| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- Lol, we got some turtle jokes but Bam still really needs to prove himself. Aguero is such a badass for toying with Rak. It looks like Bam's goal to find Rachel is realized ever since he met her. Anak Jahad also makes her appearance and she's no pushover. Lol Sibisu got abandoned. But seriously, I think Bam definitely needs a strong ally if he hopes to survive. The Tower of God Admin is also someone to watch out for. |

| This episode was certainly better than the first episode. I totally felt weird watching the first episode, but in the end I'm getting used to it, or more like now I'm totally liking this animation. A solid 8/10 for this episode |
 |
| i didn't remember finding bam so annoying while reading the webtoon. Fortunately, it was a better episode than the first one. 6,5/10 so far |

| Another decent episode. Better than the first one. But my main issue is that so far it is pretty much a copy of hunter x hunter. I am sure that eventually it will become its own thing but the entire episode I was thinking "that's like what HxH did, but not as good". On its own merits however, without comparisons to other anime, I really liked it. This show has a lot of potential. |
 |
| Definitely stronger than the 1st episode. pacing also well put together. The animation was more presented here as we saw some battles. We also get more info about the lore and setting. TOG anime seems to be heading at the right direction! can't wait for more. |
| That hatz vs anaak was LIT, i'm hyped for anaak and hatz to kick some ass in next episode. And i think the pace is better than the previous episode. Personally I really liked this adaptation so far, tower of god anime with good art, good animation and good ost with decent pace is all i need. |
 |
| So far I'm liking it but it's hard to say yet how I feel without getting a complete idea about it. |
 |
| Better than last week, though last week set the scene, so cannot just be looked down upon. I love the team chemistry. I hope it either stays, or continues for a length of time. |
| Pretty good episode. Anak vs Hatz fight was good. They would make a great duo. Shibisu was funny. Rak was also pretty funny. |
 |
| Anyone recognize who's voicing Yu Hansung (the blond guy before the credit)? |
| New characters are really interesting like the test, I can't wait for the next episode I hope the anime will be full of test |
 |
| so like there was that I believe |
 |
| Nice Comedy , and we got to see some new characters, looking forward to see them more |
 yikes |
| Way better then the first episode!!! |
| they actually managed to make an episode worst than last week's, that's a surprise. The only saving grace for this episode was the "fights" (the little we got) and the scenery, bland as it was. That 1970's style room didn't help at all and it just felt as though they were trying to make this series look bizarre just for the sake of looking bizarre. "your ability to climb this tower is down to luck" this killed the entire series for me. relying on luck to tell a story is actual garbage, because now instead of getting good to climb it, it's obvious that annoying MC kid will just get lucky and barely pass every single test, looking like an underdog when he's just "lucky". Also the comedy in this episode fell flat on it's face. They ridiculed the one OP character for some quick laughs, and made him look stupid all throughout the episode, making him into a good guy over some snacks? really? Also that jumpsuit kid is the most annoying character in this series, i physically cringe whenever he's on screen. So far the only interesting character is probably Yuri, but they'll find a way to mess her up too. |
 |
| Decent so far. Seems like it is finally getting exciting. |
| Humu, this episode was better than the first. 3/5 |
| "Life is too bitter, so coffee, at least should be sweet..." - Hikigaya Hachiman (Yahari Ore no Seishun Love Come wa Machigatte Iru) |
| Many of the other characters made their first anime appearance and the fight scene was well done. Also XD Rak the GOAT. |

This episode is definitely way better than the first. Explains a lot of things that were missing from the first. I personally got more questions than answers. "Who is this adidas kid and when do they kill him off?" "Wow is Yuri actually a good character? When do we see more of her?" "Why would you rely on luck to climb the tower that's stupid?" "How the hell is MC kid not dead yet?" and many more. only question i got the answer to was "what are irregulars?". |
|
| Great episode. Pacing felt more natural than the first one, and the shinsoo looked really well animated during Lero Ro's test. Very enjoyable and nice to see the trio together. Nice to also see some exposition on who irregulars were exactly, just to make it more understandable for anime-onlys on whats going on. Turtle jokes are already here too, I'm gonna just sit back and let the webtoon community make 100s of turtle jokes for this next week of waiting for episode 3. |
| I dont remenber why 68 people instantly died....feels soo freaking weird, the pacing is too fast. Rak is still best boy. |
| Easily AOTY contender if this keeps up I want Yuri to abuse me so bad Animation was top notch this episode and you’d expect nothing less considering the staff they have working on it. I expect it to be consistent in fights throughout Bam is so cute lol “I can go back if you want” what a good kid. It’s been a while since I’ve seen an episode of an anime that I didn’t want to end. Wish it was a double length ep Can’t wait for next week, love everything about this |
 |
| This episode was much better than the first. Khun is more intelligent than violent. I like those kinds of characters. The alligator reminded me of Caiman. He was oddly cute despite being a monster, and his voice was also similar to Caiman. I had read a little bit of the first chapter of this in Webtoon app, and I was surprised by the difference in the drawing style. Especially with Bam and Khun. They're so handsome here, but they look so odd in the webcomic. The one girl who slammed her face on the wall of water was funny. One guy was asleep, and he still managed to not just survive, but also reach another level. Hope we learn more about him later. When I heard the Ranker's voice, I half expected the Alpaca from Nakanohito Genome. lol. But he was kind of attractive. Also, I thought he'd be really cold, but he was kind of nice. Khun's bag seems to have a secret hidden in it. Hope they don't make us wait too long to learn it. |
Kami_sama_ said: I'm going to get a lot of hate for this. But I think this adaptation is doing the source material better than the Webtoon. Seeing as the Webtoon didn't have the greatest art, (I am not referring to post-Season 1, since the art becomes god-like) and this anime has not only consistent art but great animation and a godly soundtrack. I think so far, it's on par. Visuals wise, massive improvement (I love the visuals in the show so far) and the soundtrack has been great so far. Pacing wise, the first episode definitely had issues but I liked the pacing this one. I think it does have the potential to surpass it in the coming weeks, just keep the pacing like it is now, and keep key explanations whilst adapting it and this season should be looking good imo. |
otilia84p said: Feels like there's a lot of shills in this thread. So many template comments in this style: "this episode is so much better than the first one". Who are you trying to convince exactly. No one, it was better. What are you trying to prove? i mean, is this show AOTY material? not realy, but its not a bad show....Its funny seeing a random ass account like yours thats clearly a fake meant to troll away at the forums here, do you have nothing better to do? |
| I enjoyed this one more than the first(heh template comment huh /s) A bit simpler but also easier to digest. The scene where yuri just popped up last episode was jarring. The chat about irregulars and the tower gave a nice perspective on where we actually are lol. The fight seen looked pretty good but also just a short snippet so let's see if they can make it consistent throughout the season. |
 "... Because when you live in this world of my closed eyes... ... Being alone is very lonely...". |
| This episode was more like Hunter x Hunter than Sword art Online, still no idea where we are going. |
phantomfandom said: yeah ikr? Imo Hatz and khun is damn hot, no homo.I'm more interested in male characters than the story. I mean, most male characters are hot, even the alligator is reptile hot! Now just add BL element to instantly improve the story! |
|
| Improvement over first episode! Pretty interesting so far. |
| Bam being the only one that didn't get pushed back by the Shinsu, plus Leroro saying he's a monster makes me excited for what we'll see from Bam once he gets stronger and becomes a better fighter. I liked most of the other new characters that were introduced in this episode and look forward to seeing them in action later on as well (particularly Hatz and Anak). |
| People on MAL refuse to actually enjoy watching anime. Your taste in anime isn't a personality trait. MAL is literally just anime Twitter as its own website lol. |
| Episode 2 > Episode 1 Hanai > Sano confirmed that being said I seriously hope it's just the material, not the episode director.... I shudder to think if the latter is the case |
| well the first episode was definitely a bit generic, but i think its definitely redeemed a bit of that with this one... im far more interested now |

Either you're reading comprehension is severely lacking or you didn't pay attention to the episode. So let me remind some of Lero Ro's lines : - "The luck to be born with exceptional brains or brawn" - "The luck to be blessed with wealth or good friends" What is it that you don't understand from these two lines? It obviously implies you need to either have a great intellect, be extremely strong, have connections, be rich or any kind of advantage. The Test Administrator even added that no matter how much effort you put into it it doesn't matter. "You simply were not chosen. That's all". It basically tells you "This is life, deal with it.". Get it, now? |
