Crunchyroll Executive Talks About Solo Leveling

In an interview with Deadline, Mitchel Berger left no doubt that Crunchyroll is invested in keeping Solo Leveling alive as a franchise. After briefly discussing how anime boomed during the pandemic, he added that Solo Leveling has been able to attract both "old-school" and new fans. When referring to the continuation of the series, he commented:

We just concluded Season 2, which did really well for us, so I’m sure there will be more content in future. We’re not sure exactly when, but it will be here and fans will continue to see the story.

Berger's statement is in line with what Crunchyroll President Rahul Purini said a few weeks ago — Purini expressed hope that the series would continue but said they were looking for "the right time."

The creators want to work on lot of shows. Anime is really popular, so there’s a lot of demand, and so we have to find the right time to get started on the next season.

These statements are vague, but they make it clear that they have plans, and they are probably talking with the producers to continue the series, either on TV or in theaters. Considering how Aniplex has been handling Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba, the idea of turning the final arcs of Solo Leveling into movies is not far-fetched. Those involved in the production are probably considering the advantages and downsides of making one or more Solo Leveling movies. They may also be waiting to see how the first movie in the Demon Slayer: Infinity Castle trilogy performs before deciding if Solo Leveling should risk taking a similar route.

When Will Solo Leveling Seaosn 3 Be Released?

So far, Solo Leveling Season 3 hasn't been officially announced. The producer of the anime series has implied that he would like the next season to be released in 2028. This has led fans to speculate that a Solo Leveling movie could be in the works, possibly to be out between Season 2 and Season 3. At this point, what seems clear is that the series will eventually continue, as the producer, director, and Crunchyroll executives have all expressed interest in delivering more Solo Leveling content.

For now, fans can only wait for further developments. Even if it takes a while for Season 3 or another sequel format to be announced, there is no doubt that the next installment of the anime series will be, at the very least, as great as the previous ones.
