Couldn't Byul be Viole? If so, it would imply she knows what happened to Baam.

Doubtful, Viole's name in Korean literally means purple. Not sure why they'd translate it as Byul.

There are so many possibilities for Baam. He could be Prince Zahard, Phantominium, an artificial human made from shinsoo ect.

I think it might be possible to be an irregular from inside the tower. You'd just have to not get chosen and open the door yourself instead.

Pretty sure it's not a literal door. The one Baam went through just appeared on the ground afterall.

Is Baam really an irregular since it seems that he was expected/chosen? http://www.batoto.net/read/_/65492/tower-of-god_v1_ch76_by_the-company

Either he's a special irregular, or irregulars are those chosen by the tower itself rather than Headon.

Yeah, I can't imagine seeing something that huge from outside. Could be in space though, with everyone outside the tower in some sort of sci-fi setting. Honestly I don't think we're ever going to see outside the tower anyway, probably just a bunch of vague comments from other irregulars about what it's like.

She beat the poo poo out of everyone during the Crown game, so that's kinda cool I guess. I don't think she's technically a regular though, so it's not too surprising.

Phantiminium is an exis, who are basically gods in the larger setting. So he probably could get someone out of the Tower.

Nah, the purpose of the Wing Tree organization is find the way out of the tower. They just conflict sometimes with Zahard because they have some different opinions on how the tower should be run. Essentially different political parties.

Some of the members do view it as a anti-Zahard organization, but Urek and Baek Ryun(current leader and co-founder with Urek) certainly don't.

He has insane shinsoo resistance, but he's still just a regular. Yes, he'll be a monster when he reaches the top of the tower but for now he's still not a match for any decent ranker, let alone one of the strongest in the tower. Notice how even Love was able to outmatch him, despite being taken by surprise multiple times.

I noticed something, the rules don't say being shot by a black bullet disqualifies you. So maybe your still in the game even if you do get shot by said bullet?

Huh, you're right. I wonder if the guns are real guns or not though.

Has anyone translated the information about the Slayers he mentions at the end of last week's comic?

Also Le Ro! But why would he even need to sneak around? Is there someone there who could handle a Ranker?

There are plenty of Rankers on the ship, including one High Ranker we've seen. Also unless you're an instructor, Rankers aren't allowed to be in the testing areas of the floors.

He's actually a scout, apparently.

As people get stronger and stronger the line between positions blurs quite a bit. Most Rankers can be fill most positions fine, they just have a primary(sometimes more than one) position that they tend to fill. Hachuling is a Scout/Lightbearer iirc, like the FUG one that was on Koon's team. Another example is Ran who is a Fisherman/Spearbearer.

EDIT: Looks like I'm wrong about Hachuling, he's just a Scout who can hack into Lighthouses.

I'm interested in seeing Koon ruin FUG's day.

Regarding Rak changing size, I think it's done to him, not by him, and probably as a limiter since he's so great.

I dunno about this, I think he is just able to change at will now because that was done to him on floor 2.

This is one of those series that seems like it will probably never end. The scale of the plot is just so massive. I don't know if they've stated it outright, but it also seems like people in the world of Tower of God live at least hundreds of years or are immortal or something. They've talked about decades as being a short amount of time to travel up X floors.

Are there any other Korean web-comics that are as good as this and Magician?

Seems like the heads of each Family and Zahard are the only truly immortal people, but the normal lifespan of a person who has mastered shinsoo is absurdly long anyway(tens of thousands of years) so it doesn't make much of a difference. The only exceptions are Hendo Lok Blodmadder's(one of the 10 heads) descendants since he made a deal with a guardian to gain immortality, and that made his descendants have short lives(~100 years).

I feel like Novick is just plain against the whole turning Baam into an emotionless monster thing.

Like, I think he wants Baam to become the slayer that FUG needs, but would rather whoever becomes the slayer do so because they also dislike Zahard's way of doing things. Not because they were manipulated.

Are you mistaking Novick for the high ranker who trained Baam? Novick is one of Koon's teammates that was forced into becoming part of the team.

That's The Company, the one that's doing it now. They're normally really good with translations(barring some light use of internet speak like OMG or WTF) so it was weird for them to mistranslate that.
