What to expect from the Tower of God Workshop Battle arc?

Prior to the anime’s adaptation of the Tower of God Workshop Battle arc, there are still some events that need to be set up. These plot advancements will essentially see Khun and Bam switch teams as a result of the events unfolding at the Hand of Arlen in the anime currently. This will eventually lead to Khun confirming that Bam is alive as Jyu Viole Grace. However, this truth is withheld from Shibisu’s team in the original manhwa, despite their being Bam’s old friends.

All three groups will then be invited to the Workshop Battle on the 30th floor, where they become even more separated due to various events. This leads into the One Shot, One Opportunity event, which sees all of the would-be Workshop Battle participants forced to fight for entry into the Archimedes, and the battle itself resultantly.

Thankfully, almost everyone on Viole, Khun Aguero Agnes, and Shibisu’s original teams makes it to the workshop battle, setting up the tournament to begin shortly thereafter.
