I haven't read it, but it would be hard to be much worse than the anime adaptation. Yes, I'm saying that the show is bad. Root A and the two seasons of Tokyo Ghoul Re are all generally considered worse than the first season. (Granted I haven't watched Tokyo Ghoul Re) |

| lol MANGA. the anime adaption is awful well, root A and tokyo ghoul re 2nd season are awful, the rest are decent to good |
| One of the worst adaptations in history... The series can be summarized like so... Season 1: Ah yah know it's really fast paced and misses some shit but it ain't that bad... Season 2: Hey wait... What're you doing?... I don't like this... Season 3: Please stop this... No... Oh god what's happening Season 4: -Static noises- ***** Save yourself the trouble, cringe and physical pain... Just read it... It's absolutely amazing~ |

| Manga is 99.9% always better than anime |
| First season is decent, second season changed A LOT of the original manga. So if you liked the first season, but the second not so much, you might still want to check the manga. Tokyo ghoul manga, i liked it, not the greatest out there, but i quite enjoyed it. Tokyo ghoul re was good until halfway through, i was into it, cause i had just finished the first one, but the second half i felt like i was forcing myself to finish. I did not like the last arc of tokyo ghoul re (manga), but i have not watched the anime, i felt like had already wasted too much time on this. |
| I haven't seen :Re yet, but I became a believer of the manga gospel after about chapter 85. I think what Tokyo Ghoul fundamentally suffers from is that each season needed just a few more episodes to spell out much needed context. Making each season 14-18 episodes would have gone a much longer way in delivering the story as it should have been. Of course, anime seldom deviates from seasonal episode counts (12-13, 24-26, 48-52, etc), so perhaps asking for the necessary episodes over a status quo business model is the ultimate pipe dream. |

| S1 was Good But It Went to Shiy afterwards. The Manga is Better. |
  愛がなければ、見えない。 Without Love, the truth cannot be seen. |
| the manga is definitely better! i havent read re but the original manga is great! i read it after i watched season 1 & root a and i really really liked it. it covers way more than the anime, better pacing, better explained plot, etc. havent read re, but i do recommend the original manga |
  placeholder text |
| Season One of Tokyo Ghoul is the only good season. I haven't seen Re: yet, however, I've seen pretty much only negative reviews from it. Save yourself the time and watch Parasyte instead of the second season. It has a similar premise, but has a far better execution. |
 |
| Tokyo Ghoul's anime has like 30% of the manga contents. |
 |
| Manga is definitely better especially after season1...as s1 almost stays faithful to the manga but root a really made a lotta changes to the original story due to which once you start re it fells totally disconnected. Manga is more in depth while anime feels rushed. So yeah manga>anime |
 |
| The manga is slightly better but honestly it gets so much worse after the sequel came out. The anime becomes even worse after the first season soooo manga wins. |
 |
| manga, anime is a terrible crap https://i.imgur.com/SiRMcII.jpg |

i have read the manga and watched all the Tokyo Ghoul anime adaptions, i can tell you that the manga tells a better story than the anime does. Even the characters are well potrayed through the manga than the anime. Tbh i really dislike the Tokyo Ghoul adaptation and didn't quite enjoy it at all (only the first season LMAO). MANGA 100% BETTER THAN THE ADAPTATIONS. |
 |
| The anime had potential to be good. It only concerned itself with presenting you the overall story instead of going in deep. If you liked the anime, then switch to the manga and finish the story. The final story arc was very underwhelming given its "buildup" (or lack thereof), so it doesn't matter if you choose to go with the anime or manga, lol. It's going to be the same thing. However, the manga does a much better job at explaining the powers and backstories of the characters, so may be something to keep a lookout for if you liked the characters. |
| A question with an obvious answer. Manga all the way. They completely butchered the anime adaptation. |
 |
| The manga is WAYYYYYY better just start reading manga after s1 |
 |
| manga definitely but i also love me some good action visuals or animation. |
 |
| I watched the anime, and after the first season stuff gets confusing, and just bad, so I assume the manga is better, also that's what everyone keeps saying. |
nickhartung said: Idk where else to put this but is Tokyo ghoul better as an anime or manga? I’ve watched all 12 episodes and I’m starting Root A, but I want to know if the manga is worth reading after? Any thoughts? Thanks! Manga is a far lot better, especially because this is seinen manga which more focused on Kaneki psychological than battle action like shonen. |
 |
| Both are bad. Manga loses its way on half and the ending is rushed like the anime as there was so many plotholes assupulled in last chapter. You also need to explain the edgyness + incomprehensible pages during the fight on most chapter. Anime only good on first season after that, no sane person would actually rate it more than 7 and TGre should way below 5. |
| The manga is better, providing more development for most of its characters cause the arcs are there, a lot of the franchise mysteries are explained there, which you won't find in the anime, which either alters or skips its storyline to the point the anime and manga are like two different stories. |
| Silently waiting for WW3 to come and kill everyone while I die smoking weed and drinking coke 🚬👌 |
| manga is 1000x better than the anime. the first season is okay at being consistent with the flow of the story but still leaves out a lot of important plot points and events. second season is completely anime-only and is p shit and then there's :re. i'd honestly rather have another root a than whatever this joke was. it was an absolute shit show. both manga are two of my favorites and if you want the actual story of ken kaneki, read the manga. you won't regret it. however the last arc of :re is really rushed but it's still a good story. |

| Read the Tokyo Ghoul manga, it's amazing |
| tokyo ghoul manga had an amazing story and amazing philosophy,while the anime was just about hype and fights,please read the manga while listening to the soundtrack |
