Tower of god opening is from Stray Kids. It’s their song Top. And the after credit song is their song slump.

[@anabelroutledge]

Top has also been topping the charts in Japan since it was released and just hit 170 weeks straight. Slump might not get as much love but Han (even if the reason he wrote it was so sad) did an amazing job on it

[@lunerlilly]

Wait what!? That's so cool! 😊

[@lunerlilly]

​@@anabelroutledgewhy did he write it? 😢😮

[@anabelroutledge]

@@lunerlilly He was struggling with his anxiety and was debating quiting as he felt like he was dragging the other members down because of his issues. He lost sight of his passion for music for a bit and was struggling with expectations. He was in a slump, a low point, but ultimately recovered and renewed his passion. The song doesn't have a conclusion because you are the one that decides how to continue. You get left behind and forgotten or you find your way back to the top

[@lunerlilly]

@@anabelroutledge Firstly thank you for the response and explanation. 😊 But oh my lord thar is terrible! As an artist though I can relate to that sort of feeling. I'm really glad he got his love and passion back. I think I've heard about his anxiety. I'm really happy how much a family their group is. I'm sure they did their best to show him love and care. 😔 😊

[@Tristana.Keauna]

love whenever SKZ remix their own tracks. It's pretty common for them, especially at awards shows.

[@maria-ih4vx]

So apparently skz couldn't hear the announcement, it was actually quieter in the arena then on tv , you can see two members applauding thinking it was other group but chan heard stays saying the group that won was them LMAO , skz are so humble , they truly are the only owners and reason for their success , saying they be making their music from start is a flex so big that most ppl seem to not really get it , 3racha write , produce , compose and arrange their songs which , bang chan is credit even as an sound engineer for newer albums , they record in "channie's room" which is bang chan's studio and 3racha (mostly chan) direct their recordings , I'm truly so proud of them they absolutely killed it at the vmas and left a strong impression showing everyone their own colours and what they able to do , they changed the arrangement for the performance which is actually common for them cause of them performing their title tracks a lot they tend to change their songs in certain award performances (that's usually done by chan and versachoi producer) and they made it even more hip hop that was fitting for the them of the night on the vmas which it was to celebrate 50 years of hip hop, they also had a lot of korean elements in their performance throughout the stages too and it's soo cool to see

[@Resistance_Is_Futile1of3]

You can tell the extra-ness in this performance. There was so much extra in the new dance breaks and I.N lift.. awesome. I just wish that the VMA camerawork folks could have gotten lesson from the MAMA stage crew. I saw a fancam that was position so right to be able to see what the performance should have look like for that move.. I.N was flying high..

[@Keredan]

Btw Bang Chan is the one who is always doing rmx for their performances 💙

[@ballito1222]

Let's go boys ❤ Stray Kids are definitely the future of Kpop and music in general. It's rare to find a group that can tackle so many genres. They just need to try Afrobeats/Amapian/Gqom genres now👊😆🔥🔥🔥let's goooo... more Stray Kids please

[@HASHTAGELEVATED]

That'd be lit tbh

[@Deekookieee]

Can you imagine the hate they'd get if they tried Afrobeats? Look at penmeco. I hope they don't.

[@rosezif]

You are absolutely right, watching your reactions to stray kids is not just entertaining but you give us so much more with your professional point of view and your honest and deep analysis, you are right, despite all the things they have to do because they are told to, I am 100% with you in that you can feel they're heart and soul in every song and every performance I just love them so much and I am so proud of them they all did amazing OMG I can't get over VMAs ❤❤❤ again thank you so much, wish you the best!!

[@madlarking]

If you get a chance find a fan cam of the performance so you can see the insane lift they did of I.N. at the dance break. It gets lost in the lighting effects in the official clip.

[@greenboucher6372]

Amazing how much better Korea is with Camera Work. Poor Han didn’t get his RAP MIN FAME, except last few seconds 😂😂 Congratulations on the supplements 👊🏻👊🏻👊🏻

[@HASHTAGELEVATED]

Thank you🙏🙏

[@yumeroki]

Yeah and you can see how Stray kids doesn’t care about being like other artists, they’re always doing they’re own thing. They got a lot of hate only because they chose to perform a Korean song at a western award show instead of an English song. Like they’re a kpop group! Wtf! 😂 also stray kids does their own remixes from award shows so this was made by them that’s why it’s not like other performances that have an intro then just play the audio of their song and then they do to an outro. Stray Kids are just amazing every performance they do, you can tell they enjoy what they do and that’s why they are breaking records left and right and growing at the rate that they are. So proud of them! 🎉

[@zuzannabrzeszczak1578]

The camera work at the VMAs was .. questionable, to say the least, lol. Still, the boys killed it, and proved that they deserved the award they got. 🏆 My S-Class babies! 🍹🤎

Stray Kids is opener for the Anime Tower of God with their song Top and their song Slump. Both of them have videos you can react too! And also their VMA performance was so fire! ❤🎉 thank you for reacting to Stray Kids we love them so much!

[@kyqueenn]

Y’all would die if you saw Stray Kids perform live like when they’re just being authentic selves with stays at their concert it’s amazing.

[@redblueblck1211]

yall should watch their other year end award shows performance in korea, IT WAS MUCH MORE FIRE AND AMAZING

Best Group

[@imnotacrybaby]

Zoro and Luffy have been my favourites from the beginning. But they're all pretty cool. By the end of it I'm vibing with even the guys they fight because they're all so interesting. Thanks for reacting to Skz!! I hope you enjoy watching One Piece.

[@ROXELL]

Idk if you’ve seen it, but also watch Hyunjin and Changbin’s reaction to winning.They were all the way at the left end(their right), and Hyunjin was just clapping not even paying attention, even though it was their song being played 😂 You can heat Felix’s deep voice when he talks sometimes, just not all the time or everything he says, but it’s definitely not as deep.If you haven’t, listen to Deep End.He can sing higher as well

[@SisterTurtle]

PSST! Tower of God intro and outro was done by Stray Kids! The songs are called "TOP" and "SLUMP". Enjoy!

[@JosiahRyzel]

You have to listen felix song deep end, you can hear how broad his voice is.

[@phylisbrown1181]

Just started watching TOWER OF GOD. I'm too scared to start on ONE PIECE lol Your perception about Idols not being able to date is a little off. Generally, the company bans dating at the beginning of a group's career. This is so they can concentrate on being the best they can be without distractions. EG. STRAY KIDS ban was for 3 years. This lifted in 2021, they are now free to date, but the boys are very dedicated so they either choose not to or are very good at keeping it quiet. I honestly think they are way too busy and the boys are the type to not put a partner on the back burner, they would dedicate time to them.

[@HASHTAGELEVATED]

Oh I meant, it's frowned upon by fans. You know how crazy some fans can get when their oppas are dating haha

[@phylisbrown1181]

@HASHTAGELEVATED oooooh yes. But we normal STAYS would just be happy that they were happy 😊

I have yet to watch One Piece. My favorite character in any anime would be Mob from the Mob Psycho series. I would drop Demon Slayer to watch any new or old episode of Mob Psycho.😂
