| Man that op is bleh. It feels more like an ed than an op. Overall I liked the ep. I hope they explain why Kaneki joined Aogiri. |

| Well, I'm excited to see how this plays out since it's gonna be completely different from the manga. Also I didn't care for the opening, but the ending is great. |
| Awesome ep. He should have at least took Hinami chaaan though. Yeah. the OP wasn't to my liking at all. |

| Shit Opening but okay episode. It was pretty much what i expected with the anime original route. INB4 Kaneki dies and doesn't come back at the end. |
| What happened to half killing Ayato?! Wish they had a better OP. The plot twist seems interesting, he totally became an anti-hero. |
| the 1st episode was really good!loved it! |
| The OP is good it just doesn't fit in, atleast for now. Overall a nice episode, looking forward to the next. |
| . |
| Pretty decent episode. The OP is fucking boring, but the ED is great. Hopefully, my Ayato gets more screen time. I'm looking forward to the future fights. Hopefully they'll be intense & epic. |

Hopefully they'll be intense & epic. Yeah now that I think about it, Ayato will probably get more screen time compared to the manga. Hmmm this'll be interesting. |

RyuPeter said: DISAPPOINTED! Nothing like the manga... where Kaneki broke half of the Ayato bones... Everyone who read the manga will feel the pain of this episode... Anyone who read the manga is just happy for the new storyline. I wouldn't want Pierrot to ruin the original storyline anyway, as they did with season 1. |

| I liked this 1st episode, the OP wasn't as good as the 1st seasons, It seems like Tokyo Ghoul √A wont be following the manga but this is interesting as well as now I don't know what's going to happen |
 |
| ed sucks, op more sucks, none of them beats unravel, for now |
 悲しい… 悲しいわ… 今日のこと、「お月さま」にも教えてあげないと。 あなたも… 私 “たち” の中に… 取り込んであげる。 |
| Not sure what to think of the op,but boy am i the happiest fanboy right now. |
 |
| I don't like the OP.... unravel was MUCHHHHHH better ED is pretty good though I wish he returned to anteiku Kaneki's white hair makes him hotter and cooler XD XD XD |
| Awesome episode even if it isn't following the manga. |

| Meh, nothing exciting happened, felt kinda slow. Wish it would be more focused on specific characters, this storytelling feels a little bit weird to me. |
 |
| dude, the opening is TRASH. nude kaneki is fine but... nude kaneki WHOLE TIME? nope, the song itself is mediocre and the lyrics are shit. nice battle, no censorship, kaneki vs ayato battle and conversation disturbed by noro leaving cliffhanger of ayato reason and goal joining aogiri, i bet kaneki will vs ayato again in the future when kaneki betray aogiri and the anatomy lesson by kaneki-sensei will come later + tsundere ayato arata kakuja look badass as ever. and kaneki looks too emo in the second half :p anyway, KANEKI X ETO PLEASE! <3 |

(not that the first season followed it 100%) i read the manga and just wanna know if im wasting my time. it doesn't follow the manga.but it could still be considered canon and actually seems better than the mangas story. No no no no no i am sorry but no not better than the manga's story. |
 |
GinMagi said: Yes it will be explained unless Perriot plans to butcher up Ishida's original storyline too.Honestly will it ever even be explained why he join Aogiri? |
 |
| So how's the censorship this time? |
| I hope they are going to do a proper OP, i like the style though. Kaneki do not join Aogiri (」ﾟﾛﾟ)｣ You finally have something great going and now you are just going to throw it away... got damn it what a start. |
| As usual the majority of the manga fans are going to bitch and whine because everything isn't exactly panel for fucking panel, seriously what's the fucking point of bitching and crying so much like this every time a new anime adaptation comes out? When has an anime ever adapted a manga/LN exactly the way it's presented in the source material? The answer is never, it can't happen. It's two different mediums. STFU already. Anywho. For those crying about this new root, and whether it is or is not canon, have you been paying attention at all? This is the root the author wanted to take originally, this is the way it should have been. Joining Aogiri makes perfect sense after the torture/transformation, he's not the same person anymore. Maybe he has his reasons, I can almost be 100% sure he has his reasons and that we'll learn them as the season progresses. Moving on. This episode was good, felt a little rushed in a couple of places but otherwise it was good. I loved the "shut up and listen. I'm talking" bit, that was golden. Looking forward to seeing where the author wanted this root to go, it can't be any worse than last season. |
| Odds are I'm not going to find my way back to a thread after my first post, it happens on occasion but not often. So, if I say something that offends you and you feel the need to force your opinion on me because obviously everyone should have your opinion or none at all, feel free to post it in the thread that I'll probably never see again. However, if you are interested in intelligent discourse, feel free to message me. |
| Yes the openning wasn't good as the first but it was still ok. Nice visuals and an ok song. The ending ( not the final scene OST ) was pretty darn good both visualy and songwise. The episode was pretty good. Nothing that will pull you out of the chair but a nice return to the series. 7-8 out of 10 i would say =) |

| Hmmm now that I think about it, no censors :D. |
Xway101 ~By me~ |
| So this is what they meant with "√A" aka Route A, Original route. Separating the manga from the anime. I like this. |
 |
| dammit I have to wait til Friday night to watch this -_- I hope the original plot is just as promising as the manga's |
Kerozinn said: Chelizzle said: Mhm episode was okay,I guess?Nothing really great imo. Best thing is the new ED. worst thing is the new OP. its a desaster. *Disaster |
Kerozinn said: didnt watch it yet but does this even follow the manga ? (not that the first season followed it 100%) i read the manga and just wanna know if im wasting my time. Well it's only just started so I can't really tell but it feels more faster paced then the manga so far with more fighting less talking. It so far has followed it but I felt the Kaneki vs Ayato fight was more gruesome in the manga. |
| Despite everyone hating on the new opening, I really don't mind it. Now the episode was good, damn enjoyable, though gotta say, anime only watchers,read the manga. Though this is a original story, it's really fun, not only because people can't spoil you, 'cause you don't know what might happen XD, but it also seems like a reversed story from the manga. I have no idea what I'm talking about. |
| I really wanted to see kaneki breaking the bones of tosaka's bro. They reduced the badass moments of kaneki sad and Opening song IS SHIT! Its like random tunes are beating together, they should have kept the original opening. It only showed kaneki in the whole opening being raped by rize's hand, overall the plot was good. I like it, where this is going, I hope it won't end same as Akame ga kill! |
 |
| Even though it was announced that they'd be straying away from the manga, I am still disappointed. I hoped that at least they'd end this raid properly and then go into filler. They skipped such an awesome scene (those who read the manga know what I mean) The opening also sucks. But at least I'm interested in seeing how this is gonna go. Seeing Kaneki and Eto interact could be very interesting. I just hope that at some point they'll explain why he chose to join aogiri, and that at least some awesome content from the manga makes a return in this one way or another. Looking forward to next weeks episode. |
| 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. |

| yooooooooooooooo this really good atmosphere, music, animation op is fitting, ed was great. what the hell happend. how do you go from the mess of the first season to this i went into this expecting myself to rant about it but i got nothing. well one thing kaneki joining aogiri just like this is weird but i mean this was episode 1 cannot expect things to get explained before they even happend |

| they're going anime-original already? can't say i like it though. :/ the OP/ED are inferior to S1's too. |
