A-1 Pictures Producer Updates Fans on Solo Leveling Season 2
Solo Leveling is based on the popular web novel by Chu-Gong and is gaining traction in the dark fantasy anime genre. The series follows Jinwoo Sung, an 18-year-old who, after a near-death experience, gains the ability to dramatically increase his powers through a mysterious interface known as the System. This transformation turns him from “the world’s weakest Hunter” into one of its most formidable fighters.
