I wonder how they are gonna play around the korean nationalism and anti-japanese ressentment this work clearly has. Webtoon already softened it a lot compared with the LN, but there is still some there.

I also wonder if they will do another rushfest, like GOH, TOG, Noblesse...all the korean stuff ever adaptated, you know.

Also, prep your eyes to fugly CGI shadows. You know it's gonna be this way. It doesn't have to be this way...

Funny, cuz some SL clones have actually a much better writting than SL itself. Not trolling, I swear, Omniscient Reader Viewpoint and SSS-Rank Suicide Hunter being easily the best ones (specially the first). Secondaries are actually respected there. Hope they one day get long, high budget adaptations.

Granted, not all. I did hated the Seoul Station Druid and the 2 Necromancer ones. Limit Breaker was mid, and trying to much to be a Gantz lovechild with SL. Return to Player disappointed me midway. Max Level Newbie could not caugh my attention, even with cool waifus, like paladin blonde nice girl and pocket vampire edgelady. Questism/Quest Supremacy is...okay, and that's all.

Oh right, I am fine with Omniscient Reader tbh. That does actually have better writing and I would go as far as to call it more thought-provoking. Easily better than SL, it's just not focused on the action I guess, people really like hype (me included). I've not touched SSS-Rank but I will now have a look into it.

Still, with how power-fantasy/isekai is turning up to be a huge success. I wouldn't be surprised if Korean power-fantasy RPG had its own boom. Although there are a lot of things to consider, like marketing, production and all the rest of it. So maybe it won't be so bad with how there are some limitations behind this all.

Lol looking at https://anilist.co/manga/105398/Solo-Leveling/ recommendations really shows how many clones this manhwa has 💀

well for one thing Solo Leveling itself is a clone of other Power Manhwas it's because of the quality of art and the power fantasy genre being near it's climax that it blew it instead of something like SSS-Suicide Hunter. (But on that note you guys should check out The Novels Extra (Remake) it's only 20 chapters right now but it has a similar premise to Omniscient Reader's Viewpoint just not as dark

I've heard great things about this so hopefully they do it justice and it doesn't end up like Tower of God or even worse, God of High School.
People on MAL refuse to actually enjoy watching anime.

Your taste in anime isn't a personality trait.

The Crunchyroll Industry Panel at Anime Expo announced on Sunday an anime adaptation of Chugong's Solo Leveling manhwa. The panel also revealed the main staff, teaser visual (pictured), and teaser promotional video. The anime is scheduled to premiere in 2023 on Crunchyroll.

Staff
Director: Shunsuke Nakashige (Megami-ryou no Ryoubo-kun., Sword Art Online: Alicization episode director)
Series Composition: Noboru Kimura (Kemono Jihen, Kyoukai Senki)
Character Design: Tomoko Sudou (Fragtime, Imawa no Kuni no Alice (OVA))
Music: Hiroyuki Sawano (86, Shingeki no Kyojin)
Studio: A-1 Pictures

Chugong began writing the action adventure series as a web novel on the Kakao website and was published by D&C Media from July 2016 to March 2018 in 14 volumes. A webtoon adaptation drawn by Sung-rak Jang began in Kakao in March 2018 and ended on December 29 last year.

Yen Press licensed the manhwa and web novel in English in August 2020 and shipped the fourth volume of the manhwa on May 10.

Synopsis
Ten years ago, "the Gate" appeared and connected the real world with the realm of magic and monsters. To combat these vile beasts, ordinary people received superhuman powers and became known as "Hunters." Twenty-year-old Sung Jin-Woo is one such Hunter, but he is known as the "World's Weakest," owing to his pathetic power compared to even a measly E-Rank. Still, he hunts monsters tirelessly in low-rank Gates to pay for his mother's medical bills.

However, this miserable lifestyle changes when Jin-Woo—believing himself to be the only one left to die in a mission gone terribly wrong—awakens in a hospital three days later to find a mysterious screen floating in front of him. This "Quest Log" demands that Jin-Woo completes an unrealistic and intense training program, or face an appropriate penalty. Initially reluctant to comply because of the quest's rigor, Jin-Woo soon finds that it may just transform him into one of the world's most fearsome Hunters. [Written by MAL Rewrite]

So excited to see an OP MC with the personality of a piece of cardboard stomping everything. So much tension, so interesting. Whatever, consumers will consume, and I'll get told I'm wrong because I don't get how good the writing of this manhwa actually is.

Not surprising but still really hyped for this. This is gonna be the first time I've read the source material before an anime adaptation was even announced.
I really enjoyed the first half especially of Solo levelling so if we get good animation and music then we're in for a treat.

Haou-Judai said:

Because it's crazy popular (it's even #9 on MAL) and so is gonna make a lot of money

Good question, the anti-japanese stuff (in the webtoon) wasn't that bad imo so hopefully they don't change stuff. Not even sure if they'll reach to those parts.

Just reading the synopsis makes me super hype about this anime especially that it's from A-1 Pictures !
It will be a miracle if this gets a full adaptation

Let's hope so, manhwa was finished already, so there is no reason not to fully adapt it, otherwise it will have few seasons.

Yeah , still I hope we get 2 cours instead of multiple 12 episodes per season but that depends on how much the source material available I guess

For your Lord has decreed that you worship none but Him. And honour your parents. If one or both of them reach old age in your care, never say to them ˹even˺ ‘ugh,’ nor yell at them. Rather, address them respectfully.

Solo Leveling seems to be extremely popular, a lot of people like it, and apparently a lot of people wanted to see an adaptation. Why doesn’t this deserve an adaptation?

How is it not? Everyone except Hiroyuki Sawano has had no big roles in good anime, and he has no impact on anything other than music. Reason I mentioned Crunchyroll is because they adapted three popular webtoons and only one was moderately well received and even then it was disliked by webtoon readers. Doubt anything is changing here.

What I'm trying to say is that not enough of the staff has been revealed yet, we don't know who is doing the cgi, art direction, sound work, editing, background art, photography and all that stuff.
The info we have on the "staff" is still very basic.

And Crunchyroll being on the committee doesn't mean the show is gonna be bad, Odd Taxi for example was co-produced by Cr and that was very well received, there are a lot of factors involved when making a decent adaptation and the producers is just one of many.

The manwha is so good in visual quality that I have very low expectation this would be a good adaptation.

Hope this will air until that Chimera Ant arc at least.(yes this manhwa has chimera ants too, different name i forgot)

Beyond ant arc, the story starts to be less interesting too bad.
