I didn't know anything about Manhwas either until this one went viral, long before the anime started airing. This animated adaptation is practically the one that has had the greatest impact on the culture and the world of Manhwas, so much so that now we see more adaptations of Korean works to anime. I don't know if Solo Leveling started it all, there must have been older animated adaptations, but this is the one that has had the most impact.
And I agree, apart from it being a bit slow at times, I also feel that this first season was very short, or is that the feeling you get when it leaves you with the HYPE in the skies with the end. 🤔
Thank you very much for the support.
