Solo Leveling has achieved massive levels of success through what will be looked back on as a genius marketing tactic. There aren’t many shōnen series that have reached the heights of Solo Leveling, and it’s not hard to see why. Solo Leveling is in a league of its own. It’s one of the best, most fast-paced action series that’s been released in the past decade. No other show currently out can compete with Sung Jinwoo as he levels up.

Solo Leveling is currently going where no other anime series has gone on their social media channels. While most other series don’t post their main content, Solo Leveling is posting its best fights online for free. It’s a tactic no other series does, as Solo Leveling and Crunchyroll’s official YouTube channel will post the latest fights from the series just a few hours after they air.

Solo Leveling Is A Once-In-A-Generation Hit

There Aren’t Many Other Series As Succesful As Solo Leveling

Solo Leveling is one of the most succesful anime series in the past decade. The first season broke tons of records online before most people even really knew what the series was all about. Crunchyroll is one of the most popular streaming platforms for western audiences. For a few years, Jujutsu Kaisen held the record for most likes out of any series on the platform.

The first season of Solo Leveling shattered that record with ease, accumulating over 100,000 likes in a few days. While this record seems impressive enough, the second season of S olo Leveling broke it yet again. Season one of the series got 114,000 likes in two days. Season two got 129,000 likes in less than 24 hours.

After a New Milestone, Solo Leveling Is Poised to Overtake a Big One Piece Record

After beating Demon Slayer in its Crunchyroll ratings, Solo Leveling is now set to even topple One Piece as the most popular anime ever.

The stats speak for themselves. Most series that reach the heights of Solo Leveling can’t sustain the excitement they’ve generated. The second season of Solo Leveling proved that the series not only wasn’t slowing down, it was somehow getting even better.

Solo Leveling will end the second season with arguably the greatest arc in the series. The Jeju Island Arc is Solo Leveling at its peak, showing Jinwoo taking on a character who will eventually become one of his strongest Shadow Soldiers.

The Fights In Solo Leveling Define The Series

Fights In Solo Leveling Are Taken To A New Level

Fights are the most important part of any shōnen series. Sure, having great characters can feel like an important piece of the puzzle, but even the most interesting characters have nothing on series-defining fights. This is an area where Solo Leveling not only shines, but stands out.

If You Love Solo Leveling, You Have No Reason to Avoid Hunter x Hunter Anymore

Solo Leveling is one of the best series of the past few years, and when you compare it to another behemoth of shōnen anime, it’s easy to see why.

Solo Leveling has some of the best fights in anime. Jinwoo has changed a lot as a character as he’s gotten stronger, and his fights reflect that. The best fights in Solo Leveling’s first season showcased Jinwoo mainly by himself. He hadn’t accumulated all the Shadow Soldiers he now has in the second season, so he had to do it on his own.

One of the best moments in the entire series is Sung Jinwoo’s fight against Igris the Red. Jinwoo had only recently re-awoken, and Igris was his first real test. Igris was so strong that Jinwoo admitted if the Red Knight hadn’t thrown his sword down, he would have died.

Jinwoo was about to be beheaded when he decided he had enough. He dug down and became even stronger in the middle of the fight, beating Igris down viciously. It’s a fight that shows just how far Jinwoo has come. He started the season as the world’s weakest Hunter. By the end of it, it was clear he wasn’t going to stay at the bottom for long.

Solo Leveling Is Basically Bragging At This Point

Other Shōnen Series Should Take Note Of Solo Leveling’s Marketing Tactic

Solo Leveling is basically showing off, and they’re doing it in more than one way. Not only are they showing how great the fights are in the series, but they’re also showing just how fearless they are by posting them online for free. They’re fully confident that people who haven’t watched the series will see these fights and flock to whatever streaming service has them.

Sung Jinwoo’s fighting style is one of the most entertaining in anime. He usually uses a pair of daggers, allowing him to get up close and personal with even the strongest opponents in the franchise. He’s also an expert-level mage, using a few impressive spells to take his enemies down from a distance.

Jinwoo’s strength is second to none as well. He’s been leveling up his stats fairly evenly, and towards the end of the second season, he’s physically stronger than most of the strongest Hunters in Solo Leveling. He’s so strong that a single punch took Baran’s head off in an instant.

Solo Leveling is probably going to keep posting its best moments online for free, and even people who are already watching the series can’t help but be excited at the prospect of watching them one more time. It’s a powerful marketing move that other series, especially other shonen series, could learn from.
