Solo Leveling anime episode schedule explained

The highly-anticipated Solo Leveling anime adaptation has made its grand debut – so here’s a look at the complete episode schedule.

Based on the popular manhwa by Chugong (Story) and Jang Sung-rak (Art), Solo Leveling is a new action fantasy series. It’s the most popular series of Winter 2024, directed by Shunsuke Nakashige.

Noboru Kimura is the screenplay writer, with Tomoko Sudo designing the anime characters and Hirotaka Tokuda designing the monsters. The series is set in a world that drastically changed 10 years ago after the appearance of a “gate” that connects the world to a realm of magic and monsters.

Modern weaponization doesn’t work on these monsters, but some humans are granted supernatural powers and are called “hunters.” The story follows Sung Jin-Woo, who hunts monsters tirelessly in low-rank Gates to pay for his mother’s medical bills and his sister’s education. Here’s a look at the complete episode schedule of Solo Leveling.

After being brutally slaughtered by monsters in a high-ranking dungeon, Jinwoo came back with the System, a program only he could see, that’s leveling him up in every way. Now, he’s inspired to discover the secrets behind his powers and the dungeon that spawned them.”

How to watch Crunchyroll from outside your location in 2023

Crunchyroll is the world’s best service for streaming anime, whether it’s One Piece, Attack on Titan, or Jujutsu Kaisen – and thanks to Private Internet Access, you can access the platform’s full library even if you’re outside the US.

If you’re abroad, here’s what you need to do to access Crunchyroll’s full selection – and it really is this simple:

  1. Sign up for Private Internet Access, which has ultra-fast servers and offers a secure, private connection wherever you are in the world.
  2. Connect to a location anywhere in the US. Private Internet Access allows you to choose from 24 different spots, from New Jersey to Santa Monica.
  3. Visit Crunchyroll online and start streaming all of your favorite animes – and perhaps some you’ve never watched.

Accessing Crunchyroll’s US roster makes a difference. For example, Hong Kong users only have access to less than 100 titles, while the US has nearly 1,000 movies and TV shows.

You can also stream anime on Crunchyroll for free with an ad-supported plan. Or you can pay for a subscription – there’s even a 14-day free trial if you can’t quite make up your mind.
