Solo Leveling Season 2 Episode 7 Review: Tusk Shines as Jinho Proves His Worth

“Solo Leveling” Season 2 Episode 7 (or Episode 19 overall) has dropped, and fans are buzzing (source: various Reddit discussions on r/sololeveling). This episode shows how the relationship between Sung Jinwoo and Yoo Jinho is evolving and gives the spotlight to one of Jinwoo’s shadow soldiers, Tusk. While some animation choices may have missed the mark, the episode overall delivers exciting moments and plot developments. Let’s break down what worked, what didn’t, and what it all means.

Key Characters in Season 2 Episode 7

Before diving into a complete review, let’s remember the main players in this episode:

• Sung Jinwoo: The main character and the world’s only known player.

• Tusk: Jinwoo’s powerful High Orc shadow soldier.

What Worked in Season 2 Episode 7

• Tusk’s Epic Moments: The “Tusk sequence truly stood out,” says a user on r/sololeveling. The animation highlighting Tusk’s power as he catches the Orb of Avarice was fantastic!
• Jinho’s Growth: The anime showcases Jinho’s intelligence, as he understands Jinwoo’s potential for growth. This is different from the manhwa, where Jinho seemed “a bit oblivious” (source: various Reddit discussions on r/sololeveling). This development makes Jinho a more compelling character and hints at his important role in the future.
