If you liked Tokyo Ghoul add

...then you might like Ajin add

Both of these series deal with a main character rejected by society. As is the case with Kaneki, Kei is deemed as an unsightly being that needs to be "eradicated", or, in the words of the residents of Japan, "locked up and taken care of by the government". Both protagonists dance a fragile line between staying themselves and being what everyone else believes they are. Both are in hiding and both lose a bit of their humanity somewhere along the line. But unlike Tokyo Ghoul, Ajin doesn't completely screw over the second season (okay, maybe there's like one scene that could've been better). All in all, it's one of my favorite series out there. Don't let the animation throw you off - it actually grows on you! A must watch!
