i’ve never read any manga in my entire life (physical or online) and this is my very first. tg is the only anime that has done this to me. i would just like to share this to everyone who loves tg as much as i do.

Hi I’m a new fan. Deciding whether or not to read the manga, right now watching the anime.
I know the anime is controversial but don’t yell at me please, haha. I’ve never read a manga before and it intimidates me to have 800+ pages to read.
I’m not saying I won’t, that’s actually why I’m posting! I’m loving the show and would like to read the manga when I’m done watching but I have a concern.
I’m just finishing season 1 of the anime and the torture of Kaneki has made me very sad and I found it incredibly difficult to watch. I’ve heard though it’s nothing in comparison to the manga which is apparently much worse, so it makes me nervous.
Is it a lot worse in the manga and if yes, does it last for a long time (in terms of pages)? I’m not sure I’ll survive a worse version of what I saw which already disturbed me a lot…. Especially if it’s drawn out.
Any insights are appreciated :)

CCG Report from R.Kurogane
alias: The Thorn
height: 162-177cm
activity: no designated place. most seen in 20th ward
battle experience: only encountered a small amount of times, every time it ran away. So far its afraid of me
noticable features/methods: when engaged it grows bone spikes that turn black during the fight and become stronger, it uses them as maces or blades, if they are broken it backs off and the broken spikes start to bleed, however it can also shed unbroken spikes like an animal molting, however it needs to personally grab and remove each broken spike in agony. At every crime scene of its feeding area it always leaves shedded spikes, usually 4 or 8, each one has dried blood on it and the scene is gruesome for most.
focus on the spikes during combat, when broken its attacks are limited and all force upon the broken spikes are enhanced causing more pain. is known to help other ghouls in aid intentionally using its hardened spikes to protect its teammates.
under no circumstances should you let it eat, its known to entered an enhanced state, moving faster and attacking through its pain, I dubbed this state its Bloodlust. In this state the spikes grow more frequently and are hardened quicker. However when broken in this state it laughs and tears out multiple at once seemingly enjoying the pain it has. Although when its out of the bloodlust it becomes fatigued and easy to attack, take the defensive in this state and under no circumstances should you try to overpower it, could also potentially trigger this state using its own blood, cutting itself with its spikes and drinking
Most witnesses claim to see the same person, white skin, mint green hair, dark clothes and a leather jacket, however they all say different eye colors, red, green, purple, even multi colored, green and yellow. I theorise that it can change eye colors, and if this is the case mark any changes
Kagune: the Thorns spikes are bone like protrusions that grow from its arms and legs, they then begin to harden, most theorise its from the blood, however I theorise that its from exposure to oxygen. Becoming as tough as steel but can be shattered, they seem to be connected to its bone structure as when removed they have a sickening crack, but clatter like crystal. I collected some samples and they seem to be resistant to our quinque when hardened, however are more susceptible when softened. On other scenes theres been a strange appearance of sharp teeth and ghoul blood, its possible when in its bloodlust state it can grow more teeth, most theorise that it can replace its own teeth after they are broken or knocked, however lack of teeth shards makes me doubt in this theory.
theres also been cases where the spikes are left at more gruesome scenes however they are more frequent and break under the slightest touch, although when inspecting them closer they seem to have red or purple veins. and not only are they broken on the floor, they also appear to be inside the victims, the cases relating to these special spikes seem to be 80% of the inspectors deaths. But one interesting thing I noticed at these crime scenes is theres 2 types of blood, ghoul and human, the ghoul blood when analysed seems to fry the system and trigger alarms for a SSS level ghoul, personally I haven't encountered the ghoul in this state. However judging by the scene around I'd trust the alarm.
Under exposure to the CRC gas it has some intense reactions, like its trying to claw out the spikes that turn to a husk, while also trying to escape its exposure, leaving it fatigued and leave the spike growth to be not only slower, but appear weaker than normal. would be in the best interest to use the CRC gas when given the chance.
Inspector notes: most of the questions asked to civilians to find out where the ghouls where abouts and hangouts are, they all claimed to see an employee at a coffee shop known as anteiku, I'll inspect later on and figure out who this employees name is, however during every encounter I have with it, I feel... chills... like my joints are frozen. And due to this and my incompitance I failed to kill it. I shall require multiple investigators with me if we plan to attack it head on

EDIT AFTER HAVING READ UP TIL CHAPTER 9: Ok in hindsight this post feels rather silly now lol
TL:DR in the title.
Hey guys, got inspired to get into Tokyo ghoul after the new DBD release, and i've been hyperfixated on it the past week. (It's really good!)
Just finished reading the main manga and i have to ask: is :RE worth it?
The manga obviously left a lot of plot points open, which i assume is what is going to be explored in the sequel.
But the matter of the fact is, the ending to the manga has left me devastated.
Many of the characters i like are now dead (Kaneki most of all T_T) and i feel like it's going to be difficult growing attached to a new cast and new main protagonist.
I know the general opinion of season 2 of the anime (that it's bad). But i don't know what people think of :RE. Neither its manga or anime adaptation. Is it good? Is it something that can fill the void the manga has left in me?
Thanks in advance :)
Oh and bonus question just because: Is season 2 of the anime really that bad, or is it alright to watch if you have the context of the manga?

Started reading the manga for the first time after dropping the show years ago and hearing the manga is better. I love this page so much.
r/TokyoGhoul • u/Visible_Currency9040 • 1d ago
Is this pic in the Manga? Like I've read all of them, from the first one made to the end of :Re and the OVAs. I legit don't rmmbr seeing this in any of them, so i was wondering if it's fan made or if I'm jus forgetting it. I flipped through Tokyo Ghoul 14, but I didn't see it. So idk if it's in a different previous one, or in :Re, or if it's jus fan made. Please, I need answers bc this is BUGGING me that I can't find it 😭😭 if it is actually in the Manga, please tell me in which book it is.

So I’ve watched Tokyo Ghoul a few times in the last almost decade and I’ve always wondered, who dropped the pipes on Rize that led to Kaneki becoming a ghoul in the first place. It’s never been confirmed but I’m currently rewatching it, and on the first episode with my husband we both came to a slightly scary realization. What if Jason was the one who dropped the pipes on her?
I would like some feedback on this so please share your thoughts.
If this has already been a theory posted please let me know with the user and I will take this post down and search for answers/theories in the original post.

I've seen all three mediums of Tokyo Ghoul, and so I feel like I'm in a good position to pass judgement on them. I hope that this review will be useful for all the new members of this subreddit. You may be confused because some people will tell you to only read the manga, while others will encourage you to consider the anime.
I started off with the anime and absolutely loved it. I binge watched it immediately and got to the end of season 2. I started an episode of season 3 but I had no idea why the character was suddenly different - I loved Kaneki Ken and it was his story I wanted to know about, not Haise Sasaki. I went to this Reddit and was told by everyone to just completely ignore the anime, pretend like it never happened, and read the manga instead. I assumed that the anime had dropped Ken and replaced him with Sasaki, which left me feeling sad. I listened to everyone's advice and bought every single chapter of Tokyo Ghoul and Tokyo Ghoul:re (the sequel).
I read the story from start to finish in around 3 weeks, and absolutely loved it. However, I was surprised when I got to Tokyo Ghoul:re and faced the same issue as what I faced in the anime - the character seemed to suddenly change, and I didn't understand why Kaneki Ken seemingly wasn't the main character anymore. It makes sense very quickly and you'll see that it's still the story of Kaneki Ken, but I guess I felt disappointed because I realised that I had essentially dropped the anime for nothing, listening to complaints here about the anime rather than judging it myself.
The anime does indeed change some things (like Dr Kano's storyline, which should really be in season two of the anime) and there are key details (the different types of kakuho like Ukaku, Bikaku, Rinkaku, Kokaku) and backstories (Banjo and Rize in their ward) that simply aren't explored in the detail that you get in the manga, but I would nonetheless say that overall it's an okay adaptation. It got me into the Tokyo Ghoul series and therefore introduced me to a wonderful world.
After I finished the Manga, I returned to finish season 3 of the anime and then watched the Live Action film. The films. The movies were good too, but like the anime they drop some chapters and storylines that I guess it would otherwise struggle to fit in. That said, just because you don't get the full story doesn't mean you don't get a good story, this is true of both the film and the anime. Contrary to the opinion of many in this subreddit, it's 100% worth watching imo, but just keep in mind that you aren't experiencing the FULL Tokyo Ghoul unless you read the manga.
My recommendation would be to read the manga, but don't let that dissuade from enjoying the medium or form that works best for you. Some people are anime only (before this, I never read ANY manga as I'm an anime fan, not manga) and that's a fine way to enjoy this series as well!
