![]() ![]() They are perhaps unsurprisingly called the “Month Series” and it is from another of these swords, Anaak’s, that the episode takes its title. Bam’s sword, the Black March, still on loan from Yuri, is part of a series of such. This brings us to the other big revelation of this episode. We still don’t quite know how someone becomes one of those, but we can make an educated guess that fighting is involved. We also find out this episode that she’s another Princess of Jahad. Anaak herself is cute as a button but stomps a good chunk of the challengers without even leaving the throne. The two teams are both pretty cool, and seeing them fight is a blast. Some characters get more fleshed out than others, we’ll say. Serena and….I don’t remember if the guy on the right actually gets a name. Serena’s team, consisting of herself, a boy with a horn, and a chronically-sleeping wizard, is pretty interesting in its own right. One of the teams they fight is another B-team who get fleshed out a bit here. Continuing on from last time, she has to defend the crown and throne from all comers. ![]() The lizard-girl Anaak’s team take center stage in the episode’s first half. The vast majority of this episode is essentially a single long fight scene broken up with some character comedy and exposition. ![]() The actual meat of the episode isn’t this lingering mystery for later on, though. Bam himself seems to disregard the idea that it’s Rachel pretty quickly when she doesn’t respond to him calling her name. I expect that’s a mystery that’ll be solved slowly over time in the coming weeks. She’s currently palling around with a hulking creature totally concealed by its own cloak and a girl who seems to be pretty dead-set on murdering everyone she meets. RELATED: KAGUYA-SAMA: LOVE IS WAR! Recap (S02E02)īam saw this cloaked girl at last episode’s end, but it was left ambiguous as to if it was actually her or not. This team includes someone who looks an awful lot like Rachel. In last week’s episode, we were introduced to a team quickly climbing the tower after killing literally all of their competitors in their version of the battle royale game from the first two episodes. Let’s get to that mystery first, since it’s what I imagine will dominate discussion of this episode. All and all, it’s probably the best episode of the series so far. All this while adding intriguing little bits and pieces to the worldbuilding. It’s also the first to flesh out some of the supporting cast, and it drops a pretty big mystery on us. This is the first episode to focus entirely on a single test. Tower of God‘s fourth episode marks something of a minor turning point for the series.
