Kami no Tou: Ouji no Kikan

On the 20th floor of the Tower, the "Regulars" who have been permitted to enter have to undertake arduous and extremely expensive tests to rank up. Most abandon hope and choose to stay where they are—but not Ja Wangnan.

Wangnan is determined to reach the top and become the king of the Tower. However, he is weak and has repeatedly failed the exam, with debt collectors tailing him. In desperation, he attempts the exam one more time, only to encounter a mysterious and powerful individual: Jyu Viole Grace, a member of the crime syndicate FUG.

Cursing his rotten luck, Wangnan has no choice but to form alliances with strong people, including Viole—who still refuses to be part of any team. Amid a dire situation, Wangnan must find a way to change Viole's mind to finally advance past the 20th floor, or he will never get a chance to build his legacy.

Preliminary (4/? eps)

Animation 7, Story 9, Chars 9, Char design 7 (matches the manhwa more, so Rachel finally looks on the outside as on the inside, S1 Rachel was too cute for what she is)

FFS EDIT: One think I notice is ppl seem to not realize that this lvl of animation would be probably the top we would get if this show should continue to air. S1 was the classic sauce ad, while S2 is what 1000ep sauce "shounen" adaptation could look like at best IMO.
Not everything is JK or KnY to be carried by stellar animation. Yall too spoiled brats! xDD

Yes its less unique than ... S1, but if it means we get to get S3 and more, I am more than happy with it so give it a try for yourself, make your own opinion. The story will pick up...not like S1 was crazy filled with action, not to mention story depth which we didnt even scratch the surface.

For adaptation of sauce with 600+ chapters, following multiple "main" characters sometimes for multiple chapters, diving deep in backstories of side characters that will die in a moment, so much it made me take a break 2 or 3 times already (looking at you War of talks and Cat games) this is still good show and also much better than 80% of current season.
For this show to shine it would need continuous releases like major shounen titles like Narutardo and Wan piss. But I am afraid we wont get it when I am reading reviews of ppl here...

Mixed Feelings

Preliminary (3/? eps)

*Tower of God*, Season 2 is a good continuation of the series, but it has its ups and downs. I really liked the unique style of Season 1, especially its art and character design, even though some of my friends thought it looked old-fashioned and didn't like it as much.

For Season 2, the action sequences are above average, which is a strong point. However, it feels like the background music isn't as impressive as in the first season. The characters designs and art seem a bit generic this time, and the animation quality doesn't stand out compared to other recent anime. It seems like the ... studio might have had tight budget or time to work on this season.

On the positive side, the voice acting is very good, and the intro song is quite enjoyable. The anime stays true to the source material, which is something I appreciate. Overall, it’s a solid season, not top-notch but not dull either. If you enjoyed Season 1, you’ll likely enjoy this one too. It's worth watching, especially if you're a fan of the series.

That’s just my opinion, and others might have different views. It’s a good season, and I’ll update my thoughts as I watch more episodes.

After watching 4 episodes. I take my words back for fight sequence being a plus point, after episode 1 it's a let down in fight sequence like almost every shots are face closeups.

I Also think a bad writing i can see after 2nd episode, side characters are not that felt that connected.

But anyways I am still going to complete it, but I hardly see any chances of this anime getting another season.

Such a bad adaptation and a greatly let down from season 1.

I will update after watching more episodes i might once again improve my scores, but for now it comes under mixed feelings with 7 points.

Preliminary (3/? eps)

Terrible drop in quality from first season! From the moment I started watching the second season I could tell something was really off, the animation has become extremy basic and lacks the character it had on the previous season. I was reading some reviews and saw some people praising the animation, but if you watch one of the episodes from the second season and one from the first right after you will be able to tell how bad it is. The story is incorporatinng new characters but all of them look and act so generic that is hard to get back into this show. Everything, ... from animation and voice acting to even soundtrack has had a tremendous drop in quality that has ruined the show for me. I can understand that not everyone was a fan of the unique animation of the first season, but it certainly gave the show a degree of uniqueness that has been taken away. The first season's animation was well polished and cohisive, making smooth trasintions that allowed for easy to watch scenes. Whereas as this season's animation looks cheap, clunky and the most basic it can. Kinda reminds me of every other average anime that comes out every season that ends up not fulfilling its full potential, and it is a shame because this show doesn't lack potential. The direction and character development has also been horrendous so far, with each and every character spewing the most standard dialogues lacking any feeling or depth. It's almost like you are listening small talk for more than half the episode, and if not, it's cliches that are not even funny and are not even pulled off properly. Now, some people say they must be saving the budget for the fight scenes, but if this is the case, the studio must be about to go under because all fighting scenes have been subpar at most and not that enjoyable.

Overall, this show has become another one of those average shows that has wasted the potential its plot had, another boring, basic anime getting pumped out for the studio's financial benefit that lacks love and dedication. Really sad to see.
