| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- Ooh, we're getting right into the action this episode. Ghoul action! The coloring of the scenes were a bit dark so that made it a bit hard to watch but meh, it's Tokyo Ghoul so I expected it. Speaking of Sasaki, seems like he's going through some breakdown after recalling some memories. Seems like a buildup episode. Glad to see more familiar faces like Arima come back and getting some actual lines this episode though. Saiko's role in this series already amuses me with her personality lul Touka also makes an appearance! |
 |
| Well,the pacing definitely improved,decent episode. Looking forward to the Auction Mopping-up Operation arc. We should hit it up the episode after the next or the one after that. |
One Piece episode 914 & 915 & 1027 were a mistake and 957 brought the salvation - FMmatron |
| Direction and pacing were ok. Was hoping for more to make up for the rush job last week, but whatever.... |
 |
| Haise sure had a lot of power that he was hiding and even more so when he gets serious. To think that Akira had to shoot him with a rifle to subdue him though. Akira's instructions for Haise sure were cruel ones. So Haise has both as his mentors Akira and Arima huh. Its actually funny seeing Arima behave like a parent though. This episode sure had a lot of familar faces showing up first Ayato then Touka. A nice slow paced episode that reminded me of the calm before the storm. |

| We get to see Saiko for a bit. And Haise entering the coffee shop :re and unexpected meeting with Touka ^_^ I can't wait another week damnit! "I thought to myself.. How can anyone be as pretty as her"  |

| I loved the coffee shop scene :') They skipped Haise's reaction in his room to Urie calling him a ghoul which kinda sucks and they didn't do the chin scratch when he said he was happy with his pretend life but other than that it was a very nice episode, hopefully the rumors of it being a 24ep show are true because they'll have to ramp up the pacing like ep1 to get to the Rosewald arc if it isn't and that will suck |
| Gotta see how Touka x Kaneki progresses |
| I'm glad Furuta appeared - sadly they didn't add his cameo, where Touka ran into him. |
| Since they did 3 chapters for this one, I have hope that Tokyo Ghoul:re will be 3 seasons with 12 episodes. The manga is really big, so if they don't rush it, it's definitely possible ^^ |
 |
And why does Ayato look like Sasuke (lol) |
| Can anyone identify the music from the last scene (When Haise enters coffee shop :re and meets with Touka) ? |
| Pacing was too fast again, but seeing as it's only 12 episodes, I'll look past it. The lack of details in small things is starting to bother me (ie Haise putting his hand on his chin) etc |
 |
| sigh, still not dyed hair touka. well, the pacing is good now, and hey - it's furuta-kun! what a lovely lad but a shame they're showing just a small fragment of urie's inner voice, it builds up no depth to the character and no sympathy either |

| Pacing was better this episode but still have some issues. Pretty decent buildup episode. That coffee shop scene was bittersweet to say the least. |
| I really loved this episode, amazing ghoul fight with the kagune animation and everything. The art style is simply beautiful but how Touka was walking in slow motion made me cringe a bit to be honest heh... But overall a great episode for this series, I thought it will be like Root A but the expectations for this series is quite well for now. |
Oh my god I'm so fast, so fast and so fat |
| The nostalgia, i was wondering why the coffee shop looked so familiar and then i saw Touka |
| Yes No Maybe |

The lack of details in small things is starting to bother me (ie Haise putting his hand on his chin) etc Me too, but remember they literally can't do that even if they wanted to, given the fact that Root A never established the little details/character traits that the manga established (Root A never adapted Touka's and Hide's meeting where the chin thing was revealed), so only the manga readers would get stuff like that anyway. Probably the reason why they felt there was no need to put them in now (even if it adds more character and a double meaning to the scenes). They did. It was done in the second or third episode when Nishiki takes Touka to his University. |
| A hint of Kaneki (Sasaki)'s old bad ass side. He's too lenient on his squad though. Ahhhhhh, finally Touka is here! |
| Lmao @ Nishio's kick barrage and Haise's slap, so fuckin bad xDD This was done so much better in the manga, Pierrot ain't getting their shit together any time soon. |
"At some point, I stopped hoping." |
| It was a nice episode I haven't read the manga so I won't understand if it's 3 chapter or 6 chapter this episode was much more calm Touka giving that smile and kaneki seeing her through haise I feel like T_T |

Well, then there's really no excuse for the cutting of the details then, huh? It'd make no sense if they added the chin scene if the part where Haise cried already got cut off. |
 I loved this part. |

If you don't want to be with someone, please just go ahead and end it before you even think about looking for that someone else. Don't wait and find that person in order to line it up first and then just move from one relationship to the next without even pausing. I honestly don't understand how people can be heartless enough to cheat on someone. |
| Could someone explain to me why Kaneki is inside/is that new dude |
| Pretty good episode Glad to see more familiar faces. |
 |
| I looooooove this OP. So much. |
 |
| Decent episode, action was pretty average but wasn't bad. Pacing was fine, idk why not include the chin grab tho, also Sakura Ayane as Saiko is something I didn't know I needed. Curious to see how the Auction Arc will play out. Also wasn't fond of nutcracker's sfx, seemed more goofy than terrifying. |
| Big Order (TV):great anime or greatest anime? |

He then got amnesia and started going by a different name while also working for the investigators, as you can tell. He basically has a completely different identity now, and if I'm remembering the manga correctly, doesn't really remember his past life yet. Kaneki is just reaching out to him to embrace his inner ghoul once again. |
|
| Well I'm glad to see they slowed the pacing down. Maybe the adaptation can be decent if they continue like this (but with the unpredictability of Pierrot, who knows wtf will happen). The coffee shop scene at the end was really nice, the music did a good job adding more emotion to it. |
| People on MAL refuse to actually enjoy watching anime. Your taste in anime isn't a personality trait. |

| I'm not fond of the action, but oh well... the adaptation was ok, I guess. 3 chapters is acceptable for sure. The meeting with Touka felt ok, the subtle introduction of Furuta was nice, although I really don't like how they portrayed him in the OP, is really unnecessary. All in all it was ok. |
| Oh, they did the animation for Arima correctly this time, I'm so glad. Hope Eto gets the same treatment. Now I can't wait to see Eto×Kaneki moment! They make such a perfect couple to me. <3 Overall a great episode. This is what I was talking about: 3 chapters per episode. No rush! It finally feels more like Tokyo Ghoul manga comes to life, rather than some straight-up edgy shounen fights. With this, hopefully comes the possibility for 2 cours (24 episodes) season. |
I just realized that all of my favorite characters, beside being stunningly beautiful, also happen to be exceptionally skilled murder machines. \('-')/ I'm level  on mal-badges. View my badges. |
