| Like many others on this site, I was someone who read this manga while it was still publishing and experienced the rushed final arc. For a while, I met people who recently read this manga in 2021 and I saw no one have the same complaints that I did which led me to going over this part of the story and reflecting on it. In short, I think this manga received far more backlash then what it deserved. Sure, it had its flaws that were mostly found in the final arc, specifically how some parts of the story that were introduced earlier to be setup as lore and explored later on were seemingly forgotten, etc. Despite this, it shouldn't take away from all the good this manga did. We got an amazing protagonist and antagonist, conclusions for majority of our characters (I will admit, I still believe *some* were rushed/executed poorly), and an overall strong conclusion that I find to be extremely applicable to one's life. I'm not saying to completely disregard the negatives, but if you found this manga to be unsatisfactory because of the direction it was going, give it another try or think it over. It's a lot more beautiful than we think. |
| People have been reading Tokyo Ghoul? It was always one of my favourites (still is) but it kinda seems like the series died and no one ever talks about it anymore. For me, it's been a few years since I've read TG:re in it's entirety but I do remember not liking the final arc that much. It was incredibly rushed and felt really outlandish with some of the stuff that was happening (Kaneki turning into a huge monster for example). A re-read would definitely refresh my memory but I'm not sure if I want to do that (just yet). I just haven't felt the urge to revisit the story as of now but maybe I will somewhen in the future when I'm in the mood again. |

| I only watched the anime but after like two years I remembered the show so instead of rewatching it I tried to read the Manga and made me realize that this was way better than I remembered. I personally never felt like it was rushed its more like straightforward than rush. even tho it has a good score on MAL it still feels like it wasn't liked by many. I started to think if the Anime Adaptation screw it up? |

I have started reading the original manga in 2019, finished it in 2020, started Re right after, and at this moment I m close to finish Re, at the start of final volume and overall my opinion is that Re is still way better than the original, I just liked the characters way more in Re, the prequel just feels like a build up, and the pay off was Re. Never watched the anime on purpose since I heard the manga was better. |

| I skimly noticed hate comments from the ending which I guess are the exaggerated minority. To me, for Tokyo Ghoul as a whole is a great classic. For its constant twists, for the many developments, the mysteries, and especially the characters themselves, including the villains. Unfortunately the ending isn't satisfying since it isn't a better peace, but that's OK. I think its biggest flaws is how there's a fair amount of continued mystery or logic to some characters which I still question till this day and wonder if Ishida ever answered them somewhere. I made a thread about it called Finale Mysteries. |
| i watch the anime until the end it was ok but not amazing... everyone said manga is the best... so in 2023 august i read the manga from tokyo ghoul to tokyo ghoul :re... my experience was amazing such a roller coaster emotion... 9/10 |

Even the writer admit that re was rushed and he didn't know what he was doing and just wanted to finish it as soon as he could.
Original tokyo ghoul was masterpiece but re was just fine with alot plot holes and problems, just tsukyuma and cuculia arcs were great rest of it was meh or trash

| @Zero01guard I don't need to watch the anime to appreciate the OST at all, in fact I have the ost on my phone to listen to at some point. The anime, I might see one day, with very LOW expectations. |
