The Deep Voice Behind Solo Leveling‘s New Anthem
Yes, it was him, Felix from Stray kids
Anime and K-pop fans, unite!
The opening theme of Solo Leveling Season 2 is making waves. And yes— that spine-chilling deep voice in the background? It belongs to none other than Felix from Stray Kids. Indeed, the man whose voice can shake the core of your soul has officially stepped into the anime realm, and we’re here for it!
Solo Leveling Season 2: A Global Phenomenon
For the uninitiated (seriously, where have you been?), Solo Leveling is the hit South Korean web novel-turned-anime that follows Sung Jinwoo’s transformation from the weakest hunter to an unstoppable force. The first season had anime fans hooked, and now, with Season 2, expectations are sky-high.
Titled Solo Leveling: Arise from the Shadow, the upcoming season dropped in January 2025.. However, before its release, the opening theme ReawakeR has already sparked a frenzy among fans.
ReawakeR: A Power-Packed Collaboration
K-pop meets anime in the best way possible! The track ReawakeR is a collaboration between Felix and the legendary LiSA, the queen of anime openings (you know her from Demon Slayer‘s iconic Gurenge). Produced by Hiroyuki Sawano—the genius behind some of anime’s most intense soundtracks—this song delivers an electrifying fusion of rock, electronic beats, and, of course, Felix’s iconic baritone.
It’s worth noting that the first opening for Solo Leveling was performed by TXT (TOMORROW X TOGETHER) in collaboration with Hiroyuki Sawano, setting a high bar for what was to come. However, ReawakeR has quickly carved out its own legacy.
Felix’s Voice: The Unexpected Showstopper
Let’s talk about that voice. If you thought the deep, rich vocals were edited in post-production, think again. Felix’s natural baritone has the power to make the ground tremble, and in ReawakeR, it adds an unparalleled intensity. The moment he drops in, it’s like Sung Jinwoo himself is commanding your full attention.
Felix himself expressed his excitement about working with LiSA and being part of such a legendary anime project. And let’s be real—who wouldn’t want to be part of Solo Leveling’s legacy?
The Fan Frenzy: Early Reactions to ReawakeR
Fans who attended early screenings of Solo Leveling: ReAwakening, a recap movie for Season 1 that also teases Season 2’s first two episodes, got the first taste of ReawakeR. Their verdict? Absolute banger. Social media exploded with reactions, with many dubbing Felix’s voice the ultimate “plot twist” of the anime opening.
And the numbers don’t lie—within just two weeks, the Solo Leveling Season 2 opening has racked up over 6 million views on YouTube, proving just how much of a hit this song has become.
A Soundtrack Worthy of Jinwoo’s Rise
Anime openings have the power to make or break a show’s hype, and ReawakeR doesn’t just meet expectations—it shatters them. LiSA’s powerhouse vocals, Sawano’s signature sound, and Felix’s deep resonance combine to create an anthem that screams power, determination, and pure adrenaline.
And let’s not lie—this opening is seriously addictive. It gets stuck in your head faster than Jinwoo clears a dungeon.
With Solo Leveling Season 2 and ReawakeR, one thing is clear: this anime is about to dominate the charts once again. Buckle up, anime and K-pop stans—Felix just made history in the anime world, and we’re all witnesses to his rise!
