| Shitty adaptation from Studio Perriot. |
 |
| well I am going to make a list: 1. the ghouls feeding needs are unsustainable; they are too many. in just a 1-3 years they will depopulate the entire area. that is because humans have a small reproduction rate i.e. it takes a lot of time for humans to reproduce and do not have many offspring. 2. we are supposed to sympathize with creatures that eat humans. I do not care your conditions if you eat humans you will find no sympathy from me. 3. ghouls in Tokyo Ghoul break the ghoul lore in a similar way to Twilight 4. meat is meat. It has mostly the same chemical composition. They want to seem reasonable but they could find alternatives from pork meat dipped in coffee to other alternatives. Vampires in myths developed synthetic blood, we developed vegetable cheese and so on. They do not even try. 5. is vegan propaganda 6. the whole invulnerability to blades makes no sense. It was never in the lore and is just like Twilight 7. The main character is a wuss. 8. No matter how corrupt ghoul hunters may be in the end the ghoul population must be severely decreased 9. It is a question about the fly and the spider TRIGUN http://myanimelist.net/anime/6/Trigun did it much better. In this case there is no question: is just humans against the ghouls. For humans to survive ghouls must die. On the other hand ghouls will die either way because their feeding patterns are unsustainable even when eating suiciders. Top predators have a diverse diet live long and reproduce rare. If they do not follow these rules they are going to be extinct. |
SpookyGhosty said: Last night I sat through the entire series and overall it was alright. I didn't see anything "Extremely Horrible", yes a few cliches but honestly overall I would recommend it to someone who wants to watch an anime to keep them interested. So I guess the real question is, why/how did "Tokyo Ghoul" accumulate so much hate? It's disgusting because of cannibalism. |
| Maybe because of all the gore and stuff? |

Top predators have a diverse diet live long and reproduce rare. If they do not follow these rules they are going to be extinct. 1) Ghouls have less offspring because most die, they also consume each other as well as humans. Basically it probably works, the percentage of ghouls to humans is really small. 2) Meh, edge kun. 3) They can be pretty and also fucking scary 4) RC cells 5) It definitely is, fucking vegans! 6) Exactly just like fucking twilight. 7) IKR 8) Ghoul hunters are led by ghouls 9) Entirely true, their solution as Ghouls (v) would be becoming humans/half humans tl;dr your a massive troll fgt have a kiss you ignore what I said. it does not matter how fast ghouls reproduce. What it matters is how fast their food source reproduces and reaches maturity and how much ghouls consume in that time. Ghouls consume 12 adult humans/year. That may not seem much but if you consider how long it takes for a human to reach maturity is a lot. And there are a lot of ghouls. They are at least 50 ghouls by district. one district has around 54.000 people . And those ghouls eat at least 750 people a year. It may not seem much but in the 25 years it takes a human to reach adulthood it makes 18.500 people. That is more than one third of population and if we account for gluttons and such we can assume the number reaches half the population. Hunting apex predators in such a manner usually leads to extinction. Humans are worse than others because modern human does not produce so many children . Most animals produce a litter of 4-12 progeny each year and they mature in 2 years. Humans produce 1-2 children which mature in 25 years. And maybe I am a massive troll but it does not change the fact that I am right. Death to the Ghouls! |
| Personally, I found the plot really boring. (I liked the plot for first 30 chapters of the manga, but I got really bored after Kaneki got a strong power buff...) Also, there were too many characters for me to remember. It's all just opinions though. |
| I didn't like the anime It was horse shit but the manga is not that great i found it boring it can't compare to other of the same genre. |
| Liking traps is gay and liking Lolis is Pedophila. Come at me bruh! |
| I ended up reading the manga myself and it seems the first season followed it relatively close and then season 2 came out and completely fell flat. |
MrPerfectDerp said: Maybe because of all the gore and stuff? Lol, that is most definitely not the reason. |
 |
| The show tries to portray the ghouls as being misunderstood creatures, despite the fact that they need to eat people to survive. The ghouls deserve to be wiped out. |
| I haven't read the manga and I really didn't care for the anime (so much so I removed the manga from my to-read list, but seeing everyone saying it's so much better, I may come back to it when I run out of stuff to read). I didn't like it because I felt it was overdramatic. I felt like Attack on Titan on stereoids with all the angst these characters had, and I just didn't buy it for anyone but the MC. I hated most of the supporting cast, felt things rushed too fast, cliche . . . Really all I liked was the Opening and Closing animation and songs. |
 |
| Lol manga isn't that good either,it just an ok manga with gore and godly art.The biggest flaw of tokyo ghoul[including manga and anime] is that the action taken by characters doesn't make any sense.It only got famous because of mangaka art[Not gonna lie mask are fucking cool in TG] and gore. |

| It was alright at best. Had a few good moments but overall in the big picture, it's a shit show. But it could just be me having high expectations; I expected so much more than what I got, so there's that bias I guess. |
  |
| The average score is 8, but if you look at the top-rated reviews its around 5. I've seen this a lot of times and I've only come to this one conclusion - "experts" deliberately give shows with high score a low one, so that they can act as if they see and understand more than anyone else and feel superior.Its as if they see flaws that no one else does because they're so good at watching anime. Its the same people that give boring anime a high score for being "deep" claiming that they see it in a different light. Thats why its much better to look at the average score, rather than the review ones. So in short - why does it receive low score? Most likely so that people can brag how sophisticated their anime watching skills are. |
| Gib [img] plz |
| i'm not sure tbh i love it hahah . @Malachite_2000 says something about how the ghouls are in the wrong just because only 1% choose not to eat humans. Well to ghouls, even though they have other choices like eating an already dead human, they see themselves as a superior race and that humans are simply food. Just like people and eating meat. It's the same thing. Plus with the killing on both sides ghouls don't feel like they even have to find another way to eat. i wanna talk about the other points you've made but honestly don't want to type all of it out hahah I agree things were really rushed, but i really didn't think its that terrible. I'm just hoping they reboot it or something. |

| I dislike it because it could be so much more than it was. I didn't love the manga either tho. |
 |
| I feel like mainly the people who read the manga seem to not like it, I enjoyed it but haven't read the manga yet. Also, there was a lot of complaining about the censoring. |
| Lol season 1 of the anime and the manga are 90 percent the same. So people saying it's a bad adaptation are talking shit. Some People hate it because they are trying to be cool by jumping on the hate train because it is popular, and stupid people who live in their mums basements and have nothing better to do then hate on popular anime like to have a bash at it. |
| Just finished season one yesterday and I've never read the manga. I'd say it's a bit above average. Not the worst anime but it didn't really do much for me. There were some beautiful visuals at times and a few likeable characters. |
| Because of Season 2. The First one Was quite good IMO Because it atleast followed the manga. |
| Signature removed. Please follow the signature rules, as defined in the Site & Forum Guidelines. |
| It was a bad idea to stuff a 143 chapter manga into a 24 episode anime. |
  |
| I loved both seasons and while yes the censorship is retarded it also added to the immersion. It is a 10/10 for me |
| Tokyo Ghoul is mostly hated for it's anime adaptation in the start in Season 2 (Root A) as it's legit a filler throughout the whole series, a lot of people are saying it's just so "overrated" and not even related to the manga and now that TG: re is going to be released by the same company that made Season 2 just so much hateful and letting the community down is that we just hope that they learnt their mistakes from Root A. To be honest, I enjoyed the two seasons but it just wasn't understandable of some parts of the show. |
Oh my god I'm so fast, so fast and so fat |
| Because of all the fans who have actually read the manga and know how horrible an adaptation is |
| Because it's a god damn terrible adaptation of what is otherwise a very enjoyable and interesting manga. The anime overall completely misses the general atmosphere of the original - like, for fuck's sake, the kagune are glowing like it's neo tokyo or some shit. Maybe it would've been cool if they pulled an absolute madman and set the whole thing in the good ol' 80s, but it's a shame they didn't. Don't even get me started with the second season - I swear to God almighty, Ishida Sui worked his tiny little autistic ass off to create a full length manga form draft for the whole second season - and what did the guy in charge do? He straight up ignores it and does his own thing, which endded up being shit. God knows how the Tokyo Ghoul:re anime is going to end up - the character designs already look like ass, so I'll just go along with it to make myself want to die more. |
Chinese Cartoons are the end of me |
| 1) over hyped af 2) pacing is awful 3) characters change morals/personalities/motives randomly, lessening their impact 4) it's an interesting world that doesn't even fully explore itself - the world/setting has SO much wasted potential. ... that being said, I'm actually binge-ing it because I can't look away. I've invested this much time, I'm like fuck it. It helps that I legit don't need to use my brain at all. tl;dr - it's by FAR not the worst anime, but it ain't good. |
  |
| Tokyo ghoul is awesome. It has one of the best character developments I've ever seen and the anime did a good job adapting the manga (especially that Jason X Kaneki fight scene). I feel that the hate is mostly stemmed from those filthy casuals who can't appreciate or hold their opinion and hence get swayed easily by the media. |

 "Boobies, boobies, boobies... that's all guys think about these days. Well, they're idiots. Show me a boob man and I'll show you a no-brain, no-class knuckle-dragger who knows nothing of the fairer sex. I don't get it; you can't take the measure of a good woman just by ogling her chest. There are far more important things to consider"~Space Dandy |
| Also there is another issue with the setup. Normally high end predators will generally hunt the old and the sick to allow the young to reproduce. So in the case of humans it would mean women over 35 men over 70, prostitutes, alcoholics and drug addicts, people with terminal diseases. But the anime shows them hunting mostly children and people in their prime. You know what happens when you do that? Just like empowering women there is no one left to make babies and population drops fast. So even if you do not have a problem with siding against humans which generally I do ghouls should still be killed merciless. They are an invasive species that cannot be contained. And if you do not believe my figures look at Japan. Their natality is shit and even people that could biologically have children choose not to. So enjoy anime now because thanks to ideas like those promoted in Tokyo Ghoul soon there mught be none to make them. |
