So against the recommendations of some cats innathread, I decided to go ahead and read the series because I like the premise. It has some okay parts but I dislike how cliche a lot of this is right off the bat (he's such a dangerous monster!), any reactions any time Bam does anything not-normal, typical betrayal plots and intrigue, etc. I have some questions though:

>Where exactly were Yuri & Friends traveling within in order to 'break into' the second floor?
>Is Evankhell a Tower Administrator, or just some crazy-strong Ranker/something else (as to why everyone is scared of it?)
>What exactly is a Tower Administrator? From my understanding, there is one per floor although they're passive and don't really get involved in Tower shenanigans, and they are xboxhuge 'I-don't-knows' that are leagues higher in power than even the strongest Rankers, if I have my terminology correct?
>From lurking threads in the past, I've gleaned that ToG is set in some fuckhuge 'world' with many Towers or some such. Is there somewhere that I can read more about this? Hopefully translated of course.
>Is a Thorn the same thing as a Needle and the translation changed midway, or something else entirely?


I can't think of any other questions off the top of my head but I'm sure I'll remember more later. Also christ almighty I cannot reading "FUG" without immediately going "FUGGGGGGG :-DDDDDDDDDDDD" in my head EVERY SINGLE TIME.

Some kind of stairwell area that's between the inner and outer towers.

>Is Evankhell a Tower Administrator, or just some crazy-strong Ranker/something else (as to why everyone is scared of it?)
>What exactly is a Tower Administrator?

Not sure what you're asking here. There are guardians, which are monster things that live on a floor each, and are ultimately in charge. Then there are administrators who are the rulers of a floor. They rule with agreement from the king, I think. I guess it's like the guardians are the god of each floor, and the administrators are the king. The guardians generally don't get involved.

>Is there somewhere that I can read more about this?

No, there's nothing else. It's stupid that he made that background up if you ask me.

>Is a Thorn the same thing as a Needle and the translation changed midway, or something else entirely?

A needle is just a kind of sword, I think. The thorn is the specific thing Bam's got.

Okay. I had thought that it was some area related to the types of towers but wasn't sure specifically. Thanks.

>Not sure what you're asking here
Well I'm unclear on what exactly an Admin is. So from my understanding, a Guardian is 'native' to the Tower and impossibly strong (like the thing that Bam made the agreement with for the game at the end of season one) and an Admin is just the strongest 'person' on that floor that is basically the Top Dog Supervisor sort of thing, right? Kinda wish we had more information about Guardians. Seems confusing.

>It's stupid that he made that background up if you ask me.
I agree if he plans to do nothing useful with it. Where did you guys learn about that?

>The thorn is the specific thing Bam's got.

Yeah, exactly.

>and an Admin is just the strongest 'person' on that floor that is basically the Top Dog Supervisor sort of thing, right?

Pretty much. They get permission from the King or another administrator to rule an area. Urek, for example, won control of a floor from another guy. Perhaps you can think of them as like governors. Their main job is to administer the tests.

The guardians don't seem to give a shit, because they're above that stuff. At the end of the day, the admin has no control over the guardian.

Maybe it's like, the admin control the people on a floor, but the guardians control the floor itself.

>Where did you guys learn about that?

He writes a lot of authors notes. A LOT.

Okay. That makes a lot more sense then. Thanks for explaining it to me. Would be kinda neat if during the start of a test on some future floor, a Guardian just interfered and did his own thing since nobody could stop it but then again that would ruin the entire personality of Guardians.

>He writes a lot of authors notes. A LOT.
Ah, interesting. Another related-ish question: Is that how you guys know that Jahed & Friends have never actually ascended to the top of the Tower? I've seen it mentioned in a previous thread but there was nothing in the comic that mentioned this. Makes me wonder how someone becomes a Ranker if nobody has actually gotten to the top of the Tower either.
>>
>>143795034
>Would be kinda neat if during the start of a test on some future floor, a Guardian just interfered and did his own thing since nobody could stop it but then again that would ruin the entire personality of Guardians.

It's possible with Bam. Guardians only seem to want to deal with irregulars. I guess that's why administrators are needed, to deal with regulars.

>Is that how you guys know that Jahed & Friends have never actually ascended to the top of the Tower? I've seen it mentioned in a previous thread but there was nothing in the comic that mentioned this.

Yeah. It's not great writing how not that much is explained in the actual series.

As far rankers go, somebody is ranked once they reach the top floor that Jahad has gotten to, which is 134 or 135, something like that. I forget exactly.

Beyond that point it's just guardians, so only irregulars go any further. The guardian of the next floor is particularly hostile, apparently.
>>
>>143795320
With the pace of the series, since they will most likely want to explore the floors beyond Jahad, it will take like 8 years at least
>>
>>143795401
>since they will most likely want to explore the floors beyond Jahad

It won't be satisfying if they don't, really. Bam's whole storyline seems intended for him to get to the actual top.
>>
>>143795320
>Beyond that point it's just guardians
Intriguing to know. Was this revealed during author's notes?

>The guardian of the next floor is particularly hostile, apparently
The Floor of Death, right?

Are there any other major bits of information I should know from author's notes?
>>
I have a friend that has been telling me to read it for years and I still haven't lol

I read the first 5 chapters once a long time ago and completely forgot about it.
>>
>>143795519
>Was this revealed during author's notes?

I think so.

>The Floor of Death, right?

No, that's the 43rd floor. Enryu, ranker #2, killed the guardian of that floor, so now it's a lawless, Mad Max kind of place, which is why it's the floor of death.

>Are there any other major bits of information I should know from author's notes?

There is a shitload of stuff he's talked about, but it's hard to know which parts SIU intends to make relevant, and which are just background.

He's said that the #1 ranker will never appear, but the #2 will. Some people speculate that #2 is Bam's Dad, in fact.
>>
>>143795793
>He's said that the #1 ranker will never appear, but the #2 will. Some people speculate that #2 is Bam's Dad, in fact
Huh. So Enryu could be Bam's dad, then? Would be cool to know what the other irregulars are doing or what happened to them. Do we know who the #1 Ranker is, anyway?

Also would be nice to find out more about Bam's past sometime ever. Seems like the place outside the Tower he was in was very similar to a prison-y confinement.
>>
>>143795892
>Do we know who the #1 Ranker is, anyway?

That's that guy Phantaminum. SIU has said that he's a reality warper on a godlike level, and he could destroy the tower in a second if he wanted to. So he wouldn't exactly be a good fit in the story.

I don't know all the details about the theory about Bam and Enryu. It's something like that Enryu had a kid with this princess called Garam, I think. She was the strongest princess, and went berserk and had to be sealed away. People speculate that she went berserk because her child was taken from her (since princesses aren't allowed to have children). Also that Enryu killing the guardian had something to do with this.

There's no real evidence for this, just circumstantial stuff (like Bam being sealed in the cave with Jahad's symbol on it) but it is interesting that Bam said he wanted to find out who he is right as they are heading to the floor that Enryu killed the guardian on, which might indicate that his identity is connected to Enryu in some way.
>>
>>143796107

Eesh. Wouldn't even want him in the series, personally.

Oh fuck me I never even noticed that.

>he wanted to find out who he is right as they are heading to the floor that Enryu killed the guardian on, which might indicate that his identity is connected to Enryu in some way
Ah yeah you've a point there. Welp, see you in however many years it takes to get to that Floor.

I guess I picked a good time to read the series since Bam has only just now grown a fucking backbone and self-personality. Thanks again for answering all of my questions.

Phantaminum is an "Axis". He has a very large area in which he can warp reality without limits. He is one of the strongest 5 such beings and one of the most powerful beings outside the tower. Urek is supposed to know him and chasing Phantaminum is why he entered the Tower. The power of an Axis is determined by how big their domain is. Anyone can become an "Axis" though it's rare. From what we know, people just spontaneously "awaken" and become godlike reality warpers. One of the theories as to what he purpose of the tower is, is that it's supposed to awaken people to become Axis Users. There's no real confirmation but it is called the Tower of God.

As for the Guardians, they are the original rulers of each floor. Their job is to administer tests to irregulars who manage to open the door to the tower and enter. The regular testing system is a product of contracts Zahard made with the Guardians. Beyond Zahards kingdom, regulars can't take any tests because they aren't even supposed to be climbing the tower in the first place. Only irregulars have the right to ask the Guardians for a test.
>>
>>143798043
Shame Bam never got that proper meeting with Urek.
>>
>>143798313
That was Urek's own fault for invading a floor.
>>
>>143796232
>>143798043
One thing I forgot to mention, Yuri has met Phantaminum. Phantaminum is known as "The Riddle" because the people of the Tower know very little about him. All they know is that he decided for seemingly no reason, to attack Zahard's royal palace. It's the only thing he ever did and then promptly disappeared. He killed some of the strongest High Rankers in the tower while doing so but spared Princess Yuri for whatever reason. She's the only one who knows what he actually looks like. Urek probably knows too.
>>
Is it true that each floor is the size of the american continent?
>>
>>143798382
Nah, that's just the outer tower. The middle and inner tower are much smaller.
>>
>>143794000
Evankhell is a crazy strong Ranker.
>>
>>143798382
Some of them are bigger. It's mostly the Outer tower that's so big though. There are a lot of people there who have never even heard of Zahard or Rankers and regulars.
>>
>>143798475
He's ranked 60 or some number close to it. He's the guy in charge of the Floor of Test usually, but he was busy with something and wasn't there when Baam was taking his test.

Posting on the wrong day.
We get our thread on Sunday night for the midnight release.
Although I don't know why /a/ has started flipping shit on this lately.
Is it because it's a web comic?
If I wanted to discuss Shin Angyo Onshi I would hope no /a/nons would say anything about it not being /a/ related because they would out themselves as a retard and a raging newfag.

It's been confirmed that's its been 1-2 anons(probably Japanese) for years now. No one else really gives a shit. If mods really cared they would of made a new board by now.

Not that hard.
>divide /co/ into /ca/ and /co/
>/co/ becomes all forms of comics
>/ca/ becomes cartoons and animation
Cartoons and comics are just too fucking broad of a media to be just one board. Cape shit threads are already treated differently than cartoon threads by mods.

I liked the untrustworthy arc more. The fight against Mule Love was a bit more believable. Urek is way too strong to be injured by Baam.
