Tower of God finally sets a date for its return

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 fragment of the opening theme titled "RISE UP" and performed by NiziU.

It should be remembered that a previous leak already assured that this second season will last two parts (that is, six semesters of broadcasting). Although there is no confirmation, it makes sense when considering that the "Prince Return Arc" and the "Battle of the Factory Arc", which occur many years after the start of the story, will be adapted.

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.

Synopsis of Tower of God

There is a tower that summons chosen people called "Regulars" with the promise of granting their deepest wishes. Whether it's wealth, fame, authority, or something that surpasses them all, everything awaits those who make it to the top. Bam is a boy who had only known a dark cave, a dirty cloth and an unattainable light for his entire life. Then, when a girl named Rachel approached him through the light, his entire world changed.

By becoming close friends with Rachel, he learned several things about the outside world from her. But when Rachel says she must leave him to climb the Tower, her world shatters around her. Vowing to follow her no matter what it takes, he fixes his eyes on the tower and a miracle happens. Thus begins the journey of Bam, a young man who was not chosen by the Tower, but opened its doors for himself. They call their species "Irregulars", beings that have shaken the foundations of the Tower every time they set foot inside it.
