Solo Leveling has kickstarted the Winter 2024 anime season, with numerous fans diving headfirst into its fantastical world on Jan. 6. Sung Jin-woo has already wooed the viewers with his kind, brave, and compassionate personality. But when are we seeing him again?
Weebs worldwide couldn’t contain their excitement when the popular web novel-turned-manhwa was first announced to get an anime adaptation in 2022. Solo Levelling has finally arrived on Crunchyroll after a successful two-year wait, with fans anticipating action, adventure, and entertainment-packed months ahead. The series is set in a world where hunters possessing supernatural abilities must battle terrifying monsters to save humanity from extinction.
Our hero for the journey is a notoriously weak E-rank hunter named Sung Jin-woo, who gets chosen as the sole player of a magical program called the System. This gives him a chance to level up in strength and transform any victim he kills into a devoted minion known as a shadow. With this new power, Jin-woo will rise to become humanity’s greatest hunter. But with great power, comes great responsibility.
Sung Jin-woo will soon find himself in the center of an endless struggle between two incredibly strong humanoid factions—Rulers and the Monarchs. The anime will bring this story to life over the coming months. It will adapt the 13-volume web novel spanning 22 story arcs. The first season of the anime is expected to be released in two parts or “cours” in anime terms.
Here is the full release schedule of Solo Leveling on Crunchyroll.
