The anime industry is a tough space to compete in, especially in the current market. With tons of anime being released every season, it’s hard for anime studios to stand out. However, Studio A-1 Pictures has already made a name for itself, all because of the most popular Winter 2025 anime, Solo Leveling.
In the current industry, MAPPA, Ghibli, KyoAni, Ufotable, Pierrot, and a few others have already risen to the top in terms of popularity. But no one could have expected the kind of impetus Solo Leveling could have provided A-1 Pictures. But in just a few days, the studio is about to break the Internet with the finale of the Jeju Island Raid Arc.
Solo Leveling Season 2 Episode 12 will be the make-or-break point for the anime and the studio
Solo Leveling Season 2 has beaten every expectation that fans had from the series. From awesome animation to mind-bending fights, the anime lacks nothing. In fact, the anime is so hyped that Crunchyroll, its official streaming platform, breaks every Saturday at the time of Solo Leveling’s new episode release.
And this Saturday, the mother of all episodes will be dropped. Solo Leveling Season 2 will receive its final episode which will consist of the most anticipated battle in the anime. Jinwoo will finally face off against the black ant king. This new ant has caused devastation even amongst S Rank hunters, the strongest that humankind has to offer.
Jinwoo will finally reach Jeju to have the battle of the century. While it will be a test of Jinwoo’s skills and abilities, it will also be a test of Studio A-1’s capabilities. It will be the make-or-break point of the entire series and, by extension, the studio. If the studio fumbles even a bit in the animation and direction, fans will not be ready to forgive and forget.
Solo Leveling Season 2 finale will boost Studio A-1 Pictures to the top
Judging from its performance so far, A-1 Pictures will definitely deliver its best performance this Saturday. Jinwoo’s battle against the ant king will be legendary. Consequently, he will gain his strongest shadow soldier, Beru. Needless to say, webtoon fans have been waiting for this moment for a long time.
The studio might provide the fight with its own new song, and so many other things could be done to make the battle something to remember for ages. All eyes will be set on the release of the upcoming episode, so there is no better time than now to go down with a bang.
Solo Leveling already has several overhyped episodes, but Episode 12 needs to stand out more than anything else. After all, it is the finale of the story. The studio might even decide to leave the ending in a cliffhanger so that fans have something to look forward to. But let’s hope that the battle against Beru is completely adapted in the final episode of the season.
Solo Leveling anime is available to stream on Crunchyroll.
