sucks bad i watch this with 2x speed and still find it boring 4/10

this season is about talking and drinking coffee (literally) and how the hell do you expect non manga reader to cry for Hide scene, it was just stupid, hide scene was like 70 percent of the last episode, which i give no shit about hide

Beyond disappointed. We didn't spend nearly enough time this season with Kaneki and Hide to make this deserve four minutes of walking, Yomo appearing out of the blue, Anteiku on fire out of the blue, and Arima not getting the hype he needed throughout the season to make this work. The directing is good, I can tell what each shot is meant to frame, but it doesn't matter when there's just no structural support for the actual content. Then we get teasered :re for all the manga fans, which makes me reflect on how many plot holes we glossed over that weren't explained because that was in the manga and the manga had the better story.

tl;dr manga master race

EDIT: Also, ugly CG Ixa last episode and textureless Narukami for the lose.

was anoying that hide never amount to anything when he had hints of being someone special someone who would have a big reveal but nothing.
kan committing un seen suicide arima would own him in seconds seems kinda fail it fits the show ish but still annoying to not see him ever go all out also anyone knw why in the cafe his hair turned brown before u see him leave with white wats tht about?.
what did touka see at the end which made her stop for a moment? kan?

Guys calm down, can't you see is an open invitation to read the manga? First, Kaneki was never really present, never got words from him or what he was really thinking, many other plot holes left there for you find it on the manga. Studio Pierrot did a good job trying to mend the first season, and actually making a decent "alternate" story, everything set for a possible third season ( Amon and Pineapple guy missing, Hide may be alive). Too bad there is no Kaneki vs Arima but with censorship would've be as epic as the manga so I'm fine with just the suit case opening.

I liked the direction of the direction of the episode, makes you realise how much was lost on both sides. That being said am gonna give the season as a whole a 7. Seeing as they have further plans for the franchise I hope they revisit the original route and adapt the manga properly in the form of movies or something. Unless they're fully committed to this original route and continue on to :re though am not sure how that's gonna work. Either way i think there will be a sequel of some kind

Continuing to :re would be madness. They'd need to fill in all the huge gaps before they could move on to that otherwise none of it would make any sense.

That was a quite sad ending.
I was afraid that Touka would die, wich she didn't. What i did not expect is that Kaneki would die..
Some say that he didn't and I'm quite confused of if he actually is alive or not.

This season felt quite rushed and I think that they could have used more episodes. I know that the producers can't go over budget, but still..

I still have my hopes up for a next sequel and I really hope that Kaneki did survive.

What the fuck is this shit? Even in the end, they didn't explain shit. They don't even introduce the clowns bastard so that we can hate on them.

We don't even get to see Arima beating the shit out of Kaneki. So much fail in this episode, its off the chart.

God, the scene of Kaneki walking while holding Hide is way too long. They run out of budget and drag shit apparently.

This is a tragedy story but I didn't hope for the adaption to be a tragedy too.

They could have cut down on the Touka running scenes and added the Arima vs Ken fight would've been better in my opinion.

Idk what to think about the ending, I see the relation they made to the manga, but leaving out strong parts of the manga made this pretty weak. And with the manga being so new does that mean there won't be a s3 of the anime for a while?

Completely agree. Like i said the only way they would be able to continue on to :re is to commit to this route. As such :re would be completely original in terms of direction. It's a bad idea, and will only create a bigger mess. Their best bet would be to animate the original story in the form of ovas or movies. But that really depends on the sales and the popularity

I don't really know much about studios being able to gain rights to anime series' etc, but is there any chance another company will be able to get the rights to Tokyo Ghoul and remake it? (ideally Madhouse) I'm honestly just so frustrated with the adaptation and if Pierrot announce they're going to adapt :re i'm honestly going to lose my shit

episode had a great atmosphere.


the problem with the way this season was done is that having such an open ending with so many things unexplained is fine as we just followed kaneki's story that most likely ended here but there was simply not enough of kaneki for this to make sense. hell the second season was alot more about the world in general with lots of scenes for ccg members so just ending it like this is disappointing.

characters that simply did not show up at all aswell.

better than the first season for me but it felt like there was a lack of focus. something here something there some character introductions here some little back story there. a bit of everything but not enough

That tokyo ghoul Re ending though !!!!

Tokyo Ghoul Jack OVA confirmed yay !

I gave 7/10 mostly due to Kaneki's lack of presence in the show. If only they made remake of the 2. season that would just follow the manga...

I was wondering, what if they consider doing 3rd season solely focusing on the explanation of the missing plot-pieces. and then with around enough material start adapting :re

As a manga reader, I kind of enjoyed this. It's not the best, but it made me cry and my chest hurt. I didn't get to see much of Kaneki and Hide so if I were an anime-only watcher, I would agree that it wouldn't make me feel as much as I should. But since I'm not, from what I have read and watched, they made it seem like Kaneki and Hide were the 'amon and kaneki' (sort of) in the anime.

In the manga, what was emphasized was the human and ghoul relationship of amon and kaneki, as rivals. Here, it was Hide and Kaneki's relationship as friends.

Looking at Kaneki from the manga, and from Root A, they do seem like two different people (but not entirely).

Getting a Tokyo Ghoul (Brotherhood) may seem unlikely, and I'm not really hoping for it. Guess I'm just grateful for this adaptation. And even if it didn't provide what I expected, it still provided me with the entertainment I needed.

If you're complaining about the budget, what budget? Most people who view their stuff don't pay, which includes me.

Just glad they didn't use Glassy Sky again

EDIT:
If you manga readers are complaining about how they didn't "explain shit", ishida didn't explain anything in the manga either, answers just came with more questions. Until he made :re.

This one, however, I doubt a 3rd season will come out. Unless, like I said... brotherhood.

The OVA is going to be of Tokyo Ghoul: Jack. But this series is very popular so it would most likely get a third season.

I thought this episode would be fast and packed with as much as possible since there were so many unanswered questions but... :/ like 1/5 of the episode was just Kaneki's hair. A very slow episode. I liked it but I was also kind of disappointed. There's so much that's been left out. At least they've hinted at :re (It'll be a long time before they can consider doing a third season though).

I can't believe the body that Kaneki was carrying is Hide! I thought it was like the human him. HIDE! :'(

Also LOVE the new version of Unravel. Beautiful song. :)

Garbage until the end of its days.
This wasn't even trying to be good, at least season 1 gave you hope that they could redeem themselves.
"Original storyline" how about NO, thanks for nothing.

yup, no arima vs kaneki, no V14, no pierrot, no twins, no doc kanou, no sachi and why he is with aogiri, no explanation why aogiri did interfer with the CCG raid, no explanation why only now little owl did what she did

Just a heads-up, when it showed Arima standing alone in the snow with Narukami infront of him, it then transitioned to which looked like Arima's hair being blown by the wind, that's actually Kaneki. At the bottom part of the hair there's a shadow which means he was lying on the floor. They didnt show the eyes but they probably would in the BD's. Just like how they did with the centipede part in the finale of S1.
