| 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? |

| Whelp Re Season 2 is getting a 10/10 from me, because I got all my wishes in it. Also I can care less about the pacing because I treat it as its own series.  |

| 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). Good episode, |

| I don't understand... why uta is fighting renji? Why donato isn't on the prison? did I miss something? |
| EL PSY KONGROO!!! |
| Only one more episode people. We can somehow make it out alive. |

| After seeing Ayato who appeared out of nowhere I kinda remember something. Where is Takizawa? Is he dead or something, cause I don't see him for a while now. |
| As a manga reader, I got affected by the Amon scene just because it reminded me of how much that hurt in the manga, but other than that.. Yeah easy 2/10 for the season |

asdqua said: After seeing Ayato who appeared out of nowhere I kinda remember something. Where is Takizawa? Is he dead or something, cause I don't see him for a while now. 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. |
| As if I can't hate Tokyo Ghoul any more.......this episode came along |
 |
| 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! IlyessKhalifa said: Studio Pierrot handling 3 episodes this week, Tokyo ghoul :Re,Boruto and Black Clover ,yet they all sucked hard! what kind of animators this studio have! Made me laugh more than it should. What kind of animators? Either lazy or talentless. Maybe both. Heck, they are dropping the ball really hard. |
| 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. |

| What the? That was so fast. 1 more to go. |
| Not a bad episode I guess. 1 more episode. |
 |
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. |
| Well they messed up pretty bad but... not the worst |
| Confused as always, but I have seen worse ep. I am glad there is only 1 ep. left. ^^ |
 |
| Wait, what? What happened to Eto's head? |
| 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:
|
  |
| Man ... Uta's the best, I love his character so much. |
 |
| 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. |
 |
| So was that Eto or that other annoying girl that was recently beheaded |
| I'm Bruneian and I like anime. And Manchester United. And fat cats. |
| I'm glad Uta didn't got finished off by Yomo Rip Eto, didn't expected her beheaded body on that owl Looks like we got one last episode left |
 |
| Wait, is this actually how things happened in the manga in the end as well? If yes, then the ending sucks. |
| Kaneki was taken out so easily. I thought was Kaneki be the last boss or something and That clown protect Kaneki to grown up and be an aggressive monster. Well seems so rushed as always. One more to go I can't enjoy this so far. Hope the ending was good. |
| Kaneki will be the one that solves the root of the problem along with Ayato haven't seen him in a while Clown with their plans again what are they up to now, Did they revive the owl? I was expecting it to be Yoshimura that showed up but looks like the dead body of Eto And another dumbass showed up in front of Kaneki. |
  |
| Hmm, it sucks that the anime skipped a ton of story about the reason these guys have sided with Nimura. They just appeared randomly with him and caused this chaos. I couldn't relate. Also, no action from pretty Itori too. tsk |
