While it has become a norm for successful and popular manga to get anime adaptations to bring awe-inspiring stories to life, Manhwa is now joining the adaptation fray too. For the unversed, Manhwa is a style or general term for South Korean comic books and graphic novels. The fantastical survival story of Sung Jinwoo was first penned eight years back as a web novel by Chugong, serialized in Kakao’s digital comic platform KakaoPage.

After first spawning a webtoon adaptation in 2018 and inspiring a role-playing video game currently in development at Netmarble, A-1 Pictures has embraced the mantle of turning the action-fantasy Manhwa and webtoon into an anime series. Testifying the brilliance of the narrative, a Korean drama adaptation is also in development, along with a spinoff webtoon Solo Leveling: Ragnarok set to premiere in 2024.

As anticipated, the premier anime haven, Crunchyroll has seized the reins of streaming the webtoon’s anime adaptation. After first being announced at the Anime Expo 2022, Crunchyroll has finalized the dates to unleash the captivating story of Sung Jinwoo to the audience. Tower of God Season 2 and True Beauty were also announced at a recent Crunchyroll panel at Anime NYC and are set to air in 2024.

But for now, here’s the official release date and time you can enter into the enchanting world of Solo Leveling on Crunchyroll.
