| While gladly nothing of importance is cut, the pacing does start to feel packed. Part of the game is processing information and anticipating what others are going to do. They could have added pauses here and there to let the viewers think about the rules for a bit and push the Love fight to a dedicated episode, but I guess they really need to get to next arcs as fast as possible. |

@TheColonel76 im guessing no one here has ever heard of non linear story telling...........
like did people forget about durarara? baccano? and plenty of series with multiple protagonists?
like i totally understand the critque of the people who hate the animation(its garbage)
but i found the story telling to be fine, its in the same style as kotaro isaka's rashomon style stories, where different characters each view each event in their own perspective, and all the events eventually lead them all into cross roads together.

| @Neostorm_Y Durarara and Baccano are paced much, much better than this. Tower of god's ep condensing way too many interactions and fights to have those multiperspectives, and have loss of depth in all of them. The issue isnt the different characters having own perspectives to lead to a crossroads but how its being executed and sacrificing pacing for what is resulted here. The webtoon had no issues for me and I loved this arc, Durarara and Baccano did this well too. Just this anime ep messed up a lot of things and is far less competently directed too than Durarara and baccano. This coming from a big fan of the webtoon and even liking s1 a lot. |

I'm a huge fan of the manhwa but this ep was absolute ass. Way too many closeups, stuff cut out from scenes that develop characters like akraptor there, too many things be going on and just shown and rushed like a checklist and the animation was dreadful too the entire episode. S1 gets a lot of crap for its animation but everything is drawn well and while some could be better, there was a lot more effort animation-wise with that season than this one, especially in this ep where raising standards for adpatation matters. Want to defend this since i love the franchise but cant do so this time. So awkwardly done.
| @MangagnaM I am also a big fan of the manhwa, and I was very excited for S2, but when the studio was announced my expectation dropped rock bottom, this studio has not done any significant work previously apart from doing in between animation in some anime like Suzume,Your name etc. When I said this on tog Subreddit, they literally downvoted me to oblivion. Now we can see how ass the animation is, Literally PowerPoint presentation, super closeup shots, bad story boarding nothing felt connected to each other, What saddens me that most that generic story manhwa like SL getting this much high budget, animation and here TOG getting peanuts. F**k you Sola Entertainment and Bandai. |

| s2 is more interesting , because revenge on that blonde bitchy |
NirvashX1 said: s2 is more interesting , because revenge on that blonde bitchy Do you really think we will even get to see her aside from the 5 seconds of screentime she had at the first ep? I feel like she is just gonna chill offscreen for many seasons ;d |
 |
| Did they make us watch some random eye shot for 20 minutes? Whose idea to put this much close up? It looks horrible. It's going downhill with every episode and now I'm truly concerned. I like to cope and believe they will fix it in blu ray but not a lot chance. |

@SideCharacterKal Even I, having read the webtoon, had trouble following this one...like an epileptic seizure the entire episode was all over the place. I feel bad for anime only fans that have to parse wtf was going on.
| @StateofOhayo the webtoon have been way worse |
| Viole vs Love was such a disappointment... Love is generally a really important opponent for Viole, removing basically all of Love's moves from the anime really makes no sense |
| Mostly set up in this episode, so things felt like they were dragging a bit. The ending was very hype though when they started the game. Next episode is going to be fire. (7/10) |

(7/10) Fire in what way? Like in getting burnt to coal? Ain't no way you think this is good and it will be even better ;d |

| I like how in the last minute the vampire club theme of the movie blade played xD |

| @GTRaijin I've been enjoying it so far. Sure the art style isn't as cool as the last season, but the first two episodes were good. This episode was a bit slower, but it was still enjoyable. I feel like next episode we will get more into the conflict with this game, and that will probably be hype. It's been a while since I've read the webtoon, so I kind of forgot the story details, and now its like I get to re-experience it. |
| The music always goes hard, and it's nice to pair it up with the story. But some of the animation this episode seemed a bit lackluster. |

| Everyone's complaining about the animation, but what's the deal with the test? We get two long winded explanations between the room game and the pitching game that both leave such massive holes in them they're almost meaningless. Which is then confirmed when the important going ons largely ignore them. |
| Viole really surprised Yihwa when he revealed his manly self towards her, though he's clearly not interested in her body. And Wangnan sure just keeps Miseng crying unwillingly, though they'd be a friendship group outside of the Tower for better. With that, the test is underway. The first test: The Trustworthy Room to acquire 6 out of 7 rooms, though this is limiting the test takers when it comes to Viole in the same manner, he's given an extra difficulty, because he can just simply conquer the test by his own power. Meanwhile, Akraptor trying to make amends for Miseng because he saw an inkling of his own sister, who's just barely surviving in a life stakes test, he at least keeps her company alongside Goseng and Wangnan. As for test administrator Love, Viole going straight for him to get his connector, it's not just desperation from Love's side, but of Prince as well, gathering like-minded members to take out Viole. Yup, I'm almost at the point of tapping out because of the rather horrible animation, but hoping that the story picks up from its erratic pacing. |

| @Bio Basically there is a bunch of rankers loyal to zahard and FUG is basically out to kill them so Love, being a loyalist, want to mess with Bam (Viole) and kill him but he can only do so legally hence the test. He even wrapped it up in the test they were already taking, the sneaky son of a gun. I do like Love as a character but man was that some shady BS. I really want to see how Bam became Viole soon, lot of backstory there. |
 |
| To be honest, I barely understood how the test is supposed to go. The only thing that's clear to me is that the winner needs to get 7 allies and 6 rooms. I think the pacing in this episode was bad and a bit confusing. Regardless of how much Viole has strengthened, I still doubt he can beat a Ranker. P.S. Screw you, Rachel. |
 |
| Guess I'll be dropping this anime if the next couple episodes are this unbearable to watch. Looks to me that they spent most of their budget on the OP and ED song lmao. |
| Man... and I thought Season 1's cast was bad. Seriously, this new set of characters is even worse. Where is Endorsi? And the green-skinned loli? I'm even starting to miss the dumb dinosaur dude. Come on... Also this Love dude sure sucks at explaining tests, huh? |

| @StateofOhayo Appreciate it, but I actually meant the mechanics of the challenges. Like what it means to take a room or whether a foul is an actual part of the catch game. |

| @Bio Oh sorry, I can't remember the details since it was explained like shit, but I think the whole thing was glossed over cuz Love wanted to trap viole into fighting him. As for that game I have no clue...like in baseball a foul is a hit outside the lines of the field but Bam didn't actually hit anything, to be honest I'd call that a ball off a wild pitch. |
|
| This show so far has the worst animation I've seen this year. |
・
| Test's are as convoluted as ever it seems. Can already tell the manhwa explained it better just this shitty ass studio can't do shit right. Anyways, Young-hee from Squid Games vs. Bamm next episode. And would hope the studio gives A fuck to animate it properly. |
 |
| they have rather playful tests in this second season, the room game actually looked like fun, maybe you could play this during a class excursion. No sexual tension between Nia a Wangnan detected, the scene with 2 bored youngsters in the room slightly indicated something for a second. |

| 3 teams in this last game: Weak team, strong team and the black men solitary! kekeke |
| Why is everything a stupid game now?? Why are the characters so lame? Headon selected Regulars that were fighters or had some sort of skill, everyone had at least a chance. Why do they have to pay to take the test?? if Headon selects you and you're broke that's it?? no chance of climbing the tower. Who do they pay?? what do they pay with?? what use does Jahad or the tower in general have for money? The money can't be for the administrators because these beings are godlike and im sure they don't give a shit about money, maybe there's a humanoid administrator that likes money but all of them?? so the money goes to directors? which are well below the administrator. also powerfull enough to not care about money? surely relics like the 13 swords are the stuff that they are actually trying to get. Why are all the directors corrupt? the 2 directors that appeared until now have their own motives and objectives. they don't care about the tower. Why doesn't jahad/ the tower keep his subjects in line? Why do they keep saying that reaching the top makes you godlike or gives you all the answers? we've seen plenty of rankers and none of them are either godlike or have acquired some sort of celestial wisdom. Quant is straight up an idiot. Animation sucks ass anyway you can't even watch this for the eye candy. It's now super edgy too |
