When the anime is so bad, even fairy tail ranks higher than it....
RIP Tokyo Ghoul reputation. Forever broken.

I agree cause i am also reading tokyo ghoul manga and its excellent compared to the poor quality of the anime. the creators of the anime are rushing the series and missing important parts of the manga.
Tokyo ghoul's 1st ,2nd ,3rd and 4th season were a big mistake of Pierrot!!!!!

Deservedly is all I have to say.

It’s not just the adaption but the Tokyo Ghoul:re manga itself isn’t as good as its prequel(imo), so I can’t say I’m wholly surprised.
Also the manner in which Studio Pierrot just shoved these two :re sequel seasons to Studio Pierrot Plus just marked its failure from the get-go. Looking at how it’s been adapted, I think it’d have truly been better had Studio Pierrot just dropped the Tokyo Ghoul franchise instead of pushing it to their subsidiary Studio. To be frankly honest though, I didn’t expect this Season, in particular, to be this bad. I was thinking it’d probably be leaning towards the low 7 since the first :re Season lingered(and is about) around the 7.3-7.5 rating.

That score is still WAY too high because 13% of the people who rated it gave it a freaking 10. This is why I consider a MAL score of 6.0-6.5 a 2/10.
Agreed. No way is this a 10. I think people are rating it a 10 based on show allegiance. I loved the first 2 seasons but re: has been a total disaster.

They adapting 120 chapters in only 12 eps, so that's why you see those skips ;)
I understand that, but re 2 season skips are just dumb.

Just wait for the Dragon arc. Tomorrow's episode is going to piss of so many people. Then the Dragon arc, tch. This show's going below 6 guarantee. We should just use this show to destroy Studio Pierrot's reputation so that they can't fuck up any more anime in the future.

S=Judging from the promo art it seems like Dragon itself will be CG.....and really bad CG at that.

This comes down to my personal preference and I'm sorry if anyone are offended. I started this season with wondering "have I skipped a season?". I'm not a manga reader. In fact I don't have the time right now, but that's another story. I've watched the 7 first episodes, and I gave it a 4. I honestly want to give it a 3. The only reason I stick with this now, is because I want to know if they can give this season a decent ending. I really liked Tokyo Ghoul and √A. I think I gave both of them 7 (I use whole scale from 1 to 10). :re season 1 was OK too, gave a 7, but I want to lower the score to a 6 (because I liked the two first seasons better). This season is just a train wreck. No proper storyline. Or ... I at least can't follow the story, because too much are happening at once. Nothig makes sense. The things that do make sense are rushed. It's so forced. No proper feelings. I can't feel the anime at all. So sad, because the three first season was OK.

It's still very generous of you giving :re 1st season a 6. You would be disappointed by this adaptation if you read the manga before.

Did it drop so much, because they jumped to more adult characters or was it just a different tone from the previous season? Or maybe it's because the manga readers came to check it out and were not pleased...

TG S1 was so good that it would be hard to keep it up... If it was a Small Studio.

Pierrot Has no excuses for shitting on the TG franchise the way they are doing it. Even Boruto and Black Clover (Also from them) have been well received. I was lowkey waiting for this to happen.

Having read the manga of Tokyo Ghoul, it is not a surprise that the ratings of the anime version are a bit lower than expected. The creators are simply pushing the story, skipping most of the important parts in the storyline which might have been the reason all the manga readers aren't giving them good ratings.
Nonetheless, i still think that the creators have done a great job. The scenes, soundtrack are truly lovely, the environment is rhythmic too. Even i got hooked to watching it and even got myself a kaneki female cosplay for a comic con. Would highly recommend to anyone who is an anime fan.

Tokyo Ghoul is a guaranteed money maker, but it seems nobody in the executive seat understands this. Or they understand it so well that they've been infighting to a point where they butchered the series.

Either way the voice-acting is subpar and doesn't get the right edge, drama or emotion or even humor across.
The animation is too simple and stale.
The fight-scenes are always well thought out in the manga, but instead of following it or making it better animation-wise, they seem to use mediocre stopmotion which doesn't properly convey the gravity & meaning behind certain fights.
And the biggest problem is the constant cutting to new scenes, fast forward, flashbacks in a way that makes even manga readers' head spin in confusion. It needs enough time to shine, which it simply doesn't get.

There's most definitily solo animators out there that could make a 20 minute episode following the manga that would come out far better than a team that only realizes Tokyo Ghoul's importance and worth on a superficial level.

Damn, it’s really going down by each passing week!
If this keeps up, I won’t be surprised if the show’s rating decreases linearly all the way down to 6.0 or so by the next few weeks.

I think if they took the time to flesh things out, preferably give us a couple more seasons to do so. This show could have been outstanding, but because they decided to rush it and skip over everything it turned out very disappointing. I still enjoy watching it because im a huge fan of the manga, but I wish it could have been so much more.

Apparently so. I figured most people binge-ing this season after the airing would not find it to their liking but it turned out to be otherwise. Good for the fans of the franchise nonetheless.
