The popularity of Solo Leveling continues to rise, establishing itself as the most-watched series in Crunchyroll’s history. This work, created by South Korean author Chu-Gong, began its journey in 2016 and expanded into anime in 2024, capturing the attention of an increasingly broad fan base.
The most watched anime on Crunchyroll
Recently, Netmarble made an exciting announcement by revealing a new game titled Solo Leveling: KARMA This title is presented as an ARPG with roguelike elements and will feature an isometric perspective. Although the game will be available on PC, iOS, and Android and will be certified for Steam Deck, a specific release date has not yet been stipulated, leaving many enthusiasts wanting more information.
The official teaser, which has generated great anticipation, introduces an unprecedented plot, placing players in a 27-year episode in the universe of Sung Jinwoo. However, there are concerns regarding the involvement of the original manhwa writers in this new project, as there has been no confirmation of their collaboration. Nevertheless, the fidelity to the original style and universe seems to be maintained, which is a relief for its followers.
Despite the confusion and lack of details on the official game page, which only offers a brief Coming Soon, fans are eager for more information. On social media, communication has been limited; a single mention on X has been enough to intensify speculation about the future of this iconic story. With the conclusion of the second season of the anime just three months ago, the interest in “Solo Leveling” remains palpable.

The anime phenomenon Solo Leveling has reached new levels of success, becoming the most-watched anime in the history of Crunchyroll, according to a recent report from Sony. The series has surpassed titans like One Piece and Dragon Ball Daima, in addition to sweeping the Anime Awards, solidifying its popularity indisputably.
Solo Leveling, but not Solo Watching
Despite this resounding success, Solo Leveling fans are facing considerable uncertainty regarding its future. Since the conclusion of the second season, there has been no official announcement about the renewal of the series, which stands in stark contrast to the speed with which the second season was announced. This silence has left many followers wondering about the reasons behind the lack of updates from A-1 Pictures, the studio responsible for the adaptation.
It has been reported that the production of the third season has faced significant delays, attributed to planning and episode creation issues. Originally, Solo Levelin was scheduled to premiere in 2023, but these setbacks have pushed its release to January 2024. However, this additional time could benefit the visual and narrative quality of the series, a wait that is worthwhile considering the visual impact expected from each episode.
Additionally, there is concern that A-1 Pictures may be nearing the end of its contract to produce the anime, which opens the possibility for another studio to acquire the license, similar to what happened with Attack on Titan and Vinland Saga. The current situation of the studio, involved in multiple projects, could complicate its ability to continue developing Solo Leveling, leading fans to prepare for a considerable wait for the third season.
The recent success of ‘Solo Leveling’ has opened the doors to numerous adaptations of Korean webtoons, particularly highlighting ‘The Beginning After the End’, which has captured the attention of fans for years. The plot follows an old king who, after an unexpected death, reincarnates as a baby in a different world, retaining the memories of his previous life. However, despite its popularity, the first season of the anime has left much to be desired. It is not spared from criticism.

The recent success of ‘Solo Leveling’ has opened the doors to numerous adaptations of Korean webtoons, particularly highlighting ‘The Beginning After the End’, which has captured the attention of fans for years. The plot follows an old king who, after an unexpected death, reincarnates as a baby in a different world, retaining the memories of his previous life. However, despite its popularity, the first season of the anime has left much to be desired.
Not spared from criticism
The series has faced significant criticism, especially regarding the quality of the animation and the narrative pace. Fans have expressed their dissatisfaction to the point of demanding a remake of the first season, which failed to capture the essence of what made the webtoon so addictive. These issues have translated into a negative perception that has made it difficult for new viewers to engage with the work.
Despite these challenges, Crunchyroll has confirmed that the second season of TBATE is on the way, scheduled to premiere in 2026. Fans have been able to enjoy a brief teaser of the final chapter of the first season, which has sparked renewed interest in the series. The hope is that Studio A-Cat, responsible for the production, takes the feedback into account and improves both the quality of the animation and the pacing of the narrative.
There are rumors suggesting that if the studio takes a more careful approach, there could be opportunities to redeem the series and win back the favor of the audience. Although the release window has been announced for 2026, a launch towards the end of that year could allow TBATE to regain attention within the anime community.
The 2025 Anime Awards ceremony took place last night, making it clear which were the standout animes of the past year, according to the voting of Crunchyroll users. The big winner of the night was Solo Leveling, which took home an impressive total of seven awards, including the coveted titles of best anime, best ongoing series, and best action series.

The 2025 Anime Awards ceremony took place last night, making it clear which were the standout animes of the past year, according to the voting by Crunchyroll users. The big winner of the night was Solo Leveling, which took home an impressive total of seven awards, including the coveted titles of best anime, best ongoing series, and best action series. This popular series, based on the homonymous manhwa, has proven to be the undisputed favorite of the audience.
The Oscars of the otakus
Despite its remarkable success, Dan Da Dan, which has remained in the spotlight throughout 2024, only won three awards, which has surprised many, considering its great popularity. The series received two awards related to the same song from its soundtrack, highlighting a limitation in its overall recognition. For its part, Frieren took home the silver medal with four awards, establishing itself as a nostalgic series that has resonated in the public’s memory.
Kimetsu no Yaiba won a couple of awards, a figure that may seem modest, but surpasses other popular titles like One Piece, Bleach, and My Hero Academia, which left empty-handed. As for cinema, Look Back was recognized as the best film, while Your Color received mixed reviews and fell short of expectations in its narrative.
One of the most disappointing moments of the night was the lack of recognition for The Pharmacist’s Diaries, which only won an award for Best Seiyuu, despite being one of the most valued series of 2024. Additionally, titles that have had great success this year, such as Kaiju No. 8, Gluttons and Dungeons, and the remake of Ranma 1/2, failed to win any awards, highlighting the tough competition in the anime field.
Tras el éxito de Solo Leveling, el manhwa está resultando en una explosión, que ha llevado a la adaptación de un nuevo manhwa.
There was a time when anime was exclusively adaptations of manga. Sometimes adaptations of light novels, maybe a novel or two. Certainly, nothing from outside of Japan, or very occasionally, when working with production companies from other countries. But that has already changed forever. The industry has found a gold mine in manhwa, the Korean comic. Where that success has a clear name.
Solo Leveling is one of the most successful animes in recent years. Having also been adapted into a video game, expanding already over two seasons, it has been a resounding success in both manhwa, literature, and anime. That’s why it’s not surprising that studios have started to pay more attention to other Korean works that can be adapted. Among them, the latest great success that will be adapted is Tomb Raider King.
The announcement has been made by its creator, SAN. G, through his Twitter account, the announcement has come through Manga Mogura, one of the largest manga news outlets in the world. Without any official announcement from any studio, we don’t have any more information about the adaptation, apart from the fact that it exists and that we will still have to wait a long time for its release.
If you’re not up to date with one of the most successful manhwas of the present, Tomb Raider King begins with strange tombs appearing all over the world. Inside them, there are strange relics, some that give unimaginable powers to their owners, others terrible curses. The protagonist of this manhwa will make the determination to be the one who not only ventures into all the tombs, but also acquires all the relics that exist. Regardless of the powers or curses they may carry.
With such an interesting premise, Tomb Raider King has become one of the most followed works currently in Korea. If it caught your attention and you are eager to see the anime, we regret to inform you that you will still have to wait. What we know for sure is that its adaptation will not arrive until 2026. So it’s time to wait and see who will be in charge of bringing this popular work to life.
Solo Leveling is one of the most appreciated franchises by anime fans, something that is demonstrated by the number of pre-registrations for its first video game.
Sometimes we are not fully aware of the pull of certain franchises. It may seem that being popular among certain sectors does not make them so big, that what happens around them are not huge movements because they do not come from the most common mainstream. This makes it even more shocking when there is a huge success case among franchises outside the majority’s radar. As has been the case with Solo Leveling.
Solo Leveling: Arise is the first video game based on the franchise of light novels and Korean comics of the same name. As we told you in more detail recently, the game was announced by surprise, with a teaser trailer that barely clarified anything. The only thing we knew is that it would follow the same story as the original work and that it would be an Action RPG. Well, that hasn’t stopped it from reaching five million people pre-registered for the game’s launch in less than a week.
This makes the game an overwhelming success even before its release. It also means that people who play Solo Leveling: Arise from the start will do so with some extra rewards than they expected. As is usual in Asian mobile games, pre-registration comes with incentives that, if a certain number of registered users is reached, special items and in-game currency will be given to those who signed up before the launch. This also includes Solo Leveling: Arise, where its players have already secured a good amount of these rewards.
While it is true that the game has been presented to us with little information, it seems that Netmarble, the developing studio, has wanted to dose the information prudently. Because since the game’s announcement, more videos showing the content of Solo Leveling: Arise have been appearing.
With several character trailers, which show us beloved characters with a design that reminds us of their anime adaptation, it gives us a glimpse of the game’s mechanics and its focus on action. Something that seems to be sparking even more interest from fans of the franchise, given the amazing numbers that the pre-registration has already achieved. It doesn’t seem like they’re going to slow down anytime soon.
You can already play if you want
If you live in Canada, you’re in luck! The game has been released in your region in soft-launch. However, if you don’t live there, you can still play. All you need is a VPN like NordVPN and change your store region to register. In the following article, we’ll show you how to do it and how to start playing immediately.
Today, we’re talking about the most anticipated anime of 2024, focusing on the major new releases we can look forward to this year.
Although 2023 has been a great year for anime, that doesn’t mean that 2024 has to slack off in any way. In fact, on the horizon, we have some very promising series. While it is true that in this medium it is sometimes difficult to predict when a year is going to be good, since many unexpected things can happen, we are going to try at least to get a feel for a handful of things that we should keep an eye on. So that not everything catches us by surprise.
With adaptations of manga that have already been adapted in the past, there is always the risk of encountering a failure. Especially when the previous adaptation was a cult success. Something that happens with Bartender: Kami no Glass, but that will not prevent us from having faith for two very specific reasons: the trailer has given us hope and the name Mariko Kunisawa inspires confidence.
Bartender: Kami no Glass is about a bartender who is able to create exactly the drink that each person needs to drink at the exact moment of their life they are in. Something that releases their repressed emotions, thoughts, and memories, leading them to talk about how they feel and allowing them to move forward with their life. And if we say that the name Kunisawa inspires confidence, it’s because she is the scriptwriter of Ascendance of a Bookworm and The case files of Jeweler Richard, two series that are very solid in their script and the treatment of their characters and their psychological development. Exactly what this Bartender needs.
Dandadan
This year we have two series with the potential to sweep everything in their path. One of them is Dandadan. The reason is quite clear: no Shonen Jump manga has had the success that this work by Yukinobu Tatsu has had in a long time. Even if it hasn’t been published in any magazine, being published directly on the digital service Shonen Jump+, it has been a great success. With 3.2 million copies in circulation of a total of 12 volumes, which is a huge but not overwhelming number, and 360 million views on Shonen Jump+, which is a staggering number, the series is an undisputed success.
But in addition, for the adaptation to anime they have not chosen just anyone. They have decided that those who have the potential to turn it into a mass phenomenon should take charge. Behind it is Science Saru, responsible for Scott Pilgrim Takes Off or Devilman Cry Baby, so success is practically guaranteed. Putting Dandadan in our list of series to watch no matter what when it premieres in October.
Dungeon Meshi
We don’t have to go far to know about the other series with the potential to sweep everything in its path. Dungeon Meshi, has everything to succeed. It has a cult manga, it is inspired by Dungeons & Dragons, it is produced by Trigger studio and it is premiered on Netflix. Everything is in its favor to be a success, because absolutely nothing stands in the way of people enjoying the series.
In addition, it’s easy to connect with its premise. A group of adventurers must descend into an unprepared dungeon to save a companion who was left behind. Because of that, they will have to feed on what they find along the way, which is basically one thing: monsters. Delirious, hilarious, and very, very fun, it has the potential to be the first great anime of the year. And perhaps the great anime of the year, in general.
Korea has slowly but steadily entered the world of comics, drawing inspiration from manga but giving it its own personality. Very focused on its own style, with its own personality, they have achieved many successes, especially in the romance and action genres, where Japan seemed unbeatable. In this second case, there is now an anime adaptation of one of Korea’s most famous webtoons: Solo Leveling.
Produced by A-1 Pictures, who are premiering this season the second season of Mashle: Magic and Muscles, the story puts us in the shoes of a notably weak young man in a world of monster hunters with supernatural powers. At least, until a mysterious program chooses him as a lone player and gives him a powerful ability that makes him unstoppable. Packed with action, we can expect spectacular animation and lots of fights, with healthy doses of adventure and classic life-threatening situations typical of this type of stories. Exactly what we are looking for.
Tokidoki Bosotto Russia-go de Dereru Tonari no Alya-san
Making a list of the most anticipated anime of a year without including a romantic comedy feels like a waste. To begin with, it is one of the most represented genres in anime and although underrated, it usually has a more than acceptable average quality. In the case of 2024, the most promising one so far is Tokidoki Bosotto Russia-go de Dereru Tonari no Alya-san. Or translated into English, Alya sometimes hides her feelings in Russian.
The premise is very simple. A demotivated boy named Masachika who always sleeps in class has a Russian girl as his desk mate, nicknamed Alya, who is always complaining about him. But from time to time she makes flirty comments to him, of course, in perfect Russian. What she doesn’t know is that Masachika knows Russian. All of this leads to a series of entanglements and situations that will bring them closer over time in a charming series that will delight lovers of romantic comedies.
