Art: No critiques here. Pierrot knows how to capture an anguish and broken expression of a character without making us cringe too much(I like my horror to be relatable) and instead shows in depth emotion. The only time the animation would falter would be when a character appear kinda awkward in the background and man is it DOPE!! Haha.. my excuse but when you notice it, it doesn't really matter and makes for a rather good laugh. SERIOUSLY, IT'S UNNOTICEABLE.
Sound: Here is where we arrive at my favorite spot. Music.. ah, music fills my ears with happiness or in this case it's the opening of Tokyo Ghoul. Unravel is by far maybe the most catchiest song you'll ever hear and you can disagree..(please don't) but have at it. I also enjoy the ending sequence.. while squealing at the art- I didn't explain but the art at the ed is pure awesomeness.
Character: It's a bit of a hit and miss with some of the characters. While the story started off with a generic character getting into a unexpected situation, it dives off from the norm and makes us insane with the characters. Kaneki-book worm kid, Touka-tsundere at any cost, Tsukiyama- Man who sniffs-things-too-much-for-his-own-good, and finally hide- the always supportive but lonesome friend who more or less should appear more but doesn't. There are more but I wouldn't want to bore you so let's get on. I should also say these are the characters that also lack in the development area... just letting you know.
Enjoyment: Tokyo Ghoul let me just say isn't just great it's awesome and for what it sought out to do, it did right. If I had to say what appears to be bad, it's going to be the character development.. like I said before, some of the characters are a hit-and-miss to viewers and going into a twelve episode anime covering about 70 chapters isn't easy, and perhaps the censoring, so maybe now's a good time to look up the characters before watching. Hehe.. nervous laugh.
Overall: I rated Tokyo Ghoul a nine, which is pretty high and as high as I'll go...(sassy, but right) anyway, with Tokyo Ghoul it's easily a watchable anime despite the gore, and let's say that everything was censored so you're gonna have an easy time watching. My opinion with the anime adaption is pretty high, but I would like to see a better adaption true to the manga oneday. That's all I have time for today and I'll leave some suggestion as to what you might want to try.
