What is solo leveling manga?

Solo Leveling is originally a South Korean web novel written by Chugong. It was later adapted into a webtoon (digital comic) illustrated by Dubu (REDICE Studio). The webtoon gained immense popularity worldwide for its compelling story, stunning art, and thrilling action sequences.

The story revolves around Sung Jinwoo, initially the weakest hunter (individuals with supernatural abilities who fight monsters that appear from mysterious portals). He is often referred to as the "Weakest Hunter of All Mankind."

After a near-death experience in a high-rank dungeon, Jinwoo gains a unique ability called the "System." This System allows him to level up his powers indefinitely, unlike other hunters who have fixed abilities. He embarks on a journey to become the strongest hunter, facing increasingly powerful monsters and uncovering the secrets behind the dungeons and the System itself.

Key themes and subjects explored in Solo Leveling include:

• Hunters: Individuals with awakened powers who combat monsters.
• Dungeons: Portals to other dimensions filled with monsters.
• The%20System: The unique ability that allows Jinwoo to level up.
• Monsters: Creatures that emerge from dungeons, posing a threat to humanity.
• Leveling%20Up: The process by which Jinwoo grows stronger through the System.
• Rankings: Hunters are categorized by strength (E-Rank to S-Rank).
• Shadow%20Monarch: A powerful entity linked to Jinwoo's abilities.

The webtoon concluded its main story in December 2021 but continues to have a massive fanbase. An anime adaptation has been released.
