| I'm not sure how I feel about this episode really, as while I wanted to like it and am intrigued by the changes that have taken place between Root A and this episode, I find myself mostly unsure, as almost all of these "Quinxe" guys are pretty damn annoying, and the only one who isn't (Haise) is mainly because it's so damn obvious what his deal is, but I want to know how he got to where he is now from where he was before (is his identity meant to be a twist, by any chance? because this episode may as well have said in large, flashing letters exactly who he is, for how obvious it is). A shaky start, but I'm interested to see where this goes from here. |
| Like the first episode of Tokyo Ghoul the quality was really nice. I hope this time they can keep the quality in comparison to S1. |
| Meh, rushed episode as always. The pacing is fast, meh, bad start. The opening is better that the last season. 2/5 |

| Don't see what's wrong with rushing since people will complain either way. Just glad to see TG animated again. |
Stay in yesterday 時を止めて |
| Started out fine then turned into obvious low budget mess at the end. |
 |
| Everyone here: OP is better than Root A but I like the unravel better.. OK I GET IT JESUS CALM DOWN ..And I agree with you |

ichii_1 said: Started out fine then turned into obvious low budget mess at the end. LOW BUDGET?? Lol I think yhat the animation, art style, voice acting and soundtracks are great.. obviously not a low budget for this anime.. if you want to see low budget go watch Juuni Taisen :P |
|
| hmm I didn't really like it, but I will keep watching also the animation seems little off |
 |
| I felt it was really rushed. With characters actually having voices, there wouldnt be a debate about if haise is really kaneki or smt else but still showing kaneki in the first episode... I don't know. Also it wont follow the root A it seems. Since hide was in the opening and also saw a missing poster of him but in root A they killed him and body was infront of the ccg so no chance of going "missing". |

| Hahahah tbh I loved it! 6 chapters adapted but it didn't feel that rushed to me. Almost forgot how funny of a character Urie was at the beginning of RE. That finger clutch at the end............. Very good, let's hope that Studio Perriot can keep this going throughout the 12 episodes and eventually season 2 |

Daniel_Naumov said: Obviously his identity is a major mystery to about anyone but Arima and maybe some top tier investigators. It is bound to produce some friction with characters when they get a wind of his real identity. Fair enough, but I meant more in terms of whether it's meant to be a mystery to the audience or not, and if it's played as a massively shocking revelation to the audience when it is eventually revealed? |
| Why tf are there already reviews for this show after one fckn episode |
| I definitely wasn't ready for this! It exceeded all of my expectations! I can't wait for next week's episode! |
| I don't see the point of rushing and "half ass" effort on a well known and hyped show that would bring so much profit to the studio if done well... |
| The closer you get to the light,the greater your shadow becomes. |
| Pretty rushed but with crisp animation and a good cliffhanger. OP and ED aren't the best but when it comes to Tokyo Ghoul nothing can beat Unravel. 64BitRatchet said: From what I've seen, noThis isn't a continuation of Root A right? |
 |
| Sense I'm just a Anime view on this one, only read a few on the manga while I was in Japan, but yea, not much hype on this one for me, so i actually quite enjoyed it, might gonna need some recap of what has happened untill now haha. Quite the episode I'd like to say though ^^ |
| cause MAL is doing there job for once. |
| The one well-animated scene in this episode was when Sasaki released his kagune, and that's only because they needed it to look good in the PVs. I'm gonna keep going just to see if I'll be proven wrong, but judging from this one episode, :Re is gonna be yet another victim by the serial anime rapist, Studio Pierrot. |
"At some point, I stopped hoping." |
| Everyone here mostly saying that the episode was rushed or the opening is good or better than Root A's opening, but they like Unravel more, even though it has already been said. The new OP doesn't beat the first OP in visual appeal, but the song "asphyxia" by Cö shu Nie is absolutely gorgeous, even when compared to Unravel. |
   |
| To hell with this cheap, low-quality, poorly directed bullshit. I'm finally reading the manga. It was like watching a bunch of paper cut-outs, and don't even get me started on how rushed it was. No thanks. The ED song sounds kinda cool if nothing else |

| Was pretty cool, kaneki under a new name i hope they show arima vs kaneki's fight in a flashback later on |
 アニメの幼女を見てるのが楽しいぜ |
| It's been so long since the previous season. I don't know what's going on anymore. What happen in the last eps of root A ? Kaneki is that new guy right ? Using diff name ? |
| Is this one of those shows where cheap and unfamiliar fanbase calls itself fanbase and makes me question humanity? Anyway, the game "Who? How? When?" has officially begun with all the "fans" of the franchise competing. To kick things off it goes traditionally, the first person we meet as a citizen is a ghoul in disguise. How unexpected. In my opinion manga drawings were more decent in presenting Urie's personality. He seems so blank in here to my eyes and overall animation sometimes seemed horrible. Goodness, same cliche twice in an episode. "Hero" Sasaki appearing twice out of nowhere at exactly needed time and slicing the enemy's kagune just at the right time. Probably some coindicence just as the existence of our universe itself. Sure. What I enjoyed is the preview format. Leaving for the next week. |
| For starters, the OP song is MUCH better than Root A's, but Unravel reminds the best OP of this franchise. As for the episode, the action and animation was pretty good, but it did feel rushed in many areas. With 12 episodes, I do worry that future episode will have this same rushed feeling that might effect my enjoyment. For now, it's a good start. =) |
Blank_X said: Looks a bit rushed but it was a decent 1st episode. The producers probably just wanted to hook the viewers in quickly and get their attention right from the start. You've read the manga havent you? It starts off the same way as ep 1 -------------------------------------------------------------- Man oh man, I'v been waiting for this forever. Absolutely love this |
 |
| oh, please... rushed? u serious? u guys are praising season 1, when it had 12 episodes for 144 chapters = 12 chapters per episode. and this one had 6 chapters adapted s1 was bad, this won't be any better, but i'm really happy they skip all the investigators bullshit, 'cause starting the manga from the most boring side ruined it for me completely |

|
| A little rushed, but I enjoyed it. Looking forward to the next episode! |
| I actually think the pacing is kind of good for people who've already read the manga. Anime-only watchers will feel lost, but I think it will make some of them more curious to read the source material. Watching just the anime will not get you all the little details that Ishida provides in his work. I think that the ending was pretty funny, and the still-frame shot of the Quinx in the field of spider lillies looks like it could be used as the cover for an album. |

| A pretty 'eh' starting ep. Pierrot's magnificent pacing already showing up! /s. Can already feel the confusion anime-only watchers are gonna have for this series (or the first episode for that matter). Honestly I just wanna see how they're gonna deal with Furuta in the anime so I'm sticking around purely for that. Interesting to see how much of a fuck-up this season's gonna turn out like in the end. |

| Nice little bit of action to start the episode with. Even within the ccg there are rivalries huh. The mado punch is as deadly as it is sudden. Chie's request sure was odd. The squad is far from united huh. The squad sure was too brash in pursuing torso on their own though. Hmm a solid first episode that did well to introduce the main members of the squad and Haise. The music that played during the last fight scene was also pretty good as well. |

| Whew, good to see the return of some Tokyo Ghoul again. Not a bad first episode in my opinion, I enjoyed it. It sure jumped straight into action fast with minimal character introductions. I'm glad that I'm not a manga reader in this case, lmao. |
