As many of you guys know, one of the greatest stories told, however extremely lackluster translation. Chest nut and 100 white salts has done an incredible job up til CH 136. Check those out and then come back when Webnovels has caught up.

This is not a very good novel. The mc is simply unlikable. Don't allow the first few chapters to fool you because he is basically an idiot. Also, this is a very short story and he levels up incredibly quickly. The mc basically has no challenge whatsoever.
There isn't much world-building and no romance at all. The entire story has basically devolved into dungeons and levelling, and those aren't very interesting.
You may also be interested in reading about his relationship with his sister but that's basically glossed over.

Verdict: Pass this one.

As an avid reader, "Solo Leveling" left me utterly captivated. The protagonist's unique journey, where she single-handedly rises through the ranks, resonated with my love for unconventional narratives. The plot was filled with unexpected twists and thrilling action sequences that kept me on the edge of my seat. What I appreciated most was the character development, as the heroine's resilience and growth were portrayed authentically. This novel is a delightful blend of fantasy and personal transformation, making it a must-read for those who crave immersive storytelling.

What a crappy translation! the translator should either take a basic grammer/writing class or just pass the translation off to a competent translator like the 25th_chestnut.

They're still deleting reveiws. I'm gonna rate it 5 star this time and see if my comment gets deleted again. I reccomend you guys to go read Chestnuts translation instead of this trash. The translator has a hard time conveying things in proper English.

This story is aggravatingly stupid. The author tries really hard to make the conversations and internal thoughts edgy, but it only works if you don't try to match what they say with their motivations.

I really wanted to like this story. I think the overall plot and settings are interesting.

Ignore every other review about this.  The book is great.  Chapters are top-quality,  translation is on-Point.  Every chapter costs 13-20 ss because it's so long but if you hoe enough you won't realize how the day goes by.  Took me 11 hours to get to the last chapter in a crazy Sunday binge read.  It's just that good.  Ignore the hate comments,  they'll stop at around chapter 140. It's one of the best stories,  absolutely no loophole,  whenever you feel like author-him did an oopsie2,  it'll be explained in the next 1-4 chapters.  Try the story.  Give it a chance.  It'll be worth the read :)

This is a nice novel, however this translation leaves much to be desired. The quality of the novel is greatly reduced because of the lacking translation.

Love it, but I loved the 25th_Chestnut translations more, they had a really high quality, you could almost feel the work behind every little detail... and although the quality was the best the releases were not slow. I can’t believe that Qidian had to stop someone doing such an amazing work... and for free!

Perhaps the dullest level-up game system novel I have read out of dozens, there's absolutely nothing here you haven't read before if you've read half a dozen in the genre. To be frank, I read the first forty chapters a couple of days ago, and I could not remember the plot until I opened it to refresh myself.

The MC's personality is wildly inconsistent and he keeps doing dumb things that plot armor saves him from. For example, he gets a key to open up an S-rank dungeon, thinks to himself, "only a team of S-ranks can clear S-rank dungeons", then goes in and almost dies to the first monster and only doesn't by sheer and utter luck that it's in the only class of monster he gets a buff against.

His system has an automatic growth cheat, which is a big problem, because he gets stronger every day with minimal effort... but he still goes off an risks his life for no reason at all, because he has no unusual motivation to do anything. He's almost died half a dozen times in the first 30 chapters, and there's no reason for him to, because he literally gets stronger every single day, and again, he has zero motivation for risking his life.

Also, literally every other person he runs into is a villain out to kill people. This is absurd, because they essentially live in a near-future S. Korea and society and the superhumans are supposed to be well-regulated. He's spent his entire life being a bottom-rank loser and hasn't died, yet as soon as he gets super-powers all of a sudden everyone he runs into is trying to murder people.

It all feels like a barely coherent freshman author attempt in an over-saturated genre, and I just can't understand why this story is rated highly at all.
