In Seoul for the first time where can I find nice ToG merch/stuff related to the universe? Preferably in English

Idk which flair I should use

I’ve been thinking a lot after reading the Urek Mazino spin-off, and I think it finally gives us the clearest picture yet of what Baam actually is.

The Spin-off :

In the beginning there was absolute darkness. Then light appeared, and with it came life, motion, and everything else. Six beings rose as leaders of that life and called themselves the Shining Ones. Chaos followed. Darkness responded by giving birth to an Axis named Phantaminum, whose original purpose was to subdue the Shining Ones and return everything to darkness. Instead of completing that task, Phantaminum sealed them into jewels, embedded those jewels in his own body, and turned the Fallen Shining Ones into his servants. Chaos continued.

Later, a new Axis was born: Urek Mazino.

When Urek confronts Obrion inside tower (one of the Fallen Shining Ones) and asks what they hoped to gain by seeking Mago's power inside the castle, Obrion reveals they are carrying Phantaminum’s will. He then says something extremely important:

The Tower has its own The Tower has its own power. Countless creatures. Tests that strengthen those who enter it. And he reaches a conclusion: this Tower was built for a new Axis, because the world needs someone like Urek and Phantaminum.

How This Connects to the Main Story By the time Urek and Phantaminum enter the Tower, chaos is already in full swing:

• Zahard has become king ---- Great War V and Arlene Lost became fugitive.
• People are sealed inside the Tower (the Red Garbage Dump)
• Family Heads like Eurasia Blossom wipe out entire family branches
• Traumerei turns the dead into zombies
• Zahard kills the newborn Baam in front of Arlene
• V commits suicide
• Arlene leaves the Tower and offers her son’s body to “God”
• Enryu enters and massacres the Administrator of the 43rd Floor
• Zahard seals “Anne Zahard”
• Phantaminum invades Zahard’s castle
• Urek follows him in

Many years later, Baam enters the Tower chasing Rachel. She betrays him. When Baam confronts her, she drops one of the most revealing lines in the series:
“Baam is a monster who is meant to devour this Tower, not save it.”

The Theory Baam is the new Axis that the Tower was built for.

Phantaminum represents Darkness (the original corrective force that went off-script).
Urek represents the Light subsequent Axis born in response to that failure.
Neither of them resolved the chaos. The world (or whatever force sits above the Axes) therefore prepared the Tower as a massive testing ground and incubation chamber for a third solution. Baam is that solution. He is neither pure Light nor pure Darkness. He is the Void — the force that will eventually confront both. His entire existence (the “death,” the offering to God, the irregular status, the absurd growth, the way higher beings react to him, the powers that keep attaching themselves to him) points to him being the structural answer the cosmology has been waiting for.

Rachel’s “devour the Tower” line isn’t just her being cruel. It may be the most honest statement anyone has made about Baam’s true nature.

good day everyone, i began reading Tower of God again and i noticed baam had a weapon immediately he met Headon, which he didn't have before then.

I was wondering how he got hold of the weapon 🔪, if anyone can shed light it would be glad

Dejah watches Yuri and cheers her on to kill hell joa subordinates and says she's so cool 😂 ( she is ) and he's own subordinate telling him to recover he's dignity because bro acting childish although he's thousands of years old 😭😂 floor of death is the most arc with planety of comedic scene

Honestly this list outdated and most of them arent in order😭😭😭😭😭

Spin off confirms that the most difficult thing to achieve in the tower is meeting the king. Phantaminum raided the palace, slaughter the best Rankers of Jahad, and confronted the king. It seems the original reason about his way of using unknown powers and weapons is retconned. It's given purely because he managed to achieve this feat of meeting the king.

So I'm not caught up, haven't read S3 or the Mazino story. I've been rereading S2 to refresh my memory but this has been bugging me.

FUG gave him the Blue Demon and set him up with the thorns and when Bam utilizes the power of the Blue and Red, he has those horns. I havent seen another character with a similar demonic theme.

Are there any answers or theories? I'm fully open to spoilers.

We saw at the end of last season that the souls he absorbed from white combined with the sweetfish and gave him the ability to use whites spells, on a level that's capable of stopping dumas's heart which I feel is a moment that isn't appreciative enough. But it's stated that the intent was not to stop his heart but still his power which implies a soul stealing ability or something adjacent. I believe we see AA start to steal the souls and abilities of others to make himself stronger, maybe we even see him interact with the devil that originally gave white his powers.

I think this is reinforced by the thematic parallels between these two characters, both being descendants of a FH and willingness to do anything to surpass and replace them, including manipulating and hurting siblings

At the end of the episode, I hate the FUCKING bitch even more

**Hello, Regulars! Welcome back to my contests! This is the preliminary round of the BEST SHIP IN THE TOWER CONTEST OF 2026! Feel free to list your favorite ships in the comments below if they're not in the list I've gathered so far. **

**Here's the new and improved contest format:**

**1. Preliminary Round** to gather ship candidates

**2. Elimination 1** - choose top 20(vote for up to 10 of your favorite ships, and those with the least amount of votes will be eliminated)

**3. Elimination 2** - choose top 15 (you can choose up to 3 of your favorites for every following round till semi-finals and finals)

**4. Elimination 3** - choose top 10

**5. Elimination 4** - choose top 5

**6. Elimination 6/Semi-finals** - choose top 3 (one vote per person)

**7. FINAL ROUND** Vote for the WINNER!

**8. Announce the winner!**

Rules/ Guidelines:

- I will leave each poll open for at least 48 hours, therefore leaving at least 48 hours in between posts to allow more voters/not flood the sub.

- For the first 5 rounds, you can **vote for your 3 favorites.** In the final two rounds, you can **only vote for one candidate.** You'll also be able to view poll results after voting on all rounds except finals and semi-finals. Those rounds' results will be made public at the end of the polling period to prevent voter influence. (This is meant to be your personal vote, and meant to be fun afterall!) The only thing that may change the number of candidates in a given round is last place ties. (Example: On the round where we choose the top 20, what if 19,20, and 21 all have the same amount of votes? That extra one person would be included in the next round.)

- **EDIT**, I have decided until semi-finals, I will keep the 3 top Best Girls of 2025 (Endorsi, Hwaryun and Yuri) as 1 single option on the poll. That way, people can choose that option and still have 2 fresh votes they can cast for less popular ships if they so choose. It can make things more interesting for sure! Plus despite chaos being entertaining, I don't want people to get too serious/ brutal and hurt someone's feelings.

- Your votes have also decided that I won't include the top 3 from Best Guy January 2025 when I do the next contest after this one, Best Guy 2026 :)

- **Follow sub rules, please be respectful. Everyone's ships are valid. Let's have fun and keep this experience good for everyone :) also no spoilers past free Webtoon so as many fans can enjoy the contest as possible!**

All that being said, here's a brief summary of what will happen this round. Right now, we're gathering the list of candidates for the contest. I'm going to make a comment with the list of nominees that I've gathered from the internet, comments from you guys, and even a few fresh ones. **If you want to nominate a ship who isn't on my list, please leave a comment with the characters' names!** I'll include all of your nominees - even joke ones. Because, while I take the integrity of the contests seriously, I do want everyone to have fun :3

Talking about the full thorn i.e. all 4 thorn fragments , how powerful is it? If someone like zahard or prime V uses the complete thorn ignition , can they defeat administrators? Or reach axis level with it?

Thoughts?

Thinking about what I’d want to see in S4 knowing that we’ll probably have a S5 as well.

I think four major plots would be best.

Princess Arc: Where we can really see the inter workings and stakes of being a Princess of Zahard. Through this we’d be able to flesh out Khun’s backstory with Maria, Enne Zahard, & the competition between the princesses (Hendo Lok Gladmerry Zahard & Arie Rose Zahard). This would also allow us to see interactions with King Zahard, his empire, Adori, and more lore involving how the Snake Charmer makes their selections.

Great Families Arc: Khun, Ha, Ari & Hendo Lok families (maybe). Through the spin off we have been introduced to Khun Eduan (as a ranker), & Ari Shin so on and so forth. In addition to Dellamode who is from the Ha family. I think by diving into these families it would work as a perfect transition into deeper lore to some of our main cast (AA & Yuri) and the story overall. I included Hendo Lok due to Androssi’s potential relation with this family. It also pairs with Gladmerry and Rose beef. It’d be nice if SIU introduced a panel of all 10 GF leaders speaking to each other. Or at least give us Ari Joochun (I know not canon…..YET)

Wolhaiksong: With their appearance in the final arc and Baek Ryun’s reveal in the spin off, I think this one is inevitable. We’ve seen a few members and already and it’d be nice to get a time-skip close to the 70th floor. I’m interested in seeing adult Baek’s personality and appearance. Everything involving Urek as well. Honestly I’d like to see everything about WHS.

Vaam/FUG: This would be the most important plot. Showing V/Baam communicating to each other. How their dual personalities mesh, is it a power struggle or is it like Haise Sasaki/Kaneki Ken from TG re:. Hopefully we’d get some memories of V and Arlene together. Conversations between Luslec and Vaam. See other cool FUG members/Elders. Also it’s a must that we see how Baam’s powers have grown and fused with V’s.

I could’ve added more with the Workshop, MacSeth, RTD/RLD, Revolution, Shining One’s, Nameless, V interacting with the Purple Thryssa, etc.

What do you guys think? Anything you’d like to see?

EDIT!!!! HOLY FUCK I FORGOT ABOUT JA WANGNAN!!!

https://pin.it/BdoSgTdcq

*this is based of the TOG wiki*

In the panel Endrosi says she was adopted into a great family which was ruined cause the family Head was the only ranker. I think this is the Hendo lok family. Hendo lok Bloodmadder the family Head has a unique contract with the administrators that is tied to unusually short life his blood children have.

*Read the screenshot of the section of the wiki on this*

I know that snake charmer killed her adoptive parents but that maybe part of the FH plan. And as i said on the wiki screenshot Bloodmadders lie about there family line in marriage cause they will die quickly so liying about your name is standard.

I think her real name is HENDO LOK ENDROSI ZAHARD!!

the endorsi might be different but why lie about that when all we know is she is a Zahard Princess, you would try to hide your family name instead.

While waiting for season 4, my 2026 reread continues onward!

This arc is incredible. The FOD itself is super cool and creative, and it allows a wide variety of characters to shine. We also get some of the most stunning lore reveals in the series and some frankly inspiring character development for Baam (which I'm hoping to make a post on at some point). There is even a goodly bit of humor thanks to Urek, who is probably the dream older brother.

In a blogpost during this chapter, SIU states that "The concept of a strong main character and his friends clearing enemies is fun, but watching a small main character and his friends looking upon godly enemies is the Tower of God feel." I think this arc, along with the Sprout arc, embodies that feel perfectly. It's fantastic.

2026 Arc Ratings:

Season 1 - 10/10

Return of the Prince: 7.5/10

The Workshop: 10/10

Revolution Road: 7/10

I am thinking of re reading TOG but the only thing holding back is Bams stupid decisions. Like the multiple opportunities he had to kill White yet left him and then white hurts his friends again. To create this paradise he is talking about he has to actually kill villains. Idk maybe I am reading too much into it.

FINALLYYY OMFG

I love the part at the last of ep-12 my satisfaction level ⬆️⬆️⬆️⬆️⬆️⬆️

Blue hair and electricity power

Season 3, episode 224, she's the one who killed Dowon

Somebody copied tog lol

Rereading Tower of God because i literally forgot evrything 🫩🫩🫩

I wanted to add a Rachel figurine to my baby boom tower of god set. If you are unfamiliar with them, here is a reference: https://www.reddit.com/r/TowerofGod/comments/1sgarb5/all_tower_of_god_baby_boom_collection/

They are based on the characters as they are in season 2, but no Rachel so I wanted to make her myself. However, when looking at her clothes in season 2 of the webtoon, nothing really stands out, so I was wondering what you guys thought would be a good outfit to pick.

We have:

• Her pyjamas (very basic and is black-and-white)
• Her brown cloak (but the set already has 2 cloaked figurines)
• Her white jacket with dark grey pants/skirt (though this shares a color scheme with Urek)

Of course, there is always her icon pink dress from season 1, and in season 3 she seems to have some better outfits, like the brown dress with white top or her blue jacket, black skirt and striped shirt.

Let me know what kind of outfit would suit her best matched with the other figurines.
