Overview

Tower of God (ToG) is written by Slave.In.Utero (SIU) and takes place in a universe called Talse Uzer. Currently, it is the only comic taking part in that universe. However, prequels, sequels, stories that run parallel to the main storyline and alternate timelines are all possible within the Talse Uzer universe. The story takes place within the 'Tower' an immense structure or enclosed space, divided into different regions as well as over one hundred Floors each of which is immense in scale to the point where picturing the scale of the Tower becomes almost impossible.

Those who have been chosen to scale the Inner Tower are known as Regulars and occasionally someone who is not chosen will enter the Tower; they are known as Irregulars. The Regulars and Irregulars attempt to scale the Tower, passing various Tests in order to reach the top and become Rankers. Floors become more dangerous as they go up, populated with strange creatures, Guardians and the mysterious force known as shinsu.

Tower of God - Overview

Baam faces off against a White Steel Eel

Within Tower of God, the author SIU has demonstrated a willingness to pursue often dark or negative emotional elements in order to convey a richer, more involving story - which, while alleviated by humorous characters or events and sometimes told tongue in cheek, often delves into a subtle, sombre examination of many of the different motives of those involved. The result is a more sophisticated experience than delivered by most Shōnen, more towards a matured and serious tone found in many Seinen or Josei works (for those aware of the Japanese counterparts), combined with clever twists and manipulations within the storyline itself.

Tower of God features competing themes, one of the key themes identified so far is the importance of trust and friendship, emphasising the importance of communal relations and achievements which competes against individual loyalties, sometimes conflicting or competing motivations and the understanding that not everyone will be able to move on, there are always going to be some who fail - that a 'happy ending' may well be unreachable.

And all these count as the finer aspects of Asian storytelling where there is often no good or bad. There is only grey morality and only the consequences of one's actions. There are no heroes or heroines in the stereotypical sense and only people seeking to fulfill their ambitions. Sometimes, the heroes or heroines will display traits considered villain-like or take certain actions which are considered 'good' by someone but some of the impact might directly or indirectly cause suffering, hurt, death or other kinds of negative consequences.

Tower of God availability, history, and related non-canon works

Tower of God is officially published in Korean on Naver.com every Sunday and in English on LINE on Mondays. Before the arrival of LINE, the scanlation project to convert this into English was done by The Company and was usually released several days later, depending on the amount of work involved in the release.

The comic itself was previously published in black and white before SIU was approached by Naver. According to SIU, these are the characters who appeared back then: Baam, Anak, Yuri, Evan, Khun, Rak, Ho, Hong Chunhwa and Sunwoo Nare.

SIU has also created some non-canon works related to Tower of God. Since they're not canon, any and all "new information" regarding Tower of God is likely for fun and shouldn't be taken seriously.

Below are the ones discovered so far:

• Tower of God School (English version available)
• Maple Story x Tower of God crossover (English version available, created for 9th Anniversary of Maplestory)
• (Raw) Rough English Transcript
