Man, I can't get past the eyes. I've tried, but everybody looks cockeyed or some shit and it's starting to make my eyes hurt... Had to drop this. Hopefully it gets an anime someday.

With that cover picture the title should be "Bra Busters!"

I mean seriously how does that woman sleep/walk/stare-at-her-toes without either falling backwards or on her face....

Honestly, not a good story and if you find the cliche Japanese 'no-killing' mindset cringe then you will probably hate this one. Lots of bad writing and reverse deus ex machina as well. This is from the WN though, I'm not sure bout the LN but if it's similar then I guess its nothing great either.
Author gave the MC negative plot-armor while giving the antagonist plot armor instead. MC was written like an efficiency-focused guy but author makes him intentionally nerf himself and even gave him mental debuff out of nowhere. Gave a president a stroke when he tried to nuke the antagonist. Whitewashed the antagonist to look like a revolutionist trying to go the Lelouch route after he had released criminals and told them they can kill, rob and rape whoever they wanted. When people were sent to stopped the antagonist, they somehow want to avoid killing him and only want to capture him because 'killing is wrong' despite all the atrocities and people he killed???

When the antagonist revealed he has an S-rank monster and hundred thousands other monsters after he has killed hundred thousands people, conquered other countries, threatened humanity, revealed that the lives of everyone is on a deadline, and people asked to nuke him, guess what? Nothing happened and instead people decided to argue for restrictions against the ones trying to clear dungeons to save humanity. Bruh, this isn't like those solo leveling dungeons where people are merely at risk. They literally have a countdown to death that everyone knows but everyone keeps trying to court death. It's hard to take this story seriously.

Like everyone said, the pacing is bad and the action isn't great. Huge infodumps that you can pretty cleanly skip without issue.

I only made it to him ranking up to C but I didn't understand how he had a year until any dungeons started popping up but then dungeons started popping up seemingly after a few weeks. Was it 1 year dungeon-time?

Picked it up and it's kinda meh. The narrative is all over the place. A lot of characters get introduced as important but then you never see them do anything. The MC doesn't really seem to have a decent cheat ability like in Solo Leveling, he just has a head start relative to other dungeon explorers. A head start is kinda worthless though when time passes at a hyperspeed rate inside dungeons and you can basically live in one.
