On the official site for the anime adaptation of the
webtoon written and illustrated by SIU , “ Tower of God ,” a
new promotional video for the second season of the project was revealed. The
video confirms that the premiere is scheduled for July 7 in Japan ,
and shows a snippet of the opening theme titled “ RISE UP ”
and performed by NiziU .
It should be remembered that a previous
leak already confirmed that this second season will last two parts (i.e. six
semesters of broadcast). Although there is no
confirmation, it makes sense when considering that it will adapt the “ Prince's
Return Arc ” and the “ Factory Battle Arc ”, which
occur many years after the beginning of the story.
On the other hand, SIU has been
publishing the webtoon “ Tower of God ” through the Naver
Webtoon service since 2010. The work inspired a twelve-episode anime
adaptation produced by Telecom Animation Film studios, under
the direction of Takashi Sano and scripts written by Erika
Yoshida , released in April 2020. The original work has entered
multiple suspensions due to constant physical exhaustion of the author.
Sinopsis of Tower of God
There is a tower that summons chosen
people called “Regulars” with the promise of granting their deepest desires. Be
it wealth, fame, authority, or something beyond them all, it all awaits those
who reach the top. Bam is a boy who had only known a dark cave, a dirty cloth,
and an unattainable light his entire life. Then, when a girl named Rachel
approached him through the light, his entire world changed.
Becoming close friends with Rachel, he
learned from her a number of things about the outside world. But when Rachel
says he must leave him to climb the Tower, his world shatters around him.
Vowing to follow her no matter what the cost, he sets his sights on the Tower
and a miracle occurs. Thus begins the journey of Bam, a young boy who was not
chosen by the Tower, but opened its doors on his own. They call his kind the
“Irregulars,” beings who have shaken the foundations of the Tower every time
they set foot inside it.
