With the ongoing Solo Leveling anime series one of the most popular of the current season, is anyone surprised the interest in the anime has moved over to the manhwa (Korean term for manga) it is based on?
Or that the Solo Leveling manhwa seems to be selling like ice cream on the beach on a hot summer day over on Yen Press?
