This Review covers the Entirety of Tokyo Ghoul. There will be spoilers in here at the end of the review but there is a disclaimer before them. The spoiler tags used before it are only pictures used to save space This is also my first reviews so dont be too hard on me 450https://64.media.tumblr.com/12ce7a3024f936bd15c6772714598c3c/tumblrp60e4kXJpd1sc1dfjo11280.jpg Tokyo Ghoul is about the acceptance of differences and ones self. Ken goes from the sweet shy boy who doesnt open up to anyone to the king of the ghouls who fights for their and human coexistence. 220https://i.ur.com/MpOvjYt.jpg 320https://i.ur.com/b8jMzmk.png The starts talks about Ken and how he has to find a way to live in the ghoul world after turning into one because he was originally a human. I thought it was amazingly done. One thing I hate about isekai and that sort of genre is the main character having to adapt to the smallest things in the new world but in Tokyo Ghoul it didnt bother me one bit tho it also isnt a completely new world of course he just has to adapt his style of living. The connections he forms with other people seem realistic and believable and are well developed. We are also torn between the sides of the humans and the ghouls with the humans being portrayed as the villains especially at the beginning. We know both sides reasons to fight and we cant root for any side without feeling bad for the other one. The fights are amazing and among my favourites I have ever seen. They have intriguing dynamics and with the ghouls kagune and the investigators quinque there are sheer endless ways and possibilities of power or form they can produce. The best parts are when it goes about the psyche of the characters and especially Ken. His internal struggle with acceptance regrets plans pain... Its very relatable and understandable for me because I have kinda gone through something like that of course not as much as Ken. 300https://i.ur.com/BedY5oV.png As you can see in the screenshots the art is jaw dropping. Its consistently good but when it turns up it turns up. It has some of the best art I have ever seen and I have nothing to complain about in that compartment. The comedy was also really good especially towards the end. At the start it was ok and also really funny at times but often didnt really bring me to laugh. But in :re the comedy really shines and made me laugh countless times. A big part in that played Saiko who also became one of my favourite characters in the series. She can be wholesome heroic epic and funny when she needs to be and it never feels out of place. The spoiler tag below has small TG:re spoilers Tho it has nothing to do with the manga I wanted to mention that the OSTs for both TG and TG:re are amazing and amazing to listen to while reading I would recommend you do that The main part why I love the series is its main protagonist Ken Kaneki. His story of evolving from a normal boy going to school to a killer who would do anything to protect the people he loves is juts so touching to witness I didnt have a second of doubt to put him in my top 5 characters. He can be sincere loving caring but also crazy ruthless and absolutely epic. He feels like a real person going through his struggles in life with big problems but also trying his best to do what he thinks is right and he will give everything for it. 300https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/814497964436619275/814615590852493362/fcc7501b1c7a13ffaae5f0e87e997dd6.png 300https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/814497964436619275/827577036490014820/0055017.png?width=471height=676 The ending in a whole is also a 10/10 in my eyes a perfect conclusion. It has everything I wanted and more. While reading the last chapter I had tears in my eyes and they just wouldnt stop flowing. Even after completing it I the tears didnt stop for another good 20 minutes. One of the best ending form any series Ive experienced until now. 420https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/814497964436619275/829126771286868059/0179033.png?width=471height=676 I will now continue talking about spoilers so if you havent read/watched the series yet dont read the spoiler tags At the end I can only say this was one of the best rides I have ever been on. The emotional impact this series has made on me is almost not comparable to anything else I have consumed over the years. Only a few anime and games come close or surpass it 450https://i.ur.com/b8jMzmk.png
