And the first webtoon to get a proper tv anime adaption is Tower of god.

Some anime make it absolutely clear that they are not for kids.

This anime falls into that category. 

The story begins in a dark, unconventional district, where the concept of morality is almost non-existent. There is the idea of ‘survival of the fittest’ as well as some really horrific elements in this anime. 

Yet it has just enough comedic relief to balance things up.

Indeed, this anime is a job well done.

The characters are genuinely likable, and both the art style as well as the animation is glorious.
