| Character design and art-style were ai'ght. Directing and pacing weren't. Never read the source material, apparently it's a webcomic. But if it's anything like the anime, I don't think I'll bother. |
| I don't consider it anime, because of it's origin. |

| I've only read part of it but it's been worth the read so far. The focus is definitely more on action than romance from what I've read. Intelligence isn't a big part of Bam's character but there's plenty of other characters that are smart. |

I wouldn't consider it, yeah. it is just an opinion after all, not a fact. there's one exception I'm willing to make however. if the series is a passion project by the director, and not some committee ordered advertisement. It's hard to find non-commercial anime these days so I have my doubts. also keep in mind, I don't know anything about these two shows or why they were made. |

It doesn't focus much on romance, almost doesn't focus at all, but there is plenty of action. The main character is a clueless wimp at the beginning because he basically grew up in a dark cave. He didn't even know what the sky was. But later he of course gets some serious character development (but you won't really see that in the anime). I'd say while not being exceptionally smart, he's not an airhead shounen protagonist-like character either. I personally love the webtoon, as you can guess from my signature. Will you like it? Maybe you will, maybe you won't. I recommend watching the anime first and then reading the webtoon from season 2 onwards, if you're interested. The anime is doing a decent job adapting. The webtoon's first season wasn't very high quality. It's one of those stories that get better as the universe expands. |

| Fanboys: "It's only been 2 episodes! Don't judge the show yet!" Also fanboys 2 episodes into ToG: "iTs aNiM3 oF tHe yEaR!" |

I read Solo Leveling too, so I can at least say that you won't like the art in ToG. I dropped ToG after a few ch several years ago. Try The Breaker, I'm pretty sure the art is what hooked you into reading Solo Leveling in the first place since you're referring to it |

| ToG focuses a lot on action and none on romance. I thought it was a good manhwa, it similar to HxH tho HxH is better. I was fine with the first season since its main goal is to set up background of the tower and to set up MC's story. But as others said, the second season really picks up some action. |

| I decided to start reading Tower of God because the hype surrounding it was immense. I got 119 chapters in [out of about 475] and I finally decided to drop it with a rating of 5 or 4. I kept giving it second chances, but I just couldn't see what any of the hype was about. The MC is very stereotypical "fight for my friends", the story bounces around a lot, between the character shifts and time skips, so you dont really get attached to any particular character and on the whole I personally didnt find it enjoyable. A lot of people keep telling me to "keep reading, it gets SO good later on!" but why should I keep reading when 119 chapters wasn't enough to get me immersed??? On the whole, I think Tower of God is pretty damn overrated (And I read a good amount of Manhwa), at least from what I experienced, but this is just an opinion of course and people can feel free to disagree. |

| I heard that thare are a lot of betrayals in the manhwa, but that it isn't too bad. When it comes to the anime adaptation I can't understand how people say it isn't anime when it's literally made by the same studio as Orange, is fully voiced in Japanese and even the opening and ending are despite sung by a K-Pop group also in Japanese.Its a Korean manhwa that turned into an anime. |
 |
| As someone who’s read the source material I can tell you the fans who say ‘it gets better’ or makes up some shitty excuse to make you keep watching is wrong. Sure the story delves deeper further along but if you’re not already enjoying the first 3 episodes then you probably won’t enjoy everything else. |
 |
| I think it's good, not the best of the season tbh, for example, Gleipnir and Kaguya-sama is a lot more enjoyable for me. |
 |
| Not my favorite anime, boring premise and not exactly what I expected. In the end, I prefer crime dramas and thrillers. |
| i'll be honest with you, i hated the webcomic and i was even saltier that ToG was the first webtoon to get adapted, so i haven't watched it yet. anime-onlys seem to be liking it so far though. |
