Solo Leveling season 2 continues its dazzling winter run with this week's eighth episode. But with English dub delays and anime's usual stance on obscuring release times, it can be difficult to know just exactly when the new episodes will drop.
With that in mind, we've put together a cheat sheet on Solo Leveling season 2, episode 8's release date and streaming time on Crunchyroll in the US and UK. There's also a further look ahead to the complete release schedule, and Arise from the Shadow's confirmed episode count.

Solo Leveling season 2, episode 8 release date: what time is it on Crunchyroll?
Solo Leveling season 2, episode 8 is releasing on February 22 at 9:30 AM Pacific/12:30 PM Eastern on Crunchyroll. That's 5:30 PM GMT in the UK.
Confusingly, it's also titled 'Season 2, Episode 20' on Crunchyroll but, rest assured, that is the new episode you're looking for.

If you're curious about what to expect, the show's synopsis reads, "It's been over ten years since gates that lead to another dimension have begun appearing across the world. The battles between the magic beasts inhabiting the dungeons through the gates and the human hunters who have awakened the abilities to fight them show no signs of ending. Ordinarily, a hunter's abilities do not change upon awakening, with their rank never increasing. However, the low-ranked Sung Jinwoo, known as 'The Weakest Hunter of All Mankind,' gained the ability to level up through battle during a raid on a double dungeon.
Having completed a job-change quest that earned him the job 'Shadow Monarch' and command over an army of shadows, Jinwoo heads into battle seeking the ingredients for the Elixir of Life to save his sick mother."
