I watched the first 2 episodes of this back when the first season had just come out, I didn’t end up going back to it, but it’s been huge, especially with the second season airing recently. Maybe I can’t judge it too much since I haven’t seen all of it, but it feels overrated/overhyped, and some feel it unfairly won a lot of the crunchyroll anime awards, especially with other strong contenders such as Frieren and Apothecary Diaries in the mix (I just looked up the winners, and it was a mix of winners, including Dan da Dan and Demon Slayer as well as the others I mentioned, so maybe the characterization of Solo Leveling “sweeping” the awards was an exaggeration lol)
