I really want to see Touka vs Ayato. I think that would be a pretty epic battle.

Honestly, if you didn't read the Manga, the Anime feels like one of the best ones ever. I am reading the Manga as well, and see why this sucks as an adaption, but that's why I'm not reading ahead of the Anime. If I did, I probably wouldn't be able to enjoy the last episode.

Honestly, I'd so recommend to have a good time with the Anime first before reading the Manga. If you read the Manga after watching the Anime, you'll be able to enjoy both. The Manga wouldn't feel like it has annoyingly slow-ass paced. It merely feels more developed, and it's interesting to see parts of the story, details, or backgrounds after seeing the Anime.

Well there's not much Pierrot can do since the series was shortened. It was obvious that lots would be skipped

What the hell... I'm sure I didn't skip any episode, why the fuck are they already invading Aogiri Tree? Fuck this adaptation, I'm so pissed for this being super ultra mega rushed!

I don't expect anything good from this adaptation anymore, fuck this, fuck everything, fuck my life.

Pretty good episode, I wonder how this will all turn out. I'm about to start reading the manga cause people are saying that they cut out so much and rushed through a lot of stuff.

Before reading the manga I had no idea it was butchered so much.... It was fine when I hadn't read it I was kinda enjoying it, but now.... oh shit its fucking horrible. Thank god the action somehow saves it.

It was super rushed and I couldn't get into this episode at all. Expecting a anime only finish at this point might as well start reading the manga.

This anime could have been another big hit like attack on titan, but they butchered this series so much why did they only do 12 episodes? This series already had a very big following in Japanese.

Hopefully this series can get a remake by production Ig or madhouse. It deserve better.

Felt? Nope, it was rushed.
Even the bike scene that was supposed to be a bit comic was just meh... This is the first time I despise an adaptation so much... The anime itself is amazing but the adaptation from the manga is just totally horrible.

So much censorship. This anime really upsets me because the animation is so pretty, and the story is perfect for animation, what with all the action. Especially where the kagune and quinque are involved. This season easily could have been 24 episodes if they had just kept everything in it from the manga and not censored it so much. Like everyone else, I really hope someone remakes this series later like what they did with FMA.

Aw crap.. are they torturing poor Kaneki once again... just leave the guy alone or he'll probably end up kicking your asses into oblivion lol.

Tsukiyama at himself in order to heal his wounds eh.... NO KIDDING!!!

Ah, now I see why he's called, because he wears that similar ass hockey mask.

After literally becoming Jason's torture bish I think Kaneki will probably end up being scarred for life and actually change him somehow.

WAR HYPE!!!

Banjou... such a nice guy T.T

Ah, so Jason was actually subjected to torture and that's how he made an alternate personality in order to protect himself and escaped, and now he's torturing Kaneki in the exact same way.

Let the war begin!!!

Well... Suzuya confirmed OP and his entrance was freaking epic!

Some epic battles are about to start and Amon already went full badass.

LOL, Nishiki stabbed forever T.T

Um... did Kaneki's hair turn all white because of the torture I wonder O.o

Good to see the manga seems to be better...
This anime left me disliking ghouls in general, not understanding the story 100% and I don't really feel interested in most of the characters except Mado's companion.

Must remember to give the manga a go.

Can I call this the "Last airbender Shamalyan"effect?
Where if you never seen the original source material you think "this" is full of awesomeness then you decided to take a look at the source material love it but then come back to it's adaptation just to say to it "This is shit"

I kinda wish I waited until this anime ended to read the manga because I couldn't enjoy this episode at all.

I was fine before but this episode was so rushed and included things they could have just skipped instead of omitting the things that were really important. In the manga I really enjoyed reading Kaneki's torture part because that's where we really REALLY start seeing the psychological aspect of Tokyo ghoul. :c

I think Studio Pierrot have been doing to much shounen series since it's seems they don't even know how to adapt this series properly. It just looks like they just want to concentrate on animating the violent parts.

I hope there is a proper remake in the future.

As an anime only watcher, I thought it was fine. The manga readers seem pretty mad so what do I know.xD It kinda sucks that we only get white haired Kaneki for one episode.

It felt quite rushed. That's what 12 eps usually give you. Oh well the battles were fun. Amon is OP as fck. Touka runnig away from Amon pff. Nishiji or whatever the name saved Touka from the evil brother Oo. Amore didn't get much screen time Amo....re... That thing at the end must be the final boss of the game eeh I mean anime. Finally I see Kaneki's white hair in the episode and not in the OP. Jason went crazy because of that, it wouldn't surprise me if Rize took over. Well next week last episode but I might start reading the manga. Depends on my mood the next days/weeks.

Ok, Suzuya is the reason I'm giving the manga a chance after this end. DAT.BIKE.SCENE.

I can understand manga readers being mad at this, something similar happened to Deadman Wonderland but in my opinion that adaptation was waaaay better. I don't need to even read the manga to note how rushed things have been. It's not that this series is bad... it just feels like a wasted opportunity. Hope the manga does not disappoint, been hearing just good things about it.

Errr, that torture was awful to watch. I think it bother me less to see the torture than to be left imaginating it... But what was he counting for? Also, he got some sweet white hair, the true sign of a warrior. Or someone who have been violently abused, raped from everywhere.

As for the one-eyed ghould ending, I like that theory about him being the old man. It would make sense since he seem to dislike getting in battle and that he suddenly appeared on the rooftop when he left Himeko and the other girl. Mado was also tracking him since a long time I would guess. But it would be impossible to leave no trace without becoming invisible, without stopping being a ghoul.

Those two ghouls S rank ain't got nothing on Amon and is brolove for Mado. He shall get revenge. (except against Touka plz)

So fucking rushed, not like we didn't know before, but my fucking god. This is atrocious. Only anime-viewers can really enjoy this since they haven't seen the manga, but then again some people will overlooked at how rushed it is.

Skipping the
from the manga... Like Jesus Christ.

Best part of this episode was the Motorcycle scene and Amon wrecking shit up.

The Aogori arc ends in chapter 79 so it will certainly not be 100 chapters!

This episode adapted around 11.5 chapters! Yep, That much!

Censorship is back so that means someone was brutally murdered and it looks like some epic fight scenes will wrap up this season. Suzuya going Leeroy Jekins on the snipers was the highlight of this episode.

do anime-only viewers think this episode was rushed too? just wondering. I actually liked it but it went by so fast that you knew too much was packed into it, which I'm quite sad about /: Kaneki is literally about to go through "character development" in the last episode of the anime...

This is Straight up insult to the original source.
Everything is changed and ruined for the worsts.
Most of all Kaneki's development is so Fucking ruined and What he's Hair turned white in one single day?
Holy Shit!
In the manga It took one week of torturing Kaneki for him to break down completely and There were Two Important characters(Child and the mother) that had a huge role in Kaneki's Development.
They were completely removed!

This anime adaptation is disgusting,Fuck I'm not gonna buy that stupid dvd anymore in the future.
Also they Literally changed every scenario in the Aogiri arc that everything is a Total mess.
Thanks for ruining Tokyo ghoul in the eyes of Anime only viewers!
Good job Pierrot!
Fuck I'm so angry right now I can't believe it.


Sadly, this is how I feel. I could endure the rushed moments from previous episodes since the studio had limited time to work with, but this episode ruined so many characters that it was difficult to enjoy the rest of it.
