This article contains major spoilers for the Solo Leveling series.
Solo Leveling gained a ton of popularity immediately after the release of its first anime season, but it was the second season of the show that would go on to propel it to unprecedented heights, making it one of the biggest modern anime. The second part of Solo Leveling season 2 brought the Jeju Island arc to life, and it goes without saying that fans were blown away by the level of quality it delivered.
Solo Leveling Officially Reveals A Major Season 3 Detail In The Latest Trailer
Solo Leveling's newest trailer reveals a major detail about season 3 that has left fans shocked.
Jinwoo’s battle against the Ant King, and the dire situation of the S-Rank Hunters set some very high standards for the future of the series. With that being said, Solo Leveling has an even better arc in store for the fans that's on the way, and that's the Monarchs War Arc. This arc will see Jinwoo finally take on the Monarchs, and it will also end up being quite a tragic arc. Two major characters are about to die, and the stakes are going to be higher than even Jeju Island. The Monarchs War Arc will be covered in Solo Leveling Season 3, whenever it drops.
Solo Leveling’s Monarchs War Arc Will Be Even Better Than Jeju Island
- Solo Leveling Season 3 Will Surpass Jeju Island Arc
- Bigger Battles For Jinwoo Are Coming
Solo Leveling Season 2 was long-awaited, and much of that was down to the fact that one of the very best arcs, the Monarch War Arc, was being animated.
There’s a reason why the Jeju arc is as popular as it is. Jinwoo's rise to fame happens in this arc, and it features the rise and fall of some beloved characters. Above all, the battle between Jinwoo and The Ant King is on a whole other level. The emotional stakes are also high. Many characters perished in the Jeju Island arc, and without Jinwoo, the Korean S-Rank Hunters would’ve been decimated.
However, it can be said that the Jeju Island arc is going to look small once the Monarch War arc is finally animated. The Monarch War Arc takes place on the last day of the International Guild Conference. The Monarchs finally come into light, and they are ruthless. Some of the world’s strongest will end up dying in this segment of the story, and Jinwoo has to show his worth against them.
The Monarchs' War Arc Will Feature Incredible Battles And Tragic Deaths
The Monarchs' War Arc is one of the greatest Solo Leveling arcs, even better than Jeju Island. If Jeju Island fights were exciting, the battles in this arc will absolutely blow fans away. Sung Jinwoo will take on not one, but three Monarchs at once. The stakes will never have been higher for Jinwoo, and for the very first time, fans might even get to see him struggle greatly.
Solo Leveling Ragnarok Author Officially Gives Sung Jinwoo A New Ending, And Fans Love It
Sung Jinwoo is a beloved Solo Leveling character, and he finally got a new, better ending.
The Monarchs War Arc is also about to showcase the biggest tragedies of Solo Leveling. While Jeju Island mostly featured the deaths of characters fans cared little about, the Monarchs War Arc will be the complete opposite. Go GunHee, one of Solo Leveling’s most beloved characters, is about to be killed as Jinwoo will fail to save him.
Along with him, Sung II Hwan, Jinwoo’s own father, will also crumble away in his son’s arms. Given the events that are to follow, this arc will bring fans to tears.
Jinwoo Will Emerge Stronger Than Ever
Jinwoo’s battles in the Monarchs War Arc aren’t going to get easier. The Monarchs are far stronger than any threat Jinwoo has previously faced. In fact, Jinwoo even faces certain death in his battles.
But, thanks to his father, and because of Ashborn’s powers, he rises stronger than ever before. This is another reason why fans are about to fall in love with this arc. A new Jinwoo is about to be born, and he'll be stronger and more ruthless than ever before.
When Will The Monarchs War Arc Be Animated?
It goes without saying that Manhwa fans are excited to see the Monarchs War Arc animated. However, it won’t happen anytime soon. The Monarchs War Arc should fall in Solo Leveling Season 3, or perhaps Solo Leveling Season 4, depending on the number of episodes that the upcoming movie covers.
Either way, fans won’t see the Monarchs War Arc until 2027 at the very earliest. The wait could be even longer if the anime gets delayed. Fans will have to keep an eye out for updates concerning the anime.
Solo Leveling has 25 episodes available to watch right now, split over two major seasons, the most recent of which wrapped up in 2025. The series can be streamed on Crunchyroll. There have been no major announcements about a third season so far. Fans can get more Solo Leveling content via the Manhwa.
