Synopsis

Faced with imminent defeat and certain death, would you choose to run—or continue to fight for a doomed world? When mysterious towers appear across the world, summoning monsters that prey on mankind, this is the choice presented to the Tower Walkers—adventurers with special powers to fight the monsters. On the brink of death, they can choose to use a "regression stone" to return to the past for a second chance, though this decision places them in a separate timeline forever. Stubborn Tower Walker Jaehwan rejects this choice, choosing to fight for the original timeline, and learning shocking secrets about the Tower along the way.

Preliminary (95/? eps)

Basically, this story revolves around the mc, Unfortunately, this story is not like other stories where the mc embarks on adventures with his friends or team members, gathers an elite party, or does other popular stuff (It's not like that mc don't have friends but not like other stories.) But the most distinguished point is that MC doesn't buy the temptation of time reversal/reincarnation/returner stuff. The world where he comes from the Earth has fallen after that he is on a journey long and hard on his way he's trying to save different worlds (saving people precious to him) at the same time nurturing his ...

Mixed Feelings

Preliminary (143/? eps)

To start off, the first 50 chapters for me were a solid 8. The start was quite something giving you a ton of information with very interesting world building, it is a bit much but really fine and from there on out it looks really promising

Chapter 50~100 aprox is the real first arc, for me it is 9.5/10, absolute astonishing fights, very interesting power system, really good side characters and really superb villains. From here on out the story starts getting intense and serious, reading that arc made me fall in love with the manhwa, as it looks to close on some questions contiuning the ...

Preliminary (55/? eps)

Okay, the TLDR is do not read this Manhwa if you value your time. It is quite literally, all over the place in terms of story and plot. I was recommended this after reading a different Manhwa called Omniscient Readers Viewpoint claiming that both stories took place in the same world. Clarification, 55 chapters in and they are NOT. That doesn’t ruin the score I just figured people should know. But let’s get into a breakdown to better clarify my thoughts. Spoilers ahead!

Story 1/10
You’re going to hear me say this a lot, but the premise of this whole manhwa starts out pretty interesting. The ... idea of towers sprouting up around the world that need to be beaten RPG style was a cool premise that had a lot of potential. If the entire story took place inside the tower and explored the worldbuilding, consequences, and characters inside I think the score would be a lot higher. Instead, we get a brief introduction to our characters “trauma” which lasts maybe 1 chapter and then he breaks “out” of the tower into basically a fantasy world. And since he technically cleared the tower and faced an unbeatable foe, he is just super OP. This takes place like 5 chapters in or so, and after that the story just focuses on this new world and is a mid-tier world building that gets retconned every 10 chapters or so.

Characters 3/10
What can I say, 1-dimensional and bloated cast. It’s a real shame, again I feel like if they just spent even a fraction of a second exploring the main characters literally MILLIONS of years of trauma in the tower it would be more interesting. And we kind of get a glimpse of that when he faces the 99th floor boss and even less of a taste when he interacts with the female heroine, after realizing she too is human. HOWEVER, THEY LITERALLY JUST WRITE HER OUT OF THE STORY. The best character and arguably the perfect foil to our MC’s stoic, broody nature, and she just POOF, disappears after she is cured of ghoulism. She is instead replaced with an old man who kind of serves as comic relief. Then they start adding other characters who I can literally only describe by their powers. Fire-Guy, water-guy, smart-guy, lighting-guy, ect. And out of ALL these characters lighting-guy is like the only one to have a “backstory” if you can even call it that.

Worldbuilding 4/10
I’m going to skip the parts I touched on in the Story section about the tower and just focus on the world of “Chaos”. This Iseki land is, at first, meant to be the afterlife. Souls come here to live for eternity. They set a bunch of rules in place about how higher beings can’t interact with Chaos, but they retcon this pretty quickly. They also add a place called the “abyss” which holds some life fruit that can return someone to life and that is the ONLY goal of our MC for no reason. The sort of personal reality of “ascenders” or whatever the MC and old man are, is kind of interesting. Seeing the world through your own eyes but it only serves to make our MC look more badass.

Art 8/10
Good art, good on some scenes, wasted on others. In the typical Manhwa art style so nothing to write home about.

Power System 4/10
The power system starts off as an RPG style, video game thing. Characters get XP from killing tower monsters and level up skills and all that. It’s not really explained in depth and is instead exchanged for “Adapters” and “Ascenders” which are basically people who exceed the limits of the RPG leveling system supposedly. However, after clearing the tower you never see this system again and all power relies on basically “magic” or practicing 1 thing for like a million years. Lazy and forgettable.

Alright rant session over if you read this far thanks and good luck. Just don’t want to see anyone waste their time. I mean it’s not the worst thing I’ve ever read so if you have time to waste give it a shot otherwise go read literally anything else!
