Internationally renowned music sensation J Balvin is stepping into the realm of anime voice acting for the first time, joining the ensemble cast of “Solo Leveling Season 2 — Arise From the Shadow,” a production by Crunchyroll and Aniplex. Although specifics about his character are being kept confidential, this Grammy-nominated Colombian artist will contribute both English and Spanish voice performances to the highly-acclaimed series, which started streaming on January 4.
Based on the popular Korean web novel by Chugong, the series tells the tale of Sung Jinwoo, who was once the world’s weakest hunter but gains powerful necromancer abilities after a close brush with death. In the ongoing season, Jinwoo struggles to control his newfound powers while keeping them secret from other hunters, all while desperately trying to save his mother. The narrative unfolds as Jinwoo tests both his physical and mental strength against humanity’s most formidable adversaries, aided by an army of faithful shadows he commands.

He’s eager for everyone to witness the results of our hard work.
