Comments

I couldn’t help but laugh 😭 bro crying cause he found someone he can eat noodles with 😂😂

Luhbabytay

Where has that been announced? Because season 2 will only have 13.

Joshy Woshy

This season have 24 eps,and it was announced that there would be workshop arc

gojoreo1

Hyperbole

earthphoenix7068

This is not tagged Roshi

Oliver

yeah but its HOW they show it that matters

TOBSULTRAMAN80085

this season does feel kinda lesser compared to the first in multiple aspects. It's really too bad

Luciaron

Could just make it a long running series

Cream_That_Corn

Just start from the beginning honestly. S1 changed and left out so much already

Cream_That_Corn

Wagnan is super important

Cream_That_Corn

I believe you're thinking of Cassano if I'm correct but this event im talking about is about robdevil and horyang

Johnathan Shelton

Not even close

Cream_That_Corn

Not that bad. It is a problem though

Cream_That_Corn

The anime been changing or leaving out way too much. Still enjoy it but if anybody likes the anime then I highly recommend the webtoon

Cream_That_Corn

Nah. In the webtoon it was a character that's hasn't been in the anime yet

Cream_That_Corn

Cause maybe just maybe, it's a good show bro 🤯🤯🤯

Kryto Currencies

It lowkey is ngl

Joshy Woshy

They tie in 100% into later arcs

Joshy Woshy

(LIGHT SPOILERS) Do you mean season 2? If you mean season 2 I don’t think we could even start the Workshop Arc since it’s VERY long. I think they’ll introduce it but will stop there for the season. Season 3 they’ll probably start there.

Joshy Woshy

This was some god of highschool pacing lmao

Whyyeezus

'I'LL NEVER FORGIVE YOU" - 2 seconds later: "i forgive you" tf?? that shit pissed me off so hard

durtymuny

no

Alexander Flores

bo never seen it but vikings is one of the only shows that has had me invested in a long time

Alexander Flores

Also in the webtoon Viole was still going to eliminate everyone but was tricked by Wangnan who had given him the wrong connector allowing all of them to win.

Johnathan Shelton

Couple things, I don't know if yall remember when lurker first introduced rob devil, he called him the devil of the right arm and said that he defeated Hatz(swordsman from the first season who teamed up with lizard girl Anak and is famous at this point). He was actually a fake, Horyang was the real devil of the right arm and the one that defeated Hatz. Thats why robdevil was so afraid of him when he revealed himself.

Johnathan Shelton

9:44 😂

Raider

y the animation and art fumbling so hard lol? the manhwa is so much better 😂😂😂

cornett0

It's more of an ensemble cast tbf

Tyrese Marshall

Such a weird change

Tyrese Marshall

As an adaptation so far it hasn't been too good. The first 3 episodes of season 1 handled giving lore to the world pretty good. The first 3 episodes here which should have quite a bit of character interactions have been scrapped to hit moments.

Tyrese Marshall

Yeah they skipped alot of character interactions this season

Liam

They also keep skipping through character interactions so far I think they have skipped 4 chapters worth

Liam

They skipped alot of chapters so far they had more character interactions in the manhua but the anime seems to skip most of them especially bad with it this season.

Liam

terrible is an insane description for the season so far, its been kind what i expected, not like theyre gonna spend 2-3 more eps with this first arc.

Dorian Lopez

I’m fine with the fact that they sped through this part but I hope they don’t speed through the rest of the season

IzYaBoiMike

Yeah, idk about this season. The first ep was soo good. And i really wanted tog to have a good adaptation. But dawg this is terrible so far😭. I hope they have a good reason for doing this.

Zion Williams

@Jake Oh no, when I said assuming, I meant the characters. In the manwha Wangnan assumes Nia to be a girl and finds out hes a boy,,I'm assuming thats why they kept the pronoun switch, and yet they for some reason didnt keep the short moment where he realizes that.

Saki 🏴‍☠️✨

I don’t understand or feel anything in this episode this pacing is even worse than Loser ranger.

Panuwat Rattanapontee

The Nia thing wasn't people assuming, the subtitles used the wrong pronoun when Wangnan talked about him and It was corrected in this episode.

Jake Rosendahl

I thought season 1 was getting to the end of workshop, not stopping before it.

Jake Rosendahl

Waiting on my goat the ray barracuda to show up

hector torres

true I def think cause' this is supposed to be the "establishing arc".

WillGlacier

same all these complaints yet still here I am, watching the shit and enjoying

WillGlacier

heavy agree, i get the need for speed (lmao) but there r def moments that would benefit from being even just a little more dragged out

Saki 🏴‍☠️✨

A webtoon anime from 2020 fumbling oh who would have thought 😱 lol

sotonye ogan

I'm glad season 2 is getting an anime but the pacing was definetely fast, I'm glad for everything that was in the episode, but I wish certain parts like Nia's death was dragged out a bit so you could feel that impact

xDestroyer

That’s right. And i said L script writing. Not script writers. Learn to read bud

Guns

L Take. Oshi No Ko taught us these things. Author had heavy involvement with this to.

MethodTKT

@Joshy Woshy Yeah, I wonder how much is in-house and how much is outsourced. Apparently, the director was a photographer before this? Idk, just looking at the studio and staff has me really wondering wtf is going on.

botanbutton

NAH CUZ HE RLY DID LOL

Saki 🏴‍☠️✨

As an Anime only I can always watch shit that's been deemed unwatchable by Manga readers due to cut content I can cause I never know what I'm missing lmao but this episode Just yikes I literally feel no emotional attachment to any of the cast so far which makes it clear enough that they cut crucial character interactions and some of their history it made a few of the scenes lack any impact feel really awkward and really cringey for me icl

A

disagree about Demon Slayer. Its a battle manga. The plot doesnt need to be deep (and its already pretty deep) i think the problem people had was because it was short

Jazko

They robbed us. My boy kun had the boy scout drip on that part lmao

Sum1s0mewhere

Glad to see I'm not the only one bummed out by all the cut character moments,,like I get the faster pacing of course, but I feel like some choices are just sacrificing the characters or worldbuilding so much 😭😭 People have already been mentioning it, but it doesn't make sense to me that they didn't actually establish how Wangnan tricked Viole into passing them,,or the implications in Horyangs fight with Robdevil or how Robdevil had claimed to have beaten Hatz (swordsman from season 1) and Viole asked him about it after,,or even just something small like how people kept assuming Nia was a girl, but he was a boy. Like I swear, ik they have a lot to consider, but it really feels like these things could've been covered rather quickly for the most part and still would've added so much more context... Hurts extra because I'd actually been looking forward to an other season for sooo long and genuinely kept looking up when it'd be coming since the first finished,,but still fingers crossed that its only up from here 😔😔

Saki 🏴‍☠️✨

To be honest, Tower of God’s Webtoon material deserves a good adaptation from a good studio. Last Animation Studio did the first season justice, but this season lacks a lot in many departments. I hope the older if not a newer studio to pick up season 3 for the Workshop Arc

Joshy Woshy

Honestly I have no issue with the pacing this season so far besides a few things, even though the Manhwa I personally think is way better, this arc was super slow imo when I first read it, I personally think you guys should do a read through reading the manhwa on Patreon especially since the art evolves and gets so much better and the story gets more crazier but that’s just my opinion if you guys want to stay as anime onlys that’s fine I have no problem with that.

Franklin Saint

The animation seems to be very stiff during any sequence whether it be dialogue or action compared to last season

Joshy Woshy

I honestly don’t know why they changed animation studios. The other studio had way better animation and pacing imo

Joshy Woshy

It is pretty slow, but the build up for the next huge arc is 100% worth it

Joshy Woshy

Whatever was shown is really all you needed to see to be honest

ZO

It’s 100% NOT filler

Joshy Woshy

It definitely did get dirty tho😂 honestly in terms of Shounen type manga ToG the only manga/manhwa i compare to One Piece. The potential is huge for the type of story this is, even if anime bad :( hope people will check out webtoon more

Enryu

I feel like the reason why this arc is going so fast is because back when this arc was going on in the webtoon siu how a insane amount of hate. People did not like this arc at all so thats why maybe they want to move it along fast and get to the workshop

HarmonicsAsmr

how

Helpy

The pacing is terrible sim, stop the cope. This pacing hurts the anime and it’s not intended lmao

Helpy

Damn I haven’t read the webtoon but if my show got done dirty I’d rather them not have made it at all. You’re better than me 😂 Hope it improves

Helpy

Tripping, MT is controversial but the story and world is interesting even outside the characters (Dragon god, Laplace/other demons, Politics behind the scenes) MT has good animation but consists mostly of story and character decisions. Demon Slayer is more of an example of being carried by animation and a juvenile plot with no depth. Still enjoyable though

Helpy

Yea I already knew they would be condensing a lot of info this season. The part we are at now is actually like 10 episodes into s2 of the manwha, and each manwha chapter is the size of 3 "normal" manga chapters. There would be no way to do all of that without another 100 episodes and get to anything that anyone cares about. So I think speeding through this part while hitting the important notes is probably best. The gist of this is that Baam struggled with his betrayal, and by meeting Wangnan, who forgave the person that betrayed him - Baam gained some insight. I believe that at some point he was struggling with whether he wanted to "get back" at Rachel. I think meeting this group of people may have given him something to think about.

Ren Lichtfoot

Season has felt like filler so far

Zach

TFW FUG rigged both F2 & F20 (the most critical chokepoints for advancing the Tower, since after that point on by the time the next chokepoint happens at w/e Floor, Baam is already probably too busted for it to matter no matter what compared to even test administrators on those Floors) to speedrun any% their new Slayer candidate through. In case you missed it (because S1 translated it weirdly, but I suppose not exactly entirely wrong since the meaning is essentially the same), Submerged Fish is the moniker Yu Hansung is called, as was stated in S1 during the "fight" between Ren & Yu Hansung (the title was technically translated as Deep-Sea Fish, so many people might have not realized the moniker is the same one as mentioned here by Augusgus). Hell I suppose you probably would have to count Headon & the F2 Administrator as part of the same plot too, since they for sure know about it since they were literally 100% critical for the plan to succeed in S1 to begin with (so at least 4 people on-site knew about the plan to make it possible, probably more among the higher ups of FUG at w/e Floor their base is at)

Skebaba

im anime only and im loving it

Redback

Drop the anime and just read the webtoon with us.

Danger Tomato

Thank you very much keep up the info if the miss something none spoiler. Much apricated :)

Oliver

nigga fuck Ja Wahgwan's arc. I care about Bam's storyline, who are these extras lmao

Delinda Arts

ToG S2 is verrrry mid so far

David Emerson

I have to say I'm glad Tower of God is getting a second season but, so far, the webtoon is much better. The animation is a bit wonky at times and they've cut out a lot of moments where the characters bond (they managed to fit 23 chapters into 4 episodes 😅). It’s a decent adaptation and I’m still excited to watch the rest of the season, but I'd recommend anyone who enjoys this anime to check out the webtoon.

Moons

so ive recently read the manhwas beginning again they dont actually explain why voiles on their team just yet even though they shouldve. Its no spoiler if anyone says why it just is something that shouldve been said sooner

SnailSpray

Half the audience had trouble understanding the complicated ass game in the first place when everything was rushed through. We don't even see a real reaction from Viole so it’s easy to just go “I guess that’s what was supposed to happen” and roll with it when you’re already confused

Moroni W

Damn looks like the adaptation is getting demolished. This is kind of scaring me for ORV that Crunchyroll is also making. Both Tower of God and God of High School got/are getting pretty fucked by cuts and changes.

King of New York

I guess I’ll just reread where S1 left off at 🙂‍↕️

Krype

lol how is no one catching that from watching the ep, they showed him bringing his - went to viole - grabbed the one viole needed - then promised to give it to him once he helps him - and then it ends on all of them passing, learn to put 2 and 2 together lmfaoo

sim

/No Spoilers/ I’ve read the source material years ago and I can definitely say the studio is rushing it, but I understand why. There’s no guarantee for a season 3, so they’re trying to get to the meat and potatoes before times up. This arc starts really slow, and could easily be 2 cours by itself. if they were really going the actual pace of the story there would be 50 episodes this season (if they’re stopping we’re I’m thinking). Remember everyone, season 1 is technically the pilot, this is where the Show really begins. Annoying as it is, what’s done is done, cross your fingers that it won’t be so obvious anymore, but I have no doubt a lot of stuff will be cut out.

KoolaidManStoleMyMoney

I know people said they hate slow pacing but nigga DAMN!!! We didn't say Speedrun shit

ShaquanVirse

Nothing against The Answer studio, but a more action or bigger named studio should of picked up Tower of god, like how Bones has my hero academia, MAPPA has Jujutsu kaisen, Ufotable has Demon slayer etc... I don't know I'm scared what kinda pacing issues there gonna have for that person and the workshop battle arc

Deandre

Only 3 minutes in and my brain clapped? You sure y'all not an episode ahead? 😂😂😂

ShaquanVirse

Because I read the webtoon I didn't realize that the show hasn't shown how fucked up the tower is, it's such a Normal response to Kill someone to get what you want especially if your weak and they are no "good" people in the traditional sense in the tower

Stephan Braham

Its not even just bad pacing but them also completely cutting out character moments. I thought they would at least show that Wangnan tricked Viole but they cut that too, so now the anime onlys think that Viole accepted them as teammates.

Skyye

Yup completely cut that out, along with all the other character moments they've been cutting out.

Skyye

the manhwa is too long to have a good pacing. Its literally 300+ chapter for the s2 only and another 205 and still ongoing ep for s3 for a total of 623 chapter that they have to fill in the anime and tog don't really have filler so. Honestly we only 4 ep in and they skipped some scene already that were kinda important for character bonding. They will skip A LOT of scene in the anime if they managed to go through the end with it. This ep really showed how they struggle to pace thing correctly.

Sam Al

@Fizzy Being slow meant that shit wasn't really skipped thank god. A solid adaptation overall, in terms of adding a cool visual style to a 10/10 story. ToG on top of skipping stuff is draining the aura visually for me. Finger crossed for the next set of eps

Tyrese Marshall

Glad it ain't just me smh I love the source material so much since it was 1 of my 1st webtoons. Just felt like its been missing something but couldn't really put my finger on it lol will still watch anime hoping it gets on track

Juan G.

I was willing to accept the downgrade of the art style when the animation was good in episode 1 but clearly by now that hasn't held up either.

Skyye

They cut the part out that Wangnan actually tricked Viole into letting them win by swapping their remotes, which was a terrible decision from whoever made the call. Also for Khun, him looking the same was also anime only. He has a very different look in the manhwa (that people liked) and they also cut that out for some reason.

Skyye

this is important. So they didnt explain this but the test was for viole to pass if he got the remote from the administrator. ja wangan got the remote and promised to give it if he got help. after he got the help he gave him his remote not the administrators. so when viole thought he was pressing the administrators remote he thought he would win by himself, he actuelly pressed the button to join ja wangan's team and didnt in the end pass by himself.

bobo

The arc we are in

Stephan Braham

crazy thing is undead unluck was still very enjoyable the premise of the show kept me hooked

Fizzy

Yeah this part

Imari

Undead Unluck moved at 0.5x speed, this moves at 2x speed. Annoying because they were my 2 of my 3 most anticipated anime in the last 2 years

Tyrese Marshall

Fun fact those mini pods have multiple functions. They can be used to kill or cause a distraction like the smoke ones. Also you need a lot of money to climb the tower it's cut content that was in the manga but left out of the anime but yeah basic if you fail or need to wait for the next test you need to wait until the test and pay you way in the mean time.

sash wing

Have you seen Black Sails, if so how does it compare?

Tyrese Marshall

Yeah, the pacing is a little..... I really wonder what happened with this season's staff. There's new staff but there's still staff from season 1, and there are some great animators so I don't understand what's going on, so weird.

botanbutton

Honestly for the amount of content covered it should have had 24 episodes. A lot is speed run through with skipped scenes. Like the mini pods they throw and why climbers need so much money. Most of that is lost content the anime skipped.

sash wing

Yehhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

Hasnain Khan

bam uchiha and ja wagnaruto

Daniel Borrego

Yeah they combined multiple chapters including two characters back stories.

sash wing

I keep feeling like the girl with the glasses lowkey strong asl pretending to be weak

xProKnockz

Also they didn’t mention it but if I remember correctly the reason they all passed instead of just Viole is because wingman tricked him at the last second and switched the controllers.

Basedra

Dude what is going on with the quality of anime lately?! Animation is one thing but the pacing and scripting writing has been out of whack as of late. I can understand removing some scenes for pacing sakes, but sometimes it’s removed for drawn out dialogue that can be maybe 3 minutes tops. That Viole getting tricked and reacting to it scene could have taken maybe 20-30 seconds. Definitely didn’t need to be cut out

Certifiedan3

Damn wagnan forgot about nia immediately went straight to having a party right after

Chima Dumkwu

Compared to how good the source material actually is, i cannot say this is a good adaptation at all but glad it got an anime

Enryu

The arc we are in or the next?

Oliver

Buddy really tried to shove a poke ball down buddy throat that’s crazy

Kd

Yeah this pacing really bringing me back to god of highschool… Dont think they made this very clear at the end but Wangan gave Viole the wrong connector which was the one for his team. That’s why everyone passed and Viole didn't end up winning alone as he had intended.

Moroni W

Wanna see more of Bam in his own show but otherwise I like this so far(haven’t read the manga) but ion need to see this arc overly fleshed out ngl im happy to see them progress out of it

JotaroDrake

I think they want to focus on the workshop arc and they sacrificed the pacing of this arc so they could fit everything else better. This arc will be the weakest of this season after all.

bblala

With was is coming next, I think it will be better. They did make the pacing fast for this arc but it is by far the weakest arc of season 2. Khun episode next week they better do my goat justice🙏😭

bblala

Lmao bro the pacing fucked me up so bad I felt like I was high every blink I took it was a different scene🤣

Kd

the pacing will get much better the first 4 episode covered 24 chapters, the first two episodes covered like 3 chapters each. episode 3 and 4 covered like 9 chapters a piece. there are still 30 chapters left to cover with 9 episodes left so the pacing should improve

PAuguste

The plot is the only thing good about this season. L animation, L script writing.

Guns

That's me with mushoku tensei, trash series with the best animation an isekai anime has.

TheMonarch

I knew I wasn’t tripping when I said the episode looked “patchy”💔💔😭 first goh now tog

Drey

I agree. i think those shows are so few and the animation makes it somewhat enjoyable, but i agree with it still lacking in the plot department

Jazko

It’s been forever since I read this part of the manhwa but if they left out some nice details that would’ve added A LOT of context to how things played out.

Basedra

Tower of god already suffers from terrible pacing in the webtoon( even worse in the later chapters), and the anime makes it even worse xD

TheMonarch

In the webtoon, Wangnan tricked Viole into passing everybody. Viole thought he was the only one that was going to move on.

x_XBurner361

Yeah they sold the bag heavy on this season, people were already complaining about the art-style change now there are pacing issues sucks man cause this is where tower god fully delves, into the world building characters and lore

Fizzy

God I hope this doesn’t turn into a Go Go Loser Ranger situation where key character development scenes are cut out for the sake of rushing through an arc. Like we waited so long for this show to come back and it’s gonna suck if they botch this. I already am not onboard with the new animation style but please don’t let there be too many noticeable pacing issues

vikings vikings vikings vikings vikings vikings pls

Alexander Flores

@Jazko -- This wasn't an option, but for me, it's probably a show that has nothing but great animation. Those resources would be better off enhancing an already great story.

Merfhew

Nah this episode felt like a bad stage play. "I know we're in an intense moment right now but let's pause the fighting so we can listen to my emotional monologue about how bad my life was!" Three times! No way that would happen outside of a drama class...

Quintin

My favorite webtoon deserves some respect from this studio

Danger Tomato

Seems like they cut some stuff go go loser ranger style, hopefully its just this section and doesn’t continue into later episodes. Also go Big Bill

PJ Rivera

I dont know what hurts more, a great story with a terribly paced anime or a great story with bad animation

Jazko

they are coming wait 20 more mins

Jazko

Felt Bam’s acceptance of them was a bit quick and the animation wasn’t the best. Also curious why Khun looks the exact same 6 years later. Really enjoyed the content though

King of New York

Waiting on the Webtoon Warriors high on copium

Helpy

Hopefully this doesn’t sound bad but tog season 2 is just not hitting as hard as szn 1. Massive drop off in animation and the artstyle is just not it for me

Tre

Yeah pacing needed work, still an interesting series to watch

Lightbane1905

just wanted to add some detail that wasn't properly addressed in the anime, the robdevil dude called himself the devil of the right arm, and in the webtoon horyang seemed to imply that was actually his nickname, so they kinda messed up the whole "hey lil bitch you're pretending to be hot shit using my name" thing
