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

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.

But hurray for karaage with sauce!

@Neostorm_Y So you agree with me, you just had to look up my other opinions so you could diss me for... God knows what purpose.

Anyways, JJK S1 was pretty good, the characters were mostly interesting and the story moved forward at a reasonable pace. S2 went to shit as the flashback arc was meaningless and the shibuya arc was a total mess, even the animation was mostly shit in my opinion as I hate that particular style. The entire 2nd season moved the story forward about a day's worth, GTFO.

@Deansdale no it wasn't i followed the manga since it was released before the anime existed, entirely carried by its animation, you guys are biased since you saw the anime first, ifyou read the manga first then you would realize its generic dogshit, even kagurabachi is unironicly more original than jushit midsen
the author can barely draw for shit, and the characters look like togashi's drawnings when he was bed ridden.
and the plot is so generic its laughable, also the pannel cutts were horrendous, the author should take notes from the witch hat author manga for the panneling, and the holyland/kengen ashiran author for the paneling transitions for fights.

this gege literally stole all the worst aspects of bleach, which was the blank background contrasts for lazy drawings to focus on the characters, which gege didn't even do

@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.

@MangagnaM because this animation studio sucks basically as was already explained, however i still don't think some of the critiques are on the correct path,
the transition animations and the fights are whats bad, not the dialogue or story telling

they literally just show single shot character mouth movements which is rather dumb and easily could be interpreted as budget cutts, for some reason the korean one piece gets some how a tiny tiny fraction of a budget, which is insane to me.

why is it that all the potentially decent shows get absolute shit studios and animation budgets, while absolute garbage like garbage slayer or jushitmidsen get 100$ million dollar budgets, which completely carry the show.

for fucks sake, i could close my eyes randomly pick an anime, literally any anime that isn't outright controversial (like pupa, or boku no pico) throw 100$ million dollars on it, then it would suddenly be considered by the anime only normies the god of all anime lmao.

@Marinate1016 lmao I remember how 4 years ago you talked some bullshit about aoty when this garbage was popular, what's now you fucking gay

@aristotle003 if this had even half the budget of jushit midsen it would be anime of the year, actually pluto would be, but it was last year some how not nominated i think due to it being in winter half release?

the thing about tog is it requires a huge amount of enviromental animations to be good, because one of the most interesting and anticipated things, about tog is the tower itself,

and im pretty sure made in abyss literally took some inspiration from this, because the whole tower was supposed to be portrayed as mysterious, and the author had mountains of notes of creatures and factions as well as megastructures in the tower, and the anime was supposed to show some of these structures in the background, yet they didn't really take advantage of anything in the anime form,

imagine if this got a mukusho tensei level of adaptation where every thing was done perfectly and the anime even added extra scenes added in the blog by the author like omakes etc it would be anime of the year definately

The old man seems to have developed an attachment for Misang, because she reminds him of his daughter. It seems that something tragic happened to her, and he wants to make sure that nothing happens to her.

The Trustworthy Test is complicated. I had to listen multiple times to specific parts to understand how it works.

The general objective is to capture 6 rooms, including Room 608 and get a team that consists of at least 7 people. The remotes have slots to allow rooms to be captured and for Gatekeepers to guard said rooms. The rooms can only be taken from the Gatekeepers and one person from a team has to remain in a room.

On the other hand Viole needs to take the collector from the ranker in a baseball-esque game. He has three strikes, otherwise he fails. But it seems that Viole has the ability to stop people and objects from moving and this is gonna end up being quite the battle!

I’m excited to see what comes next!

Still feels a little weird with the new cast and time skip, but things are looking like they're falling into place.

It seems like we can't escape predators, they're everywhere.

I wish they had maintained the old art style. I understand that they changed the animation studio, and that this art style is attempting to be more similar to the manhwa, but the previous art style was so distinct and stuck out to me the most. I'm still going to enjoy the anime anyway since Wangnang is one of the best characters introduced during this arc (in my opinion lol).

Behold of my awesomeness~
controversial and/or sensitive topics likely devolve into the same repetitive, derogatory, abusive, and harassing comments can no longer be posted.

Damn... the showdown has already started. I don't trust many of them but it is what it is. This is a game. I don't want nice people to get hurt. Is Bam struggling?
