The plan for this test was going way too well so of course some shit had to go wrong lol. Endorsi and Anaak are in some deep shit and that Paracule guy really had to go and fuck up Khun's plan. It should be exciting to see how everyone gets through this bad situation.
People on MAL refuse to actually enjoy watching anime.

Your taste in anime isn't a personality trait.

MAL is literally just anime Twitter as its own website lol.

I feel like the show really needs to work on how often they present new information through exposition and also how much time goes into actually explaining things.

Other than that, I can't wait to see the direction the show will take towards the end of it's first season(hopefully we get a season 2).

P.S. When they said "Bull" I REALLY didn't expect it to look like...well this:



To be honest it looks like somebody in the suit. lol
In the manhwa it was more imposing.

Things are getting interesting from now. What if It has over 100 episode series?
I can do this every week. “)

If they didn't rush and cut scenes and conversation then this should have been 21st episodes instead of 11th .
Well anyway good episode. Excited for next one!
BTW watch out for any spoilers!! ,be careful of it.

Damn things went a little dark at the end!

Really pleased with how they handled Anaak vs Fluff ball part. The anime also seemed to add many Bam and Rachel moments. It would be interesting to see how they handle the final 2 episodes.

Hyped for the next episode.

Anime started to go darker and I find it really good. But the fact that Bam is still protected by plot armor when everyone figthing for their lives is pretty boring to me. Also, it's been eleven episodes and we didn't see any kind of fighting spirit from Bam again. One of his friend died because of that attitude and he still didn't learned his lesson. There must be cruel results for this naivety. For example, most of his friends or Rachel should die soon.

When you build up a creature to be so troublesome that rankers run from it ,the image of a rubbery cyclops dog isnt what comes to mind LOL.I have to check what it looks like in the manhwa.

Was the whole "rankers run from it" in the original material? I don't remember such thing at all. The bull is supposed to be too strong for that level of the tower as it "came down here" but to say that even rankers can't handle it made me very surprised. That... doesn't seem very likely and I can't rememebr such thing in the webtoon.

It's anime only. Rankers don't give damn even if thousands of them attack unitely at single ranker. One major issue I have with this adaptation is that it is handling power system of TOG very poorly (as it is very important).

Rak called a guy Parasol. haha

The guy with the three vertical stripes on his shirt made it so far that I thought he'd be with the team for a long time. But, he just died without doing anything. (At least, I think he died.)

I like the way they foreshadowed the possibility of controlling monsters. I also like the tension created by giving the Green April to Endorsi.

I had always been wondering why I hated Rachel so much, but I think I figured it out. The first thing we see her do is act selfishly, but she is only ever talked about in a positive way. Yet, we are still shown signs that she'll do something selfish again. She's like the kid in school who borrows your pen.

I am confused again. Is the onigiri a mascot or is that his actual body?

The song that plays when the onigiri is doing something sounds nice. I wanna listen to its full version. lol.

An underwater hunt huh thats quite the interesting final test. To think that they will create a test that involves both gobs and dolphins though. Despite the challenge its nice to see Bam's friends work hard to support him. Shibisu sure had quite the close call there. Amusing in how the fearsome Bull was turned into a bet between Anaak and Endorsi though. Still looks like the tide is starting to turn against Bam and his friends. The enforcement agent sure is quite the character though. Overall an decent ep that combined decent action with intrigue. Looking forward to see how Bam and co will turn the tide.

Many details are skipped about tower so I suggest to read it's webtoon (only if ur interested and want to understand better).only if anime got 20-24 episodes. They have to pace like bullet train when norm is your regular taxi speed (so they cut conversation, info, sometimes manipulate plot to make it short ) . If you are enjoying anime then I do recommend to give webtoon a read (you won't be disappointed plus you will found what anime was lacking that gives one feeling like something is odd.

Ok this episode was really cool. It got really interesting towards the end.

And just like that, 2 fighters are KIA and 2 of the best girls are possibly out of action as well. Poor Shibisu felt slighted when the Bull ignored him at first XD

I had to try and ignore the comments section when I watched this episode. It appears something big is about to happen in the next episode. Don't know what though. I'll say though that the Tower really wants Anak dead to create a test with the purpose of killing her. Is her existence really that bad? The "test" could end up killing everyone as well.

Maybe the best episode for now or tied with the crown game ones, made me regain some love for the anime. The pacing felt really good this episode.
They cut a pretty nice dialogue where Bam was pretty badass, that's the only thing I'm sad about.

Leo, you really should pick up the webtoon. Not only you get a better grasp of what is happening but also, for me it's a far better experience than the anime. Don't get me wrong, the anime is good, but the webtoon is a work of genius. The only problem that most people have is that at the beginning it's a slow grind. But it's definetly worth it.
You need to put @ in front of the name to tag someone like @Leo.
or it works without @?


you have to use @ in front of someone's name, so they can be notified.

But if you already use "Quote", you don't need to use @ in front of someone's name, because replying to someone's comment by using "quote" the person you reply to will definitely get a notification, but it's free if you want to use @ or not when you already use " quote "

Hansung Yu (The blonde dude that looks like a woman) said it in the previous episode (I think he will say it again):

The floor of tests is not to see who is worthy of climbing the tower, but to eliminate any nuisance or potential danger to the tower. There is little to no issues killing every single amateur, if at least one of them is seen as a potential danger to the tower hierarchy and system. Turns out this test have 2 irregulars, two Jahad princesses (one of them half-blood) and a rebellious son of the ten great families.

I'm a bit confused as to why people seem to dislike this episode. I thought it was great. The bull and Yuga both are solid creepy enemies that don't seem like ripoffs of common RPG enemies. The music was fantastic. I also loved the slow buildup from "everything is going according to plan" to "the bull is attacking, but he's not really that tough" to "everything's gone so far south we're about to freeze in Antarctica."

The test wasn't done to test only Bam and Rachel, but to test everyone. The difference between this test (a test that could only be done because Bam is an irregular and met with the Administrator) and the other test it’s just that Rachel can participate (and then she would be able to climb the tower instead of being disqualified).
And their part is also dangerous, if the others can't stop the goblins they're dead.


and @Miale

Thanks for the explanation. It doesn't change my thoughts about it however. This just seems like a wasted opportunity to show a little more of Bam. This trial seemed like it was going to be very personal, but he doesn't even end up doing anything. Maybe on my binge re-watch it will make a little more sense.


Apparently I horribly misunderstood when they were explaining this last episode then. Because I was under the impression the point of taking the administrator test was to allow that person to become an administrator. And then once they were an administrator change the rules to allow her to climb.....

No they never said rankers run from the bull in the webtoon. Just that the bull is the strongest in the ecosystem down there.

In fact idk what the fuck was with this episode they explained nothing in it to the test and the point of it. It so much of a bad confusing direction for the anime.

Everyone out here panicking on whether or not Annak is going to killed by Endorsi. While I'm at least hoping Shibisu & Khun may pull something off to save them both.

Also is "The Bull" a beast/creature of Jahad or something? I'm not reading ahead in the manga, so don't spoil me or anything. But the eye on that beast looks similar to the 3-eye marking associated with Jahad. Considering how powerful it is and being controlled by the Royal Enforcement Division, would it be a stretch to say that the beast was tamed or created Jahad?
