Solo Leveling started 2024 with a celebratory mood for the fans. After waiting a long time, the fans saw Sung Jinwoo on the screen. With that, the anime also paved the path for the manhwa industry to rule the anime industry. There are several manhwa that are pretty good but are not getting proper exposure to the limelight.
One of the manhwa that is following Solo Leveling‘s path is Viral Hit. Viral Hit is a popular manhwa and is scheduled to release its anime adaptation on April 10, 2024. Even though there are no extra-terrestrial beings in Viral Hit, it could pose a massive threat to Solo Leveling. After the trailer release, fans are calling it the spiritual successor of Solo Leveling.
Viral Hit Is Set To Become The Next Big Thing
Viral Hit is a manhwa created by Park Tae Jun, and the anime is scheduled to release on April 10, 2024. It has only been a few days since the trailer was released, and it managed to grab hold of everyone’s attention. The story revolves around a skinny high-schooler named Hobin Yoo. He is often bullied by his classmates, who are stronger than him. But to everyone’s surprise, he became an online sensation after one of his videos was leaked on NewTube.
He was getting bullied and beaten, and it went viral. It got him money, and from there, his journey began. Fans have a lot of expectations from Viral Hit, especially after knowing Park Tae Jun is also the creator of Lookism. The manhwa has several fight sequences, with most of them keeping the audience on the edge of their seats. The trailer provided a glimpse of the brutality of the anime.
Even though Solo Leveling became a massive hit, fans were dearly missing the action sequences that were lacking in the anime. But with Viral Hit premiering soon, it could change the entire story for the manhwa business. It could pretty well fill the gap that Solo Leveling left. Moreover, Hobin Yoo’s glow-up would make the fans go wild.
Viral Hit Could Do More Than Filling Solo Leveling’s Shoes
Solo Leveling has paved the path for upcoming popular manhwa to rule the anime industry. But Viral Hit might accomplish something more than Chugong’s magnum opus. Solo Leveling only has one more episode before it takes a three-month gap. With a void left behind, the fans would desperately try to look for some proper entertainment. They might find it in Viral Hit.
Apart from the Solo Leveling fans, Viral Hit might garner more fans and break the popularity ratio between Sung Jinwoo and Hobin Yoo. The episode list is yet to be announced by Masakazu Hishida, the director of Viral Hit. Tomodachi Game’s animation studio, Studio Okuruto Noburo, is in charge of the animation.
Overall, Viral Hit looks to be ready to break the internet. Park Tae Jun’s Lookism premiered in 2022 and became a massive hit. So, the expectations remain sky-high with his upcoming project. His magnum opus could become the stepping stone for the manhwa industry. All the answers will be revealed within a couple of weeks.
Hobin Yoo might become an internet sensation in the anime, but whether he does the same thing in reality is the big question. Solo Leveling has cracked the code, and it is time for Viral Hit to do the same. Everything will be decided on April 10, 2024.
