Great ending man everything wrapped up with Jeju island and now we got new characters for the next season this whole season was a Sakuga fest man and it was AMAZING to watch bc the amount of goosebumps I was getting bc A-1 was uplifting the source material by 100 FOLD. 10/10 season for me man I love it😩🔥😩🔥😩

Jinwoo was seriously aura farming so badly at the end man with his shadow soldiers kneeling down and him asking who’s next was SO cold man I forgot how cool Jinwoo was from the manhwa man and I remember there’s gonna be even more moments like when he talks big shit at the world conference with all the world leaders I CANT WAIT!!!😭😭😭

Cha fine ass really doesn’t even know she’s in love in with bro talkin bout “I wanna stand shoulder to shoulder” with bro like girl you in love💀

That jiggle physics with Lee Joohee was necessary for the plot and I LOVED it😫

Anyways down bad remarks aside great season 10/10 I can’t wait for season 3 in 2026 (hopefully)🔥🔥🔥🙌🏽

Same as the last season but with more "eye candy" due to a higher budget. If you're looking for something similar where the MC "aura farms" then read Gantz.

However, some critics have pointed out that the episode's adaptation from the manhwa felt rushed, potentially impacting the depth of certain scenes. Despite this, the episode effectively ties up loose ends while introducing new characters and plotlines, leaving viewers eager for the next season.

Great ending to a solid run. While not as stunningly visual as a gem.
At least as its first season start to finish.

The consistency and well animated sequences, when appropriate to context, were a strength rarely seen. And, that is a good indication for how well season 3 is going to be overall.

Here's looking forward to what will come! And, excellent work so far.

Man, seeing Byung as a shadow was pretty wholesome and a good farewell to him. Bro died a hero and had the chance to say goodbye to his bro.

His new blades and sword from Baran are awesome.

BERU JOINED THE TEAM. He seems the most loyal shadow soldier after Igris lol.

It was a good ending episode. It was nice to see Jinwoo using his dragon lol.

Beru was just blitzing through the ants. Not to mention Sung has over a thousand shadow soldiers now if I'm not wrong. Those ants are a huge addition to his army. He has flying ones too.

Who was the new hunter who one shot those stray ants? Is he from Japan too? Also who were those semi monster looking dudes in the cave? Did they plan this? Why is Jinwoo's dad spying on them? Shit's getting interesting now :D

Overall I have to say whatever Solo Levelling is doing isn't ground breaking or revolutionary. It's not a masterpiece in any way. But is it fun to watch? Fuck yeah. It does the same formula many shounen anime do; but it does it well and executes it beautifully. Cliche which is well done, with beautiful animation and a very enjoyable watch. 7/10

An incredible anime with great animation and a badass character like Jin Woo. I really love is power and his abilty and obviously the fact that he was the strongest character among the other. I really hope that we can get a second season as soon as possible because i can't wait to see season 2.

Just finished. God dam was it fun to watch. The constant Aura farm of this dude is too funny. Specially that final scene with everyone kneeling. This is super entertaining. Can't wait to watch what comes next.

Hopefully it doesn't get too boring with Guild business.

It's nice to watch, but beside episodes 9 and 12, nothing is particularly striking. It's once again a series of simple fight without a very interesting narration. I'm really not in the group who claims it at the best fiction of all time.

Great Episode, but i really wanted him to keep the S-Rank Healer. Would have made him stronger in long battles.

Lets see if he ever gets his own healer. Seems healer is the only role his shadow gang is missing.

I felt a good chunk of this season was dull but there was a few good fights in this. Story wise it isn't all that interesting but still entertaining to watch.

The final episode deals with the aftermath of the Jeju Island raid. A key focus is on Jinwoo saving Cha Hae-in, potentially using a risky method involving his powers over death. This episode also introduces new characters and hints at future storylines, including Jinwoo's plans for creating a guild. It feels like a "celebratory victory lap" while also setting up future arcs.

I binge-read the entire manhwa -even the unequal epilogues- between watching the previous episode and the season finale. I was too impatient to wait for a week for this ep and then a year or more for the rest of the story.

Assuming the anime continues I could see two more seasons with fewer or no cuts, since we're already past the middle point of the main story. I strongly doubt the epilogues will be adapted, though the last part of the main story, which was quite rushed in the manhwa, could be fleshed out better in the anime.

My rating for both seasons is 9/10.

I watched every single episode of this season, week by week, from January 5 to March 30, and I have to say—this anime is what finally got me into reading manga. Before this, only Lookism had nudged me a bit towards webtoons and manga, but Solo Leveling really sealed the deal for me.

🌟 Why It Resonated:
Sure, there are "better anime" out there, but the buzz around Solo Leveling has opened the door for a ton of manhwa and web novels to get their own anime adaptations. I truly believe it deserves all the attention it’s getting.

⚔️ Overpowered, Yet Enjoyable:
Our main character, Jin-Woo, is incredibly overpowered—but the way it’s presented makes it fun rather than cringeworthy. The visual storytelling, especially his aura, shadow army, and overall presence, is so well done that we, as viewers, can’t help but root for him to take charge on the battlefield.

You want him to step in → show off → and wrap things up.

A-1 Pictures really did a great job overall.

🌀 The Downsides (If We’re Being Critical):
A few important scenes from the manga were left out—chapters that added emotional weight or depth to the story.

There were also some moments of lackluster animation—you’ll definitely catch those if you’re a manga reader or an action enthusiast.

🌍 My Personal Take:
This anime is creating a huge buzz in India—and honestly, that makes me really happy. I’ve watched it in Japanese, English, and Hindi because I just can’t get enough of it. And sure, I know it’s not perfect. If I were to judge it critically, I’d probably rate it somewhere between a 7 and a 9 based on story, animation, pacing, and all that.

But from a fan’s perspective?
For the emotions, the nostalgia, and how it got me into manga...

It’s a solid 10/10. No question about it. 🔥
Shadow Army, arise!

Missed opportunity to name Ant King "Beruem".
Also lol at Joo-Hee suddenly receiving jiggle physics for like 1 second. Not gonna lie, that sure caught me off guard.

Oh, so that mysterious Hunter with twin swords was from China? Seriously, all these mfs speaking the same language and the show absolutely sucking at making some sort of distinction between countries smh.

Utterly disappointing final arc though I wasn't really expecting something different from this show's writing. Japanese Hunters ended up being fodder despite the show presenting them as considerably strong foes, Korean Hunters who were portrayed as weaker than their counterparts from Japan ended up surviving because plot but in the end, none of this matters given author made all of them useless in order to have almighty MC as the only capable dude in this work of fiction... again.

Overall, another meh season of Solo Leveling that's only bearable to watch because of outstanding animation and top tier soundtrack by Sawano. Writing-wise, it was as mediocre as Season 1 if not more, any remaining sense of danger got utterly demolished now that MC has a freaking army of mega OP Shadows and Cha Hae-In continues to be the most bland eye candy main heroine/love interest in existence (Joo-Hee was done so dirty lol).

5/10 - Not really looking forward to a third season but we all know it's gonna come eventually. A-1 Pictures has clearly found their "Demon Slayer", after all.

I did not see that coming.

It was genius of Jinwoo to temporarily revive Byung-gun Min to heal Hae-in. This time around when Yoonho put his hand on Jinwoo’s shoulder it wasn’t out of arrogance, but a heartfelt request for the sake of his friend who never liked being a Hunter. I love how Jinwoo respected that and released the extraction once he was done saving Hae-in, and the fact that he healed her without Jinwoo having to give him the order.

There was something different when Jinwoo extracted the black ant’s shadow. Firstly, HE CAN TALK! Secondly, it has General Rank. If this is a new rank, chances are now Beru is Jinwoo’s strongest shadow, meaning that Jinwoo is likely stronger than Igris now (he probably has been since becoming an S-rank Hunter to be honest). Also there was the abyss thing that Jinwoo was in initially.

Thanks to Jinwoo, nobody else had to die during this raid, but the media brings up the same point that I thought about when he arrived. If Jinwoo was a part of the raid from the very beginning, there wouldn’t have been as many casualties, and Jinwoo himself acknowledges this, so he knows it’s true. Due to what was on camera, everybody knows about how powerful he is, so his life will definitely change.

I’m glad that Jinwoo and Jinho are starting a guild and it seems that Song-yi Han is excited about being a member. Honestly I don’t think the combined efforts of an entire guild will top what Jinwoo can do, especially since his army is evergrowing.

Of course when Jinwoo enters the B-rank gate, it immediately turns into a Red Gate, but we know he’ll be fine.

More importantly, who are those two mysterious people in Jeju Island and were they talking about how Jinwoo was given the power of the system, or was that conversation unrelated to that? We know that Il-Hwan was listening in, so there’s some stuff going on there that we’ll likely see in Season 3 (I’m assuming there will be a Season 3).

MAN I’M HYPED, BUT SAD THIS SEASON HAS CONCLUDED AT THE SAME TIME…
