Solo leveling has earned its crown as one of the best manhwa in the world today, captivating its readers with its immaculate storyline and unique characters. The story revolves around Sung Jin-woo, an F-rank hunter who acquires an infinite leveling system. Helping him rise to the top of the Hunter Society and the world.
Solo leveling became a pioneer for many manhwa out there, leading many fans and critics to delve deeper into the manhwa community. The series’ success has led to a lot of buzz among the manhwa and anime community.
However, since the manhwa ended in 2023, fans have begun to wonder if there is any other suitable substitute for their favorite necromancer. In this list, we will review manhwa with similar narratives to solo leveling.
Kill the Hero
Kill the Hero takes more than one troupe from the solo leveling story, with the biggest similarity coming from the fact that both MCs are necromancers. The story revolves around Kim Jin Cheol, who has regressed to the past with knowledge of the Heroes’ plan to enslave humanity.
With a clear plan in mind, he trains himself with the singular purpose of stopping the Heroes. Armed with the powers of necromancy, he will stop at nothing to save the world and exact revenge on the heroes.
The Beginning After the End
From one Monarch to another, next on the list is a fan favorite, The Beginning after the End. The story follows King Grey, who is reincarnated into a fantasy world full of magic. He retains his knowledge, sword skills, and mannerisms. While striving to stand on top of the world with his newfound abilities.
Tower of God
For fans of dungeons and epic monsters, Tower of God is the right manhwa for you. Unlike the vastness of the solo leveling universe, the story takes place inside a tower filled with mystery and danger where only the bravest people can survive.
It follows the story of Bam, who entered the tower to reunite with his friend. After encountering many hardships and betrayals, his abilities and hidden potential began to blossom.
Omniscient Readers Viewpoint
The story follows Kim Dokja, a typical salary worker who spends most of his free time engrossed in his novel “Three Ways to Survive the Apocalypse.” But, when the novel’s last chapter is released, the world changes into that of the book. Kim Dokja must use his knowledge and wits to survive while saving as many people as possible.
Nano Machine
Nanomachine will appeal to those fans who want to see the main character grow from being the weakest to the strongest, with the help of the system and their determination. The only significant difference between the two manhwas is the setting, as Nano Machine takes place in the Murim.
Cheon Yeo Woon obtained the Nano Machine, a unique power-up system, from his future descendant. This helped Cheon Yeo Woon learn martial arts and change his destiny after rigorous training. Cheon went from being the bastard son to the top of the cult.
