This eye-catching new Funko Pop! figure adds a unique twist to the Solo Leveling lineup, marking a significant milestone in both the anime and Funko worlds.
Whether you’re a die-hard fan of Solo Leveling or a serious Funko Pop collector, the Sung Jinwoo (Gold) variant is a must-have addition. With the series now recognized as 2025’s Anime of the Year, demand for high-quality collectibles tied to the franchise is skyrocketing.
About the Solo Leveling Series
Solo Leveling is an anime adaptation based on the popular South Korean web novel and webtoon written by Chugong and illustrated by Dubu (Jang Sung-rak).
Originally serialized in 2016, the webtoon quickly built a massive global following for its sharp visuals and compelling narrative. The anime adaptation, produced by A-1 Pictures, premiered in January 2024 and immediately gained widespread acclaim.
The series follows Sung Jinwoo, an E-rank hunter who is considered the weakest of all. However, after surviving a deadly dungeon and receiving a mysterious system, Jinwoo gains the ability to level up and grow stronger, ultimately becoming one of the most formidable hunters in the world.
The show blends action, suspense, and character development in a way that resonates deeply with anime fans.
Season 1 aired from January 6 to March 30, 2024, and consists of 12 episodes. It covers the foundational arcs: Jin-Woo’s early growth, the dungeon incident that changes everything, and the initial awakening of his new powers. The anime follows the manhwa closely but refines pacing and design to suit a broader global audience.
Season 2, titled Solo Leveling: Arise from the Shadow, premiered on January 5, 2025, and concluded on March 30, 2025, with 13 episodes. It picks up immediately after Season 1, diving into more advanced arcs including the Red Gate, Demon Castle, and Retesting arcs. Jin-Woo’s transformation accelerates as he commands a growing army of shadows and climbs the hunter ranks with terrifying speed.
The season further expands the worldbuilding and hints at the looming threat from beyond the gates.
The anime is available internationally on platforms like Crunchyroll, Netflix, and Amazon Prime Video, with Japanese audio and multiple dubbed/subtitled options. A special compilation film, Solo Leveling: ReAwakening, featuring a recap of Season 1 and early Season 2 content, was released in late 2024.
As of now, no third season has been confirmed, but given the ongoing popularity and available source material, future seasons are likely on the horizon.
