This article contains spoilers from Demon Slayer and Solo Leveling.

Demon Slayer: Infinity Castle was officially adapted into a movie this year, and the first part was an absolute sensation that left the fans speechless. The movie went on to reach heights never seen before and it goes without saying that, overall, it was the best anime release of 2025. With Demon Slayer: Infinity Castle breaking all sorts of records in 2025 thanks to its movie, many other big anime IPs will be looking to hit a similar level of heights with their own movies. It shouldn't come as a surprise to any fan to see other franchises try to copy Demon Slayer with canon movie releases that deliver a high-quality experience.

Solo Leveling was the most-watched anime on Crunchyroll at one point, and it is officially the most reviewed anime in the history of Crunchyroll. No matter what fans think of it, they absolutely cannot deny the fact that fans love Solo Leveling. Be it for just the action or big fights, Solo Leveling has a grip on fans like no other series and this group would only tighten if the series were to get the same treatment as Demon Slayer.

If there's one anime series the popularity of which can rival Demon Slayer among the new generation of anime fans, it's Solo Leveling. Granted, the plot of Solo Leveling isn't all that amazing and the story may be very basic, but it's the action that the fans love and that will keep them coming for more.

Solo Leveling getting a movie isn't just something that the fans wish for. Recently, the voice actor for Sung Jinwoo, Taito Ban, also commented on it, and he clearly wants a Solo Leveling movie. Here's what he had to say:

"I would really, really like it if the momentum continued & it didn't just stop because there's so much more of the story left to tell. So season 3, season 4, season 5 & maybe even a movie in the works." — Taito Ban

At this point, Solo Leveling getting an anime movie seems very likely, and if it does, it would then compete with Demon Slayer: Infinity Castle Part 2 and 3 for the title of the best anime movie.
