MrBeast left \u201cdepressed\u201d over new Solo Leveling episode CrunchyrollSolo Leveling took a brief break recently with a recap episode that left fans frustrated, not least of whom was prolific YouTube creator, James \u2018MrBeast\u2019 Donaldson. A breakout hit of the current anime season, Solo Leveling has garnered millions of fans worldwide thanks to a creative merging of fantasy and sci-fi, and an intriguing protagonist in Sung Jinwoo. Starting out as an E-class hero, Sung goes through numerous trials in the anime show to ascend the ranks, an ability he gains after surviving a horrific super-powered dungeon in the first episode. Recently, after Episode 7, we got a recap \u2013 a summation of events thus far, with some narration. This isn\u2019t unusual in the industry, and A-1 Pictures probably needed to do one in order to give more runway to the animators. However, the audience wasn\u2019t thrilled, including MrBeast. MrBeast was \u201cdepressed\u201d after seeing the Solo Leveling recap episode On X, formerly Twitter, MrBeast responded to Dexerto about Solo Leveling Episode 7.5, revealing he really wasn\u2019t happy with it. \u201cThis show is amazing and when I saw the new episode was filler it actually made me depressed for a few minutes,\u201d he said, replying to news that the recap is the worst rated anime episode on Crunchyroll. Such stats show he\u2019s not alone. Introducing filler so early can be irritating, but it\u2019s important to remember these shows are made on a pretty intense schedule, with crew working on them only days ahead of their release. Recaps allow necessary breathing room, even if they can bum us out from time to time. Solo Leveling is now back on track, and so far there are no filler episodes scheduled.
