Loved the introduction of new characters. It'll be interesting once the 2 briefcase guys and the main characters meet.

I agree, this anime is one of best I've seen thus far this year.

A mysterious dude in a purple suit appears. Wonder who he could be. On another note, why so tsundere toka chan?

Tsukiyama at this point? I did not remember that part.

Still seeing Uta was fun, he was definitely more lively than I first remember. Takahiro Sakurai does match him '-'

Seeing Mado and Amon together, yeap Amon was silent like that indeed.

Though it seems Jason is more participative here eh?

Oh well I like the opening.

This was better than last week's episode, it had some interesting scenes.

The pace they're going at makes me think this show will have 24-26 episode.

I couldn't get over the censoring in this episode, what's the point? As someone who has read the manga I can tell you that they've already skipped a lot of material that has added to character development and the merging of arcs isn't something I particularly enjoy.

I suppose if one hasn't read the manga, this will appear to be somewhat of an intriguing watch, but to me it's just a butchery of the source material.

Less censoring, yet still censored. But the show must go on!
Hopefully they'll explain the first scene a bit more some time soon.

So many characters introduced...
I like Yomo and Uta; they're pretty cool.
Mado and Amon are causing some trouble 'cause they represent CCG.
Hinami's pretty cute.
There's also that guy in the end. He has this type of aura that makes me think I might like him or hate him.

But anyway...
Kaneki's getting a mask while Touka is still a beautiful badass! (^_^)
I’m always searching for something, for someone. This feeling has possessed me I think, from that day… That day when the stars came falling.

Uta gives this familiar vibe to me, not sure if it's the seiyuu or something else. Am I the only one who isn't pissed off at the main character? I think he's perfectly normal. And more human than all those typical heroic badasses out there.

He's coping with the thing quite well, feels abit 'realistic'. I like him.

But somehow I get a feel this is rushed? I haven't read the manga but some parts don't feel 'right'.

Looking forward for the next episode though.

Definitely better than the previous episode due to the immense censoring, but it looks like episodes with more gruesome battles will have more censoring at this stage :) Story is progressing nicely for now.

Amazing episode as always :D

So they really named that guy with wrench "Jason" as in the mask killer in the Friday the 13th movies?? :P

I have a feeling the "coffee" that the manager makes are made of humans like the ones that died from Suicide.

Yomo looks like Kuze from Ghost in the Shell 2nd GiG. Same white hair and all.

He seems to pray for the dead since their about to devour them.

Uta looks creepy as hell, but he's cool that he's a mask design maker ^^

The investigators are getting close to their district!

The version i saw Hinami eating the corpse was a black shaded on instead of obvious censored pixels.

Touka can be pretty tsundere, but i know she has a kind heart :)

Can't wait for the next episode!!

Not sure how I feel about this episode they changed a lot of things around, way too many characters introduced too early. Hopefully they wont deter too much from the manga but I'm starting to have some serious doubts.

They're changing a lot. From the official Synopsi, they're inter-weaving Hanami's and the Gouremet's arcs together.

And cramming in a bunch of filler as well.

-------

Ugh....not sure how i feel about their messing around with the character development. Especially Kaneki. It's amazing how a couple altered scenes and a few bits of deleted dialog can Shinjify a strong MC.

It's gonna make the later stuff seem like an asspull unless they're going to completely neuter Whitey as well.

Welp. That censoring thought -_-.

Very nice pacing and build-up/progression episode.

Also, I hope Kaneki stops freaking out/overreacting everytime he sees something ghoul related or it will be really annoying.

Oh, Miyano Mamoru voicing the new character in red suit at the end.. Been hearing a lot of his voice this season which is a good thing!

Censor still a let down but this is getting interesting already. I like Uta's character design. I hope there is more interesting characters to come.

This episode was pretty nice and laid back compared to the last 2~
I like it!
The gourmet guy showed up soooooo FAST. holy cow. I really wish this wasn't just 12 episodes.
Also, does anyone know who did the ending art? Its extremely beautiful! I felt like the original manga artist did it since he's also a painter, and I can also see some similarities. but i'm not too sure since the ending art is more refined and isn't as messy as the manga art paintings(its not bad though, i adore his art!)
Does anyone know who drew it?

Touka? Sorry, from what I've read, she's listed as an MC for a reason.

I don't know the names, I didn't read the manga.

So I read the comments... The fandom is really weird. They want to see some drawing of blood and human organs...? Does it really make you happy? I didn't even notice any censorship... And even if they draw it or not I will not enjoy it more or less, it would be still the same.

And also, are there people who enjoy the plot? I think it's still to early to say if the plot is good or nnot because it still doesn't make to want to see more plot development.

I honestly don't know how you don't notice the censorship, and I'm saying this as a guy that isn't overly bothered by it. Also, so far I would say that, instead of the plot, what is most interesting is how Kaneki is coming to terms with being a ghoul.

Probably the way she treats Kaneki, I guess. That kind of rough treatment tends to rub people the wrong way, it seems. She's pretty cool to me, though. She provides a nice counterpoint to the somewhat more "gentle" Kaneki.

Pretty good episode. It was nice seeing Kaneki trying and making an effort to become more of a ghoul. Also lots of interesting characters were introduced. Uta seems like a cool fellow, a passionate one at that especially when it comes to his mask making. Hinami was so cute and it was nice that Kaneki offered to teach her. Those two people from Ccg didn't waste anytime to search for the ghouls, definitely one for Kaneki to watch out for. Overall, can't wait to learn more about them and of course seeing that completed mask.

Hmm.. The masks serve to hide one's identity from the doves, but wouldn't wearing the same mask make is easy to identify one anyway?

I been thinking, can't they maybe remove and replace the organs from the ghoul inside him from a human so he can return to normal?..

I'm really waiting for the main character to become a bad ass, seriously. Takes time I suppose.

Anyway, they're so merciful eating suicide victims instead. I wonder if the taste of humans differ according to their age. But, I digress.

I liked this episode a lot better than episodes 1 and 2. I hope this show continues to get better. The first 2 episodes were kinda bad imo :p

I wonder why Touka is so hostile towards Kaneki though...

And the part when Touka said that she'd kill Hide right on the spot if he found out that they were ghouls...Foreshadowing, possibly?
