Solo Leveling’s highly awaited sequel, Solo Leveling: Ragnarok, is finally receiving a webtoon adaptation, with a release date now revealed for eager fans. Based on the web novel written by Daum, Solo Leveling: Ragnarok follows Jinwoo’s son and is the perfect read for those missing Solo Leveling.
The Legacy of Jinwoo Continues
Solo Leveling: Ragnarok's webtoon adaptation is set to be released on Wednesday, July 31, 2024, at 10 p.m. Korean Standard Time, according to an announcement by KakaoPage on X. The announcement was accompanied by a new key visual featuring Sung Suho, Jinwoo’s son and the protagonist of Solo Leveling: Ragnarok, who bears a striking resemblance to his father as he smiles while wielding two swords, surrounded by swirling shadows.
The journey of adapting Solo Leveling: Ragnarok from web novel to webtoon began in October 2023, when the CEO of D&C Media announced it during an interview. As highlighted in the Crunchyroll documentary on Solo Leveling, the process of converting a web novel into a webtoon can be lengthy, as a substantial number of chapters need to be prepared in advance. Thus, it took almost a year for the sequel to be ready for its webtoon debut.
Anticipation for the English Release
Licensed by D&C Media, Solo Leveling: Ragnarok's webtoon will premiere on KakaoPage and will likely become available on other Kakao-owned manga platforms like Piccoma. Currently, there is no information on when fans can expect the series to be licensed in English. Typically, it takes a few months for a series to be licensed after its Korean debut.
However, given the global popularity of Solo Leveling and the high anticipation surrounding the sequel, Solo Leveling: Ragnarok might break the norm and be licensed sooner than most manhwa. For now, the web novel Solo Leveling: Ragnarok is available in English on Tapas.
The Art and Visuals of Solo Leveling: Ragnarok
One of the key reasons Solo Leveling achieved its remarkable success was due to its exceptional art by Jang Sung-rak. Despite the artist’s passing, Solo Leveling maintained a high standard of quality, resulting in high expectations for the sequel’s visuals and art.
Fortunately, besides the stunning new key visual, KakaoPage’s website also provides a few snippets of the manhwa and what to expect from the plot, including excerpts from Solo Leveling’s epilogue. So far, Solo Leveling: Ragnarok’s art appears poised to meet these high expectations.
Though JIN is still relatively unknown as an artist, the previews suggest that the sequel may be able to replicate the beloved character designs and visuals from Solo Leveling.
What to Expect from Solo Leveling: Ragnarok
Fans can look forward to Solo Leveling: Ragnarok continuing the thrilling adventures and intense battles that made the original series a global phenomenon. With Sung Suho at the helm, readers will experience a new generation of monster-hunting and dungeon-conquering exploits.
The sequel promises to delve deeper into the world established by Jinwoo, exploring new realms, facing formidable foes, and uncovering secrets that tie back to the original series. The dynamic art style and compelling storyline are set to captivate both new readers and long-time fans of Solo Leveling.
Conclusion
Solo Leveling: Ragnarok is shaping up to be a worthy successor to the beloved Solo Leveling series. With its highly anticipated webtoon release just around the corner, fans are eager to see how Sung Suho will carry on his father's legacy. Mark your calendars for July 31, 2024, and get ready to embark on a new journey filled with action, adventure, and stunning visuals.
