nothing will change.
Every other character apart from the MC is as basic as they come...
They are just stereotypes with no personality...
Any level of importance they have is only for the MC's benefit...
Thus every other character suffers as a result.

Worldbuilding is also quite disappointing. I'm not a fan of the R P G world elements...but it can be done right for instance F r i e r e n
In this show's case, even the few aspects of the world that could be somewhat interesting is given so little screentime since the entire story must always revolve around the MC.
12 episodes and yet they couldn't even do anything with the political elements introduced within the show...

Story?...there is no story....
monsters of the week
Every episode is the same. MC takes video game type quests and fights in dungeons...survives and gain better abilities....rinse and repeat...


Fights....
This is only somewhat good thing about it...the fight scenes are good...however since they lack any emotional attachment and it's mostly just monsters the MC keeps fighting, there is no impact.
It's just like watching someone kill AI monsters in a video game for hours....
It gets boring really fast...

Just as I compared how it handled it's R P G world to F r i e r e n, I'll also compare how it handles combat to Jujutsu Kaisen.

Jujutsu Kaisen excels because it's story and character writing are conveyed through it's fights. Characters learn through fights, characters grow through fights. The plot moves forward through fights...
That way each fight is actually impactful to the story...

In Solo Levelling it is quite the opposite. It is mostly just fights with random monsters with reward of levelling up.
The few moments of character growth in fighting revolve only around the MC since every other character in the show might as well not be called characters...

Another difference with JJK is that JJK has a well thought out power system.
In Solo Levelling, it's all about the MC levelling up and unlocking random skills to use against the next monsters of the week he fights.

To round up, I didn't expect much story from the show...but I was still disappointed.
The few moments or bits of the world that actually piqued my interest were quickly sidelined in 30 seconds conversations between side characters...all in favour of watching the MC fight the next random monster in the next random dungeon


Truly one of the anime of all time to be quickly forgotten until the next season airs and people watch for fight scenes again
I actually really enjoyed Solo Levelling. I've never read the source material but I could tell the anime was very well done

Really can't wait for season 2. This was an absolutely beautiful experience. All 28 episodes.
Really enjoyed this show.

I could do without the constant Himmel scenes though. I think I got the point in the first 10 episodes grin

HALLO !

@BigIyanga you are all the real scammers and you will all be soon exposed . Nigerians are not fools . You are all afraid of new innovations because your tricks is now exposed on Nairaland .

The old style you are using is outdated . You all claimed to have visas and living in America yet you all turned Nairaland into your family property .

I have a clean record, never worked as a travel agent and not working as one . I am compiling your shady works . We shall soon separate men from boys.



HAVE A NICE DAY .

HALLO !

@Najdorf you with @BigIyanga are just advertising fake visa for the purpose of attracting clients . If your visa is real there is a part you can snap for the public to see and cover the remaining details . VO saw that you had scholarship and he did not ask about sponsorship and just gave you visa 😀. Go and tell that to the fools .


°°°°°°°°°°°


I have not met @NewBoyKashogggi but i use to follow his posts and detailed style of explanations. I also observed that you with your cabals usually attack or try to bully newbies on Nairaland which is a very bad omen for the growth of Nairaland .

Don't bring politics into Nairaland , stop mentioning or abuse the authorities on Nairaland . What we are dealing with here is USA visa issues.

Back to your point , i want to support @NewBoyKashoggi that your claim of scholarships is USELESS FOR VISA PURPOSES. What @NewboyKashoggi is saying and which i support is that no matter how good is your Scholarship IT WILL OR DOES NOT GUARANTEED YOUR VISA.

Encourage students to focus on genuine intentions, SOP , Post graduation plans , How to communicate with the CO convincingly etc. Not focusing on unecessary scholarships which takes away all other visa qualification qualities.

It is good to have scholarships if you can access it but after accessing it and failed to garner other qualities , you will use your scholarship in your home library . Or you want to tell me that all applicants in Nigeria will or must access scholarships ?


HAVE A NICE DAY .
Different characters on this website lol grin

Seems my response flew over head lol.
Dont be misinforming people.. Scholarship for intl students is money in the bank… VO would we prefer US scholarship over FG scholarship.
Good luck
Lol I'm not sure what the guy is on about. The first thing that made my interview easy was that the VO saw I had a scholarship. From then on he didn't even ask about sponsorship.

HALLO !


I want you with any other person undergoing your present situation to be observant in some areas . 1. How many groups have you joined ? 2. How many people have you shared your emails with ? 3. Are you using an agent or did you pay anyone to assist you ?

I just want to hope that you have not received a scam emergency request approval email because i have not read or heard about what you have being experiencing before . I am not totally claiming that the error is not from the embassy probably because of too or large request over work but we also have to be guided .

Anyways . Your only solution is to call the CGI help line . They will ask you few bio data Questions and then verify your claim and rectify it.

HAVE A NICE DAY .
It is an error. I explained to them that this thing happened in July. It's like they're not even reading the thread.

Hi Guys, Please I just filled out the form to request an appointment for a Student VISA Interview. It says my request is received and being processed, and that I will be contacted by email when it is approved. I want to ask how long does it normally take to get approved. So I can proceed to book an Interview date. Thanks so much.
Few days to one month

Seems you did not login to your CGI account immediately you received the emergency approval message. Sometimes, if you delay in logging in to schedule the emergency approved date, you may not see it anymore. I guess that's what happened.

You can check Google for CGI contact.

You usually have about three days to login

I am not retarded bro. The emergency was approved but i can still see the old dates I saw before the approval. I do not have the emergency option on my page. i have been through this process so i know how this shit works, I've just never see this situation whereby you still get the old date even after emergency approval. has anyone here experienced this ?
I and some others had a situation like this back in July. We recieved a "false approval" and recieved a real one a week and few days later. Show us the approval email you recieved.
