| This show is just jumping around without explanation at this point. And they've been hyping up Tattara since Root A and he goes out like a punk against Takizawa, who has some beef with him that the show doesn't even bother explaining until after the fact. Seriously? On the bright side, bringing Amon back was cool after all this time, but how come he's a ghoul too now? How many people could Kanou have realistically turned into ghouls like that? Damn it, I still want to like this but it's such a mess. |
| Such underwhelming fights. Even the Amon vs Takizawa was ruined for me. Dang it Pierrot, you're making fun of this series. The only thing that saves this anime for me are Furuta moments. |
 |
After reading some comments I decided to drop it right now. It seems there's no hope left for the anime. 1/10 biggest disappointment this year (and I'm not even a manga reader) |
 |
| Worst anime episode of TG in genral. I did not even understand what was going on in the first half of this EP. Never seen such a mess. To be honest, Dragonball Kai wasnt that rushed even doe cut like half of the show. But this episode right here just convinced me to finish reading the final chapters of the manga and NOT watching the anime first. Honestly i wont let this trashy show ruin :re for me. Because the 2nd half of the manga actually IS fucking dope. Its just sad to see how they fucked up this show. The TG ive used to know (and im talking about the anime - including root A) was a story about ken stuggling with his new live as a ghoul as he explores more and more of the cruelties of this world. There was A LOT of detail in the story and character developement and so on. But now we have a show about a lot of random characters fighting each other in scenes which i cant even follow. And with each episode the story starts to make less and less sense. I was so hyped for this but right now i am just like  |
| everything is random Tokyo Ghoul:Re is 1/10, throwing you new characters,events,story is random, you cant even understand whats happening in this anime. i really love Tokyo Ghoul S1. all the build up from Tokyo Ghoul S1 is gone. ruined by this TG:RE.. and i really hate it.. is this the same team who make TOKYO GHOUL S1? i hope they are not high on drugs while making this anime. |

I just realized that all of my favorite characters, beside being stunningly beautiful, also happen to be exceptionally skilled murder machines. \('-')/ I'm level  on mal-badges. View my badges. |
| I have no idea who any of these characters are lmfao. Who the hell is that girl with the weird thing in her stomach? Oh, well. Good to see Amon again. I remember that brief scene with him in the previous season. Was wondering when he was finally going to make his actual return. |
| Episodes are so far apart that i almost don't recognize anyone... there are 20 different characters in this episode, complete clownfiesta. |

| I stopped reading the manga quite a while ago, and I was so confused watching this. This was just one huge mess. |
Andou69 said: What is happening with this anime now is what happened to FMA's first anime adaptation. With that said an actual not autistic studio is going to eventually pick up and reboot this show and finally do it justice. I really hope so, this adaptation is just awful in every aspect |

Good to see Amon again. I remember that brief scene with him in the previous season. Was wondering when he was finally going to make his actual return. Its one of the two sisters weve been introduced during Root A. One of them had white hair i think her name was shino. And the other girl whicch is still alive is the one with black hair. |
I watch anime for the fan service plot since I don't really like ecchi but it just so happens that it is included in mostly the good shows I like. ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°) |
Xaelath said: So, there is no hope for us to get something like Tokyo Ghoul season 1 again? :(( I really like Tokyo Ghoul, but at this point even the OVA (JACK, PINTO) episodes are much better than this...Orion_Gospel said: Oh God.

| Who said the first season was crap? This is really crap. Too many characters I can not remember. Too much is happening, all fights are pointless for me. reminds me of Taboo Tattoo |

I mean, i never liked TG that much, but i always found it just ok. Now, it gets worse and worse |

| I'm just watching this for the waifus at this point. |
| MAL: A community that thinks every anime is bad, but rates everything a 7/10. |
| This episode is such an unmitigated disaster that I don’t even know where to begin. First of all, this series (Tokyo Ghoul as a whole) that I cannot even keep track of who is who and what is going on. As someone who has not read the manga, I’m so confused about what’s going on, who is feuding with who, and why the anime is putting focus on characters that have had zero buildup to this point. I do know part of the problem is Tokyo Ghoul and Root A deviated from the manga while Re is a more faithful adaptation...but if you went into from just TG and Root A, there’s no way to keep track of what’s going on. I’ll be blunt, I really think this series should have went the Fullmetal Alchemist route like it did with Brotherhood. They should have just re-booted from the beginning and went down a direct path that’s a more faithful adaptation to the manga. |

To be perfectly blunt, the way this is produced, it’s like the production team didn’t even watch TG and Root A. It’s like they just asked the previous production team where they left off in regard to the manga and that’s it. So, they’re producing it with the expectation that viewers are going to know who certain characters are at any given time, no questions asked, but in all actuality, those characters and plot points were cut, so unless you read the manga, you’re not going to know. People can be critical of the previous production team, but this team has created an even bigger disaster. While TG and Root A deviated, at least I could watch it and have a general idea of what was going on. Watching Re is like trying to drive in an indie car race before you even get your driver’s license. |

They should have just re-booted from the beginning and went down a direct path that’s a more faithful adaptation to the manga. If we want a decent adaptation based on source material, Tokyo Ghoul would need 7 seasons of 12-episodes cour; i.e. 3 seasons for Tokyo Ghoul (48 chapters each season), and 4 seasons for Tokyo Ghoul:re (45 chapters each season). That's comparable to how Attack on Titan is adapted from the manga. While currently, we've only got four which already covers the ending. So, yes, it needs a reboot. |

| so yeah, a lot of stuff happened god knows what happened to whom tho my confusement is all-time high |
| This anime is a waste of time, so i wont waste more time writing about it. It sucks. |
| Signature removed. Please have a positive iq. |

| What's even happening in this anime...I don't even know who some of the characters are and where did they came from. I guess that's how it goes for a non-manga reader. :( |
| So my review of this garbo got deleted cause I couldn't tolerate it for 4 episodes and was asked to move it to the episode discussion section instead so here we go I guess. I have seen hentai with better writing than this. Literally it fails at everything that I had to make an exception in my rule to complete what I start all the time. It's that bad. I don't even know what they were thinking when they published this shit. This gives school days a run for its money. Absolutely awful I can't empathize it enough. Don't watch this. I'm not even going to go into detail about whatever the hell this is. There is no reason. No purpose behind this. It's just there. It's a mistake. It should be burnt with gasoline fueled with the living body of whoever decided this was a good idea. Don't waste your time watching this. They are adapting almost everything the manga has and only telling you what happens. It's a 12-episode trailer that spoils any enjoyment you could have had out of the manga. Bottom line: I hate it. |
| This time on Tokyo Ghoul Re: Season 2, Bunch of random characters that I don't know or don't remember die. No Eto screen time? Instant 0/10. |

JoshsoJB said: There won't be any continuation after this season since they are adapting the whole 122 chapters of the manga in one cour of 12 episodes.I wonder how Japan is receiving this series so far. If it's just as bad to them as it is to us in the west, hopefully they voice their disppointment loud enough for the creators to notice and reconsider how they're adapting TG. Production for the rest of the episodes is probably done though so any changes would have to wait until after if they're going to continue. Not holding my breath for them to learn from their mistakes since a lot of Pierrot's stuff is of this quality. Oh and I have no input on this episode as I'm not even going to bother with this whole season. Never really got too attached to this series so it's pretty easily droppable for me. |

JoshsoJB said: Yeah, you've mistaken it. The first 57 chapters were already adapted in the first season of Tokyo Ghoul:re last April, while the currently airing season is adapting the rest of it (122 chapters). That fact alone is enough to fuel the fans' rage.electromagneto said: I looked into it, not a manga reader, and there appears to be 16 volumes of 179 chapters of :re. They could make one or two more (probably only one in Pierrot's case) seasons with the the rest of the 57 chapters right? Or am I missing something about the TG lore?There won't be any continuation after this season since they are adapting the whole 122 chapters of the manga in one cour of 12 episodes. |

thebrentinator24 said: "Instead of making things make sense let's just do 20 straight minutes of nonstop, mindless action between characters that most of our viewers have forgotten or don't know." -The people behind this adaptation, probably. But really, nothing seems to be making any sense so far. For instance, did they even properly build up to this Amon reveal? It seemed like that was just dropped in out of nowhere. I remembered almost every shown character. It did not help me to feel anything. Most of them were assholes anyway. Or just underdevelopment. Naki is a brother of sadistic Jason, he cried a lot after his Aniki died. Meh. The guy who saved girl with freckles almost killed a civillian because he wanted to hit Irimi(girl with a dog/fox mask). He was an asshole. I hate Suzuya so I cheered up for the twins in the previous season. But well they made "them" a monster so I was like: can you all die already? Tatara is a "lost potential" cause. They wasted him once again just for Takizawa antics. Meh. |
| I'm more lost than Little Red Riding Hood in New York!!! Now the action is other localization and finally discovered the Owl identity !!! and the mad crazy doctor that create Ghouls how experiments, finally, and fortunately, died!!! kekeke |
| Good to see this is properly getting shit on. You'd think that Pierrot would learn from their mistake after they had a "decent" first season of Tokyo Ghoul and then fucked it up with Route A. And then a "decent" first season of :re, followed by this shit fest. I actually was calling it ahead of time that this season was going to be horrible. The second they officially announced :re2 was airing with the key visual, they announced that TK was doing the opening theme song. That was the red flag for me right there. When the first bit of info about the show on top of the teaser image is the artist doing the theme song (because unravel was insanely popular), that's not a good sign. No details on an air date, no cast announcements, no teaser vid, nothing. A picture and "HEY GUYS TK IS GONNA DO THE THEME SONG AGAIN! GETS YOU EXCITED RIGHT?!?!" |
FuMomo-kun said: What the hell is this? The timeline feels all messed up! I am really confused even though I have read the manga. Why are they not revealing Mutsuki's gender till now? It's not even supposed to be a secret from the audience. The first season of :re fucked that up too. In the manga after the big Madam fight where Urie accidentally stabs Mutsuki and she hugs him with her Kagune, he says plain and simple in the manga "so you really are a woman Mutsuki". Right then and there we know she's a girl. But the anime cut that line of dialogue out completely took keep it ambiguously for literally no reason. |
| Well, there it is. My first 1 out of 5 vote. Well done! |
| Feel bad for Takizawa. Like many have stated this episode felt all over the place. |
 |
| Holy shit the poll results haha. Good to know not to touch this steaming pile of shit with a 10-foot pole. |
| Woah. Where to start from? Hmm...: Nooo, Hachi-san!! Takizawa is badass as a half-ghoul. And finally Amon returned, after all those small suggestions from the previous episodes. About returns, Naki's back-to-fight moment was great, haha. And even Tsukiyama joined the fight. It seems this battle involves all the most important ghouls from Tokyo. Seriously, this episode was pure action. And I really liked it. No more confusing (for anime-only viewers) plot mysteries that weren't / aren't / won't be explained in the show. Pure action. To be frank, I'm enjoying the fights in this cour. Apart from ghouls vs. humans conflict, I don't know what this anime is all about since the plot was messed up before, leaving viewers with many plotholes. The best thing is just to enjoy the special effects. I read that the plot from the manga is way, way, way more complex. I can understand why many people who read Tokyo Ghoul's manga are angry at :re's anime adaptation. I can't judge, as for I haven't read this manga and I'm not planning to, but if it's true then too bad Tokyo Ghoul's anime suffers from that much of a lost potential. |
