Solo Leveling Season 3: What You NEED to Know!

The animated adaptation of “Solo Leveling” has wrapped up another sensational season, capping off the Jeju Island Arc with a bang. Remarkably, Season 2 of “Solo Leveling” surpassed the accomplishments of its predecessor, leaving fans eagerly anticipating what lies ahead for Jinwoo in Season 3 and when they might get to witness it. Given the escalating popularity of “Solo Leveling”, a third season is highly likely, and here’s a peek at what fans can look forward to regarding plot, characters, and, above all, battles in the upcoming installment.

Although an official confirmation for Season 3 of “Solo Leveling” is yet to be made, everyone is keeping a close watch on the series’ official website and social media platforms since a renewal appears imminent. The first season premiered in Winter 2024, followed by Season 2 in January 2025, indicating that fans might anticipate Season 3 of “Solo Leveling” around Winter 2026 or beyond. Studio A-1 Pictures is set to animate the upcoming season, and while the exact number of episodes remains undisclosed, a single-cour season seems likely. Though the wait for the next installment might be lengthy, fans are eagerly awaiting more after the Jeju Arc as the anime promises to intensify the pace even further, shedding light on the series’ major mysteries such as Jinwoo’s power origins and the enigmatic System that guides him in Season 3.

What to Expect from Season 3 of Solo Leveling

Essentially, Season 2 of Solo Leveling consists of 13 episodes, each covering approximately 65 chapters, divided into six distinct story arcs. On the other hand, Season 1 adapted just 45 chapters in its entire run. This suggests that the current season is moving at a faster pace, and it’s expected that A-1 Pictures will maintain this speed for Season 3. If the adaptation rate remains consistent, Season 3 of Solo Leveling could potentially cover between 45 to 65 chapters from the source material. In terms of story arcs, this would likely include the Recruitment Arc, the Ahjin Guild Arc, the Double Dungeon Arc, the Japan Crisis Arc, the International Guild Conference Arc, and the Monarch War Arc, which span chapters 111 to 166 in the manhwa.

Choosing a moderately lengthy 55 episodes for the anime could potentially improve the rhythm, an issue frequently raised by viewers during Season 2. However, it’s also plausible that Season 3 might encompass both the Final Battle Arc and the epilogue, which together total just 9 chapters of the original story. Consequently, Season 3 might very well be the concluding season of Solo Leveling, assuming they manage the pacing appropriately. For now, this speculation should be treated with caution until further details emerge.

In the world of Solo Leveling, romance between Jinwoo and Cha Hae-in might blossom more in Season 3 amidst the impending battles. However, what truly captures attention is the unveiling of the System’s origins and its genuine purpose – a secret yet hidden from Jinwoo. The intrigue surrounding Jinwoo’s powers as a Player was hinted at in Season 2 through the peculiar issue with Baruka and Esil, and this major revelation is poised to come to light in Season 3.

What Characters and Fights to Expect in Season 3 of Solo Leveling

In Season 3 of “Solo Leveling”, the spotlight will move from the Korean and Japanese S-rank hunters featured in Season 2 towards the enigmatic National Level Hunters, including Thomas Andre and Liu Zhigang who have briefly appeared earlier. Additionally, a few more S-rank hunters from various countries will be introduced. However, it’s the mysterious new shadow of Jinwoo, Beru, that is expected to captivate audiences as we delve deeper into his distinctive character in the upcoming season.

Regarding the action itself, Season 3 is set to deliver numerous thrilling confrontations, given the addition of more top-tier gates. Some anticipated showdowns include Jinwoo versus Hwang Dongsoo, Jinwoo versus Thomas Andre, and most intriguingly, Jinwoo against the System’s Creator. If Season 3 encompasses both the Monarchs War Arc and the Final Battle Arc, viewers might want to brace themselves for the intense battle between Jinwoo and the three monarchs, as well as the epic fight against Antares.

Where to Pick Up Solo Leveling’s Manhwa After Season 2

In the world of “Solo Leveling”, I’ve found myself observing that Season 2, Episode 13 corresponds to Chapters 104 to 107, half of Chapter 108, omitting Chapter 109, but fully adapting Chapter 110 – a significant milestone marking the end of Season 1 in the manhwa. For those eagerly awaiting the continuation of the anime’s storyline, I recommend delving into the manhwa from Chapter 108 onwards to catch up on the skipped content. If you’re curious about where to read this captivating tale, you’ll find all 179 chapters, including an additional epilogue, available on Tapas and Tappytoon. Enjoy your journey!

Reading “Solo Leveling,” with stunning artwork by Jang Sung-rak (also known as DUBU), is like diving into an engaging and accessible world for those new to manhwa and webtoons. Just as the anime, this manhwa keeps a swift, thrilling tempo all through, making it hard to put down. Additionally, the series boasts a spin-off manhwa called “Solo Leveling: Ragnarok,” which is regularly updated with new chapters on Tapas every week. This means that “Solo Leveling” looks promising for Season 3.
