See AllSolo Leveling Is Anime Of The Year, But 1 Show Far Surpasses It In Quality
Solo leveling is a very basic power trope anime. Good story and characters but it’s extremely basic and not much different than really any shonen with a meager and loser of a mc that becomes godlike powerful over a short span of mediocre training eps. The broader story is great but the first two seasons just set the story up, solo leveling shouldn’t have won at all. It’s good but by no means great. Dandadan nearly tripled its view count alone. Frieren was a phenomenal story with depth and requires the viewer to actually give it some thought rather than just fight animation porn. The characters are deep and each hold meaning to the story and the world building is immense for a 28 ep first season. When the next couple arcs of solo leveling get animation adaptation they will be far better but as of 2025 solo leveling had no place to win this award over Frieren or Dandadan.
