Solo Leveling Producer Shares Behind-The-Scenes Look at Season 2
Jinwoo Sung is returning this year and Producer Atsushi Kaneko has some new things to share about Season Two.
It takes a village to make an anime mountain and several creators work to bring Solo Leveling's anime adaptation to life. Arriving later this year, A-1 Pictures wasted no time in bringing back the fan-favorite protagonist Jinwoo Sung as he continues to bulk up to conquer a challenge that just might result in saving his own mother's life. In some new social media posts, Producer Atsushi Kaneko has shared some new stills from season two to give fans a hint at what is to come for the brutal anime adaptation.
Solo Leveling became a hit thanks to its stellar animation along with its amazing story that follows an E-Rank Hunter who is granted the opportunity to level up in a way that no one else has. While Jinwoo found himself gaining strength enough to survive some dangerous locales that net him a living, the game has changed as he is now training to make sure his mother survives. One unexpected location has arrived wherein he might be able to snag a magical elixir that can cure any disease and/or injury, and Jinwoo's mom is at the top of the list.
Jinwoo's Season 2: First Look
While Jinwoo has been leveling up, it's been no easy task to do so. Luckily, Sung has a major ace up his sleeve thanks to the season one finale as the anime protagonist gained a new class. Now gaining the powers of a necromancer, Kaneko shared both a new look at Jinwoo along with some of the villains he is set to fight.

So when an opportunity arises for a bigger payout, he takes it...only to come face-to-face with a being whose power outranks anything he's ever seen! With the party leader missing an arm and the only healer a quivering mess, can Jinwoo somehow find them a way out?"
