Warning: Contains spoilers for Solo Leveling Episode #14Solo Leveling’s second season is officially underway, and fans are turning out in droves to experience the action that has taken the anime world by storm. Its second episode, titled “I Suppose You Aren’t Aware”, featured masterfully animated combat sequences that showcase exactly whythe anime is breaking records. As Sung Jinwoo’s journey continues, the low-rank hunter continues taking on more fearsome monsters, leveling-up as he goes, and his most recent venture into a Red Gate dungeonhas begun to spark debate in the anime-watching community.

Just as Jinwoo and Baruka were getting set to fight, the Red Gate dungeon boss went on a tangent about how the hunter is no more human than the monsters he kills. Dissatisfied with the Ice Elf’s ramblings, Jinwoo asks who exactly Baruka is, and why he and the other monsters are so bent on killing humans. Before an answer can arrive, however,the elf appears to freeze, glitch, and rewind, prompting fans to question the nature ofSolo Leveling’s dungeons.

Solo Leveling Hints That There Are More to the Dungeons Than We Know

Whatever Is Behind the ‘System’ Has More Power Than Anyone Thought

The moment of the rewind that censored Baruka from revealing too much information was a sort of’blink and miss it' moment in Episode #14. The last few seconds were repeated, Sung Jinwoo noted that it was weird, and then the fighting commenced. While the series protagonist might not have given much thought to the moment, fans ofSolo Leveling’s anime have been wondering just what happened to the dungeon during that scene and why.

The details of the game which Sing Jinwoo has become part of are still largely mysterious, and what fans have enjoyed as a unique power system appears to be far more nefarious than anyone expected. The ‘glitch’, as Baruka was just about to reveal key information regarding monsters and humans, was very clearlythe act of someone who did not want that information shared. But if someone has the ability to meddle with reality itself inside a gate, it raises questions about dungeons as a whole.

They may very well be a creation of those behind Jinwoo’s ‘system’, which insinuatesthe protagonist is playing for the wrong team. Baruka’s rant about Jinwoo being like the creatures he kills would lend to that idea, and it seems that a higher power silenced him before he shared just a bit too much.

Alongside Jinwoo, the three were able to easily defeat the boss of the Red Gate dungeon without much of a sweat, despite the ratherinhumane tactic the protagonist usedto gain the upper hand.
