| I liked this ep too. I liked that they take time to show people's feelings after the fight and Kaneki's parting. I liked the way how peaceful and simple the life in Anteiku were portrayed to be, the polar opposite of the life in Aogiri. I just wished all the time to see more Aogiri and Kaneki, but the little I saw of them were really striking and exciting. Maybe at the next ep... |

So many other one eyed ghouls in Aogiri. Z4k said: Tres_Bandidas said: I wonder if Akira is a ghoul herself? Uhhhh she is Mado's daughter. You know...the mad guy in season 1 who was totally human. Lol @ this. |

| Not much happened here, but I had the clear feeling that THIS is where season 2 should have begun. It was clear that this episode was setting up a ton of plot threads for the rest of the series to work with. It'll be interesting to see where those plot threads go, especially if we see more of those Aogiri missions that Kaneki is involved in. |
| Akira is seems like a very interesting character seems like she likes to keep to herself. I loled when she was like no dinner I don't eat after 21:00 see ya and Amon was like WTF. I also liked the pacing better than S1 so far. I loved the new ED arts very nicely done hopefully someone will put them on tumblr. |
 |
| 'Bout damn time Akira was properly introduced. More Hinami is always welcomed. Really looking forward to the ending illustrations now if they're gonna be changing. |
    |
| Pretty good episode. I was hoping to see more of Kaneki though. Hopefully we'll see more of him next week :P |
| After watching the ED remember immediately this : *Several spoilers from Tokyo Ghoul:re* |
| THE ARIMA TEASERS THOUGH... I'm really enjoying how they're directing this season in comparison to the first. These first 2 episodes already have easily hooked me more than any of the first 11 episodes of season 1 that was a massive rush-fest. Very surprised to see what Eto did at the end. Though, the only thing I don't like so far and hope doesn't become a massive problem is the lack of monologues from Kaneki. The one good thing about the first season was that we were always in the head of the main character Kaneki but if season two is going to keep how he's feeling when put under different situations a mystery then it'll get bland quickly. Last thing to talk about, THE TWINS. (Manga spoilers incoming, read at your own risk) |
| No action in this episode, but it's still cool. Expecting some action in the next one. Still feel sad for Touka :( |
 |
| Yes. Just yes. So excited to see more Kaneki action and Akira too |
 |
| A little bit slow paced this time but still good^^ Also that song before the ED *-* What is it called? |
Fuck Signatures... and irony  |
| Amon just standing there was lol. Akira being Amon's partner, wonder what sort of style would occur in battle for the two. Kaneki being Ayato's partner, really looking forward to more Aogiri action! Hinami wearing her gift already ^^ Didn't think that there would be this much about the investigators and Anteiku's side. Seeing Eto's interest in Kaneki, more Aogiri please! |
 |
| They made Eto into a slender beauty :( Suzuya's way of talking pisses me off :( Amon <3 qetou said: Well season 2 is much better than season1 so far. NO :( The only good thing so far is the art in the ed song. Papa Arima looking good :) |
 |
| It was good info dump episode |
| I already love Akira, it seems like we have a lot in common. They better give her and my little sweetheart Hinami lots of screentime in the future and less to mister White-haired idiot and miss Pseudo-tsundere |

| dis gunna be gud |
 |
| Did it already explain why Kaneki joined Aogiri??? cause i seemed to be lacking that info |
| Shirayuki= Most Perfect Female MC ever |
| Those lips... |
| Pretty ok episode. Not very fond of CCG side that much. I want to see more of those Aogiri missions. |
 Xway101 ~By me~ |
| Eto's lips, mmm... Buildup episode this week. Akira gets introduced, but Arima has yet to make his arrival. |
 |

 |
| First of all I've gotta say this.... THAT ARIMA TEASER THOUGH!!! Honestly this is already better than the first season now that the pacing is handled better. It was a good buildup episode with a lot of foreshadowing and information shown. I didn't expect to see the battle between owl and CCG that happened 10 years ago. The introduction of Akira was done really well and same goes to her interactions with Amon and Seidou. Too bad Amon got rejected lol. Overall most of the episode covered some of the information that was missed out in the first season but there's a lot still remaining for them to cover. Loved the ost at the end and the ending arts done by Ishida. 5/5 Btw Eto's lips though... |
| focus on the investiagtors this week. mado's daughter huh. interesting kaneki remains a mystery |
| I feel like this 1 episode helped me understand more about the wards compared to how season 1 tried to explain them. Also, for some odd reason I thought 1 eyed ghouls were more rare than they currently are (saw 2 more ghouls that seemed to be some twins at the end each with 1 eye). Other than that, I like the pacing in this season. Everything seems to be flowing pretty well compared to season 1. |
| I was waiting for Kaneki the whole episode. My experience would've been better if I just kept a fresh mind. |
 |
| Already love Amon's new partner. OMG @ the ED scene : 0 |
Barrian14 said: I'm not enjoying this season so far. I think that the pacing is off and there is a lot of fat to be trimmed. There are boring being introduced left right and centre and the show hasn't given me a reason to be interested yet. Lol if you're watching Tokyo ghoul just for the action scenes then I'd advise you to drop this right now since there will be more boring episodes like this. Those boring characters are part of the plot and they were needed to be introduced. |
| Even though this episode was pure build up and introductions I still liked it Nice shoutout to The One Eyed Owl vs Arima in the beginning (That was badass) and seeing all of Mado ad Shinohara and those when they were young was cool ;3 Touka wanting to go to Kaneki, Hide and Nishiki's college is kawaii xD I hope she gets in :) One thing I will say is that it's interesting how they're keeping some things that happened in the manga like Hide working at the CCG as an errand boy, Akira's (Muh waifu) introduction was the same and Suzuya's weirdness (Which is awesome btw) Dem smiles by Eto though <3333333333 Can't wait to see what Kaneki and Ayato are up to EDIT: Forgot to mention that beautiful track at the end of the episode.....The OST for S2 is sooooooo good |

Until later probably. |
Xway101 ~By me~ |
| I liked the ending scene the best. I'm also really happy they finally seem to have found a decent pacing for the series. They included a lot of scenes of which I was sure they'd leave out. I'm pleasantly surprised. I'm also really happy that they are giving my Eto-chan a lot of screen time. And different art by Ishida for each episode is really nice. |

| So they're at least keeping some content from the manga in huh? It's pretty hard not to compare it to the manga, but I do want to see more Aogiri stuff. It is pretty good after all~ |
| For those who seek perfection, there can be no rest on this side of the grave. Hope is the first step on the road to disappointment. |
| Really good episode, albeit slower. The season isn't diverging as far from the manga as I thought it would, at least for now. All the CCG scenes were pulled straight from the chapters and the stuff with Akira was pretty spot on. And that ending! Seriously thought they were going to reveal Eto's identity for a sec... What a teaser haha. |
| Another build up episode, presenting new characters and more info of what coming next. not bad 3.5/5 . |
 |
| The pace slowed down, but still very enjoyable episode with some new characters. |
 |
| Great episode.....I wanted more Kaneki screen wise just because he's badass...... Great ost near the end. XD |
 |
| What was that song called Near the end, before the ED? |
 |
| Good episode with chunks of some manga chapters and some original scènes. Not that bad. Most of the episode was straight from the manga. Only the scénes in the coffee shop, the scénes from kaneki and the ending were original. Not a bad start for this season so far |

| I was a bit sceptical whether I'm gonna like this as they're not following the manga, but this episode was really good. I'm liking it more. I'm really pleased there was no action (not really) but the episode was still interesting. We caught up with some characters .. I liked Kaneki making coffee. Sort of made me feel bad for him, I wonder what his real intentions for joining Aogiri are.. |

| How dare Akira disrespect glorious pimpmaster Amon |
