Synopsis

Plot

Tower of God centers around a boy called Twenty-Fifth Bam, who has spent most of his life trapped beneath a vast and mysterious Tower, with only his close friend, Rachel, to keep him entertained. When Rachel enters the Tower, Bam manages to open the door. He is faced with tests that he takes in order to see Rachel again.

Settings

The Tower

In the manhwa, "The Tower" is a mysterious structure that is completely enclosed and hosts many unique environments. It is permeated by an element called "Shinsu", which has strange properties similar to magic in other comic universes. It is inhabited by many different intelligent species. Living on the top floors is associated with a higher status in the Tower and better living conditions. This is because ascension from one floor to the next is only allowed by passing increasingly difficult tests of strength, dexterity and wit. Regulars are any individuals from the Outer Tower chosen to climb the tower in the Inner Tower. Former Regulars who reach the top of the Tower are known as Rankers, and are generally much more powerful than others. Rankers are often put to work administering the lower floors. At the top of the Tower sit the "10 Great Families", which form the governing body of the Tower. A figure known as King Jahad is the chief leader of this body.

Each floor is composed of three layers: an external Outer Tower which serves as the residential area, an Inner Tower where people are tested, and a Middle Area, which acts as a network linking each floor. Residents of each floor are given the chance to ascend, provided that they are deemed "worthy" of doing so by Headon, the First Floor's Guardian and caretaker of the Tower. Such people are referred to as "Chosen Regulars" in Tower of God. The Tower is sealed from the vast, unknown "Outside" by portentous, impenetrable doors. On rare occasions, extraordinary people are able to open the doors and enter the Tower. Such people are called "Irregulars" in the manhwa, and protagonist Twenty-Fifth Bam is one of them.

According to the author, each floor is the size of the North American continent.[3] Each floor often has its own culture, language and governance systems, and it is not uncommon to have nations living in isolation and unaware of the existence of the tower.

Only Irregulars are exempt from the contract Jahad struck with the Tower Guardians that made him immortal. Thus, only an Irregular can kill Jahad. This fact drives much of the plot in Tower of God.

Shinsu

Shinsu (Hangul: 신수, RR: Shin-soo), roughly translated as "Divine Water", is a substance found within the Tower in varying concentrations on each floor. On the lower floors, Shinsu is diffuse and inconspicuous, similar to air. However, on higher floors, Shinsu increases in power and concentration, and is said to be viscous and flowing similarly to water. High Shinsu resistance is required to enter these floors. Residents in the tower must form a contract with the "administrator" of the respective floors in order to manipulate Shinsu. However, individual known as "Irregulars" seem to be an exception to this case, with one (Enryu) who even managed to kill a seemingly immortal administrator of a floor.

Shinsu can be manipulated to enhance physical abilities, powerful weapons, and even manipulate the elements. Bang (Korean-방) is the number of discrete units of Shinsu control. The more Bangs someone handle, the better the ability to control shinsu. The size of the units is called Myeon (Korean-면), and the concentration is called Soo (Korean-수). Though used with varying degrees of explicitness and even conscious awareness, its use seems to be inextricable from combat within the Tower. Shinsu reinforcement (Korean-신수강화-shinsooganghwa) is a technique used to strengthen the body, and is commonly used by Regulars. Those who are strong with Shinsu have their aging slowed to the point where they become effectively immortal. It is unclear to what extent aging is slowed simply by living in the tower without training to use Shinsu.

Shinsu does not have a fixed flow, but there is a temporary flow. Using this flow to attack is called flow control. Expert wave controllers could destroy a village with this. Reverse flow control is used to strike back in the direction of the flow and to stop the opponent. Sometimes they are used simultaneously, attacking with flow control and protecting the body with reverse flow control. Flow control is a favored technique of Twenty-Fifth Bam, the main character.

Positions

Most battles in the tower is done in teams. Each person in a team plays a certain role in battle, which are referred to as positions. There are five basic positions: fisherman (Korean-낚시꾼-nacssiggoon), spear-bearer (Korean-창지기-changjigi), light-bearer (Korean-등대지기-deungdaejigi), scout (Korean-탐색꾼-tamsecggoon), and wave-controller (Korean-파도잡이-padojabi). Fishermen are direct fighters, spear-bearers are a fighting support class, light-bearers provide distant reconnaissance, scouts provide on-ground reconnaissance, and wave-controllers control Shinsu. There are other positions, such as guide, but they are rare.

Development

Author S.I.U. majored in visual arts education on a university level before being conscripted into the South Korean military. By the advice of a senior in the army, S.I.U. started drawing cartoons. During this period, S.I.U. drew "ten books" worth of practice cartoons, which formed the backbone of the Tower of God comic he later started to create for the Internet.[4] S.I.U. already has major events and characters planned out, sometimes more than 8 years in advance, and often shares additional information on the Tower of God universe on his blogpost, after each chapter is published.

1"BALL"
April 1, 2020 (2020-04-01)[lower-alpha 1]
A girl named Rachel tells a boy named Bam to forget about her as she is climbing the tower to see the stars, disappearing into the gates. Bam suddenly finds himself within the first floor of the tower, with its caretaker Headon. Headon explains that all who wish to climb the tower must pass through a series of tests from each floor, with the first being to reach and break a ball behind a giant white steel-covered eel. Before he can enter the cage, however, a girl named Yuri and her companion Evan interrupts him, gifting him a Pocket holding information about the tower that can switch between visible and invisible, as well as allowing participants to understand the tower's language. Yuri also lends Bam a powerful sword known as Black March that can be dull or extremely sharp depending on the user, expressing curiosity in him despite knowing that her actions might incur the wrath of the higher-ups. Bam, deciphering the true nature of the test to be testing whether participants dare to embrace death, lets himself be eaten to cut it up from the inside. However, as Black March is unable to be wielded for him, Evan suggests he request its strength, allowing Bam to break the ball and be transported to the next floor. To retrieve her sword, Yuri goes after him. On the second floor, Bam is greeted by 399 other floor contestants, with the next test being a killing match to whittle the number down to 200.
2"3/400"
Transcription: "Yonhyaku-bun no San" (Japanese: 400分の３)		April 8, 2020 (2020-04-08)[lower-alpha 1]
Bam recalls how he was amnesiac and all alone in a dark cave until Rachel came and took care of him, including teaching him about the world and how to be literate. On the second floor, Bam encounters two other contestants Khun Aguero Agnis and Rak Wraithraiser. Both recognize the Black March due to a symbol on its hilt, which interests Khun greatly and makes Rak determined to hunt Bam down to become stronger. Khun forms an alliance with Bam, roping Rak in at the last second when the next test calls for teams of three to be formed between participants. On the mothership, test administrator, and Ranker (someone who has climbed the tower before) Lero Ro challenges them to withstand his water barrier, which is formed using the tower's power known as Shinsu. All but Bam, who remains standing due to his supposed good luck, are pushed back by the Shinsu. As Lero Ro leaves after the test, he warns Bam not to get too close to Khun. The victors are taken to another room for the third test. As the groups filter in, a mysterious blonde figure recognizes Khun.
3"The Correct Door"
Transcription: "Seikai no Tobira" (Japanese: 正解の扉)		April 15, 2020 (2020-04-15)
In the new venue, Khun explains to a wonderstruck Bam that the "sky" here is an imitation created by Shinsu modeled after the legend, which he doubts exists. They meet the director of the test, Hansung Yu, who challenges them to find the right door out of twelve identical ones within 10 minutes given only one chance, lest they be forcefully terminated. Although Khun tries to think, he is inadvertently haunted by his past of being betrayed by his half-sister Maria after she was chosen to become one of the elite girls, a Princess of Jahad, through his help, thereby exiling the Aguero family as well. His mother also warned him since then to never trust anyone and closed his heart off. As Khun panics, Rak pushes open a random door and Hansung reveals the hidden condition to pass was to open any door within 5 minutes. Lero Ro then administers a bonus test where participation is voluntary, but all who pass it would be automatically granted permission to climb the tower. The test involves five rounds where a maximum of five teams attempt to steal a crown and remain on the throne for as long as possible, with two other members of the team acting as a defense. As the second round begins, Bam feels Black March react strangely as a girl resembling Rachel arrives.
4"The Green April"
Transcription: "Midori no Shigatsu" (Japanese: 緑の四月)		April 22, 2020 (2020-04-22)
As the second round begins, Khun and a man from another team, Lauroe, deduce that the one sitting on the throne is always at a disadvantage as more and more teams fight for the crown. However, Khun declines to participate just yet as Anaak Jahad, a lizard-like girl, currently holds the crown, possessing immense power through her weapon Green April, which is part of a series of Ignition Weapon swords known as the 13 Month Series which includes Black March. This Series of swords is so powerful it is only bestowed upon the Princesses of Jahad, including Yuri and Anaak, who asks Bam to hand it over. Anaak makes a bet with Bam: if his team can win the game she will give him her sword, but if not he will give his to hers, and if he refuses to participate she will kill him and steal the sword after the game. As Lauroe's team fled back into their waiting room and Anaak's trespassed, they are disqualified from the game. Khun pulls a series of tricks using his cloning bag and earns the crown first with Bam on the throne. A mysterious and ruthless team prepares to enter the game, including Rachel, who agrees to kill everyone.
5"The Crown's Fate"
Transcription: "Okan no Yukue" (Japanese: 王冠の行方)		April 29, 2020 (2020-04-29)
Khun makes countless copies of the crown and releases three other participants that he had allied with during the second round from his bottomless bag. The next round proceeds with the mysterious team entering the game, proving to be extremely powerful. Bam recognizes Rachel and jumps to protect her when she is attacked by a female masked player, the two getting struck on the head in the process and falling to the floor. As Bam vows to protect her, a strange explosion of Shinsu erupts, making it appear as if Bam had turned into Shinsu itself and willingly attacked the player — something that goes against the unbiased and absolute rules of the tower. The crown game ends without a victor as the crown is melted from the extreme power release and Bam had left the throne during the game. Due to his serious head injury, Bam is admitted to the infirmary. Rachel later pays him a visit, where she meets Khun and begins to ask for a favour. Meanwhile, Lero Ro approaches Hansung questioning his reasons for having him administer this bonus round. Hansung cautions that as administrators, they are present to prevent anyone potentially dangerous from claiming the tower's power, with Bam hinted to be one such dangerous person.
6"Position Selection"
Transcription: "Pojishon wake" (Japanese: ポジション分け)		May 6, 2020 (2020-05-06)
Five days have passed since the crown game. Rachel requests that Khun lie to Bam that she was never here, to prevent both of them becoming each other's burdens, although Khun quickly sees that she doesn't really care about Bam and works to distance the both of them, fulfilling Rachel's request in the process. Anaak steals the Black March, but it refuses to listen to her. After Bam reawakens, Khun tells him about how Lero Ro assigned them all positions in their teams to start the fourth test: Fisherman (Close quarter combat), Spear Bearer (Attacking from distance), Lighthouse Bearer (Illuminating the tower and information gathering), Scout (observe the enemy's movement and assist the Fisherman), and Wave Controller (support and control the battle with Shinsu). Bam receives the Wave Controller position, a position that utilizes Shinsu to support team members, but is warned by the floor bearers that receiving contracts only shackles him. In order for Shinsu to be used above limits, contracts must be formed with the floor masters using their Pockets. Everyone works hard in order to pass in their classes. During mealtimes, Bam meets Endrosi Jahad, a Princess of Jahad in her own right who labels Anaak as an impostor. Khun later finds out that even though Anaak was supposedly made a Princess of Jahad after climbing the tower, she is currently in the midst of passing the tower's tests and records claim her to be deceased. As an enraged Anaak and Endrosi battle in their class, the current Anaak is revealed to be the real Princess's daughter whose parents were killed by the other Princesses, prompting her to enter the tower for revenge.
7"Lunch and Tag"
Transcription: "Gohan to Onigokko" (Japanese: ご飯と鬼ごっこ)		May 13, 2020 (2020-05-13)
Jahad is the first man to have ever climbed the tower, become the king of all who lives in it today. Endrosi likens the Princesses of Jahad to luxurious shoes in a display cabinet – once they are granted Jahad's power, they are forbidden to do certain things, such as engaging in intercourse and bearing children to prevent the inheritance of Jahad's power. Their fight ends with the two of them falling into a pit and ending up seriously injured. In the final placement test, participants that failed their classes (all but Rak and Ghost) are required to play a game of tag in a separate building while they split into Team A and B respectively, with each team's members required to help their own "it" steal the badge from the other team's "it" or reach the goal.
8"Khun's Strategy"
Transcription: "Kun no Sakuryaku" (Japanese: クンの策略)		May 20, 2020 (2020-05-20)
Khun's strategy: delay Quant long enough so that Anaak their secret "it" can make it out the bridge and pass the test. When Quant reaches the bridge, instead of Anaak he finds Khun. Khun lies to Quant that Anaak jumped off the bridge but in reality, she is safely floating on lighthouse under the bridge which Quant figures it out. Quant jumps down the bridge forcingly with Khun but Khun is saved by Anaak's vine rope. Down the bridge Quant surprisingly finds Khun and Lauroe who offers a ride up the bridge to steal Anaak's badge. It is later revealed Khun betrayed his own team so that his friends on Team B could pass the test. With team A losing the game, next team B enters. Team B fights among themselves that who will be their "it". Endorsi herself declares she will be "it". Serena's backstory is revealed in that she was a burglar and one night she watched as her friends were killed by a ranker. In the present time, Quant catches up Endorsi and her team as she much surprisingly seemingly turns against her team.
9"The One-Horned Ogre"
Transcription: "Katakaku no Oni" (Japanese: 片角の鬼)		May 27, 2020 (2020-05-27)
Endorsi reveals that she intends to kill the other two Fishermen on Team B to assure she passes the test. Bam runs to Rachel and he and Quant discover that Hoh is holding Rachel hostage at knifepoint. Hoh tells Bam that he will lose motivation to climb the tower if he kills her as he has uncovered by an anonymous letter, giving him leverage in passing the test. Rachel tries to break free from Hoh's hold and he accidentally stabs her in the back. Bam uses a ranker-level Shinsu technique to paralyse Hoh and recover Rachel, who is now bleeding. Hoh, realizing he was set up and grieving in how his entire race was murdered as he watched helplessly, takes the knife and stabs himself through the chest, killing himself. Serena and Endorsi arrive at the scene and Endorsi uses a weapon taken by one of the Fishermen she presumably killed to attack Quant. Along with Bam's help, Endorsi recovers Quant's badge and Team A wins. Hoh's corpse and Rachel are taken to emergency care and the episode ends with Bam at Rachel's bedside.
10"Beyond the Sadness"
Transcription: "Kanashimi no Saki ni" (Japanese: 悲しみの先に)		June 3, 2020 (2020-06-03)
Bam reveals to Kuhn and Rak that Rachel may never walk again after her injury. Bam invites his peers to a small funeral set up for Hoh and they have a remembrance party for him later that night. Knowing she won't pass the latest test and feels that her purpose isn't there, Serena leaves the inner tower and gives Shibisu her knife as a parting gift. Test director Hansung Yu runs into a secret call placed by Wave Controller teacher Yuga, who reveals himself to actually be Lo Po Bia Ren, a member of the Royal Enforcement Division who is on a mission to retrieve the 13 Month Series swords and possibly destroy the false princess, the second Anaak Jahad. Yu allows Ren to pursue his mission. The next morning, the participants learn of their test results and whether they passed or not. Hansung Yu announces that since she was injured in the last test, Rachel has failed. In an attempt to save her status, Kuhn asks for permission to take the administrator's test. Yu reminds him that only Irregulars have the power to consult with the administrator, in which Bam notifies him that he is one. This revelation surprises many of the participants. He is taken to the administrator in order to speak with him.
11"Underwater Hunt (Part 1)"
Transcription: "Sengyo kari（Zenpen）" (Japanese: 潜魚狩り（前編）)		June 10, 2020 (2020-06-10)
After consulting with the administrator, Bam succeeds in getting him to allow Rachel to participate in the next test. For the test, Bam and Rachel are placed into an underwater Shinsu ball along with fish and must be captured by net dolphins and eaten by their queen to pass. The remaining participants must stop the net dolphins' enemies: the goblins, who control marsh worms, and striped ground pigs, from interfering with the net dolphins. They must also watch out for the bull, a creature that eats almost anything that moves. In the caves, Shibisu runs into the bull after receiving a warning from Hatz that the two participants with him have gone missing. Shibisu is saved by Anaak and Endorsi, who arrive and compete against each other in which one will defeat the bull first. The bull runs off and all three of them become separated. Endorsi runs into the bull, which is now stronger and is left nearly unconscious. Anaak runs into Lo Po Bia Ren, who stabs her through the torso. Ren is now controlling the bull and it arrives at their area and drops Endorsi, who is ordered by Ren to kill the imposter princess. Meanwhile, Hatz, Rak, and Paracule are keeping an eye on the goblins. Khun instructs them to wait before moving in, but there are more of them than expected. As one of the goblins prepares to attack Hatz, Paracule reflexively skewers it with his spear, prompting the rest of the goblins to attack.
