Not much more to say, while the broader context is slightly subdued this season in favor of heightened action and drama Solo Leveling Season 2: Arise from the Shadow remains an astounding title and is unquestionably among the top of the shonen category. Go to Full Review

Tarif S Jan 6 In short, an amazing season. The storyline is incredibly beautiful compared to other anime I've seen. But I was slightly upset when the series ended. I wanted it to never end! I hope the makers bring out season 3 very soon.🙌🏻💥⚡ See more 右 Right 阿 Nov 17 My favorite anime !! 😍 See more Tygari D Oct 1 more of season one in season two without the orginal excitement. See more Jordon C Jul 27 The first season wasn't anything special but the 2nd season really blew me away. This show is a more focused and dramatic version of one punch man. The main character isn't always losing and then crying about it like so many shows these days. He's the hero and he's going to save the day. This season tells a great story with really good pacing and almost no filler at all. Also the animation is top tier. They set up next season with plenty of intrigue and mystery. I can't wait for season 3! See more Ryan H. @RyGuy Jul 16 This show keeps getting better! Jinwoo is building an army while turning heads of S Rank hunters. See more Mark G Jul 10 It’s very simple, kinda too game-like, and doesn’t try to be too deep, but I still really enjoyed it. Clearly made for gamers, and it just works. The animation is great, fights are super entertaining, and the character growth is solid. The story starts basic but gets surprisingly catchy by the end See more Read all reviews
