I really reallllly hope this gets redone by another studio or something, it could easily be my favorite. boy, did you read post chapter 63? come back again after you have finished aogiri arc. You don't understand, i'm not saying the Tokyo ghoul manga bores me or the story bores me. I'm saying manga in general I just literally can't read it. I need a soundtrack and animations or my attention just gets lost entirely. That's why I'm hoping this gets redone, because from what I gather from everyone on here this story is crazy and the anime skips a ton of it. |
| I don't really see what everyone's complaining about ... this is why I don't read manga before I watch the series. The manga is always better, just like the book is always better than the movie. I'm looking forward to seeing how they wrap things up, and whether they leave it open to a second cour. |
| Erggg, those sound. Kaneki getting beatan the fuck out of him was sooooo brutal. Damn. That Jason is just plain creepy. With that other guy... I don't wanna know what kind of kinky thing they'll do to Ken :S It look like everyone gathered in the 20th. I think their peaceful life will go apeshit. Angry Touka at the end was cute :3 I was wrong about the kid. I really though he was the other one-eyed. It look like he's a Mado 2.0. That ending with the gourmet was just perfect. I really didn't expected him xD That Banjo wasn't as I expected him though :P |

| Manga > Anime ^ these are my thoughts as I watch an episode of this every week |
 |
| Well, i got to see more of Jason, so i can't complain. I'm betting Kaneki had at least a minor migraine after the bashing he took. Banjo was funny, thinking Kaneki x Rize happened. Hope the humans bring something to the table as well, still don't understand how they will match the ghouls, but it seems like everyone's going to the 11th Ward. Seriously though, that Nico guy is simply... grotesque. It's appearances like these that give me nightmares. I hope he gets killed off soon, and the perfect candidate for that is almost born... |

minomi said: To be honest, this episode was a little confusing... to put it lightly. I know I should have expected this, but this adaption is going so badly... erg For those who haven't read the manga, Kaneki actually knocked Banjou out with a kick and a punch(if I remember correctly, either way kaneki did it). and don't worry, his shining moment is coming... even if I have to look away for a few minutes before it happens ;_; |
 |
TragicGenocider said: So.... how weak was the guy that got knocked out just from Kaneki's little accident headbutt? in the manga it wasn't an accident -_- and Kaneki put a lot of force into his hits. Banjou himself can take a beating though. Manga spoilers below [spoiler] Banjou can't use his kagune and he hasn't really been taught how to fight |
|
| This episode made me cringe despite the fact that I've read the manga, poor Kaneki. Jason makes me uncomfortable .__. I hope they end it at a cliffhanger, that would be awesome :3 |
| Well dang those guys rolled into the coffee shop and gave Kaneki the smack down. and now the rescue party is being sent after him. Great episode!!! |
 |
| What a wonderful army. |
| Jason really has good "presence". That background music and the knuckle cracking and how he is portrayed... looking forward to a bit more of him even though his scenes, especially in this episode, make me cringe. |
| Not bad at all. Surprised the pacing was actually slow. Man Jason's toture to Kaneki was over the top there. I was about to cringe. Well good thing Gourment is back this is going to get good. Sent with Mal Updater |
 |
| I feel like it's going to be a two cour/split cour. Why do I think so? 1)They can't fully finish adapting the Aogiri Arc in two eps. 2)They introduced Akira early, who doesn't become important till AFTER the Aogiri Arc. 4)In the PV trailer, it showed Kaneki owning Jason, which I don't think will be adapted in the next two eps. 4)There has been a good boost in sales of the manga. Also I think they can end it with a BAM on Kaneki's "BOKU WA GHOUL" part, it would be the perfect cliffhanger for the next cour :3 |
| Y'know, it's kinda weird seeing Banjou say that Kaneki is strong when he just accidentally knocks him over with his head. Strange and pointless change imo. Kaneki seems awfully weak in the anime and I seriously wonder if they'll change And they decided to put in some anime original scene with Yamori beating Kaneki up like a punching bag (I think the anime seriously hates Kaneki since they did that with Amon vs Kaneki too...). It makes sense and connects with what happens later but ehh for some reason I felt meh about it. The gore feels like it's been toned up in the anime for some reason. Like Kaneki just stabs Nishiki once and not over 9000 times. There's an anime original scene at the beginning of the first episode with Rize ripping people's guts out (why did they show her butt naked anyways? ._.). And now this. A lot of Juuzo's introduction was skipped but I'm not surprised at this point. Amore~ Tsukiyama returns lol After watching the first episode of the anime, I was just going to read the first 6 chapters since I heard it was semi rushed but then I kinda read the whole thing. Gonna have to say I'm glad I did though... ninjastarforcex said: TheGrandSage23 said: I guess he doesn't understand that Jason would've fucked up anyone in that shop just like Kaneki.. Oh and Kaneki did try to fight back.. Obviously to no avail except irimi and the demon ape are stronger than yamori.... Except that they weren't very busy so Irimi and Devil Ape probably went home already. Meldoy said: I feel like it's going to be a two cour/split cour.

They'll probably end it there or after With the pacing they're going at right now, it seems pretty impossible that they'll end this arc in 12 episodes and Akira's appearance last episode was already a sign of a second cour or season. Mixed feelings about this but it's better than rushing this arc I suppose and the pacing has been better lately. I personally don't know how much the anime has boosted the manga sales but the manga was already fairly popular before the anime came out. It was ranked in the 20's I believe. |

| after last week's slow-paced episode, I was glad to see some action. I don't see this ending in 2 episodes, but we'll find out in 2 weeks. |
| Good episode aside from the fact THEY SKIPPED THE EAR DRUM SCENE I am not happy, that was one of my favorite scenes That extra ken beat down by Yamori was good XD Season 2? I don't see them doing everything maybe a big cliffhanger :O |
 |
| The scene in Anteiku happened so fast... I seriously can't wait... I think the white hair Kaneki is bound to happen. And I thought the Gourmet died already... but he is alive. |

ad stellas super alas angeli. |

| Isayama Hajime should be awarded The Manga with The Highest Inconsistencies of Characters' Appearances. He keeps performing multiple plastic surgeries on those Shingeki No Kyojin characters in a SINGLE chapter. Yes, I've read up to the latest chapter of Shingeki No Kyojin manga. Forced myself to read through the kidsketching chapters after the anime's ended. At least from now on, I only have to go through the hell once a month. Patiently awaiting SNK TV/movie/OVA anime-sequel. The 2015 SNK live-action movie would probably suck. |
| I was empathizing Ken when he is beaten by Yamori. I don't want that. Hello again, Tsukiyama. NO KIDDING. |
| The world shall know the truth soon. |
| If they leave it on a cliffhanger... |
My Candies:     |
| Boring, just like last week. I liked Suzuya, pretty good voice acting there. The fight scene in the coffee shop was perhaps the worst in the entire anime. Zero tension. I'll probably check the manga when the show ends, maybe it's one of those cases like Deadman Wonderland where the anime is average at best but the manga kicks ass. For now Tokyo Ghoul makes the anime adaptation of DW look perfect, tho. |
 |
| Kaneki always has to be on the receiving end of a beat down huh? :/ "NO KIDDING" haha. Got a good laugh from Tsukiyama. |
"May those who accept their fate be granted happiness." "May those who defy their fate be granted glory." |
| Hah, Light is back. And now he's purple. |
| Damn that censoring! |
| Jason beating up Kaneki was kinda boring -.- Other than that, the episode was not bad... And at first I thought Juuzou was a ghoul...xD But he looks kinda creepy and kinda cool. ^-^ |
 |
| This episode probably had the best pacing since episode 1, but that doesn't mean dick when their are only 2 episodes left and the rest is going to be SEVERELY rushed. Honestly, I cant even fathom how in 2 episodes they're going to fit in: I honestly don't see it happening. Cliffhanger or not, there's no way this isn't going to be more butchered than all other episodes combined. It's honestly a real shame because it's not like Studio Pierrot wasn't given masterpiece source material to work with. Literally all they had to do was animate it and color in the lines. If I'm being honest I'd rather take the rushed arc, since if this awful adaptation sees a sequel, it wont be a second cour it'll be second season entirely. Which means it wouldn't be out for like a year + probably. There's no good spot to leave it at a cliffhanger for that long. Barion-Zara said: Dat ending XD "Amore" lol and he thinks Kaneki is his best friend ROFL Good ep. I'm liking how they're not rushing anything that much. Ofc this means we won't get to the absolutely epic parts but as long as it's being adapted quite well I don't mind a cliffhanger end :3 not rushing anything? We must not be watching the same show then. MarikGr said: i sense a "Mahou sensou" ending :| fucking Christ please no. goddamn. |
| At least for this episode, I felt that they didn't stray from the manga too much. They did take out the part where Juuzou killed the ghouls (the ones he called pigs), which was a little sad. But yeah, like everyone else, I'm a little worried about how they might end the arc. Overall, this episode was hopeful, but we'll see how they proceed. |
| Good episode. They covered a bunch of things but it didn't feel fast-paced. aaand Tsukiyama is back :D |
| Just 2 more episodes left! Wtf! I hope it has a second season D: |
 |
| No kidding. |
| Everything was fine except... WTF was that knockout? I mean just a headbutt "accidently" to banjo. Manga version was waaay better. |

| So, within 10 episodes they have already cover up to 50's chapter No wonder this adaptation is so shitty |

Raro said: Coralira said: Some parts of this episode were nice.. Other parts were just.. What.. Jason bashing Kaneki up just dragged on and on... It was insane.. The blood splatters and everything, and yet Kaneki is in one piece. Wtf. But that scene where Ayato and Touka fought looked awesome. Also Banjou was way more of a dick than the manga when he first appeared. Which is kind of unessesary. Tsukiyama though, his "no kidding" made me crack up. Yeah, I agree with that being weird. He was getting so injured, but didn't really look like it. Banjou seems alright. Haven't read the manga, but he wasn't that bad. |
johnny_g said: What's the OST's name in the end when Touka and the others refuse to stay inactive and decide to help Kaneki? Don't know if it has a name but it's a OST by Yutaka Yamada. You should find it if you search something like Tokyo Ghoul OST and it's not the one called Symphony Brxck said: No kidding. I'm feeling some deja vu right now... "Move!" |

Urek said: i am seriously worried how they are going to end this arc... seriously, either it will be rushed as fk, completly ruining it, or it will end at one of the biggest cliffhanger ever... I would prefer the latter...I would hate it if they rush this epic arc.. Am I too much of a dreamer to hope for extra EPs? >.< |
 It all ends when the higurashi cry. |
| Gourmet is back I've been wondering where is he !!? |
| What was done to Kaneki was the definition of brutal. Aogiri tree might have some plans for Kaneki since he reminds them of Rize. That Tsukiyama weirdo returned, surprisingly. |
