Although Solo Leveling isn’t a traditional isekai anime, it shares some similarities with the genre—like a protagonist who feels like a self-insert, lots of monsters and heroes, and a story that could go in many directions. This makes it reasonable to compare Solo Leveling to Tensura as two of the most popular fantasy anime of the last ten years. However, Tensura is currently more successful. It’s leading the charts for isekai anime, and it’s strong enough to challenge Solo Leveling’s popularity, preventing it from becoming complacent.
