A ‘Solo Leveling’ vs ‘Demon Slayer’ Competition Doesn’t Amount to Much Because of Their Shared Flaw

The number one position is still within the grasp of One Piece, but Solo Leveling is not far behind. Demon Slayer used to be in the second position, but now it has been pushed to the 3rd rank.
Nevertheless, their popularity is raising questions amongst fans who understand the hype but not the appeal. Just because they are famous, does that automatically mean they have good stories, or maybe other factors are at play that masterfully hide their flaws?
