I felt we needed more time for this to happen organically. I assume it's an adaptation thing and is probably better solved in the source material. That said, this is the best episode to date. Good action, fitting soundtrack and that cliffhanger at the end. I don't know reasons Rachel has for doing what she's doing, but it's hard to sympathize with her with these kind of scenes. |

That Anak line was cringe. It never happens in the manwha and this scene is contrary to her personality. Overall, ToG anime is a weak adaption but still a fairly good anime as a standalone. |
| Man, best episode till now! I really loved almost every scene, except the "we are all friends and will climb the tower together" bullshit and the bull fight (did they have to change it ?). But they really did justice to the push scene. All board the Fuck Rachel train! The train has finally left the station! And for all the anime only who think this is the sole reason manwha readers hate Rachel, think again. Season 2 is in a league of its own. All in all, a great episode. |
| I KNEW IT. I KNEW SHE WAS BAD. A lot of the webtoon readers hated on Rachel early on, now I know the reason. I'm not a webtoon reader but the anime foreshadowed something like this was going to happen since Rachel was trying to avoid Bam because she knew it would make her weak. Go back to your friends, Endorsi, and Yuri, Bam. They all love you for who you are and were willing to give their lives for you to pass this test for the girl you love. She knew that and she betrayed him anyway. Fuck this bitch |
 |
| WHAT THE FUCK?! I HATE RACHEL BRUH SHE WAS ALREADY ON THIN ICE, SHE JUST FUCKED HERSELF DUDE |
| This episode was a culmination of all the problems of the adaptation. The two worst parts of the adaptation so far have been Yuri and her group and the pacing in general, not giving enough time to breath for the cast to organically grow the way they are supposed to and not giving enough context in world building to build a coherent framework, and all these problems culminated in this incoherent mess of an episode. Everything on Yuris group was changed (not just in this episode but from episode 1) and the only parts that resembled the source material this episode was Yuris fight and Evans interactions. From cutting out two whole characters of her group from the start, to squandering Khuns genius interaction with his 'brother' and Kurudans nonsensical attack (he is a wave controller they brought for a specific reason and it wasn't because he can hit things with his hammer and also not teleportation). All these smaller problems made this episode hard to watch, because of all these small changes the puzzle pieces that fit together so nicely in the source material feel forced and don't make much sense in this adapted 'finale'. I wasn't disappointed in the adaptation so far, because I think some changes made sense or even improved on the source material, while other didn't detract that much, but with these changes you can't just barrel the finale the way they did. They changed stuff beforehand, so they had to live with the consequences, but instead they tried to fit the changed square shape into the round hole of the source material and while the round shape fit for the source story with all the small changes made the square did not fit at all. This episode was a disaster adaptation wise, I hope anime only viewers could at least take away a little bit from that chaos. |

| If that's why everyone was saying they hated Rachel, then go f*** yourselves. Seriously? That's it? This could have been way more impactful if webtoon readers didn't spoil everyone everywhere |
| Even tho mr simp got yeeted out of the bubble we all know that with his power of friendship and never giving up hell make it to the top to watch some sparkly yellows. Jezus christ this series is so basic it makes naruto and bleach look complex. |
 |
| I knew that little bitch wasn't to be trusted! FUCK RACHEL! My heart completely broke for Bam when she pushed him 😭 Yuri is... such a bad bitch! She is just so awesome! Can't believe there's only 1 episode left! This weeks ep was shocking enough, how the hell is the entire season gonna end?! Hope there will be a season 2. |
 |
| So Rachel betrayed Bam, I mean it was predictable not shocked at all since the webtoon readers couldn't shut up about how much they hate Rachel. Princess Yuri to the rescue. Hansung Yu I think he's becoming one of my favorite characters of this show. Oh looks like someone from the Khun family showed what is he up to was that really it, hope to see him more next episode. |

This could have been way more impactful if webtoon readers didn't spoil everyone everywhere There's clearly more to Rachel's betrayal than just sabotaging the test for Bam. But I totally agree about Manwha readers keep posting spoilers... it's not cool and it ruins the anticipation and enjoyment of watching the series |
|
| Well, Rachel is now worse than Malty in my book. I knew it was going to happen since I have read it but still was emotional. Hopefully, they will continue to adapt this. |
 |
| even though I read the first season of the webtoon and knew this was going to happen, I couldn't help but shiver when Rachel pushed Bam |
 |
| That came out of nowhere... except it didn't. Her escort during the crown test, the uniform they were wearing, her behaviour until she was exposed. She already had firm believes in something else as well as a different goal. Going by the smirking administrator disposing of Bam the irregular was a win-win situation for the monarchy and whatever Rachel is part of. Pretty epic episode that is at least on the level of the previous one. What an epic fight between enforcement and the princesses. The discrepancy in terms of power was quite incredible. Bam killing the Bull when in it was in its element was also astounishing. The bit about the Khun family was fairly interesting. Seems like they have a princess called mary protegeeing the family. |

| Whaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaat the fuck?! Source readers (as always) had already expressed their hatred for Rachel but I would never have imagined it would be for something like this. I'm still in shock. And reading the comments, it's true that she's the only one with those reptilian eyes... huh. The thing is, I don't hate her, at least for now. On the contrary, I'm rather interested in why she did it. Leaving that aside, Yuri is here and what an entrance, what a fucking beast! Too bad as soon as she arrived, she left. Endorsi is best girl by far and now we've seen a little more of Yuri... I love my princesses! |
| Damm Endorsi's comment in that tense moment sure was a fun one. Still it served to provide the perfect cover for the counterattack of the princesses. Though the enforcer's strength sure proved to be overwhelming even for them. The intervention of Yuri and Laure sure proved to be timely in saving the team though. Khun's strategy as ever though sure proved to be effective. The combat ability of Yuri though sure was impressive. She made the fight against the enforcer look like she was fighting children. The fight between Bam and the bull though sure proved to be quite the tense one but Bam sure delivered an impressive victory. That betrayal in the end sure was an unexpected one. Curious to see how this series will end next week though. |

| This episode was quite hype! Especially that ending I was like lalala wait what yuri what a cool appearance. so lots of things are going different then was the test shouldve been normally. I quite like how everything gets serious and fcked up, so exciting. im hoping for some crazy unexpected things to happen next week in the final last episode, lets go |
 plz @ me |
| I really liked the push, even though it will be explained later. Also the scene of Bam drowning was cool. I wonder if JVG will appear, and I hope he sounds more mature. |
| Well, I didn't expect to stick around since I never found the concept of the series intresting yet here I am watching the whole anime form epo 1 till this one, I liked what they are doing so far. AddaeAkono said: After all that hard work Bam did to protect Rachel, she kicks him to the curb again. Stop simping Bam. I think some people here needs to give Bam a brake already, He is still just a kid and most likely have never been betrayed by anyone till now, lets not forget that it was Rachel that saved him when he was alone in the cave , I don't like simpping but I cannot say that Bam is doing so, He is only acting his age and don't know better yet , that being said ....... I hope Karma hits Rachel so hard that she well lose her head. |

| All I have to say is this episode was the best episode of the series so far! |

| Is there any info on when the OST releases? |
| This aniem skcs ass, they completely skipped any mention fo the irregulars enryu phantaminum and urek mazino. Fck this anime its getting a 3 rating from only cause of the animation and ost. Everything else scks ass fcking hate the director who helmed this skipped everything with the oni princess to. |

| At least this episode has gotten my attention again by introducing new characters and events. The last four or so episodes have been so damn bland and uninteresting that I almost considered dropping ToG. |
| As a webtoon reader, I'm very satisfied with this episode. Penkins did god's work. |
| If you read Eleceed you're automatically my friend. |
| Well that's what you get for simping! Despite the whole "We gonna climb this tower together" being corny and outta place... IMO this was the best episode of the series so far. |
 |
| Since it had a slower pace, the Kevin Penkin OST style fitted better, so paying attention more to music than the story made the episode more watchable I guess. Since everyone who love this shitshow hates Rachel, she will probably become my favorite character. Oh, but the good news is it will finally end next episode. Hopefuly it won't recieve as much attention it had if it has a 2nd Season |
 |
| Great sound. I have no idea why they scrapped Rachel saying "You have to die here". Also, a lot of stuff important for future character building is thrown out, but Rak jumping with Paracule is there. Overall, 4/5. It was good, but I still heavily disagree on their decisions what to prioritize. It just feels like something that has zero potential to ever be close to the webtoon with this studio. |
| Nice battles this episode! Endorsi and Anak briefly turned the tables on this hairball/riceball guy before getting overpowered again. They put up a good fight up to the point where Yuri showed up! She's crazy strong though, holy shit and I feel like she's not even trying!! Riceball is done in by an ally of Yuri! I WANT MORE OF YURI Khun's plan comes in clutch again, with help from Lauroe and the small girl! Surprise to see another member of th khun family show up! That cliffhanger though! Well, now I understand why Rachel is not much liked by the community.... Can easily say, best episode for me! |
