Why didn't they just send Arima in the beginning? They suck without him.Also he has some cool weapons. They should give everyone those kind of weapons.

Well he had a cameo in S1, and he was heavily mentioned in Owl extermination meetings. There was also a flashback where Arima (the blue haired guy, his hair then changed to white) fought Yoshimura 10 years back. This was all in the anime but yeah, I get it where you're coming from.

They switched some events around but I enjoyed this episode none the less. Kaneki fight with Amon was ok. I feel the same If they did the same events I think I would have felt the same. Arima shows up and this just sent the episode in the right direction. So seems like they are just implying things since this episode would have been full of censors. But none the less this episode felt like on of the best to me this season.

Okay, I'm going to be honest here. I strongly dislike this episode. This episode supposed to be one of the most intense episode ever. Suzuya scenes was a huge letdown, he was never shown to be scared of Owl in the manga and got Shinohara saving his ass like that. Totally ruined his character imo. So, he didnt lose his leg but crumpled by steels and he got difficulty to move? This boy was the one who knitted his stomach and didnt feel any pain when his leg was chopped down, since when Suzuya had becoming this physically and probably mentally weak like this ?!

Kaneki's resolve to save Yoshimura was quite.. half-assed? I dont feel the desperation and struggle as shown in the manga. HideKane scene should be one of the biggest scene but in this episode.. eh, it was really underwhelming. Kaneki supposed to be in total despair and lost his mind to the point he didnt know whether he was just seeing thing or was hallucinating when Hide came to him.

Arima who? where's the Squad 0? Did they forget that Arima was somewhat in a 'mission'? His entrance was hella random and I wanna hear his voice commanding both his squad and his glorious quinques goddamnit u.u IXA and Narukami look way more badass in those white and black paper.

As much as I love Amon/Akira, they should tone down with their random scenes. They removed Seidou/Akira's intuition scene and decided to put those cheesy scenes instead. no Amon reminiscing about his life too, I'm really forward to him remembering Father since his relationship with Father is one thing I like the most about Amon.

what else... when will Touka reach her destination btw? It had been 2~3 episodes of her running now. oh hey there Ayato!

anyways, great ED card per usual. I really dig Akira/Mado illustration, both of them look lovely. That Eto card tho </3 Talk about her, I love her revelation scenes(altho I wasnt as hyped as before since they made her identity as clear as the sky) especially with her 'dadddy~' voice. Maaya Sakamoto totally suits her character.

Honestly I cant see where they're going to with this adaptation. I prefer it to be a total different ending so that it will destroy any possibility of :re getting animated.

Episode was okay. I feel it was too tame compared to the manga but the one thing I really love about the anime is the connections between the characters. Amon vs Kaneki scene should've been intense but it showed Amon understanding Kaneki's intentions and the fact that they could've been friends.

I really like how they're going about Hide and Kaneki reuniting. Looks like they'll be having a nice chat and hopefully Hide doesn't (presumably) get eaten by Kaneki like in the manga.

I'm gonna guess Touka will get into some trouble and Ayato will come help but will probably die.
I can't wait to see the finale. Keen to see how it'll possibly open for the 3rd season (if there will be one) because it's totally different from the manga. Hope Koma and Irimi survive.

How come the "Owl family" are like the only ghouls that don't really retain a human apperance? I mean They actually transform into something more monstrous while even kaneki's centipede you can tell it's still a human body.

Animation was suberb IMO.

Suzuya :'(
Tatara and Noro scenes were epic. Finally got to see Tatara's kagune.
Eto's voice was epic. She was beautiful at the end and more curvacious that I thought.
Amon and Kaneki...true bro fight.
Arima truly is a god among men.
Anteiku feels. Hide a true bro.

The ending art with Akira :3

It wasn't Kaneki's complete form. I sure even he would look like a monstrous centipede if his kakuja was complete.

Wow, so many anime deaths this Thursday.

Shinohara, Takizawa, possibly Amon..

The owl was pretty terrifying. Maaya Sakamoto's voice as Eto suits her so much, the director may have fucked the series up but the casting is perfect. I'm guessing Yoshimura is alive? I'm glad? Since he's my favorite. I wonder what will happen between Kaneki and Hide.

Last episode next week.

Because they are much more powerful, Kaneki only still has a half Kakuja while they have full ones.

I'm surprised many of you didn't realize that the real one eyed ghoul was Eto from the manga. I realized this way back in the first Tokyo Ghoul manga. They made it so obvious with subtle messages that she was the real one eyed ghoul.

I wonder what direction this is going in with one episode left will they really be able to wrap all the story lines up with sufficient depth?

And its still bothering me. How the fuck did Hide escape NORO!!!?

After quick reading the posts here, what did I missed in this episode? Am I really the only one who didnt read the manga?

Maybe I was hyping this episode too much during the last week, but imo it`s one of the worst so far. So many things wrong with it. And im not talking about the story which seems to be way to rushed.

This is what I've been telling you guys.
Ghouls are biological weapons developed by higher ups like Kanou and/or washuu and/or other top 1% of the population.
Since it got off hand, they themselves developed anti-ghouls equipments. Some fight back to stop the production and some stay in the organization (CCG).
Ghouls have learned to fight back to its parents (the one who made them, CCG or the Washuu family). And some even collaborated to the idea of "transforming into a superhuman" in order to survive or be at the top of the world by the CCG and ghouls.
Hence, here's the conclusion:
Washuu family, the bloodline behind CCG is somewhat grouped with (leaders) of Aogiri acting like they have the same goal but both parties know what's up with their minds and are actually planning to "eliminate" each other.
Therefore, they can't touch Hide. Since Hide is a Washuu. lol

it seems the anime is going for an anime original ending (that i actually like).

that juuzo, since when did he got afraid that shinohara had to save his ass and the desperation of juuzo to fight was shown poorly and also took so much screen time.

amon vs kaneki fight was really good thoroughly enjoyed it but still miss the centipede vs arata armor fight

hide taking kaneki inside anteiku and touka running I dont know where this all going but still have high hopes for anime original ending...

this show could have been great. great premise and what looked like great characters. but the character development was terrible. Also i cant get any sense of direction from the show. also the story doesnt depict well enough on what side we should be rooting for. all this show does good is kill of characters that could have been great if developed. it just goes for the tragic feeling. obviously there is much more to story after this, but i know why people hate this show much. they keep getting disappointed by how shit its turning out to be. Also it doesnt add to the fact that now a certain someone is going to get eaten before we even get to see his development. Also it doesnt help for Arima to be introduced so late in the fight and just be OP for 5 seconds. Also it sucks that Amon is killed of so fast (he could still be alive though).
This show just pisses me of but i still watch it hoping it will get better

this would be a good theory if it wasn't for the ghouls being around long before technology. Unless the ghouls are demons from the washuu family and the leader of CCG is a pure ghoul who is using humans to get rid of his families outcasts.

Cause of all the blood and corpses. the manga the flowers was corpses of ghouls around arima. the anime its the corpses of so many side/main characters and 100s of ghouls and ghoul investigators.

CCG got wrecked alot harder than they did in the manga,same with aogiri. So the last episode may be interesting.

I been spoiled by wikipedia , comments from people who read the manga, and facebook posts.

Despite this I am still looking forward to the next episode and how things play out for the season final.

I will say that all the manga reader complaints on the lesser gore in certain anime episodes than the manga, may take away from visual effects but the all in all feels of the series are well communicated. I think the emotions are worth it, the gore is just ehhhh shock value but if the gore continues consistently enough it gets old and the shock goes away.

Surprised that the manager was alive a the end too after the uh...regurgitating.

I cant see where this is going. But waking up in Anteiku part is much likely to be Kaneki's imagination.

Disappointments (spoilers from manga)
Juuzo's leg is broken instead of chopped off.
No kakuja armor for Amon.
No centipede Kaneki.
No v14? Seriously?
Since Kaneki didnt go crazy with his kakuja, he is not going to eat Hide?

How things are going to end in only 1 episode? I dont know...

This show has some of the worst coordinated and least intelligent group fight scenes with ghouls attacking investigators one by one as well as rushing into gunfire that is actually lethal for them.
