Culture news Fans of Solo Leveling can be reassured: season 2 of the anime is no longer a pipe dream!
After an extremely anticipated season 1, the studio A-1 Pictures has finally granted fans' wishes and announced season 2 of Solo Leveling.
What is Solo Leveling?
“Solo Leveling” is undoubtedly one of the most popular webtoons in recent years. Although the work is the basis of light novels, it was the internet that allowed it to gain popularity. Since then, Solo Leveling has made its way to being adapted into an anime, which is still very rare for online manhwas. As a reminder, in this story strongly inspired by video games and leveling up, we find Sung Jinwoo, who is one of the weakest of his exploration team. After having a traumatic experience in a dungeon, with other hunters looking for monsters, the young man wakes up with new power. He quickly realizes that a technology called System is now with him. He is capable of making him become overpowered, if he follows the requested quests.
With his new abilities, Sung Jinwoo is now ready to take his revenge on life, but especially on monsters. If the pitch seems simple, it achieves the feat of attracting thousands of readers. As a result, Season 1 has been extremely anticipated. On MyAnimeListshe did pretty well with it a rating of 8.37 after its broadcast, even if the anime only rose to 199th place in the current series rankings. No problem for the A-1 Pictures studio, behind this adaptation, it was enough to order a season 2.
Season 2 is coming very soon
And yes, we didn't have to wait long before Crunchyroll, which broadcasts the anime in France, revealed the release date of the second season, which was fourth quarter 2024. With the teaser, fans were also able to discover a new artwork of Igris, the knight, who appeared in episode 11, only a few weeks ago. For now, there is no more information about Solo Leveling Season 2 — Arise from the Shadow — (its official name), but for many it would be more accurate to call it part 2; since it had been promised for a long time. Regardless, there will be 13 new episodes available by then. However, given what remains of the storyline in the webtoon, and if it is successful, we can hope for the announcement of a season three some time after the broadcast of the sequel. Of the 200 chapters of the manhwa, only 45 have already been covered, which promises Sung Jin Woo many more adventures.
