Well, they've said that cannibalizing to ghouls is like ''forbidden fruit''. Although I'll agree that a bit more explaining is in order, however the anime isn't even halfway through the season yet. |

Yeah, thought so. They make it seems like Centipede is just a random power-up for Kaneki but since he's also gone insane during the scene, it wasn't that obvious of a power-up I guess. |
| Some information about the new episodes thanks to OldMcdonald. Old said: Episode 7: Directors/storyboarders of the episodes: Episode 6: Tadahito Matsubayashi Episode 7: Souichi Shimada Episode 8: Yoriyasu Kogawa<- This is the episode director of ep 4, and I think it's an action episode. Let's pray for a miracle. I'll obviously keep my expectations lowered for episode 8 because that guy is horrible at directing action episodes. I'm more interested in episode 7 because it seems Hinami might have a larger role there. Perhaps this is the episode where she meets Takatsuki again. |

Why giving that sucky director an action episode?! Yes season 2 is starting to get more and more disappointing... my hoped have dropped like 300%.... Yup I bet a rewrite of season 2 will be one of my next ideas for a fanfic. or maybe even a parody to satisfy myself... |

| The ending arts are gold. It was a really good episode. |
Z4k said: Hah we get that Amon and Akira scene and that bitch Roma there too Yeah, fuck Roma. At this point I also doubt we'll get as it will take quite a lot of episodes to do the last arc properly. I wonder how they'll resolve how the twins became ghouls though. |

| Roma doesn't deserve the 103 treatment. She deserves the 206 treatment! I just hope Sasako would give her the treatment she deserves xD |

| What's with the Roma hate? She hasn't done a single thing since her introduction. |

Kaneki needs to give her the feeling of pure torture, slowly and extreeeeeeemely painful! Crush those brains of hers and throw her in the trash!!! I was disappointing with the bad portray of Suzuya's past, where's the cute crossdressing? Why hasn't Touka's hair grown? and the interaction between Amon and Akira was... well still not comparable with the manga. Now I wonder, what will become of our Kaneki? His mind really seems to be fucked up, not as fucked up as the manga shows, but still. BTW did anyone also get disturbing thoughts when Amon was training? Seriously I swear if anyone were to walk in while I was watching that scene they might have thought I was watching Japanese porn. XD |

ninjastarforcex said: so ishida just "fuck it, who cares about kanou anyway..."??? i dont see anyway kanou randomly become important at this point.. They showed him standing with Shiro and Kuro in the first episode. Also Jason stated he was the one who experimented on Kaneki so I think he's still has a role to play in the anime. |
| whaaaat they totally ruined the amon cock push ups scene. it just seemed like he was disappointed in his failure, not overcoming sexual temptation.....smh lame |

Z4k said: anikaneki said: whaaaat they totally ruined the amon cock push ups scene. it just seemed like he was disappointed in his failure, not overcoming sexual temptation.....smh lame Is that even relevant to the plot? I think is kind of relevant to the character, it meant that his guilt was so much that he wouldn't even let himself touch her, and felt even more guilty for wanting to. It made you realize how important it was to Amon the responsibility of protecting her, even from himself. I mean he even didn't let her kiss him. That is how obsessive was his sense of responsibility and morality. |

| I don't think they completely took it out. I mean, the scene basically pans over her body while she's laying there, doesn't take a genius to figure out what Amon's thinking in that moment. But yeah they could've made it a little more obvious. |
| Tbh, I didnt pay much attention to it, I was more focused on Shinohara and juuzo's relationship. And disappointed with Takizawa scene, that wasnt how it happened...the drunk scene i mean |

That is how obsessive was his sense of responsibility and morality. yes... yes it is relevant. a good amount of his character is defined by this scene. out of respect for her and kureo, Amon chooses to overcome cardinal temptation by physically disciplining himself with exercise...just like when that one dude got killed by touka and he went to work out in his house...besides the fact that its hilarious i really respected his character for having such strong morals, it displayed his mental fortitude. this anime scene didn't really touch on that. it just made him seem regretful about kureo with no real incentive to do 7,890 something pushups. |

| Some of your complains are way too hilarious to take seriously. They kept the important scenes yet you guys still expect a 1:1 adaptation which even ufotable failed to do with F/sn? |

Visual Novels, Light Novels and Manga are different mediums. You can make a complete 1:1 adaptations with manga, but not with VN and LN since they contains many world-buildings that can't be included easily in the story-telling. Though you can make faithful VN/LN adaptations by keeping and staying true to important elements/plots of said VN/LN without cutting out too much of the world-buildings and character developments which is what ufotable is currently doing for F/SN. Anyway, I don't really have any more expectations for this adaptations by Pierrot except for them to make a decent Kaneki vs Arima and Eto vs Arima since the story is already a mess as it is. Let's all hope they remake the whole TG manga first, by another studio ofc, in a few coming years before touching :re or it will be too late/much even for :re remake. |

| Any possibility Rize will be in Root A? With the censors back in full force I'm imagining the face of the fans when this will be the last scene of the anime :P And the screen is fully black from shadow-kun XD |

But there hasn't been any 1:1 manga adaptations that are similar to Tokyo ghoul in these recent years. To name some Magi, Nanatsu no Taizai, Parasyte and Terraformars all had changes when compared to the manga which consists of either rushing and skipping the material, bringing some anime original stuff or modernising some scenes. Heck even Attack on titan can be added on that list. All of the above series are titles more popular than Tokyo ghoul yet none of them had a 1:1 adaptation so I wonder what made the mangareaders think it will have one despite being limited to 12 episode? |

The only decent adaptation you mentioned above is AoT and I would call that a 1:1 adaptation since they only change little things which were asked by the author himself. Even the anime-original stuff makes sense to the story instead of being useless fillers. Maybe you can look into manga adaptations by studio like I.G, Madhouse or Bones. Example, Hunter x Hunter and FMA:B. As for me, the fact that Pierrot are doing this already lowered my expectations and the fact S1 had 12 eps just crushed all my hopes. That's why I'm just hoping that another studio like I mentioned above will pick up the manga for a remake instead of another adaptations from Pierrot. I do agree with you about these manga-readers having expectations from this season when it's evident how bad S1 was are kinda annoying. |

I guess no one likes to answer this question, but i'm going to ask you too. Do you have the draft that they use for the anime to judge this adaptation? Can you share that with the rest of the world? I'd very much like to see what it contains. |

C'mon man no one is expecting a 1:1 adaption but how on earth can you say that the first season and now this original route do the manga justice? (and I say this as someone who watched the anime first) Some changes are ok and Pierrot went too far Oh, so you are the one that has the draft given to them by Ishida... can you share what it contains? I'd very much like to see how they are not following that. |

I'm talking about the first season this whole original route thing only happened because they screwed up S1 No it didn't. Ishida specifically asked Pierrot to do a different route once the anime was greenlit. This was stated in the comments YJ magazine and it was also stated that he made the drafts for the second season back in July when the first season was airing. |

How did they handle the materials? Now, let's say there's an anime-original draft provided by Ishida himself to Pierrot, do you think they will do justice to it? IMO, No. They will just change things around and mess with the materials just like S1. When I mean the story is a mess, I don't mean they didn't follow the plot, rather it was handled very poorly. Just compare the experience of the anime and the manga, they still follow the same plot but... well, I don't think that I need to elaborate further on that since you've read the manga too. |
