Synopsis

An evil sorcerer slays the king and takes over his body, kidnapping the princess and spiriting her away to the legendary Dragon Tower.

The Royal Guard is rebuffed in their attempt to rescue her, and to replace the wounded, a young farmhand named Yuva is called up into service. With only a pot lid for a shield and a strong back to carry supplies, Yuva joins the soldiers on the perilous quest to climb the tower and rescue the princess. But the Dragon Tower houses untold horrors...!

Preliminary (15/? eps)
Tower Dungeon is as basic a dark fantasy manga can get, yet it breathes such a refreshing take on the genre. I am by no means a fantasy connoisseur but this has quickly become one of my favorite.

The standout quality for me was easily the world building and art. The grand scale of the architecture mixed with the grizzly creatures gives a sense of unease that I felt goes so well with this story. Tsutomu Nihei is an amazingly talented artist and his art really added to emersion in the Manga.

The story and characters are super standard. It’s pretty much Shrek tbh. But that doesn’t ...
