| This was horrendous. I really can't stand the yellow guy justifying beating the kid to death over not being like him. Apparently the show didn't skip anything so them going over it and eating barbeque while celebrating they succeeded after the kid got beaten to death was also the same in the manhwa :D |
| "Even if it has good reviews, if I don't like it then it is shit" -Some random anime character |
| Oh boy, this just keeps getting worse with each episode. Everything is just getting buried in dirt. Characters are ass, animation is below average, dialogues are stupid, overall it's just a massive letdown and the part with Wangnam forgiving his friend's killer was just the most braindead thing. Didn't think they could make this worse than it was in the previous episodes but it seems like they can. Guess I'll try to continue watching with a sliver of hope that this maybe, just m a y b e will get better. |

| We are reminded of the same question this series has always asked, "What are you wiling to do to climb the tower?" This was a nice return to form. I am in love with this series so much. |
| I haven't updated in years but now I have changed that. I'll be free soon. |

The test proctor hating FUG and then working for them unbeknownst to himself is some nice irony. Poor dude’s literally right next to his worst enemies and don’t even know it. It’s crazy I was literally just thinking to myself when Khun was gonna show up because I remember him being one of my fave parts of the first season. Hopefully we get to see what he been up to next episode. Wangnan forgiving Lurker actually had nothing to do with trying to get Viole to open up to him. Essentially he's forgiving himself as he knows in the future he will commit much more heinous and violent crimes than Lurker to climb the tower. I never said he was trying to get him to open up. I said it happened as a result, not necessarily intentionally. |

| That revenge plot was dumb as hell. WTF |
| This man will really have his eyes hidden like a hentai protagonist for the entire season huh... |
 |
| i think i'm clocked out on this season whatever good aspects of this have been ruined by this studio so i can't suffer anymore watching this |
 |
| Damn that was fast, felt like Nia never existed at all LMAO Ngl It's just Kevin Penkin OST that made me still watching this average adaptation. AHH KHUN IS BACK!! |
 |
| That shounen manga style of 'forgiveness' is kinda...lame but necessary development. Wangnam is a scum like Rachel was; deceiving and playing the victim so people would help her with her quest of climbing the tower. Though Wangnam in contrast, he will deceive his way up the tower but he wants to bring others with him and change how the tower works. Viole now is seeing another perspective to his quest of reuniting with Rachel, though I guess it's even more of dilemma now, with what exactly he will do when she sees her again. |

Your Anime have come to lead you now. Our strength shall serve as a luminous sun toward which all intelligence may blossom. And the impervious shelter beneath which you will prosper. However, for those who refuse our offer and cling to their western animation ways… For you, there will be great wrath. |
| this is retarded... revenge bad forgiveness good.... TLOU 2 lvl of ass Everything that happens in Tower of Ass is enjoyable only with suspension of disbelief... And i can't do it |
| I wished a different studio took the mantle for this season but I’m just content we got another season at all. Glad to see Kuhn at the end |
| Bam got some new teammates. |
| . |
| It's so unnecessary to kill the little kid. The dude's misfortune caused by his boss is no excuse for beating an innocent kid to death. And how could the bastard be forgiven? I don't get it. I'm sick of the typical cliche that the protagonists cannot get their hands dirty. Without the disgusting issues above, I would have given this ep a 4/5. |

| @Nurguburu And what is Wangnam exactly? He has the ring with the kings symbol on it and the show is entitled return of the prince. Is he the Kings son somehow with no memory or something? |
| This series deserves so much better, it is what it is I guess but it's a pity I read this part of the webtoon years ago and I liked the story enough to keep watching now, I just hope there will be some improvements along the way (sure... let's keep hoping...) Khun in the last seconds!!! I miss his character (but also, where's the scout uniform? And the ponytail? I admit, I was looking forward to both) |

| @Ri-iel Maybe they handled it better in the manhwa, but it all felt incredibly rushed here. Nia was a literal kid whose only wrongdoing was lying to protect someone who was basically family. Wangnan's initial anger and reaction was expected, but forgiving someone who not only consistently made his life hell, but also killed a kid for absolutely NO reason at all??? And then to go on and party/celebrate without any sort of mention of Nia again??? It just felt like a pointless character death. If Wangnan really thinks he will do worse things than everything that guy has done in the future, then yikes. |
| ☆ Watch Stars Align for soft tennis with a side of (canon!) queer rep, found family, and angst! ☆ |
| viole new team is assembled !! lets fucking gooo !! |
| The Tower of Betrayal. Ja Wangnan had some development, applying the iconic technique of many anime protagonists, solidifying his place in anime history. Although, personally, I would have liked him to lose an arm, Ja Wangnan understood that there will be worse things as he climbs the tower. Farewell, Nia-chan, may the force be with you. I hope they start giving more development to the other characters as they are still very flat and uncharismatic compared to those from the first season. I think the most interesting ones are Ja Wangnan, who seems to have the interest of both the test administrator and FUG, and Horyang, who hides his identity as a demon (does he look like Ishigami or is it just me?). Anyway, Khun finally appeared, the best character. |

| At first I thought: "wait, is this episode being rushed?" Few minutes later: "Hell yeah it is being rushed". They really skipped too much. The scenes that should be emotional like The devil in the right arm or Wangnan's griefing or the forgiving scene with the Lector were not emotional at all. Also they did Yinhwa and Prince dirty this episode. In the manhwa it was prince who received a botlte that should power him up, but he was too cautious to drink it himself so he knocked the Yinhwa's door and gave it to her, which caused her to get mindcontrolled. And probably the most disappointing part is that they didn't include the explanation as to why Wangnan and others got in the team lol. And how Wangnan tricked Viole. |
| Did they just completely forget to explain why they all passed, even after Love literally told Wangnan not to give Viole the connector because they will all fail? What the hell? How can an adaptation be this half assed? |
| hmm slowly opening up to the rest of the team |
 |
| Wangnan forgives Lurker for killing Nia JUST LIKE THAT LOL. That was some of the dumbest shit I've seen, he should've blown his head off with that poke ball instead of spewing the worst talk no jutsu I've heard. I hate this character. |

| mmm, I guess it was a good episode at first, Kang is cool, but it all went to absolute shit when Wangnan decided to forgive Lurker over killing Nya (I swear, these fucking korean names...), I HATE when dumb shit like that happens, like, he killed ur only friend just for fun and after u made an entire plan for revenge, you forgive him? Shiiiiiiiiiit. I though Wangman was going to be a good second protagonist, but now I see I was wrong, what a let down. Also, Nya was like "uuuuuh that grandmaaaa", bro u telling me he gave his life for an old lady that didn't even got a proper name??? This writing really know how to suck lmao |
Sorry if my english is bad (っ˘▽˘)っ~~~ Btw, cry about it.  |
| Nia!? Why? This episode felt more like Tokyo Revengers in terms of stupidity. They probably just wanted to get rid of Nia to save animation budget XD |

Oh boy, this just keeps getting worse with each episode. Everything is just getting buried in dirt. Characters are ass, animation is below average, dialogues are stupid, overall it's just a massive letdown and the part with Wangnam forgiving his friend's killer was just the most braindead thing.

| @GTRaijin GTRaijin said: it's just a massive letdown and the part with Wangnam forgiving his friend's killer was just the most braindead thing. Can't agree more. I can never relate to those ppl who can forgive killers like this. The killer's backstory doesn't weaken the bad taste in my mouth at all. |
|
| Why would Bam agree to help Wangnan? What did I miss? And also, why on earth would Wangnan forgive the dude who brutally killed a kid, his supposed dear friend, just mere minutes ago? Man, this writing is laughable. And the scene with all of them celebrating while Nia's corpse was in the other bedroom... yikes. |
| I WILL NEVER FORGIVE YOU... *2 milliseconds later* I FORGIVE YOU That scene was so lame. At least give it a bit of time.. His best friend dies by the hand of that guy, and he insta-forgives him because.. yeah. I wish they never made this scene. Other than that the series has been quite enjoyable for me, been having fun watching it so far, while also not trying to take it that serious. Looking forward to the next episode! |

Nagamasakun said: Again this nonsense of forgiving the villain after having done shit after he told the ridiculous story of his life, which no one cares about. I felt a lot of hate seeing this. My rating of 5 went to 1 on this shit, I bet the MC will forgive that blonde bitch too don't worry, I am sure he will forgive you too! |

| Jeez, 0 emotional impact. It's so sad the direction is this bad... |

| @FlorinGrigore That's true. No one forces me to do things. It's good to be alive. |
| Wangnan, never change pls. Bam is happy, I am happy. NOOO! Khun is not wearing the Boy Scouts outfit. |

| I guess not everyone call be all powerful, but tis a interesting turn of events. |
