[REC] 5 Anime to Watch If You Loved Solo Leveling

Just finished Solo Leveling Season 2 and needed more shows with that "weak to overpowered" dopamine hit. After digging around, here are 5 that actually scratched the itch:

1. The God of High School - Fast fights, flashy moves, less story but great action
2. Tower of God - Weak boy climbs a mysterious tower. Season 2 is out now.
3. Arifureta - Edgy, guns in a fantasy world, same "bullied to badass" arc
4. That Time I Got Reincarnated as a Slime - OP protagonist building an army. Less dark, same satisfying power growth.
5. Hunter x Hunter (Chimera Ant arc) - Slow burn, but the best power system in anime. Gon's transformation hits different.

I made a quick video breaking down why each one fits if you want more detail Comment down i will drop the link 

What other shows would you add to this list? Always looking for more recommendations.
