i get it that this sequel didn't adapt the manga faithfully, but it's far from being worse. i don't understand the hate for it... imho, it's great, and even better than the first season. yes, ik the manga is even better, but that doesn't make this bad in any way!!1!!11

what do you guys think about this sequel??? do you think it was overshadowed by hate from the manga fans?

Sure it might be good but what I felt was the problem was that it didn't explain a lot of things and I was always like what? why? how? Maybe I did pay enough attention or it was the case that it didn't explain things well.

(Question: is Tokyo Ghoul:re canon or not because I haven't read the manga)

You have anime watchers that only watch anime and don’t really read the manga and to them and everyone else the anime is a well animated and will written anime now because you read the manga and see that the anime doesn’t take well after the manga, there’s a fine line between being an overrated anime and an actual good anime that people have watched them selves and as a collective decide that the anime is good and builds hype on the anime as a collective because of the good aspects that’s the anime have so no it is not overrated, it’s a good anime that is watched, understood and loved by people as a collective.

I could see that something was wrong with it even before reading the manga.
It had good moments and I liked the music and the fights but I didn't like the direction the story took.
I also didn't like where the story went in the sequel manga so it's not like the anime writers were the only ones with bad ideas and the author could do no wrong.

you need to use punctuation.

responding to op: I was just super confused and there were a lot of loose ends. I decided against watching re: after seeing how rushed the second season of the original Tokyo ghoul was and assumed that's what happened with re: as well.

yes i understand that it's not bad but it's not better than the first season not even close. the first season was rushed but i don't think any anime original even notice the rush but this one is rushed pretty badly i remember I'm feeling frustrated at some points while watching this like i can feel something is wrong without even reading the manga and the opening and endings ar not even that good yes the ending was pretty good but the opening is honestly a piece of crap compared to the first season opening unravel so my point is you're right it's not that bad but it's not better than the first season in my opinion not even close i think if i give the first season a 9/10 then this one I'll give 6.5/10 but hey everyone has their own opinions and i know you have your own reasons for thinking that it's better than the first season

Can’t say I hate it I enjoyed it a bit but again it wasn’t too fun cause it wasn’t faithful to manga and they also changed the ending but still I had fun watching it so I have really mixed emotions about it

i always read the manga before i see the anime but with tokyo ghoul i didnt soo this is my opinion as only anime watcher
but i loved the first 2 seasons and the re: version i mean its not that good as first 2 seasons but i liked it i would give it a solid 6/10
that kenaki have a child with the girl and has a happy ending after al the suffering is nice to see in a animation.
and like i said i didnt have read the manga so i can only see its on how its animated

Even if I exclude the manga, the pacing of the anime is just rough. Especially given they were allowed two seasons, might as well have tried to do a better job writing it. Adapt what you can and leave it open for the future.

Instead, they bum rushed everything and left a garbled narrative behind.

It’s just alright with a bad, open ending.

Even people you haven’t seen it tend to have very strong opinions, purely based on other peoples rants ….it’s weird xD

There's only a couple of jarring differences, many events are quiet similar. I just finished reading the Root A portion of the manga. And while the manga is BETTER, it still is not as good as the first half. The series took a dive after Jason and that's a fact.

i thought the second season was great, definitely doesn’t deserve the hate i’ve seen it get on tiktok. but of course it pales in comparison to the manga. i get it when people say that as a reasoning to dislike it, especially since it’s such a brilliant story, but as a separate entity from the manga i think that it’s a wonderful season.
tokyo ghoul :re however is much worse. i think they rushed into it far too much to the point i was confused by many things when i first watched it. i actually enjoyed the haise arc very much, but the second half was extremely lacking in details and story.

i don’t think it’s fair to criticise season 2 for the same reasons as the third, because from a watching standpoint the second season wasn’t difficult to follow at all.

When you watch it for the first time without reading the manga first is not that bad but a bit confusing. If you have read the manga previously you are just sad it is not adapted properly. The soundtracks are still amazing, only thing worth noting about season 2 :(

I didn't read the manga at the time, but I watched season 1 and enjoyed it. I went into season 2, hoping it'd be the same enjoyment experience, and it wasn't.... thought it was weak in comparison to season 1. I only read the manga bout 2-3 years ago, and it only made the anime worse knowing what it should have been.

In direct comparison to the manga, the anime is terrible. But just looking at Tokyo Ghoul as an anime as if the manga didn't exist is ok and a bit overhated.

Ive never read the manga, but season 1 & 2 were pretty good. The only thing I don’t like is the animation style but that’s just my personal preference. Season 3 is just confusing? It was hard to not drop as the story line became too confusing, Season 4 was worse than season 3. I had to stop watching as so many character changes and an even more confusing story line

Few years ago I first finished the anime then start to reading manga. But I saw so many deleted scenes while I'm reading manga. If studio made the anime little bit more detailed or add few more scenes maybe it could be better.
