He also mentioned that Solo Leveling Season 3 might return, depending on fan demand.
A-1 Pictures is currently waiting to determine audience interest before confirming the next installment. Fans should keep an eye on Jump Festa 2025 or AnimeJapan 2025 for further updates on Solo Leveling Season 3.
Solo Leveling Season 2
Solo Leveling is an anime television series adapted from Chugong's South Korean web novel of the same name. After the success of the first season, a second season titled Solo Leveling: Arise from the Shadow was announced. Produced by A-1 Pictures, the season aired from January 5 to March 30, 2025, on Tokyo MX and other networks.
It was directed by Shunsuke Nakashige, with scripts by Noboru Kimura, character designs by Tomoko Sudo, and music composed by Hiroyuki Sawano. The storyline continues directly from the events of the first season, following Sung Jinwoo as he begins to harness his newfound powers as the Shadow Monarch.
While concealing his abilities from those around him, the plot takes a dramatic turn when a mysterious hunter—who had been missing for nearly ten years—returns with a chilling warning of an impending catastrophe.
Solo Leveling Season 2 Plot
The story of Solo Leveling unfolds in a world that changed drastically after mysterious "Gates" began appearing globally, linking Earth to other dimensions filled with dangerous dungeons and monsters. To combat these threats, some humans awakened as "Hunters" with supernatural abilities. However, most Hunters remain locked into the same power level after awakening.
Sung Jinwoo, once dubbed "The Weakest Hunter of All Mankind", defied this rule. During a perilous raid inside a rare double dungeon, he gained the unique ability to "Level Up"—a trait no other Hunter possessed. As he fought through increasingly difficult battles, he completed a special quest called the "Job Change Quest" and became the Shadow Monarch, granting him the power to command an army of shadow soldiers.
With this newfound power, Jinwoo now sets his sights on a personal mission: to find the materials needed for the "Holy Water of Life" to save his ailing mother. This journey marks a major turning point in his story, blending intense action with emotional depth.
