Solo Leveling
Plot / Synopsis

In a realm where formidable hunters — individuals with extraordinary powers — must combat perilous creatures to safeguard humanity from imminent destruction, an infamously feeble hunter named Sung Jinwoo finds himself entangled in an interminable struggle for survival. On a fateful day, narrowly escaping an overwhelmingly dominant dual dungeon that nearly obliterates his entire party, an enigmatic program known as the System designates him as its solitary participant and bestows upon him the exceedingly rare capacity to advance in prowess, transforming those he slays into devoted minions, known as shadows.

Embarking on a quest, Jinwoo confronts a diverse array of adversaries, be they human or monstrous, all while unraveling the enigmas concealed within the dungeons and uncovering the authentic origins of his extraordinary abilities.

Solo Leveling Anime Trailer Review


So what is there to say about the Solo Leveling anime trailers for its upcoming Japanese animated series? As a fan who first stumble upon Jang Sung-rak's manhwa, then when I caught up to the latest webtoon chapter, and finally, finishing it on Chugong's originally authored novel, I can confidently say that I am exhilirated for this anime adaptation. Why wouldn't a fan be? A-1 Pictures directly adapted the designs of the late-Dubu in Solo Leveling's original webtoon run. Fans like us already know what to expect in terms of the story and writing, but seeing those badass moments fully animated will bring shiver down our collective spines.
I cannot help but be at awe at how the Japanese studio stick to the source material in terms of the design of the characters. Character Designer Tomoko Sudo gave it justice from what we've seen so far. For the uninitiated, Solo Leveling is a modern action fantasy series where the series centers on a chosen one who will rise up to challenge the many monstrosities that changed their society and could very well destroy the world and reality itself. Anyone can go read Solo Leveling online or on their respective standalone platforms to learn more about the Shadow Monarch Sung Jinwoo and the colorful characters that would accompany and challenge him along his journey of growth, pain, and triumph. Initially slated for a Q1 2024 release, it was somewhat disappointing that the release date was moved to Winter of 2024; but I guess if it looks this great, we can wait a bit more to get phenomenal animation and a true to form anime adaptation of Solo Leveling.
