FINISHED SOLO LEVELING A BIT AGO!!! So have some of the little shadow creechurs bc I love them

[little-shadow-club]

Beste and Kaisel being cold (lol) towards the other shadows but absolutely melting whenever they are around Haein. The wyvern isn't a species known for its sociability, and considering the last rider it had before dying was someone that needed to be spy on, and its current rider only calls Kaisel out for missions, her affinity towards humans was simply tolerable.

It wasn't until she got used to Haein riding alongside Jinwoo that she started to feel small changes of heart. First it began with the soft pattings Haein did while she was mounting on her back, then it began with Haein checking over the dragons at the lake and scratching the scales on their heads like one would for a cat, and when months had passed taking care of dragons, Kasiel for the first time had been asked by Haein if she could ride alongside her without the need for Jinwoo. Kaisel hesitated at first, searching around for Jinwoo, only to be struck with betrayal by her master upon seeing Jinwoo give a small nod. Now Kaisel can admit it really is nice to have Haein around, though she does get scared when Haein only decides to hold on to her horns and not, you know, wear proper gear for dragon riding as an unawakened human.

Beste was the same, she didn't know what to do when Haein had first come by accident into her abode. She respectfully attended to her when she said she had gotten lost, and as they walked through, Haein struck up a talk here and there which had Beste agonizing over it since she wasn't the most sociable person out there. Then as the days went by Beste saw Haein more and more inside the shadow realm, waiting for the generals to finish their daily meeting, sometimes with Jinwoo sometimes without him, still Haein seemed to be present at sporadic times, waiting outside until Igris or Tusk where done so she could come to continue to be on friendly terms with them. Haein then all the sudden started striking conversations to the rest of them, and Beste gradually had been the second one integrated into that group. She doesn't even know how it happened, and blames Igris for that since he always sits in the council next to him. Yeah he's to blame. Not to thank really, Beste was doing just fine on her own learning about anatomical or spiritual deficiencies in order to conjure weaknesses against her master's enemies, she totally doesn't care that seeing Haein once in a while is strangely nice. In its own way.

Its the opposite, kinda, for Bellion, he tries to seem as strict as possible so that Lady haein can think highly of him, and she does! but she also find it cute when the angel gets flustered about not knowing how to do simple household tasks.

Igris has a huge soft spot for Haein since she tends to share the same calmness as her late wife. Still, he knows she can protect herself against all odds which makes him feel more relaxed (yes he still remembers very well the last ass kicking he got from her). Haein, though she never really was a top student, is good at learning so she often studies with Igris about geometry and arithmatics. (Yes I do believve they binge a lot of class courses and Haein tends to buy classical books for Beru and Igris thou shall never convince me otherwise.)

Beru is... a hard case, to settle around with. He is aware of their very unfortunate first meetings and tries to not appear as much around the house at times unless called to or when he senses a dangerous precense. The moment haein got pregant he was always lurking around the shadows putting things nearby in case haein wanted them, Igris, Bellion and Beste where more actively present around her, heck even Tank tended to put its head beside her and act like a big pillow at times. It was only after the birth of Suho that he began to appear more often around the house, grabing onto the baby and carefully caring for it everytime Haein felt tired. (Jinwoo was there of course, he always was the nanosecond something happened but the outer gods and the titans didnt make it any less easy even when Jinchul gave him as many months as he needed for paternity leave.) It was at this time that he also learned how to make himself more small at times in order to work around the house without appearing like monster, that could potentially affect Haein's health of course! Igris and Bellion were kinda scared of just how fast Beru adapted to changing diapers and learning what every baby sound Suho was trying to make in order to be understood. Beru also makes his voice a bit more soft whenever he is around Haein and Suho, and even Jinwoo me believes.

(about Haein's thoughts on this, since she doesnt know about the things of the past in ragnarok, then she basically was oblivious to who was the person always helping around the house, but Igris told her about Beru's anticts before she could get scared of posible memory losses.)

Tusks always makes calming healing potions for Haein, and has even tried to learn about skin care. He's a big fan of the products, the makeup as well. Hygene products are a big thing with orcs, what with their enviroment and diet, a good cleaned pair of tusks and fangs are a sign of privlege. Tusk is also just a big nerd of human things so he tends to yap on with Haein about the promotional products she tended to sell (and soon found out about the big world of advertisment doesnt mean shit about the quality of the product, it just means they are able to pay for celebrities to make the product more popular.)

Haein loves to see the dwarfs making their constant sets of jewelry or armor. She's brought Suho along as well, and through the blacksmiths is how she first met with Esil and her father, since they always conscripted the dwarfs when it came to artisan work. Things from masonry to metalurgy to glass working, all of those thigns fascinate both women, like just the artform of it all keeps them entretained for hours on end.

Esil's castle has a collection of weapons and armor which had helped them win against the ruler's wars. Some where made before Ashborn had joined the monarch, others were so old the stories about them still had the Absolute Being present in them. There was a constant evolution and variety among all of them, and the library by the side often held a lot of anecdotes to the days when these weapons were first used. Right now Esil often just lets Jinwoo borrow them from time to time in order to train, and she was more than happy to let Haein inside and take her time learning with Igris about the armory.

If only other humans could look at them as well, I'm sure they would be interested in them. Haein always said that but that kind of future where humans accepted magic beasts and vice versa seemed bleak and not at all the outcome Jinwoo would like.

Esil is also happy to see Haein indulge in her feasts, gastronomy and history, the things the Radiru family is proud of, it's so nice seeing someone enjoy it.

(Her fascination over weapons is also the reason for Haein's 16th anniversary necklace gift.)

Solo Leveling Season 2 -Arise From The Shadows- Episode 9 Review - The Real Reward

I am not crying; you are… (fat lie). Man, it felt so satisfying to finally see Jinwoo’s mother Park Kyung-hye finally awake! His whole motivation to be a Hunter and go through these crazy trials and tribulations was so he can find a way to cure her. The dude went through so much and was finally rewarded blissfully.

Jinwoo has been rewarded so well in this episode. He’s got a dragon minion from Baran’s wyvern, so he earned a way to fly now. He also gained the ability to teleport to wherever one of his shadow minions are, so he can swap places with a patrol minion whenever he wants now. These will definitely be useful later on.

A common ‘criticism’ I’ve seen on social media was that Jinwoo is emotionless and such. Hey, he’s an adult (24 years old) and is basically a slave to a menu system that only he can see. The system only gives him two options: survive or die. Given his motivation in life, he has to survive. The first time he killed humans was back in Episode 6 of the first season, meaning that he’s someone who has solidified his resolve to fight. I’m sure that anyone would harden themselves if they went through the same things Jinwoo did.

But yeah, the hospital scene was so beautiful. The soft blue lighting and the way SennaRin started singing the background ballad just amped it up so well. Jinwoo has been hardened by all of his Hunter stuff, so to see him finally let it out and be the gentle boy he once was like in the beginning was just so wonderful. The way A1 animated this was basically a masterpiece. They animated small details like Jinwoo shaking as he used the Elixir on her to the way Kyung-hye’s hair flowed against the wind as she woke up… it was so breath-taking. Also, the way Jinwoo’s Japanese voice actor Taito Ban voiced him choking on his tears so soft and tenderly is just…*sniff*. Jinah had her fair share of tears too when Jinwoo brought her to the hospital after Kyung-hye’s awakening.

Now that Jinwoo reached his goals, what’s next? Well, there’s still the matter of the giant ants that is the main topic of conflict. The Hunters Association is gathering up all the S-rank Hunters and are also collaborating with Japanese Hunters for this raid mission—you know it’s that serious when Korea has to ask other nations for help. Because of the collaboration, the Hunters are going to test their skills and that’s how the episode ends. Let’s see who’s the strongest…

There’s also the scene with Yoonho and the S-rank Healer Min Byung-gyu who retired from being a Hunter and was planning on becoming a civil servant. It was due to trauma from losing his friend Eunseok during their previous encounter with the ants which was all the way back in the very first episode of the first season. Why does it feel like Byung-gyu is going to change his mind about not participating and join the raid? He’s got death flags planted all over him…

The voice cast just keeps increasing in quality. Park Kyung-hye is voiced by Yuri Amano who you might know as Keiko from Yu-yu Hakusho and Mary from Tales of Destiny. Min Byung-Gyu is voiced by Junya Enoki who you might know as Totomaru from Ron Kamonohashi’s Forbidden Deductions and as Yuuji Itadori from Jujutsu Kaisen. The late Eunseok is voiced by Takuma Terashima who voiced Satoru from Wonderful Precure and Shiki from Edens Zero. A few hunters also have quality voice actors like Kazuyuki Okitsu, but I don’t know who he’s voicing… and there’s also Akio Otsuka as the guy training with Yoonho, I believe…

Will the next episode just be focused on the power scaling between the Korean and Japanese hunters? When will the Jeju arc start? Also, what’s with that Thomas Andre guy’s deal? What are your thoughts on this episode?
