hiatus? whyyy

 

[Wataterp]

MC is just another edgelord. It got boring after he became a lapdog for that bald dude.

 

[mangashiap]

@aqsivence it’s on hiatus, because season 1 has ended

How did this get rated 8? It's Average to Fine at best (5 or 6).

 

[kyoucha]

I thought this was an alright if generic premise but it’s turned into one of those ones where I can’t remember what the heck is going on in the plot between releases. Might be better as a binge?

@vgcats777
some people dont know the difference between good and average

 

[Fussion007]

hiatus for 3 months or so they said,,
do ReaperScans still around by then??

 

[Mr-Manga-Cat]

s'alright.

 

[KikoClara]

It is honestly not as average as people think it is. I think the rating of about 8.3 is definitely appropriate, at least what is here so far. The ending of the novel is more confusing than what's going on in the first season imo, so I hope that the artist takes the time to make it clearer in the manhwa...

Half of the ppl here didn't even understood the story... this is a full 9 or more

When you finish solo leveling you read this because you want more

As similar as this is to... God knows HOW Many others like it out of SKorea, this story has a better premise, and holds more water under it. From what it currently is up to, I'm impressed with it. It's NOT about becoming a "god" or "demi-god", it's all about the MC's consciousness going back in time to when he Awakens, but with the knowledge of what he knew would happen, and how to circumvent particular events and tragedies, and undermining the, literal, backstabbing bastards of his would-have-been guild leaders.
He's not TRYING to become a god, demi-god, or what-have-you, he's JUST there to stop and kill the "hero". Unlike many Japanese and SKorean stories, he's not there to do anything more. He JUST wants to save the world, and stop the hero.
As for the translators, I think they've done a TREMENDOUS job of translating everything into English! And keeping the high quality of the original too! There is only maybe, at most, 5% errors, where sentences don't make sense, or they came out jumbled. Otherwise? Personally I give their awesome job a 97%, and I should really look into actually tipping them...

Eh... Solo Leveling, it's all about DBZing the story, which gets VERY boring after so long... Honestly, DBZ, Naruto, and Bleach all should have gone to the afterlife some years ago, but they have such a strong reader and viewerbase that you literally CAN'T kill them. While at least Solo Leveling came to an end... and it can be said that this is a great successor, with a better story and use of skills, without becoming TOO overpowered and god-tier nonsense.

So... They finally got to the End... Instead of going beyond the objective of the title, KILL THE HERO ends at just the right time. Open-ended, because the MCs have all gotten to where they want/need to be. And while there's a TON more world-building and a whole set of the story, and room enough for an off-shoot where they TRULY end the story of The Game, and the amount of drama as was built-up over the last few years of the story... I really like how it didn't become a massive clusterfuck of "I am a god now. Bow before me and everything as I defend/destroy the world and fight gods!" The MC had ONE goal after regressing, and he GOT THERE, and now just wants to FINISH things and save the world in the end.
Thank you REAPER SCANS for keeping up with the english translation, and seeing this through to the end. You guys are badasses.

It really goes to show the importance of a nice satisfying ending. The story was mid all the way through but the ending made me think it was pretty good.

 

[finesse609]

as someone that just started reading these, this is definitely one of my favorite reads. if you need to watch something in the meantime of other anime shows or manga this is a good one.

 

[Dongle_]

WHAT??? That was it? It's just a story about a hero saving the world, except it's awesome. Disappointed that there wasn't any other info about the outer gods/nimbus and what the dungeons were all about, besides it all being some sort of 'game' or entertainment for transcendental entities. At least I'm content that the MC managed to retain or gain some power after the 'ending', looks like the world MC lives in will be safe or at least a bit better since he's taking out leftover baddies. Glad its story didn't bloat like solo leveling(solo leveling: ragnarok. The existence of gods means other gods as well! raaahhhh this means you have to keep fighting forever).

 

[StevenCage]

Ended on a good note and it didn't feel rushed so I can't complain.
