On the lower floors, Shinsu is diffuse and inconspicuous, similar to air. Shinsu ( Hangul: 신수, RR: Shin-soo), roughly translated as "Divine Water", is a substance found within the Tower in varying concentrations on each floor. This fact drives much of the plot in Tower of God. Only Irregulars are exempt from the contract Jahad struck with the Tower Guardians that made him immortal. 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. Such people are called "Irregulars" in the manhwa, and Twenty-Fifth Bam is one of them.Īccording to the author, each floor is the size of the North American continent. On rare occasions, extraordinary people are able to open the doors and enter the Tower. The Tower is sealed from the vast, unknown "Outside" by portentous, impenetrable doors. Such people are referred to as "Chosen Regulars" in Tower of God. 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. A figure known as King Jahad (or 'Zahard', in some translations) is the chief leader of this body.Įach 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. At the top of the Tower sit the "Ten Great Families", which form the governing body of the Tower. Rankers are often put to work administering the lower floors. Former Regulars who reach the top of the Tower are known as Rankers, and are generally much more powerful than others. Regulars are any individuals from the Outer Tower chosen to climb the tower in the Inner Tower. This is because ascension from one floor to the next is only allowed by passing increasingly difficult tests of strength, dexterity and wit. Living on the top floors is associated with a higher status in the Tower and better living conditions. It is inhabited by many different intelligent species. It is permeated by an element called "Shinsu", which has strange properties similar to magic in other comic universes. "The Tower" is a mysterious structure that is completely enclosed and hosts many unique environments. When he enters the Tower, he meets allies that will help him up the tower. Now, he will go any distance to see Rachel again even if it means dying. Somehow, Bam manages to open the door to the Tower.

When Rachel enters the Tower, Bam is devastated. He has spent most of his life trapped beneath a vast and mysterious Tower, with only his close friend, Rachel, to keep him company. It is notable that in Korea 'Bam' can mean 'Night' or 'Chestnut'. Tower of God centers around a boy named Twenty-Fifth Bam. After Rachel disappears in a veil of light, Bam follows her, vowing to ascend the Tower in hopes of meeting her again.See also: List of Tower of God characters Setup Now, however, Rachel is set on climbing the Tower, and she is willing to leave Bam behind to do so. Twenty-Fifth Bam had been alone his whole life until he met Rachel. Crunchyroll will carry the Japanese broadcast version of the anime. It also premiered on Japanese television the same night at 12:30 a.m.
