The studio previously shared a behind-the-scenes look at the production for the TV anime.

Solo Leveling was the most watched anime on Crunchyroll in 2024, and it has consistently been breaking many records on the platform and putting up huge numbers on YouTube and other platforms. It even became Crunchyroll’s most viewed anime of all time in June last year.

We can only assume that a full Solo Leveling movie will also deliver in terms of engagement. Previously, the second season premiered as part of the Solo Leveling: ReAwakening movie, which featured a recap of the first season along with the first two Season 2 episodes.

You can watch the concept video for Season 2 below.

About Solo Leveling

The story began as a web novel titled Only I Level Up (나 혼자만 레벨업), written by Chugong (a pseudonym). It was serialized digitally starting in 2016 on the Korean platform KakaoPage.

In 2018, the novel was adapted into a webtoon (a digital comic format optimized for mobile reading) by REDICE Studio, a South Korean studio known for high-quality manhwa (Korean comics). The webtoon’s art was drawn by Jang Sung-rak, better known by his pen name DUBU. The script was initiallyadapted to the webtoon format by Gi So-Ryeong (2018–2019)​, while h-goon took over from 2019 up until its end in 2023. Tragically, DUBU passed away in July 2022 due to chronic health issues.
