User blog comment:GoDai/GoDai's Translations: T.U.S., Exis, and Phantaminum (Pentaminum)/@comment-5484427-20120906194437

To begin with I really enjoyed reading your article it's really well made (ah and i apologize if my English isn't perfect ^^).

I have a theory about the whole universe of Tower of God and TUS.

As you said TOG is most likely one of those towers but the intriguing fact is that there is not only one tower but 30 it sounds to me as a test's facility more than just tower with people inside. And the name of the story contain the word "God" in it so like the people before me I think it is a facility to create a God.

But what I want to add is that the story of TOG actually gives many hints for TUS if you pay attention :

- first guess : the guardians are almost god and can use and control shinsoo for everything and cannot be threaten by regulars but only by people coming from the outside and it might be 'cause those outsiders aren't made of shinsoo unlike the insiders, and it sounds a lot like the definition of Exis to me except the fact that they can use shinsoo for absolutely everything unlike the Exis who have special abilities so they are restrain (and not complete god). Another point for my theory is Enryu : he killed a guardian who are normally god and have absolute control over shinsoo so to put bluntly to overcome an absolute control you should not have absolute control over shinsoo yourself ('cause Enryu have some limits to his control over it, if not he shouldn't need to fight and have the enemies suffocate instead or he could make any one he wants an immortal or unkillable by regulars as the guardian did for King Zahard) but to have a greater power over shinsoo just like Exis who can only be killed by a more powerful Exis. So the guardian must be experiments of Exis without specialities but are only here as failed experiments because they cannot use their powers over more than a floor (which already the size of America it is amazing but small in comparison to Phantaminum whose control is over the entire tower but he is only in the top 5 of the Exis so even this is not sufficient to be The God Duke is speaking of) and they can't use their ability over something else than shinsoo. So the tower may have been made in a way to develop an atmosphere where you could develop power like God and there is so many floor in order to increase the power to assure the viability outside, not to lose all these powers even if in an environment without shinsoo so in the universe of TUS.

- second guess : the number of tower isn't for creating God but for manufacturing Exis at a larger scale and have a big army (but I prefer the first guess ^^)

- as for Phantominum maybe is ability over minds wasn't used over the ranker to scare them but so that they would forget his face in case another Exis entered the Tower looking for Phantaminum and it would explain why Yuri saw him as a dirty one because he could have manipulate her to think that way.

-Another theory would be that Phantominum entered the Tower in order to check how the results about the experiments were progressing and it would explain why he rampage on the Zahard castle and not any other place in order to juge the strongest opponent at the moment in the 134th floor (because Enryu had already disappeared) and why he left so quickly because the results were far from being enough so he is waiting for changes and that would also explain why SIU said "Phantaminum could destroy the entire tower if he wants" so if he was bored due to the lack of results or if this was a dead end.
