You know, when I first started reading mangas as a teen it took me a while to get into them because I had to read them from right to left, which is the opposite way I read everything else. Initially, I was frustrated because while I loved the art I didn’t like having to use context clues to figure out what I was reading. However, after some practice, I grew an appreciation for them and eventually found myself reading other international comic styles like South Korean manhwas. Once you start exploring these comics, you might come across Solo Leveling, better known as I Level Up Alone in English. And chances are you’ll want to find even more manhwas and manga like Solo Leveling.
Alternative Name: 나 혼자만 레벨업 Author: Jang Sung-Lak Category: adventure,action,shounen Date Added: Nov 05, 2018 Reading Direction: Right to left Status: Ongoing 10 years ago, after “the Gate” that connected the real world with the monster world opened, some of the ordinary, everyday people received the power to hunt monsters within the Gate. They are known as 'Hunters'. Tomb Raider king is one of the best manga like solo leveling. The artist of Solo Leveling and TRK is the same so visually, all the artwork of both the manhwas is the same. Both of them have a common game system/theme going on which is kind of unique. Both the protagonists die and then come back in time to raid dungeons.
Once you find a series you love you might not even care that you’ve spent weeks or maybe even months reading the first volume. Yes, reading manga and manhwas requires serious dedication as some series can have close to 200 volumes!
Now, if you have never read Solo Leveling, you are probably wondering what it’s all about. It’s an epic fantasy where everyday people turn into extraordinary heroes to fight and hunt monsters. If you have ever played the video game Diablo, it’s somewhat similar to that storyline. However, the characters in Solo Leveling are thrown into heroic roles without having any real skills.
If you love a good fantasy story where the impossible seems inevitable and the elements of human determination, sacrifice, and willpower are the ultimate powers, check out these manhwa and manga like Solo Leveling.
Note: An interesting thing about manhwa writers is that they often don’t use their real name or identity, so it’s difficult to determine who the author is. I read that South Korean writers do this because the public can be harsh about their work.
