Seriously guys....
How and why are you so happy about the adapted sex scene?
Just look at how people have rated this episode.
I think its the highest rated episode this season and it was pure garbo. Well, atleast the animation was fine.

They rushed everything and cut out so many important parts which took place in between all the fighting and f*ucking and kaki things that it completely ruined this episode.
I wouldnt have mind if they'd have made the sex scene a bit shorter, i mean cmon who really needed to see that?
Ok i wanted to see touka dropping her shirt lol but everything after that....

But if we got those, we would have to settle with a kiss under the moon, then a camera defocus, and then the next day but with the saved up time, instead we got a full action scene and i have to say, its better ͝° ͜ʖ ͝°


If you want porn you can watch a hentai.
For me plot and story, characters >>> sex scenes.

Not that this scene alone would had any effect on the overal score of the series. It got fucked hard from the 2nd season. (Or maybe even before that when Pierrot decided to touch it).

Well if you look at the comments on mal, this episode was the only one that got some positive feedback, so i guess that certain scene was good for the show.

But i totally agree with you, anime has been a trash from the 2ed season forward. The art, the direction and the lack of seriousness killed the show and its kind of feels like its an OVA for the manga and not a stand alone anime anymore, its kind of sad.

Everything is wrong in this series, I felt more emotion while reading manga, and I think it should be the other way round? Art is terrible and everything is tragically accelerated, they cut a huge number of scenes, and some even changed, for worse of course. The worst thing is that most of the characters' reactions are completely different than in manga. How is it possible that the black and white pictures touched me more than an animation with music in the background. Kill this show ASAP and pray for good adaptation.

BTW. In my opinion, the adaptation of Chapter 125 was embarrassing, it was hard to watch it, and while reading the manga it was the other way round, the atmosphere was perfectly built for such a scene and the chapter 125 itself was brilliantly made.

So let's summarize... as anime-only viewer I read many things about skipped chapters from manga, important for the story (and for fully understanding it), for the characters' development... and now in this episode we have a sex scene that is rushed so much it is not even emotional? Art was cool, music too, but my friends - it went totally without emotion. They talked a little bit, then they had sex, then Touka became pregnant and finally they got married. Everything in one episode. Too bad he didn't see the kid after being born, lol. It's not only a complaint about this being rushed, because as I said I haven't read the manga. I complain about the lack of emotions I felt from this scene in the anime and how everything was rushed WITHOUT having a feeling that certain amount of time passed. It felt like, dunno, everything happened during one day period.

I still don't know what is really happening in the plot in terms of details (like, what is Clowns' mission and purpose of their actions, why that doctor had huge and technically developed lab with "Owl" cabins etc.), yet almost half of the episode was about Touka and Kaneki's relationship. From what I read from people who read the manga, their relationship improved earlier, but it was not shown in the anime, as well as many other scenes important for certain characters' development.

I could give this anime 6/10, because I enjoyed fighting scenes. Now I must give it 5/10, at least for this moment. Fights are no longer that entertaining, plot is a mess and I watch this anime only because I kinda liked it at first and I still can relax in front of it, although I can feel lost potential as well, especially after reading posts tbat were written by the manga readers.

Most people who still watch this already know that the manga events are going to be rushed and sometimes cut. Therefore most people expected the sex scene to just be Kiss + Fade out and ended up being surprised by Pierrot Plus actually going forward and showcasing the sex, in a more tamer manner sure, but still more than what most expected.

What do you mean? Funimation only distributes, the studio that does the TG:re anime is a Japanese studio called Pierrot Plus. And in this episode they just adapted one scene that had already happened in the manga.

They didn't clarify but when Touka begins feeling the effects it's about at least one month after she gave Kaneki her parents' ring and her friend married.

It was a poor improper scene.. manga might have been better but the adaptation was quite awkward in my opinion.. I just thought that anime with funimation in their opening are for not like that you know what i mean..😅..btw this was my first post on MAL.

The Tokyo Ghoul series is a seinen. Like Berserk, it does not shy away from showcasing sex or gore scenes for the story if they're needed. The TG anime generally gets a level of censorship attached to it though.

The ones responsible for Tg:re is Pierrot's secondary studio, Pierrot Plus. That's why the animation is kinda different and kinda stiff sometimes.

God that was lame. Mutsuki is now full random psycho (cause plot). And d
id those mother fuckers really just ride bikes off a building? Not even motorcycles. Just normal fucking bicycles! That was the lamest fucking thing I've ever seen. Not even Touken getting hot and heavy can override that for me (but God damn is touka gorgeous).

I like to think that in some point in ghoul history, someone was kissing someone's neck, got hit with a ball and ended up married.

The pacing is definitely really quick in their relationship like they make love, then Touka gets pregnant and they get married? At least the baby didn't come in this episode! lol
Other than that, this episode was the best one this season! The sex scene was really sweet and had great music for it!

Ok so this episode's quality was about what I've come to expect. But why are people saying the voice acting is good? I'm actually curious about this. Kaneki sounds way too young. He sounds younger than the first two seasons and now he sounds like every anime protagonist ever. Someone please explain.

For animation and voice acting yeah but the lack of a good soundtrack is definitely the budget too. That's one of the big differences between this and Root A

Mutsuki's "I love you" was priceless. There was not even a single line of build-up(not counting the last episode "revelations"). Out of place and simply forced drama.

The sex scene was not bad. Well they are better at adapting the sex scenes than fighting scenes. I would not mind if we stay with only sex scenes, would be still a better story.

holy fuck this was so anticlimactic. the transitioning from fighting, to marriage, to sex, to drama and to marriage again. like, who even gives a shit what's going on? who gives a shit who are those bike gang ghouls? nobody, obviously. everyone's here just for that sex slide show smh


The "ghouls" with the bike were the oggais, part of the New generation Quinx Furuta showed at the end of the last episode. The rushed aspect of this adaptation doesn't help but you're not really paying attention either.


It is really hard to follow this mess. They "introduced" Washu clan out of the ass. And now the Washu are leading the CCG. Oh and before the CCG boss was also a ghoul. But they are fighting ghouls, so they are transforming into ghouls! Whoever tought this is a good plot deserves a medal.

Although the plot is all over and very confusing to understand, at least the animation was ok. I think they haven't told us a much about Akira or Touka's past regarding their fathers, but this ep. was nice to follow though the story were confusing. I am getting the Naruto vibes in this ep. Talk no justsu does it once again, but only in a different anime. The hate dilemma occurs once again.

Interesting how this Goat operation will work out. As expected Kaneki is the new one-eyed owl. The preview of next ep. looks interesting. I am curious about the OST. I believe it's a classical piece. Can anyone confirm? :) I have a feeling it's Tchaikovsky's nutcracker. But I am not sure. xD

It's difficult to follow if you're an anime only because :re follows the original manga, not ROOT A's take of it and I don't remember if Root A ever talked about the Washuu family being the Head of the CCG while the original manga and :Re season 1 definitely did.

And things aren't as Black and white as you're implying; like ghouls on one side and humans in other, the Washuu are a family of ghouls who reached the top and just wanted to keep things that way, to keep status quo fixed, that's why CCG never dealt any actual real damage to the ghouls until Furuta took charge.

I kinda feel like he was just added in cause he worked on the first one. The fact that they only have one new song, the music feels like it's played randomly regardless of what's happening, and the fact that half the scenes don't even have music kinda tells me nobody is really working on that. He's probably doing other stuff with the main studio. They probably only paid for the one new song due to budget constraints. Or he's been overworked or given no time. All three is also very possible.

whaaaat? I mean I knew this was coming but everyone just happened so fast in this episode, those two got married, these two had sex, they have a baby coming now apparently, and then they get married. Dude. Seriously. Talk about pacing. All that in one episode, then right after the 1st marriage, the bride gets arrested, things sure work around fast in the :re world huh? I can already tell that since that 1st marriage's smiles disappeared fast, Kaneki's probably won't last past half of next episode.
