Solo Leveling(Only I Level Up) - Reviews

I was hoping to get good quality translations here. Not so sure how the pay to read system works but I don't mind paying if the quality is good. The comparison to the previous sources of translators I read from looks to be slightly lacking but still enjoyable to read. Will wait until translations reach at least in the range if 130++ chpters before deciding if I should invest in this.

I think everyone agree with me that the 100 White Salts translations were doing an excellent job, they had more than one translator on the novel, some editors and etc, resume a complete team releasing weekly, y didn't qidian keep the same team as translators? they weren't charging anything so releasing here or in their discord don't make that much of a difference, this just brings criticism and hate of the community, me too, I'm pissed.
sorry guy that is translating now, nothing against u, but the quality of a whole team is much better than urs
rainbow turtle manage to keep Omniscient Reader I don't see y 100 white salts can't too

I'll gave this novel 5 shining shimmering stars ?????, you'll ask why?..... hmm its simple because its superb. The novels awesomeness is marked in every chapter.
I already finished reading the raws & MTL though the language wasn't my mother tongue i felt really hype reading?. I also read the translation of 25th_chestnut and its really good but sadly you now it was stop and left many readers hanging. ?
Hopefully the new translator can keep the good translation and bring justice to the novel.
Kudos to the author (Chugong-san) for writing a wonderful novel. One of my best read korean novel.??

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.

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.

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 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.

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.

one of the most amazing stories ive read, literally the reason i got into reading light novels.both character and story are uniquely their own.

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 :)
