    The most cultured anime of the season at the fourth place, yay.

    I’m surprised that Solo Leveling did not even get into top 15, on the torrent sites it’s in the second place in popularity, right after Frieren.

      From what I’ve been reading on the karma chart comments, there’s not much marketing of SL in Japan, for whatever reasons. Maybe because the plot does something bad to Japan or Japanese later. I don’t know because I haven’t read that far.

        That explains it. It’s a Korean novel, Japanese are the bad guys, yeah.

          That wouldn’t surprise me, if that happens later from where I have read up to.
