It was revealed at the end of Tokyo Ghoul √A's finale that Sui Ishida's spin-off manga Tokyo Ghoul: "Jack" will be getting an OVA. The story will focus on the high school days of Kishou Arima, the CCG's shinigami.

The seven-chapter spin-off manga was initially published on Jump LIVE, Shounen Jump's digital manga platform, in August and September 2013. It was later compiled into a single volume on October 18, 2013.

Cool. Finally gonna get to know a bit more about Arima. That should be pretty cool. And more Tokyo Ghoul is always welcome as far as I'm concerned.

Anime Arima's face in the flashback looked decent though.

OMG Not another Naruto.


After "Root A" and the awful ending, not sure if I want to check out this OVA.
Stop the sequels high-ranking stupidity.
Group franchises in Top Anime page.
Because Gintama is just "one" anime and not 5.

The anime and the manga series are totally different things. If the manga is good, therefore they should continue trying to do anime adaptations and try to do a decent thing. Now they count with public's critics, they'll have the chance to redeem their work.

Tokyo Ghoul already has an anime adaptation, and yes, it's not what manga readers expected to be. Mistakes are already done, we can't help it.

Then you need to be more clear, because saying "Bury it for good" means to bury the whole show all together.

Oh, hm... Cool.
But who is that guy?
I remember him from 2 last episodes, but he don't get lot of screentime,
also he don't get lot of lines.

Should I care about it, when I haven't read manga?

Arima never got a proper introduction in the anime. All the hype for him comes from the manga.

Will watch of course. ~and at least hoping for an original Season 3. Then after a year or two, a brotherhood treatment! :D
"I'm just your typical human being who commit sins just like you. But the difference is that I never lied and tell anyone that what I did was right. I regret and ask for forgiveness from Him."

Why is my signature not anime-related? It's because who gives a fuck? Anyway I'd like to advertise to you this:

SHINGEKI NO KYOJIN IS FOLLOWING A SIMPLE FLOW OF THE STORYLINE. AND IT GETS REPETETIVE IF YOU VIEW IT ON ITS BIGGER PICTURE. WITH A LITTLE PLOT TWIST AND NEW IDEAS, YOU FORGOT THAT IT HAD ALREADY HAPPENED BEFORE.

Also, Tokyo Ghoul is AWESOME. Especially :re.
