Huh, this should've been the finale for Season 1. It felt like one and had its momentum. I completely don't get why the creators decided to end the first season
the way they ended it and at the same time started Season 2 like that, with an episode that has the vibes as if it was something like... hmm, belated Season 1's finale? I think that kind of name is good here.

I did not like the new OP, by the way.

And the episode in general was very good, I really enjoyed it... but again: I had a problem watching this episode, because it felts as if it was a belated final episode of the previous season.

Wow there's a ton going on in this and I wasn't always sure who I should be rooting for. It's unclear to me how many ghoul factions there are and which one is Aogiri? They're the 'bad' ghouls, or at least the one's that are fighting the government agency. So, now to figure out whether Kaneki joining them makes since, is he stronger and broken? Are the ghouls fighting for their lives and rights or just terrorists. Is Kaneki betraying his friends? Hopefully, I'll get some answers (from the show) soon.

Probably one of the worst OPs I've ever heard in my life.

Great first episode, damn Kaneki is much more manly in this form, I just hope he won't left Touka for real, this girl is the true waifu of Tokyo Ghoul

The new op is meh. We see that ghouls are not all truly evil. I rally feel bad for Touka, and her losing Kaneki. That ending hit me hard but I'm looking forward to what Kaneki will do next.

Doesn’t look like this season will be very interesting to me, but I’ll see. Not a lot of people like the new op, but it’s actually pretty good and relaxing, there seems to be some symbolism. I’d like to think that it symbolises that Kaneki, at first, still believed that he was human. And then hands (supposedly Rize’s hands) with painted nails rise up from his chest to his face, he now has his mask and eyepatch on. I think it represents that Rize has now brought him to accept himself as a Ghoul. After that, hands come out from behind his back and cover his face and his mask disappears. I’m not too sure who that could be but it might be Touka or maybe his mother(?). Maybe it symbolises that he will be brought back to Anteiku, where Ghouls who don’t want to eat humans go. I’m actually not too sure. The hands disappear, blood starts to pour out of Kaneki’s right eye. Oof, I typed a bit too much. This probably doesn’t even make any sense

I share the same opinion as most people that this season's intro is not that good, I think it would have been better as outro

I honestly think this episode would have been a better last episode for season 1 as it kind of gives closure to the ongoing battle and what Kaneki chooses to become (leaving behind anteiku because he discarded his former self)

The opening song was boring af, but the song itself is good thou.

Was expecting this arc to be longer. But oh well the main protagonist joining the villain group could be fun to watch

What the hell is going on in this episode? I guess it takes place straight after the last episode in season 1 or something?

I've heard that this season is really bad and if it is, I hope Juuzou gets more screen time because that'll make it a lot better~ ^^

Not a huge fan of the OP but oh well.
I kind of like Kaneki's change but we've only really seen a glimpse so far so my views my change. Also kind of pissed he's joining Aogiri after everyone helped rescue him and I can't tell why he's doing it but I'm sure it will be resolved.

I think Kaneki joined Aogiri so Antique will not be in danger anymore. He sacrificed himself...

I don't like the new op. Probably just because the first was so good. I also was not expected he would go to the other ghouls. He probably did it to protect everyone else. I can't tell if I like it yet.

Like others mentioned this OP is very interesting and I personally am not a big fan of it as well. The rest of the episode was very cool though, and that ending was very interesting. I'm not sure exactly why Kaneki is joining Aogiri, but I thought the way the last scene was composed along with the song was beautifully done.

Starting from where we left off from Season 1 and we already have the OP and ED nice

Owl vs Shinohara and Iwa Amon got excluded from the fight and this is what the owl's power looks like and we also got to see Kaneki fighting Touka's brother in action Kaneki got stronger this time

Kaneki joined the Aogiri and left the Anteiku cafe now that's sad probably to reduce the problems that caused the cafe still sad to see Kaneki though.

With all due respect to those that made it, I don't like this opening especially when compared to it's first one.

Not a fan of the direction but it's cool seeing more of white hair kaneki I guess

Yeah. I didn't like the opening at all. Boring and disappointing. Unravel was great. Series itself is great.

I watched this a while after watching s1 and have absolutely no idea what is going on. Even originally this came out 4 months after s1 ended. Would make sense with at least a short recap?
