Kami no Tou

There is a tower that summons chosen people called "Regulars" with the promise of granting their deepest desires. Whether it be wealth, fame, authority, or something that surpasses them all—everything awaits those who reach the top.

Twenty-Fifth Bam is a boy who had only known a dark cave, a dirty cloth, and an unreachable light his entire life. So when a girl named Rachel came to him through the light, his entire world changed. Becoming close friends with Rachel, he learned various things about the outside world from her. But when Rachel says she must leave him to climb the Tower, his world shatters around him. Vowing to follow after her no matter what it takes, he sets his sight on the tower, and a miracle occurs.

Thus begins the journey of Bam, a young boy who was not chosen by the Tower but opened its gates by himself. They call his kind "Irregulars"—beings that have shaken the very foundation of the Tower each time they set foot inside it.

To me it's really a masterpiece in terms of what you can achieve in the span of 13 episodes.
This mysterious Tower set the setting in an mysterious in a beautiful way that I've never seen before way and it could seem as though the Tower is an infinite amount of floors (I didn't read the manhwa).
The tests are complex, unique, different from each other and unlike any test I've ever seen before in anime, this is not your regular shonen action. The tests are also a way to deepen the plot, and the plot is not only amazing. It also managed to get you pretty ... far deep into the story in 13 episodes in a way that doesn't feel rushed which is really impressive.
You get to see the reason as to why everyone got into the tower and you understand the brutality of this world.
The characters are entertaining and even though the MC is a wimp but people forget he has a reason to be. He is LOST, he barely has memories, he was alone in his entire life (it's the first thing you see so it's not a spoiler) so you understand why he's a bit timid, I liked Ban. But if you have to have the cool badass MC then this is not the show for you.
And the icing on the cake is the animation and the soundtrack. the animation is SO good and unique the characters has outline similar to Demon Slayer style of drawing. And the soundtrack emphasizes the mysterious vibe of the show with sounds that sends a shiver down my spine. An OST from the show - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7rqEB4xNZU4

Mixed Feelings

Abomination of a main character. Simply put, he’s a bitch through and through. His entire focus is on saving the girl that abandoned him and has no motivation to climb the tower other than for her. There are times where an intelligent character would just give up and save themselves, but no, he is determined to help this girl that he should have no reason to help.

Every character other than the main two are great though, enough to almost make up for the atrocity of Bam. I enjoy the setting of the tower and the way that the “tests” are administered. A big selling ... point is character designs. The character designs are similar enough to be from the same setting but different enough to have an interesting backstory. Overall the show is good with the exception of the main character and love interest. If possible, score would be 6.5 but 7 is also fitting.

Started out fairly promising but never really got any better, only continuously more confusing. I haven't read the Manwha but i get the feeling so much of the world of this manwha was left out in the anime. The whole anime is almost lacking of any substance or context. Things just happen and appear without any explanation. Motives for characters are not revealed at all for all 13 episodes except for the Green Lizard girl who is really the only one with any background and even hers is kind of vague. Idk it just feels like an anime that was rushed and probably missing a ... lot of major character development that may be in the source material. The idea is great the execution is poor.....it feels like an anime that is trying to appear to be deeper and more intellectual than it actually is. In a word if i had to describe this entire anime it would be "RANDOM". 5/10 wouldn't recommend unless you enjoy an aimless story with even more aimless characters.
