I though the first minutes with the Doves fighting against all those Ghouls from Aogiri while the chairman from the CCG was giving his speech was just an introduction to the arc, then it turns out they adapted 10 chapters straight of that scenes. Wew, the rush is real. This is going to be an utter trainwreck, isn't?

Tokyo ghoul manga had potential to become the masterpiece.
But the people who made it into anime adaptation ruined it for money.
Unconsiderable bunch of arseholes for viewers and mangaka.

I don't know if there is a point in watching this mess. I haven't read TG:re so I have absolutely no idea what was happening. Are they even making this season for anybody? Those who only watch anime won't understand a thing, and those who read the manga most likely won't enjoy a butchered story.

Actually I am a manga reader and while the story certainly is a lot worse i am glad that i can see it animated, so I´m kinda happy ^^

I don't care what y'all say, i was hyped after this episode. Super fast paced, but i imagine there will be flashbacks coming in future episodes.

As long as they get the important stuff on the screen and dont stray to far from the source, this should be OK, not great but OK.

I'm glad I read the entire manga after season 1 of :re, now i can watch this ironically and laugh at the adaptation.

I swear this episode contained about 30 chapters of content, 20 of the Rushima arc into a montage at the beginning and the entire setup of the Cochlea raid.

TG season 1 was decent and re: season 1 did a passable job, but this is just going to go right down the drain

Damn, what a rushed episode this was!

Even as a manga reader, it was hard to tell which arc was being adapted and to even tell the characters apart initially. It made things a little intense of sorts though, so I’ll be looking forward to seeing the next episode with the Op and ED.

Sorry Natsuki-san, but I don’t think I’ll be able to enjoy this Season of a Tokyo Ghoul:re either.

It’s really bizarre. For a show that is adapting completed source material and has been given 4 seasons, how have they managed to screw it up so badly? It’s trying to tell a completed story and isn’t one of those anime that essentially act as a long commercial for the manga, so it should tell the story right. It’s also a hot property that’s been adapted into games, live action, prequels, and light novels, so there really isn’t a good reason for it to be a rush job. Either do it right or don’t do it at all. (And like everyone else, I would love for them to redo the anime and properly adapt the manga, but I would also laugh my ass off seeing how much extra coin they can squeeze out of it.)

After the previous season this just made no sense to me. As a non manga reader I had to research myself because the whole time I thought I missed something in the story but no, they skipped an arc. That is such a pity and I guess many anime watchers will be confused by this.

My gosh, I had to open TG wiki every time a name comes out, because it's really confusing. I think I get the gist of the story from the spoilers of the characters wiki, but damn I really wish this anime could've been made properly.

Well this was just a preview episode, let's see what happens in the first episode. I was pretty impressed with the depiction of Black Reaper Kaneki and Rize and Arima were reintroduced. Not much time was wasted in this episode and it did seem quite rushed. Let's hope the first episode turns out great.

I don't know if it's just me being a dumbass, but last season and this season kept making me confused on who is who until its explicitly stated because people keep changing appearances and sometimes added with the fact that it's been forever since i've seen them at all.

I didn't immediately recognize Kaneki because we just spent an entire season with dual colored hair, minus the ending. Now it's fully back to black and with glasses? Threw me off until his name was actually spoken. Same goes for that book author, i thought she was like 10+ years older with way longer hair?

I think i'm just getting things wrong or misremembering? I don't know.

I could forgive pierrot for the lacklustre root a but this... why?

I confess I've only been into anime for a few years and manga even less but I genuinely adore the Tokyo Ghoul manga. I loved it so much that I am actually willing to spend what little money I have on paper volumes at full price because I find the story and characters engaging and the art beautiful. I thought it was impossible to ruin it and I rated TG s1 and :re s1 10/10 even though they don't deserve close to that because I just really enjoy TG. But when you cut an entire arc down to two minutes of cutscenes it cannot be redeemed. All the anime onlys are confused and all the manga readers are disappointed. It's not like the arc that they skipped was unimportant too - there's a number of things that should've happened which didn't. As I said, I haven't been watching anime all that long but this is one of the worst shows I've seen, and it had such good source material too. It didn't look all that good and even what they did keep they fiddled with unnecessarily, and the only reason it isn't a 1 is cos I did smile at the few remaining unbutchered moments. Please god let someone else have a go at a proper adaptation in the near because this is truly outrageous.

Hmm so the next arc is the Rushima landing operation arc. Eto's reveal of her true face was quite brazen. The insight into how she started out as a writer was quite interesting though. Eto's wish though was a powerful one though and one that was certainly heretical in society. Her last book though certainly revealed an interesting conspiracy though. Eto not being fazed by Furuta's actions was impressive. Interesting episode that produced some game changing revelations with regards to Eto and Sasaki's lives while featuring some good look into the past. A good return to the series.
