Continuing in its adaptation of writer Chugong and late illustrator Jang Sang-rak’s manhwa, -Arise from the Shadow- picks up where the first season left off and will tackle both the Red Gate Arc as well as the Demon Castle Arc.

In the first plotline, after obtaining the title of Shadow Monarch granting him the ability to convert his victims shadows into members of his growing army, Sung Jinwoo finds himself giving his sister friend’s a reality check on the dangers of being a Hunter by joining one of the White Tiger Guild’s highly-demanding training exercises.

However, these plans all change when the duo walks through the wrong gate entrance and end up trapped in the eponymous Red Gate.

Meanwhile, the Demon Castle Arc will see Jinwoo tackling the titular S-rank instant dungeon, its 100 floors playing host to not only four demon bosses, but also the Holy Water of Life, itself the key to curing his mother’s terminal illness
