Mixed Feelings
There will be some sections separated in 2 parts, this is because i have 2 different opinions in some of them. Those will be separated as "As an adaptation" as i will be reviewing it as a direct adaptation from the manga, and "As an original" just liked said, to me, this was more of an original series rather than a direct adaptation, so i will review it considering this is an original series.

STORY: 4
-Part 1 - As an adaptation (3/10)
Of all the things they could've done, they decided to not follow the story. While at the beginning it looked like a pretty good adaptation, they lost that later in the series. To my eyes, it's just an original series made inspired by the manga.
-Part 2 - As an original series (5/10)
The show is ok, obviously it needs a lot of work. It is fast paced for those who don't like that much dialogue, while at some points it's quite confusing since they don't focuse on telling us the meaning of things, you get the hang of it after some time.

ART: 4
The art is nothing from the other world, it's good most of the time, but sometimes it just stops being smooth and that's where the problems come. Most fights were not properly focused, so you could barely understand what was going on. The point i probably liked were how they did the Kagunes, they are straight up beautiful.

Sound: 8
The music and voice acting in this is such a nice thing that a lot of shows are missing. The Opening is really nice and the Ending is just fabulous. The insert music was also really pleasing and it was put in the right places.

Character: 3
We get to know a lot of characters, like, a lot. But, unfortunately, none of them has proper development. To me, the 2 that got proper and nice development were Kaneki and Rize, all of the others were almost just like extras to actually make a story, they didn't really contribute in anything.

Enjoyment: 6
Part 1 - As an adaptation (5/10)
I liked this show, but at the same times i hated it, i read the manga before hand and they didn't follow everything from it, at the beginning it was going good but instantly went down and they clearly started a new story, or better said, they just wanted the fast way out. They did things way too quickly.
-Part 2 - As an original series (7/10)
The show is nice, but there are some things that could've been explained before anything, the way they ended it was also weird and bad, it just felt empty and dull after that fight, to just end it with kaneki eating? Ok.

Overall: 5
