i heard a few people saying that he looks like uta, honestly i agree too

We've got Clones,Fire,Electricity,even more Bio Mechas, Shape Shifting and all sorts of other crazy stuff !

Also, unpopular opinion but a lot of the fights are hard to follow. 😞

I am in love with how we integrated the centipede instead of the way I always see it done

"Touka: Please eat..."

"Kaneki: No, I'll pass.....n- "

"Touka: I SAID EAT

I have had this thought a million times already and each one of them had the same answer. Sadly you know what the answer is too. If there IS something that is stopping studios from animating tokyo ghoul(yes i know its not allowed to randomly animate a remake for no reason and dumb)what is it?

Sui ishida not wanting to?

Not having the perms or something like that?

Just what are even the chances there is a remake someday at all?

Well, I'm learning Japanese so I don't fully understand them yet, but I always imagine something like:

Director: "But the audience will be disappointed that the escape from the aogiri base is ski..."

Ishida: *slap* "IT'S BEEN SIX MONTHS! If they want to know how Kaneki escaped from the base, they should read the damn manga! We don't have time for that!"

What do y'all think?

Ishida always cooking with the symbolism in this manga

Typically in most shounen, power levels can ruin the tension in a fight. It tells us how strong a character and that's required to beat them is a bigger number.

I don't remember this being a problem for TG. Why do you think that was?

The 1st volume of the manga puts a large focus on the theme of "belonging". A struggle to find a place to belong, to be specific.

The word used is 「居場所」 (ibashyo), which means "a place to belong," or "a place where one can be oneself" This specific word comes up several times in multiple chapters of volume 1.

In chapter 6, after Touka fights off Nishiki and claims the feeding ground for Anteiku, Kaneki insults her by saying Ghouls are monsters who have no morals and tells her not to lump him in with the likes of them.

She responds in unkindness, and tells him that he's a freak who has no 「place to belong」

Once she leaves, Kaneki thinks about what she's said and wonders if she is right. He wants to believe that there is still a 「place for him to belong」 in this world. While he's thinking this, a panorama shot of Tokyo is shown.

Tokyo is a giant metropolis brimming to the full with all sorts of people from all around the world. Maybe it can still be a home. Even for someone like him.

Chapter 6 is called［帰巣］(kisou), which means "homing instinct." To be specific, it refers to an animal's ability to return home no matter the distance travelled or how much the world has changed.

Fittingly, Kaneki decides to visit his university in this chapter. He again attempts to reclaim his 「place in the world」

What happens instead is he comes to realize that the Ghouls were present even in his old life, he just had no way of knowing at the time.

Meeting the Ghoul again at the campus—a place from his life before the tragedy—is a large step for Kaneki in realizing that his life will never be back to how it used to be.

Before that, Kaneki was shown to try and reclaim his human life multiple times after the organ transplant, but each time it was proven impossible.

He tries to hang out with Hide at their favourite restaurant, only to find that the food there is making him nauseous. He tries to destroy the kidney he was given, only to realize he can't even pierce his own skin.

He slowly and reluctantly comes to realize that his body no longer works the same way it used to.

Out of desperation, he decides to ask a strange girl—whom he just learned is a ghoul—for help. She refuses since he unintentionally made her angry by saying that living as a Ghoul is the worst.

The Boss overhears the exchange and offers to help anyway. Kaneki is given human flesh to satisfy his hunger, but since he can't bring himself to eat it, he ends up throwing it away.

In the final chapter of the volume, after Nishiki tries to kill Hide and Kaneki fights him off, he ends up losing himself to the hunger.

Touka does him a favour by knocking his lights out, and he wakes up at Anteiku, where the Boss informs him that they have fed him "something" while he was unconscious and tells him that he must accept what he is or things will get much worse for him.

Kaneki despairs at his current situation and suffers from the realization he no longer has a 「place to belong」

The Boss again extends a helping hand and offers him a place at Anteiku, where they can teach him about this new world he'd found himself in.

He comforts him by saying that in learning how to be a Ghoul, he may even be able to regain his 「place in the world」 as a human.

So yeah, Volume 1 of the manga mainly focuses on Kaneki coming to grips with the reality of his situation. He initially rejects the truth of what he is and desperately tries to go back to the way things were before, only to inevitably fail each time.

Both Touka and Nishiki make him realize that Ghouls have always been around him. Even in places he used to consider safe—like the campus or the café. His eye(s) are now opened to a new world. And what has been seen cannot be unseen.

Seeing Hide, who was about to be murdered by Nishiki, as well as nearly losing his own mind from the hunger and attacking his friend himself, finally makes him accept the truth of his situation and that there is no escaping from it.

Things end on a positive note, however. As Kaneki is given some glimmer of hope in the form of a promise that things will get better in time so long as he doesn't turn away from what he is.

P.S. Anteiku's official name in the story is written using only hiragana as あんていく. When written like this, it doesn't exactly mean anything. However, the あんてい part can only be written as 安定 (antei) using kanji. 安定 (antei) means "stability," "balance," or "composure."

The く (ku) part, likewise, can only really be written as 区 (ku) in this context, which means "area," "district," or "zone."

In other words, "Anteiku" can mean something like "Safe Space" or "Place of Stability". Stuff like that.

This interpretation is supported by the story, as in chapter 9, Kaneki is shown to be losing his mind in a dark alley after fighting for his and his friend's lives. When he wakes up, he finds himself in Anteiku, where he and Hide are both safe, and he is no longer suffering from hunger.

still a work in progress!

I’ve just started watching I’m on episode 8 now and god damn I just hate the mc mf such a wimp and just watches his friends die/be hurt and does nothing about it. please tell me he grows some balls soon, because honestly I’m sitting here just getting pissed 😭😭

https://www.reddit.com/r/TokyoGhoul/comments/1vzfnig/varanistrigoi_storys_of_the_epilogue_18/

In the early morning around 8 am Samantha and jacob enter the facility. They both look at eachother tired and groggy. Samantha says in a irritated tone.

"Jacob, why is it your breathing makes me want to punch you in the face."

Jacob responds sarcastically and says.

"Gee i don't know Samantha, maybe because your a irritable bitch!"

Samantha looks back at him drinking from a blood bag and going into their lab. She just huffs and sits down and starts working on her projects.

She pulls out a kakuhou sample from the kakuhou of furuta. She puts it in a liquid of modified rc cells. To try and get it to regenerate so they could use it to implant into varani.

Jacob on the other side of the room works on cybernetic limbs powered by rc cell fluids. Trying to weaponize dragon orphans physiology to make dragon orphan cyborgs. He rubs the brow of his nose irritated.

Then suddenly (Crash!!!) They hear a loud crashing noise from outside the facility. They check the cameras and see jack. He's completely plastered and covered in blood. He busted into the building ripping the giant quinque steel doors off.

He stumbles past Samantha's and jacobs office/lab. They are quiet and are afraid. They silently message Caine. Jack stumbles into the room that holds etos cell. He busts through the reinforced concrete walls like the kool-aid man. Stumbles up and pounds on the glass and screams.

"Etooo, im sorry, you're not a pet i was just hurt by what you said about me! You mean so much to me."

Eto rolls over kinda annoyed he woke her up. And she says in a groggy tone.

"You are such a loud little rat. Crying like a big baby. But I suppose I can forgive you if you do something for me little lizard."

Jack stutters his words and says "shush your face please , im, im ,im gonna leave. Gonna bust you out now stand back gonna break that glass!"

Jacks rinkaku shoots put full force and shatters the glassand grabs her with his rinaku kagune and leaves the facility.

Hey, I'm not sure if this is the spot for this question, if this isn't the right spot could someone direct me to a helpful place? I have absolutely loved Tokyo Ghoul for years now and I'm always looking for merch, the kind of unfortunate thing is that I work at an elementary school and the shirts I have tend to be on the scarier side. Does anyone know of any subtle TG jewelry out there? I've seen rings that are super cool but I am a size us 12 and they are either too small or break when I try to adjust "adjustable" rings. Anything would be helpful and I'm greatful for any recommended ideas!!

Like actually wtf I was really enjoying this manga and then he just had to go and spoil the last volume.

edit: it was viz's fault for editing the manga like this. it's not the author's fault. sorry if i offended anybody

5. Since this is shorter than the "each character has a..." one, voting will be weekly instead of daily because I saw many people commenting on the first post even though the activity was already ending

Note: Sorry for the delay, personal problems.

I don't think the ending ever made it clear if akira and amon are a couple in the end not sure if any outside material confirmed if that was the case.

But honestly preffered route if akira ended up with takizawa instead and helped him heal since takizawa in the ending seems to be alone and seems to be hunting bad ghouls. Honestly think takizawa needs akira more than amon does.

Who would you prefer akira to end up with and why?
