New chapter was okay. I thought they were about to bring up Axis users but now I wonder why a family head is showing up.

I don't know why the author revealed axis in the first place. They aren't going to appear because they're basically gods.

Too many characters, cast is too large
Special snowflake MC has made the entire cast worthless. Never explicitly make your MC overpowered in a battleshounen while inflating antagonists to match. You know you wrote yourself into a corner when the characters themselves are worried about becoming useless because it's impossible to catch up with MC
Rachel did nothing wrong, MC is a special snowflake piece of shit literally destined to be gud and in-canon the world bends over backwards for him
Sage because gookshit

Worldbuilding. In this case, somewhat literally.

He didn't mean ti reveal them, when SIU was just a newbie, he shared a LOT of what he had planned for his over all verse, it was really detailed stuff, like on a Sanderson-esque level.

When he realised he could actually make money from ToG, he deleted all the info, but there was no way to put the genie back in the bottle once it was out.

I don't think Baam is a snowflake, the only reason Baam works is BECAUSE he is an irregular, otherwise the question would arise that why isn't anybody else taking on zahard.

With baam being an irregular yet too weak to counter FUG, they finally have a tool they can use.

I'm a big fan but this thread is going to get deleted since the mods are easily triggered by anything related to Korea

Even though it's specifically NOT against the rules? Pic relevant

>I don't think Baam is a snowflake,
Not even going to bother spoiling this because this series honestly isn't worth it.
Baam is the child of 2 out of the 3 original tower climbers or whatever.
BBEG was the third, was friends with the other 2.
BBEG had a cruch on the Girl
Girl cucked BBEG with the remaining person, who was Guy
I can't remember the plot to well but I'm pretty sure his weapon is special snowflake related to that too.

So yeah MC is a super special snowflake, he's the child of BOTH of the BBEGs equal. MC is not normal even for irregulars.

>2012
>thinking mods are the ones who make the rules
Remember nipple mod? Or antiloli mod?
Me neither, because they got fired for making up retarded rules.

Baam kind of needs to be insanely powerful though to do anything in the tower. There is far too much powerful shit there that like things just as they are for him to just be some dude. I mean even now there is a shit ton of people who could crush him.

If the writer knew what they were planning, then why introduce such a huge cast of characters whose only purpose is going to be to either job or be fodder against the antagonists fodder? And 90% of the character aren't even that, most are side characters who might have an interesting story but you're never going to see it and it's just skipped over.

It's not Sup Forums, fuck off.

>MC is not normal even for irregulars.

He is still pretty damn weak for an Irregular. Compare him to people like Zahard, Enryu, Urek, Half the family heads, The top 3 princesses. He might have a pretty strong background but in comparison he is dealing with people he needs something like that.

Go cry about it

>most are side characters who might have an interesting story but you're never going to see it and it's just skipped over.

Yeah that's a major weakness of tower of god. It has a lot of interesting characters with decent backstories that just kind of vanish. I think it's meant to be a "The world is alive and things are happening the protagonists have no idea of." But he tends leave it hanging a tad too much. I still find it pretty enjoyable even so though.

>He is still pretty damn weak for an Irregular.
Because he is NEW.
If you pay attention to the story, these people don't have ordinary human lifespans. They have had time to get even more overpowered, if they weren't already overpowered when entering the tower.

4cuthero is the only good korean webtoon.

i like it

Needs more of Urek and the genderbent Khun girl

I like korean artists, but I fucking loathe korean manhua and webcomics.

>gookshit
do not support gookshit outside of gookland
t. gook

Yes. Every TOG thread I've seen on here gets nuked sooner or later.

korean webcomics are probably the number 1 argument for the genocide of mobile scum.

Meh
Cast is getting WAY too big,

stopped reading a long time ago, but from what I remember, it was a good battle shounen with a main character actually done properly.

No idea why people hate. Guess its just Sup Forums.

Porn webcomics are great though. Just better to read in bulk than weekly

now I know that you're full of shit

>Porn webcomics are great though.
like I said, all fucking phoneposters must fucking hang.

Neo-Sup Forums is a shithole.

Fuck off with your gookshit, gook shill.

I just hate the character names

Korean names are awful.
So are Chinese names for that matter.
Why is the Japanese language so superior to it's cousins in every respect?

>didn't get to see Mazino shit all over White

desuarchive.org/a/thread/158945037/#158945037

Fuck off spammer.

Japs can actually modulate their voice levels so they aren't fucking screaming at each other 24/7 like chinks do.

Fuck off back to batoto >>>/reddit/, gook shill.

>the arc is still not over so we can't see Mazino sperg all over female Khun princess

I want White to be a regular character, also, I feel like the black guy will fuse with White to get that extra oomph to get White to actual full power

egads, y'all get so triggered over a god damn manhwa, would it help if I linked to it's jap translated version? coz it's available on naver japan

webtoons.com/en/fantasy/tower-of-god/season-1-ep-1-1fheadons-floor/viewer?title_no=95&episode_no=2#language_code=JPN&team_version=0

Might as well just start posting Marvel comic here too.

It's typical inter-Asian fighting.

It's funny, I remember when a korean manhwa (aflamed inferno) was adopted by a japanese maga and "japanised", these weebs didn't say shit.

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aflame_Inferno


Nor did the weebs say anything when the Kdrama Winter Sonata was turned to an anime and actually aired on Jap tv with Kor voice and Jpn subs, fucking jap subs on jap tv!


Ever since ReLife got popular and got an anime, and Chinese companies started issuing their own anime on japanese networks, the distinction has been blurring.

Due to the common heritage adapting from one to another is absurdly easy and soon jap anime distros will be looking out for new stories, they are already getting full of LN and VNs, they *need* fresh material.

Fuck, no chapter next week.

Shove your gookshit up your gookass.

That's straight up bull. Baam has been in the tower for what, 10 years? He went from being the weakest thing ever to someone impossible to beat. He constantly get these power ups that only he can get. Yeah, not special snowflake.

He’s still a regular. The author is just a hack and is likely going to have him on the level of high rankers before they even reach the top.

Reminds me of SAO where the whole fucking shit ends on like floor 20 of a huge dungeon just because the author was retarded

I read Household Affairs and I can confirm this to be bullshit.

I really like Chinese manhua and Korean manhwa. Manhua can have better tragic plot without ruining everything at the end like manga. Manhwa can be really unpredictable and surprising. I remember a manhwa that it was like shonen-tier and in the end the mc didn't get the girl because she died and a lot of other important characters died, it was surprising but cool seeing how I didn't see that coming, good but sad end.

Also, I love how a lot of TOG characters are named after football players, I don't like football but it's fun, SIU a cute.

Boo at the family head.
Team floating ball and white, go!

Recently getting better again. At some point during Workshop it got stale and it's as if the whole Kaiser thing was a filler.

Still prefer DICE though

>as if the whole Kaiser thing was a filler.

It literally was a filler, SIU himself said it was mini-arc before the FOD arc, so we all knew what we were getting into.

Even a fucking mini-filler arc took like a year and a half to finish, very typical of SIU's terrible habit of dragging shit out.

All of it just so Baam could get another princess under his harem, this time a rejected princess.

I was furious about it, but I won't deny Kaiser had excellent legs above all else. God bless SIU for that.

>it was surprising but cool seeing how I didn't see that coming, good but sad end.
Just sounds like you don't actually consume a lot of asian media outside of Japan.
Japs already do a lot of tragic bittersweet endings compared to west and China and Korea go even deeper on it. To me there's nothing surprising when a lot of cast members die because that's what I expect from them.
It actually gets a bit repetitive at times, it's why i no longer watch as many Chinese crime movies as i used to.

Season 1 was really good, Season 2 started unusually, but. it went well, until a really fucking long ark started, then I kinda sorta stopped reading, then I picked it up year later and saw that THEY STILL WERE ON THE FUCKING (BOAT) TRAIN! So I'm thinking of catching up.

Shit after Part I.

Like all Korean stuff, was interesting at the start and turned to shit very very quickly.

Also the author has the most stupid fucking pen-name in existence and every time i see it written i feel embarrassed for him.

It's SIU's main flaw as a writer, he extends things beyond infinity against his own will.

Hell Train Arc was like 2 years, Kaiser's Arc which was supposed to be a mini-arc to chill out before the next major Arc was a year and a half long.

Floor of Death Arc has arguably been his fastest Arc since it's ending as of the current preview raws at 6 months. It'll be an extra month long for everyone else except the Korean preview readers.

Yea, I'm kinda considering doing a re-read since I haven't in years, but on the other hand I just don't want to read so much pointless drivel. Has there been any appreciable progress in the last year?

The Mary Sue MC is annoying, otherwise it's a good read.

>korean webtoon
>on Sup Forums
Wrong board.

In terms of romance or plot?

If in terms of plot Baam's true parents have been revealed and his hidden history has been brought out, new context of the thorn has been presented, and for the FIRST time Baam has told Rachel that their ties have been cut and to not get in his way, or else.

In terms of romance it's been mainly focused on Androssi above all else since she's the only one that SIU gives that real role to. Especially in the most recent raws,

Doesn't sound so bad. Maybe I'll just find whatever chapter the train arc ends and go from there.

>In terms of romance it's been mainly focused on Androssi

No complaints there.

Yeah, Yeon actually got a sort got a short limelight moment at the end of Kaiser's arc, but it's been mainly the Androssi train chugging along.

I love the sheer scale of ToG, but the fights for me always ended up being slightly disappointing.
I would also enjoy to talk about it on Sup Forums, but this is getting nuked prematurely anyway so who cares?

The Train arc is pretty much an arc with other arcs in it. So It only feels long.

Fights are starting to remind me of Dragon Ball now. Just because or flying and streams of energy

It's always been like though, either you follow the close quarters fighting style by reinforcing your body and fight with a weapon or martial arts,

Or it's beam spam and colorful and abstract magic spells up the wazoo, if you're a snowflake irregular, a princess, or high ranker you can do both fighting styles.

Basically SIU split up dragon ball fighting (beam spam and martial arts) and weak people usually main one style. Strong people and snowflake characters do both.

Hang yourself for stopping this thread from quietly dying.

Any luck after this arc Rachel reveals Baam's full past? He is still a guy named after a birth-date and they came from an unknown place

>DICE
Trash taste.

>Muh Noblesse
Trash taste

I got turned off during the hell train arc when like multiple personality FUG Slayer dude was the main villain.

Like holy shit that arc was so ridiculously long

Can anybody spoil me on how hell train ends so I don't have to read it?

not anime or manga. reported.

I think it would've been better as a base for a video game.
I couldn't give less of a shit about the story or characters honestly.

Did the dice mc actually fug the former ugly dicer girl?

The MC started going out with the former Ugly Girl, but like everytime, X started shit again, fucking everyone royally, so they didn't progress much in their relationship aside sleeping in the same room

...

His pretty much become a sue, and its hard for me to care when he is so one note at this point. imo.

To many char and no proper world building that feeds back into the MC char growth that feels earned.

Shit is getting messy.

Unreadable because of the vomit inducing art.

>Yeon
Is she even still alive? I mean, she's definitely not dead for good, but have we actually seen what happened to her?

place your bets, at the end of this arc
1)no one gets the fragment/there never was a fragment
2)baam gets the fragment
3)rachel gets the fragment
4)someone else gets the fragment

This.

The artist has also somehow managed to get appreciably worse since the first season.

Yea, she's alive and awake.Though she needs to catch up now.

They get to the floor of death and then stuff happens

He stated in an interview that he wanted the story to be pretty harsh originally. If you look at S1, lots of character are shown, and sometimes die immediatly after. Lots of elimination, too.

The problem is the main cast,and SIU,the author, doesn't dare to kill them off it seems. Because of the fans.

Not so long ago, he killed 2 characters (spoiler : Prince and akraptor) and it felt cheap... Now, the current arc shows character that are way beyond the main cast in terms of power, but I hope he start to let go of some in the next arc.

SIU can draw girls, but it feels useless, since Baam doesn't do shit, and still is worrying about Rachel.

No progress in sight.

You forgot to mention there was no progress between him and Androssi.

And that he is not over Rachel at all.

In the last chapter, he literally told Androssi and Koon to make sure she wasn't hurt...

Technically, it hasn't ended yet. They made a stop at the floor of death, and we got new infos, and fight between strong characters.

Baam's always been like that, even to his enemies. I think the only time he's every stopped giving a hand out to them was White. Where he was so pissed on he decided save everyone because no one deserved to die for him.

We get to see Young Zahard soon. Could be interesting. Also, rankers aren't as strong as SIU hyped them up to be to be honest.

>Rachel did nothing wrong
Are you kidding me? Rachel is a piece of shit

Story wise ToG started really interesting. The characters were a lot of fun and they had interesting personalities. The games were a ton of fun too.

The only drawback was the art early on. But the art got really damn impressive later, with the drawback on story pacing, characters, and battles.

I still love reading the series, but it has gotten a lot less interesting, though its still fun.

I miss Rak though, his return was amazing, he needs more screen time.

I think they showed too much of Urek Mazino too early. He's pretty much the second strongest being in tower after Zahard himself (yeah, there are Phantominum and Enryu, but they disappeared so whatever). Even now, that Gustang dude appeared and is supposedly insanely strong, but we know in fact that Urek is much stronger so there is no much hype.
Even if White returns to his prime strength, we know that he wasn't even high ranker, just regular ranker, so Urek would be able to kill him like with a finger flick.
Introducing Urek so early was a mistake.

I'm hoping Urek is going to stay on the floor of death with Garam.

I stopped reading a bit after Koon and Baam met up again. There are just too many characters for me to give a shit about. Season 1 was pretty solid though.

two chapters away

I think his with blossom.

How many years until the train reaches its destination?

What will happen with this nigga? His main shtick is ability to see future, but if he gives his eyes back to De Sah he'll lose it.
I really like his autistic personality and would love him to stick around with Bam, but without clairvoyance he would be just another average fighter (although maybe we haven't seen full extent of his abilities).

He joined Baam's team in the last RAW. He can't be the best scout because of his eyes alone.

pretty decent series, even if the official translations are pretty crap at times.

i find it really autistic how Sup Forums mostly hates it simply because it wasn't originally made in 'GRORIOSU NIPPONU'

>he wasn't even high ranker
He was High Ranker.
