The best thing of this episode is the part of the ending where we see a smiling black-haired Kaneki turning into his crazy white-hair self.

In fact, that part of the ending summarized pretty well the thing I like the most in the manga: the character development of Kaneki.

This season is lacking that, hence why is bad when compared to the original source.

Oh, and what's up with the hyper-realistic keyboard? LOL, it looked like an actual picture.

Awesome so they're preparing to exterminate the owl. My god they skipped so much from the manga and there are still a lot of loose ends, but hopefully they'll all be tied up in the coming episodes. It seems to me that from here on out there might be fewer changes and it will follow the manga a little more, but who knows.
I'm excited to see the next episode.

Not a fan of slice of life but this one is ok. Come on Amon, tap her already.
But it's important to remember that a movie review is subjective;it only gives you one person's opinion.

It doesn't matter if you like LoGH,Monster etc.If you are a jobless or college/school dropout living in your mom basement, you are still an unintelligent loser. Taste in anime does not make you a better person.If elitist don't exist, casual pleb and shit taste also don't exist.

Poor Juuzou, being raised by Ghouls.
I'm so glad Shinohara found him and raised him well.

Lol, Akira got drunk. Amon did 7890 push-ups.
That is character development right there.
I’m always searching for something, for someone. This feeling has possessed me I think, from that day… That day when the stars came falling.

I think you should marry Kaneki if you kept on whining about him not having enough screen time. Why don't go search in google images and stare at it like your crazy. I liked the MC, Kaneki, but I think he's not main reason why I'm watching the anime. Obviously since I'm a manga reader, I want some of my favorite scenes to be adapted. So fuck your whines, and don't worry all of those will be judged and achieved at a great result at the end only for you Kaneki fcktards... just you wait. You'll be traumatized for at least 7890 hours by the end of it. Again, fuck your whines.
"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.

It was an OK/good episode. I've always loved the relationship between Shinohara and Juuzo, so i'm glad they showed Rei's past. To those that couldn't stand the greasy pig that crushed Juuzo's manhood, don't worry - her death flag is set in the manga.

Roma is shown, and she's somehow even more aggravating than in the manga, but that's probably because now i know what's her deal. I'm glad Amon is getting more screentime, he's an awesome character, but it's very regrettable that Akira's sexy legs and butt weren't animated.

I honestly dislike these short bits of Touka trying to do something and Kaneki always getting mentioned somehow, after which she ends up with a sad look. This week especially felt extremely forced, since when do humans discuss ghoul's power levels, anyway? This minor attempt at melodrama doesn't fit TG.

Also, what's with Kaneki's random spasms? What he's ''suffering'' from now literally happened only one time during the last few chapters, when he was fighting ''him''. He never had any such problems while his Kakuja was inactive.

3.5/5

I hope you guys enjoyed him fighting a bit in the previous episode, because it pretty much seems we're back to him having 10 total seconds of screentime in which he sips coffee or looks depressed (the progress is real...).

Ahh and here I was sitting and hoping we'd see some more about Kaneki after being dragged away by the owl.

Well drunk Akira wasn't to bad either but... the whole Kaneki situation is really tense. I just want to know what exactly he thinks. Show me more of Amon and Akira after that please(it was a really cool episode. just was the wrong timing for it) but please finally clarify what is happening with Kaneki(and his friend. seriously what is his plan delivering stuff for/to CCG?) and Anteiku...

Guess I have to live with CCG character development for a little while >.>

I don't think she's really blaming him. She has been left all alone and she is lonely. After all, why would she cry on his back if she hated him? She needs support and consolation imo.

what would you expect? if you dont want some painful past, go watch bleach.

i dont get what people expect from a character. please try to understand instead of complaining.

and this episode was GODDAMN good. we saw some suzuya, some akira and amon. i hate the people who always want fight instead of character development.

of course, except for not showing kaneki much.

Suzuya has an ugly history. Thanks to Shinohara, he became an outstanding addition to the doves.

Yesterday I watched this episode..Juuzou's past was very crueful and sad, now everyone knows why he (or she) behaves in such a manner, by the way, what has the grandmother ghoul done to Juuzou? I speak of the censored scene when she took the bloody scissor and then Juuzou screamed, is that what I think?

RIP Juuzou's balls :(

I think the main reason I haven't found this frustrating like most people seem to, is because I've read the manga and I understand everything that is going on and its relevance to the plot. Honestly, other then Ken joining the other team nothing has really changed.

I really hope they change the manga ending though.

Ha! I think it's more like Cannibalism is dangerous especially for ghouls.
I mean, the taste is just... horrible though not horrible as humans food to them.
And, i see your point, Kaneki cannot escape his madness even when he joins Aogiri.
Or he will go crazier because he gets more ghouls meat?

Well, putting that aside. Didn't got a single damn idea about why people hate this episode.
Guess the watchers are only into action? meh. Then watch Mars of Destruction. It had action, minus
character development. Have fun, go wild with it.

Yes, the focus are on CCG. But that's about it. If they are done with the CCG part (and Juuzou. Poor Juuzou),
they continue with the ghouls part. And maybe more heavy action-oriented episode.
Happy action-only-b*tches?

Woah, I figured there must have been some tragic background for the way Juuzou acts but that was even more terrifying than I would have thought. I actually felt something for him, a surprise to me because some of the material that has been going on hasn't really affected me at all.

If amon had a boner for mado, I'm pretty sure he'd have one for his daughter since they're practically the same except his daughter is the female version of him. I knew the show was gonna show more about amon feels towards akira. He did push ups to avoid going with his other instincts most likely neat that akira picked up on his suppressed pervy intentions.

I really liked Juzo's segment this episode, officially my favorite character. Was funny when the dude was drunk in the restaurant, after that it kind of dragged a bit didn't really care for amon and the akira's scenes.

Edit: The censors kind of ruined Juzo's segment though lol
