Warning: The following contains spoilers for Solo Leveling’s Manhwa and Solo Leveling: Ragnarok’s Manhwa and Light Novel!!Many fans are well aware that Sung Jinwoo isSolo Leveling’sstrongest character by a considerable margin. However, despite Jinwoo’s impressive abilities and limitless potential,Solo Leveling: Ragnarok’s protagonist, Sung Suho, may be on the right track to surpass him.
With Jinwoo going away to facethe cosmic threat of the Itarimon his own, Sung Suho became Earth’s official protector. Thanks to the strength inherited from Jinwoo and Cha Hae In and his sealed potential, Suho’s skills already seem superior to the other hunters. Yet, due to his lack of fighting experience and his father’s immense power as the Shadow Monarch, many fans question whether Suho has what it takes to claim the title of thestrongest character inSolo Leveling’s franchiseone day.
Sung Suho’s Powers In Solo Leveling: Ragnarok Explained
Sung Suho Gains a Different Class Than His Father
Sung Suho is initially touted as the “successor of the Shadow Monarch,” being able to use amazing skills like Ruler’s Authority when he was a baby. Later, inSolo Leveling: Ragnarok’s manhwa, after Beru awakens his powers,Suho gains quick mastery of the Shadow Monarch powers, being able to use skills like Monarch’s Domain, Shadow Extraction, and Shadow Exchange. Additionally, Suho gains theShadow Creation skill, which allows him to make one of his soldiers an item or weapon that he can equip to fight. This is a great skill that Jinwoo isn’t using inSolo Leveling’s original series.
Sung Suho owes much of his victories to his incredible resilience and quick learning, becoming the first hunter to be granted abilities by Monarchs
Yet, compared with the level of his father throughoutSolo Leveling’s story, Sung Suho is neither the strongest nor the most experienced fighter inRagnarok, as he has yet to reach his real potential, starting as a weak E-Rank hunter. Sung Suho owes much of his victories to his incredible resilience and quick learning, becoming the first hunter to be granted abilities by Monarchs, using the beast possession ability after meeting Gray, which enhances his strength in battle.
In chapter 47 ofSolo Leveling: Ragnarok’s manhwa, Suho has to choose between three classes: shadow’s heir, soul striker, and a hidden class. ButSuho decides to follow a different path than the one written by the system, choosing to merge the three classes and gaining the title of Irregular: White Shadow. The extent of Suho’s new powers will be explored in the second season ofSolo Leveling: Ragnarok’s manhwa.
Solo Leveling: Ragnarok’s Sung Suho vs Sung Jinwoo: Who Is More Powerful?
Sung Suho Is On Another Level In Solo Leveling: Ragnarok’s Novel
Suho is still far from his father’s level at the end ofSolo Leveling, and the gap between them is even greater when Jinwoo’s current strength is taken into consideration. Jinwoo has reached an unimaginable scale inSolo Leveling: Ragnarok, facing divine beings from outer space due to having become a full-fledged Shadow Monarch and being able to beat death itself. Due to his unlimited potential and that he is constantly fighting the Itarim, Jinwoo’s powers keep increasing, and he keeps adding new soldiers to his shadow legion.
InSolo Leveling: Ragnarok’s novel, which follows a different storyline from the manhwa,Suho is not only already considered a National Level Hunter but has also walked a different path from his father, training with Antares to become his successor and gaining the title of Monarch of Transcendence in addition to being the Guardian of the World Tree in chapter 348.
Yet, when Suho asks Antares if he is closer to his father, theMonarch of Destruction states that his powers are still insignificant compared to Jinwoo. Additionally, inSolo Leveling: Ragnarokchapter 358, as Suho has his first encounter with an Itarim, he is incredibly weak compared to its immense power, which creates a striking contrast considering that Jinwoo has been protecting the Earth from these beings for several years.
Will Suho Be Able To Ever Surpass Jinwoo?
Sung Suho Continues to Grow in Solo Leveling: Ragnarok
Unfortunately, Jinwoo’s power is almost impossible to overcome. Despite the odds being against him, though, Suho is incredibly ambitious and has stated that he plans to become stronger than the apostle of Itarim, the monarchs, and even his father, Jinwoo. Upon hearing this, Beru stated that he believes it is currently impossible, but that he will be cheering the young hunter on. Also, there’s no doubt that if there is someone with the potential to ever stand out next to Jinwoo, it’s Suho.
Solo Leveling: Ragnarokis Suho’s story, and he is constantly training, increasing his strength exponentially, just like his father did, thanks to the system. With Jinwoo currently on the sidelines and watching him grow,there is a chance of Suho someday acquiring a totally new skill that takes him closer to his father’s level. This has been seen with the developments at the end of the first season ofSolo Leveling: Ragnarok’s manhwa, with Suho gaining an unpredictable class that will take him on a different route than his father. So readers should wait and see Sung Suho’s evolution inSolo Leveling: Ragnarok.
