This review is based on what I've read in the 53 chapters that are out so far so everything should be taken within context,

Art: The art is decent. It definitely saw some improvement from the original series. it's difficult to understand sometimes but after reading it some time it becomes tolerable. Ishida picks his spots on where to show off his skills and you can tell in certain chapters. Not expecting quality like One Punch Man type because thats crazy to ask for but it's quite obvious Ishida picks his spots. 7/10

Story: I was quite skeptical about Tokyo Ghoul Re. In fact I held ... off of reading it for about a year since it came out. I was disappointed in not seeing the main Protagonist Kaneki instead we see someone else. But, after returning, Sasaki has grown on me quite alot. The story itself is done very well. Amazing foreshadowing. We see content that is foreshadowed in part 1 even in the early stages of part 1 taking fruition in the current story. The planning is God tier level and it's what makes TG great in general. Each chapter may require several readings in order to fully understand whats going on. For other manga I find it tedious and annoying having to read a chapter over again. Tokyo Ghoul is actually fun to research about and to see fellow fans theory craft. Nothing is spoon-fed. Ishida really understands how to make a series great without the need of constant action. The Dialogue between characters always has meaning. Even if it's not obvious the first time reading the dialogue between characters a few weeks or months down the line or even years down the line it will make sense.


Characters: The Characters are very realistic and they're not what you see in typical manga. They are complex and they all have goals and desires. There is no Black or White with characters. Even the main Characters is quite grey. The characters are written in such a way that it's highly possible to meet a character like this on the street. I wouldn't put it in Doestoyevsky's level of characterization but for a weekly series it's top notch. Each character is relatable and even the ones we dislike are humanized further emphasizing the gray aspect of the series. The characters are evolving and don't remain Flat and stagnant and the development in each character is a joy to behold.

Overall TG is about to join my list of GOAT tier manga. It's quite amazing. The fans on the internet are all curious and are always finding things that go unnoticed. If the Story or Chapter or series in general is confusing, the forum is always available and there are some good reviewers on youtube that do a good job on delivering the knowledge. It's definitely a must read!
