Solo Leveling Producer Teases 'Truly Exciting' 2026 Update, Urges Fans to Wait

After nearly a year without confirmation of the anime’s next installment, attention turns to whether the coming reveal points to a new season or a film.

Overview

  • Producer Atsushi Kaneko posted on X on January 1, 2026, saying something "truly exciting" might happen this year and asking fans to "please, please wait just a little longer."
  • Kaneko’s New Year message referenced a rubber band engraved "Art is not a crime," which he said will be his 2026 slogan.
  • There is still no official announcement of a third season, despite sustained interest following Season 2’s 2025 run.
  • Coverage notes speculation that the next reveal could confirm either Season 3 or a feature film, with the 2024 ReAwakening compilation film cited as a precedent rather than a plan.
  • In parallel, Netflix’s live-action adaptation continues in South Korea with Byeon Woo-seok, Han So-hee, and Kang You-seok attached to lead roles.
