Read Season 1

by Sosseres
7 years ago

Rating: 6.0 / 10.0

As others have stated the series starts out very strong. Interesting setting, unknown motivations and strong characterisation. Add on good action and a solid pacing, then you have a great series.

Then season 2 happens where things start getting explained and lose their allure. Characters keep getting added and split up to bog down the pacing. Then there are other things that are hard to pinpoint that just makes it a drag to get through. Still an above average work but not something to really recommend.

Magnificent at first, declining gradually...

by Renzonokuken

Rating: N/A

This is subjective me scored based on my experience reading.

Season 1 = Magnificent (10.0)

Season 2 = Meh (1.0)

(10+1.0)/2 = 5.5

After reading through the 2nd season, it just got worse. I think it'd better ended before falling apart.

I might change my opinion if it gets better...

Disappointing

by marionette23

Rating: 6.0 / 10.0

Started off very promising, but the main character, Bam, is the core weakness of the series. By the end of season 2, he gets power up upon power up, but no substantive character development. The author starts to hit you over the head with philosophical strawmen to justify his characters' behaviours and poorly-foreshadowed plot points justified through awkwardly placed flashbacks. The dialogue during fights also become increasingly melodramatic.

However, there are still some nice moments, and the art and fight scenes get better.

It sucks now

by wick29

Rating: 1.0 / 10.0

Only the first season was worth reading

The second season is like whirlwind of characters and arcs...the author endlessly tries to highlight other characters more and more which is confusing because after a while one cannot tell them apart. The main plot only progresses after 60-70 chapters.

Strixflash I couldn't agree more

by DaSauceBaws

Rating: 6.0 / 10.0

You nailed it - I have nothing to add but an agreement.
My biggest guess is that the author runned out of juice - not even a surprise since he's been keeping up pretty well before recent arcs. The biggest problem the author faces is that he has created too many important characters before they even appeared - now he doesn't know how to weave it all perfectly, thus the arcs drag like no other.

overrated trash

by crissio
1 year ago

Rating: 1.0 / 10.0

This webtoon is one of the most overrated series that I have ever read. Since people kept praising it decades ago I decided to give it a go, and turned out to be a big disappointment.

Premise seemed good at the beginning, you are just nobody whose background was shrouded in mystery and get plunged into the world of darkness without anything, you met someone who taught you about life, then said person had gone to climb a tower, and you proceed to follow that person.

When I was reading it the first time, I thought this series is one of those survival horror series where you were taken to this random place and you have to survive, else you will die and the plot will revolve around investigating the mystery of the place, and deep dive into the system you were forced to partake in. However, none of that happened at all. What I actually get, is a generic subpar shounen series that was initially masked as a more darker survival genre. The author used the mystery of the tower initially as a box of mystery/carrot dangling around in front of you as a reader to keep reading, however since the ascendancy of "rachel" character, the carrot turned from mystery of the tower, to confronting her instead. There's a lot of stuff we don't know, and about 200+ chapters in, the author doesn't even explain anything about the tower and kept putting new stuff and billion new characters I don't give a damn about, to add more confusions.

The lore doesn't seem believable to me as a reader, what is this place? a country? mega structure? is this the whole planet that shaped like tower? or just big building out of nowhere? how can it take YEARS to go from different floors? don't they have an elevator? why do they devise random games like rugby games for example? if the premise is to sus out the irregular, or strong players whose existence will bring about chaos to the status quo of the tower, wouldn't it make sense to have a plain fighting tournament instead of complicated nonsensical games like hide and seek for example. It really breaks the immersion once you as a reader, have to concentrate about how the rules being set up and how these characters have to follow/break the rules, instead of just focusing on the actual storyline.

Every tournament/games seemed to follow the same pattern: you have your set characters, and the author throwing in bunch of new characters out of nowhere, and there's always a "set up" to where your character trying to follow the rules, then finding out they are already being set up by the administrator / whoever set up the game in the first place. It is amusing to me, that almost every characters are still alive, despite the fact that literally the people in power want you and your party member dead and it reeks of plot armor to me. The same thing like the fact that this Rachel character that has been kept dangling around in front of me, still alive after all that ordeal. When you think the tournament is over, there's always a new "set up" / trap waiting to be unfold and it is really comical at this point. You can't have a simple tournament/game without any of that crap, it feels like the author is putting new trap in every games to the point that it devoid mystery anymore. There's a lot of conversation that have nothing to do with plot progression and rather talking about the rule of the games to the point that I got bored reading it and just want the plot to move on.

The main character is also unbelievably naive, and lack of character development even after all that backstabbing he went through. His attitude of trying to save everyone while putting everyone else in jeopardy is just repulsive to me. On top of that, he did manage to save everyone (so far as I read) because of plot armor. Too much side characters. Instead of focusing on his initial groups, the author kept adding a lot of characters even more than one piece for example Luffy has like 8-10 crews tops. In here you have more than that and they don't have any substantial background and just more body to be put in the story to overly complicate the plot without adding more subtance.

In summary, the first arc was decent, it follows the survival mystery genre, then it devolved into generic shounen trash. Not that I hate shounen, I do like shounen, but this series doesn't know how to make a good shounen series. It tries to be survival genre and shounen at the same time and it falls flat. I am dropping this series and so should you.

Not bad plot.

by GhostHarambe

Rating: N/A

First season was great, but the second season is not good. In the second season, Baam is getting worst after he was betrayed by his precious friend due to chase after her; at same time, Baam is getting stronger, yet he puts his friends in dangerous circumstances. I hope this series can pick up better progress to revolve around Baam's goals/desires, such as continue to climb up tower for himself, find what Hwa Ryun's motive, and catch up from season 1 characters such as Yu Han Sung and Lo Bo Bia Ren. I don't think I can continue to read this series, but I probably will try to pick it up again in the future.

I read season 1...

by jeffreymgibson

Rating: N/A

I thought I would give this story a try since everyone raves about how great it is. I read season 1. The main character is typical. The one thing that drives me nuts is how the story keeps imposing questions but so far hasn't given any answers. Also, the main characters obsession over lahel is really starting to get on my nerves. I think I would of enjoyed this manga more if I would of waited until it was completed before reading.

Went from really good to really bad

by cravelove

Rating: 1.0 / 10.0

This comic used to be really good. However, it became too ambitious for its own good and the author can't seem to flesh details out properly. Furthermore, he's really stingy on details and withholds too much and I'm talking about Baam and Rachel!

A long time ago, the plot between them should've been resolved. If it wasn't resolved, then why? But the author remains silent and refuses to dish a single detail. Instead, he ruins the plot completely by making Rachel a troll character, over actually telling us anything that could advance Baam's character. Instead, Baam remains a crazed stalker who stays forever the same. Same goes for Rachel 'cos she could've been a worthy and interesting opponent who actually advances Baam's background story (And vice versa for Baam to develop her). But SIU made us hate her with a vengeance so I don't think there's a chance she'll ever be accepted by the fans.

But wait! Rachel and Baam aren't the only problems. Because SIU refuses to use much narration, so he's forced to dedicate mountains of panels just to write out the damn dialogue. Not to mention, the plot gets really confusing due to the severe lack of details. If you also add in the fact SIU took 3 or more years just to develop Floor 2, only to whizz past multiple floors and not even bother to explain much, it's a real sinker. Throw in too, that he likes to use characters like Parakewl just to "reset" the plot or action, to whatever he wants and all the fun + joy in predicting the plot is gone.

Well apparently TOG runs in author's head and he knows all and expects us to know it all as well. Too bad readers are leaving by the droves.
