THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE.
----------------------------------------
Damn it, Clown and their plans....seems they still had weapons up in their sleeves.

In the meantime, the episode also reveals of V and their moves. Ayato got some screen time this episode. I almost forgot he exists in this show Heh, even though I'm not a fan of him, what he did this episode does some respect.

Finally we are before the last episode and then we can wait 8 year or so with the hope that one day a studio that can adapt manga, will reboot Tokyo ghoul so we get the Anime the Manga deserves

So much montion blur, shaking camera, and poor animation monents in this show.
Guess Studio Clown blew all they budget on Black Clover Episode 63.
I won't be surpise if the final episode is the same poorly animated shit.

Pacing still shit, can't really fix that this late though.

As far as the episode goes, I was really worried about the fights not being done well enough in this episode, but they turned out pretty solid imo. Donato Vs Amon didn't feel as emotional as it did in the manga, but that might be because I knew what happened.

Uta Vs Yomo is one of the cutest rivalries ever and I love them both. Really liked how that turned out animated, still a little fast imo, but that's the entirety of this show..

With the next episode being the last, I can only hope that they do the final fight well and hopefully in a few years we'll get a remake that doesn't fuck everything. The last few episodes have been pretty good for the most part besides the pacing though, so I'm at least happy that the ending is better than I had originally expected.

Thank god this disaster is almost over.

Also, I'm willing to bet we'll hear Unravel in some capacity in the finale. We've heard it at some point during every season so far to the point that I feel like Pierrot is contractually obligated to include it, so why not do it for the final fight in the final episode of Tokyo Ghoul that will ever be made? Unless, of course, there's a remake.....

Uta vs Renji was underwhelming compared to the manga which is unfortunate cause it was my fav part, but it was still surprsingly good for this adaptations standards.

Well I'm holding my breath for the last fight since the manga treated it so horribly. This series redeems itself a little for me if they have an actual fight instead of the constant off screen crap the manga pulled.

Me, being solely an anime watcher for Tokyo ghoul, had found it to be alrigh, a little lacklustre, but alright.
Felt the same issues, like stupid pacing and weird storyline but, it was going good. That being said, bar the animation 'cause studio Pierrot is great in the consistency of being absolute shite (f**qin' meme review clap that one)

This episode changed that... The premise for Tokyo ghoul has been an interesting one -exploring binary opposition's and discrimination; in the form of ghoul persecution- I loved that.
However, things have become a little monster hunter:
These dragons and owls and shit... The original owl made sense for some reason but the rest felt out of place.
The OP kagune designs eemed amazing, I really gotta see Uta's design in the manga

and naruto-esque with theme of sensory Jutsus and genjutsus, that the elements of ghouls capabilities seems to have gotten lost. I had little issue with them being able to fire projectiles, but this cranks this up a notch too far.

In other cases, yomo renji is the kakashi of Tokyo ghoul... He's just dope. Can't go wrong with him.
Uta, on the the other hand, WTF! You were dope but then you had play the irrelevant villain... He probably had a purpose, but the anime adaptation did not convey that whatsoever. Why?

I just noticed it this episode, but the way they use colours and lights is actually quite bad. Like, in the scene where Kimi and the ghouls were discussing about the dragon, they used a calm twilight-ish colours. It doesn't create the right atmosphere. They should have lit the scene with the red glow of the dragon, and the cold bluish artificial lights in the building.
Most of the other scenes are too bright. It would have been better to have dark and high contrast lighting for most of those.

Itori was supposed to explain about the clowns, but they removed it. Without that explanation, the clowns are just evil characters.

I don't remember powers shooting out of the kagunes in the manga. Did that ever really happen in it?

In the manga (Japanese version), Ayato was supposed to scream "KANEKI, SUSUMEEeee!!!!" Can't believe they cut that part out.

I have to say something good as well about this episode, because I am not digging for things I can hate. The shot where Yomo had his face covered with his hair when he was talking to Uta, his mouth and the skin on his neck moved at the same time. I love it when animators pay attention to those little details.

Such emotional battles and all of them had good back stories behind them! Those Uta tattoos were greatly done, I liked them.

Finally the final battle begins, I hope Furuta wins (wishful thinking).

He should be on a rooftop with a "Certain character" watching the fight right about now.. But I doublt they'll find room to add that in.

This disaster demonstrates one of the primary problems with having such a large cast in such rushed episodes: it's hard to remember who a bunch of people actually are or why they matter, so when they apopear and fight it's hard to even give a damn.

Just one more episode and it's finally over.

Well was not that bad. Everyone is fighting but this time I can recognize most of the characters. Kudos.

Furuta is trollling, but why is Uta following him? Weren`t they friends? Oh yeah they are. No reason for them to fight in this adaptation.

Next week a salvation. End of this nonsense!

Dunno what happened to be honest, but them fighting scenes were decent. xD

I'm glad this show is close to its finale.

Can anybody who read the manga explain one thing to me? What's about these Clowns? They seem to be a big deal and have powerful ghouls in their ranks, yet it was not explained why are they there, what is their goal or whatever. Tag it as a spoiler please, btw.

Thank you for the response! :)

Huh, so more or less their "style" (let's call it like that) was the same as their chaotic acts. I don't get why the creators didn't spend at least one minute explaining directly who were The Clowns, even if it would be only repeating the same words that you wrote above. By that, it could be easier for viewers to watch the show, instead of guessing "who the heck are they and why are they so evil" and such.

Hey! This episode is actually genuinely awesome! The animation is way better than the past few eps and the story is not too out of the place!

That body on that owl was definitely Eto's. She was an SSS ranked dammit!

Now for things that left me confused since this past 2 seasons of Tokyo Ghoul RE never mentioned:

  • Uta and Itori work with the priest???
  • Uta and Renji are friends and Renji don't mind Uta trying to eat him since they're friends???
  • Amon is the priest's son???

It wasn't good but the fights Uta vs Yomo and Donald vs Amon were better than I dared hope. Also, I really like the OST. I have to admit that the music when The Owl appeared as well as the one when Donald died gave me the chills. The soundtrack's probably the only good thing in this series.
