| Smol Rak > Beeg Rak Hoh's funeral was kinda a strange scene... also, all those glass graves look like solar panels. |
~my list
| The fact that they’ve cut out sooo many of Rak’s iconic lines makes me beyond sad. Rak is my favorite character, so it’s just pretty disappointing for me. |

| Pretty slow episode, the soundtrack keeps getting better and better. Not much to say about this episode but I love the characters reactions to reveals in anime. I've noticed that they have changed many parts from what actually happened in the webtoon to the anime it's strange but I kinda like it |
| Decent episode but some of the anime original scenes and changes were questionable. The part with everyone getting drunk was fun, but it seems strange they would include a filler type of scene when they are already rushing through content and missing out on so much dialogue. Khun's meeting with Hwaryun had the location changed, the initial part about Khun lamenting about his plan almost makes it seem like he was the one who got Hoh to take Rachel's life when that isn't true at all. Some more specific bits about the plan seemed to have been cut out as well. Why did they not animate sleepy hair Yu? They used his regular appearance when he turned Rak tiny. :( I still think S1 should have been at least 2 cour to have a better pace and not cut out so much content. |
 |
| I was surprised that Lo Po Bia Ren had to consider to fight. So Test Admins do not have to be absolutely loyal to the monarchy? A calmer episode with a some meorable moments. Sadly, everything is so rushed and the show can and does not explore these moments any further. Imagine Attack on Titan S1 without the troops sharing meals, hanging out, etc.. |
 |
| ahhhh i cant wait for the finalle! I think this was one of the best episodes, it builds up the hype for the later! Also i am sad that only 3 episodes remain! |

TOMEK18 said: this episode was so bad. Pacing again was shit and them crying over that dude wasn't earned at all. This show becomes more of a joke as it goes on. started good but it's really bad now. 5/10 at best, this episode was like a 3. same for me. you're speaking my mind |
There is no cure for being a cunt.  |
| Oh man, when the ending song kicked in I was so engrossed I forgot how much time had passed! Tiny gator had me in stitches but the episode was still pretty deep and the plot twists forever getting wilder and wilder! |

| several things were changed or left out from the webtoon 1. the talk between hansung yu and Mr.ro when they talk about other irregulars like urek mazino and how he formed the group Wol ha ik song and that it is so strong even the 10 great families fear them. They also mention the other irregular Pentaminum, and how he invaded jahads castle and massacred all of the rankers inside. he then goes on to add that because of this the testing floor is meant to weed out dangerous people. Mr.ro expresses some unease from that concept and hansung yu threatens to fire him. 2. when khun talked to Mr. ro about how he made sure bam wouldn't get hurt in the test by hoh and how he set it up 3.and Finally, how khun managed to get everyone to help bam in the administrator test. unlike the anime no one actually knew and when he remarked that he wouldn't help bam he got punched by rak. rak then called all of them cowards because they were to afraid to make decisions and left. this in turn made everyone join rak because they didn't want to be grouped up with a coward like khun. When everyone leaves rak is the only who one comes back and tells khun that everyone is going to help bam and khun remarks, "You're getting better huh?" implying that rak is the only one who figured it out.(now I know they make these changes to make it flow or to be more time effective but I hated that they took this out because they make it seem like khun is stupid which is far from the truth) |
| This was quite a nice episode, though everytime I saw Rachel . The additional scene and everything about small Rak was great. In all honesty, I am kind of glad S1 is about to be over soon and really hope they animate more. So far I think they did pretty well with most of the source material. Of course, they probably did leave out some important details, that would help people be less confused, but on the other hand, there is also the limits of the medium. The balance on that could have been better. On the other hand, I find it quite sad yet hilarious how some people seem to hate this show yet keep watching it. Just don't. Why would you keep watching something you dislike just to then go and complain how generic, dumb and fail it is... Find something that suits your needs instead? Lol? I don't think ToG should be given a pass for its many faults, but you can certainly tell that SIU has been still learning about the medium and how best to portray things early on in both art and writing. The storybuilding is there from the start, but some things are not explained or given to us in the best way and hard to say if any of that should have been changed for the animation differently. it could have made the anime better but should they differ from the original so much just to make the anime better? Personally I prefer sticking closer to the source rather than taking liberties just to please the masses. And I already hate the fact they are cutting some scenes out to attempt to try to make the pacing better anyway. I'm really glad it was still given a chance to be adapted despite all of this and hope we will get to see the later better seasons adapted and get better paced explanations of things without less things left out. |

Neostorm-X said: dc22 said: Seing as you have no arguments to defend ToG, better to deflect to other anime heh? No I don't have adhd. I just don't like wasting my time on exposition heavy shows, unless they absolutely earn it. "Show, don't tell" is better. Style IS substance. Else might as well go read books. Also couldn't give two shits about "community consensus". Ironically your favorites fall much more into that category. ok first of all i have not updated my anime list in ages and if a series isn't listed as completed it means my scores aren't actually finalized and are just a place hold, just like how i gave fairy tale a originally 8/10 as a place holder but it wasn't completed on my list, i will soon change a lot of things, also my argument doesn't change your style = substance argument is fucking stupid, anime is a medium not a concept. its a medium to express ideas and stories, its no different than a book on a fundamental level. anime and video games does add sound and pictures to the bundle to add on the experience however the core goal of an anime is very much the same as a book to deliver you knowledge or story, you must only be saying this because you likely never read a book in your life or are largely illiterate. the plot > artstyle in almost all cases, other wise you could just read the original manga of whatever series. if you really wanted to look a amazing pictures of art just go to the god damn lourve in paris or something for fucks say anime is about telling a story not a picture show. (and also togs art isn't even bad like people are saying) tog isn't even near my top 50 and the only reason why I gave the anime a high rating for now was to counter to spam bots giving it 1s even though a show isn't finished, i only give proper ratings once a whole show is finished those who give a show a 1 with 1 episode seen shouldn't even be countered as a rating in mal its so exploitable. this is less about differing tog and more about showing the hypocrisy of a lot of these critics about tog, its really starting to piss me off, show don't tell is exactly what tog is doing, and MAJORITY of the people who hate on tog are the ones who are actually saying that there ISN"T even enough exposition so your opinion is even a minority with the critics of this anime. Ideas aren't expressed merely by words, anime is a visual medium first and foremost. Also plot isn't the goal of every series. It is in ToG but not in Eva, for example. Some shows are character driven, some aim to merely entertain, etc. That is reductionist view. And people read manga or novels to get the full picture sometimes. Those mediums are tipically more exposition heavy than anime. I'm not illiterate, but a book is a vastly different experience to watching a show or movie. Also there's not that many bots/trolls giving ToG a 1/10. It's still heavily overrated sitting at +8/10. |
| There are some changes. But overall this episode is good I can't wait for what will happen in episode 13 |
 |
| I was Really enjoying this anime. Actually I would say this was also a pretty solid episode but I'm very worried at this point. It seems like this anime is gonna be another series about an overpowered male protagonist protecting a weak female protagonist. I mean I always new Bam was gonna be strong but making Rachel super weak and having him protect her just seems so typical and I'm tired of it. I have not read the manga so hopefully I am wrong about this. One more thing I would like to add. I hope Anak stays powerful and relevant. Overtime I hope they do not make her weak and useless. That would be another typical thing anime tends to do with female characters and right now she is my favorite. |

| RIP Why does life have to be so hard, they are free now though, so many of them too, set to such a beautiful backdrop, ironic... they no longer need to climb the tower (..struggle through life) |

| Damn, Serena leaving the cast was sad but at least she becomes pretty mature over the course of this show. It's a change that I noticed and I am grateful that they give her a nice conclusion. Also, I like the pacing of this episode since I could breath scene after scene unlike others episodes. |

| Oh they literally held a nice funeral for the guy that they have known for about a few days and who made Rachel disabled. Bam is literally an empty bottle walking around. No, he reminds me of a dog for some reason. But even a dog would hate someone who hurts their owner. Bam is the dumbest, dullest character ever. The characters interactions are forced and cheesy af. They also tried to create tension and failed miserably. This show is getting worse and worse. |

dandon223 said: nakatsushistan said: So Khun was the one who manipulated Ho. However, in a scene it looked like he changed the first note Ho received with a new one, so was it him all along? Were there two notes or am I mistaken? Khun was told by Hwa Ryun to be wary of Hoh. He then went to Hoh room, found the letter and copied it using his bag. Then he told Quant to watch Hoh, because he believed he will try something. In the Webtoon Khun says something different to Quant. But at the anime goes yes that is correct. |
| Ugh. This anime is, overall, mediocre imo. It's started off well. Middle was a little slow. Past couple episodes picking back up. This seems like an anime where you're better off reading the manga. Action isn't too special. |
hd_nexus said: You got it wrong. Khun didn't set Ho up, he even told Lero-ro that one of the test directors set this up (because they were the only ones who knew Ho was going to be on Rachel's team). What he did was to copy the note that Ho received (because he suspected after Hwaryun told him to be careful with Ho). I'm glad you're enjoying and please keep up the hype, these final episodes will be great if they do it right, and the second season will be 100x better than the first season. :)) I realized that after ending the episode haha i was like "there is no way that Khun would set all that", and after some research, i got that i got it wrong xD But thanks for explaining! MAL's community is truly awesome. It's impossible to not get excited if you say that the 2s is much better and the 1s is already what it is...oh boy i am really hoping for a 2S! |

| Wow, episode was wierd to me. I understand including some extra stuff to the anime but i don't understand why they added fillers while canon's stuff is rushed and pacing of important things is like watching in 2.0 speed. It could be just me but in this episode last scene and every Yu Han Sung scenes are made worst than fillers. |

Also there's not that many bots/trolls giving ToG a 1/10. It's still heavily overrated sitting at +8/10. there was literally 3 incidents of boting recently with the most recent season of the card anime(can't remember i think it was chiyafu or something) getting down-voted boted then there was interspecies viewers incident where so many people boted it upto top 1 in mal, when i first saw tog finally registered (this was the manhwa not the anime), i saw that it almost instantly got a negative rating when i looked at the proportions it was very slanted a bunch of 1 votes clearly a sense of boting so i gave it a super high rating to balance it out however now the score is more balanced, and i've changed my vote a little, now the vote was 8 (and it rightfully deserves it as long as hxh gets a 8+ tog should as well) I understand that being overrated is subjective however. Its quite fuckign ironic that you call stuff like tog overrated considering you HAVE NOT EVEN READ IT, people who call something bad without reading or watching it are actually retarded or just trolling, their opinion is a grain of salt. unlike you i've actually finished practically all the shows i've criticized you on fully, (still need to update my list) so I can at least voice my opinion on the fact that it is overrated. Again, you don't need to read the source material to critique a show's quality. Nor do you even need to watch all of it. The matter of fact is that it is overrated judging merely by what was presented thus far. Fairly, the score is on a downwards slope, reflecting the progressively disenchanted audience. |

Zombiedub said: Ashhk said: I really wonder if they can finish the anime in only 3 episode, the story is more and more interesting I just hope for a second season, I don't know about the length of the webtoon though. Around 480 chapters. 1st season will cover up to around 80 Wow, that's actually a crapload of chapters covered in one season. Impressive. Is it because the anime is rushing through the material, or are the chapters very short? |
| @Zombiedub Thanks for the info. I'll have to check it out one day. |
| Child Rak is so cute hahahaha. There’s something really strange, Yu Han’s attitude upon Lero Ro is very aggressive and hostile, like he’s controlling many things and is moved by interests. Ren apparition kind of surprised me, but being Anak a fake princess, is understandable that she must not exists. Finally, Khun knowing about the test surprised Yu Han, knowing too much could be seem like an attack, and I mean, this guy sometimes acts really hostile and right now, maybe he could murder anyone is his way. Don’t know that “see the stars” mean to Rachel, so, after everything, going back and live a normal life wouldn’t sound like a bad idea if I were Bam. |

| Damn so much things happened in this episode, it's crazy. So Rachel got injured so bad that she won't be able to run? Tbh I didn't expect that at all. How she will be able to climb the rest of the tower was also a thing I thought about immediately. Little Rak is so adoreable *.* Han Sung definitely did him dirty there lol. I'm glad Bam still wants to go up in the tower. As Khun at first I also had concerns for that matter. The gesture that everyone came to Hoh's funeral was amazing. The OST also fit perfect for that moment. Finally we got the real reason why Rachel tried to leave Bam. She just thought Bam was to weak so that she wouldn't be able to climb the tower. You could see how bad she felt for that. But even with all of that Bam still sticked to her. Even with her being handicapped he still wants to help her to reach the top. I hope Rachel finally realize how much luck she has with Bam. I absolutely love the scene where everyone drank together. Such a nice scene. :) So Serena also says goodbye. She and Shibisu definitely had a more than normal relationship. I hope someday they will meet again and who knows what could happen. Damn so Lo Po Bia Ren is a member of the Royal Enforcement Division? He's only there to get the Blacm March and April Green. The little fight against Han Sung just was nice. It also showed how strong Han Sung really is. The whole story definitely spiced up. So everyone passed, only Rachel isn't allowed to enter the next exam because of her current health situation. I totally forgot that nobody knew about Bam being an irregular. The reaction was priceless. I'm just glad that even with the fact him being an irregular everyone still will help him. The question is, what kind of test Bam has to survive? I can't believe there are only 3 episodes left. |
 |
| Chibi Rak was pretty funny, must suck to be too powerful that you would need to be nerfed like that. Character interactions were good and also nice to see everyone willing to help Bam, can't wait to see his administrator test. |
 |
| Some staticness present but I'm still enjoying it and I liked a few of the anime-only scenes they added, like the whole funeral aspect since it does help showcase the bond of friendship and the respect of loss of someone they called a comrade, even if he was blinded by the greed to succeed with his weakness hounding over him already. Serena leaves the inner tower too since she can't handle that sort of action, pain and loss anymore so we even get to witness people leaving peacefully after coming so far, so she is heading back to the outer tower/residential district to live a new, normal life. Bam also reveals that he's an Irregular after Lero-ro and Hansung Yu had to fail Rachel due to her injury, and that Bam has to take an administrator's test to be able to progress the tower with her, and in a quicker route too since this test does involve the others too. Khun Aguero initially declined and wanted to stay away from Irregulars along with a couple other people, but eventually everyone was convinced and united on the front to help Bam and go through with this administrator's test (the benefit of a shorter route does help too). Solid episode with some of the anime-only scenes helping, but there were also some other interactions that the anime cut from the webtoon which I wish they kept, especially surrounding Bam and Androssi and her helping him train to get better. |
