I have been reading the Tokyo ghoul:re manga since the beginning and, so far, I really enjoyed it, mostly because of the Tsukiyama Arc. Subsequently, my excitement with the adaptation announcement was expected, but, when the time came, the anime gave me a single impression: pathetic.
The disappointment began when the PV's were released, and here is where I start.
ART: 1
My eyes are still hurting from this stupid animation, it is exacly like those fan animations and I'm not even joking (I don't mean to offend anyone who does fan animations, it is only that I expected more than a beginner's work from a big studio).
...
STORY: 4
Once again, the problem with a Tokyo Ghoul adaptation is the small amount of episodes for a large number of chapters, but this time the solution was quite different and really worse. Instead of cutting some parts, they decided to put everything, however, they reduced the amount of time per scene, leaving an impression of lack of development and resulting in odd rushed passages. Honestly, I couldn't take anything seriously, because it all seemed so ridiculous. Even the parts in the manga that were precious to me and made me so emotional were completely laughable. Another thing is, if you hadn't read the manga, it's impossible to understand it. They put too much information in a short time.
SOUND: 6
I liked both opening and ending. At least this they made it right. Even so, the rest of the soundtrack was kind of "meh" and that one moment that Unravel started to play was very cringey. After all, I think the time was inappropriate and the song was put only to create emotion over a poorly executed scene.
CHARACTER: 3
I really like the Tokyo Ghoul:re characters, but, just like I said on the story part, you can't absorve it with such a rushed timeline. There's no real development whatsoever and the ones who only watched the anime can't remember anyone.
ENJOYMENT: 2
In a short explanation, it only made me angry and cringe a lot.
OVERALL: 2
When all these thing I talked about come together, it results in a big mess and I seriously can't see how anyone enjoyed it.
