It's funny, I actually started this anime with the full intention of having fairly low expectations, but somehow ended up being critical after all. Typing it out, that doesn't seem like a lot to me, but there's a lot of new characters and story building that goes into those 21 chapters. I get that they can't get everything, but sometimes it seems like they aren't getting anything.įor reference they just finished chapter 21, or the start of volume 3. They're all just kinda slapped in the anime, instead of growing with the plot or what have you. Without these small details as well, there is barely any character depth or relationship between the characters. Character interaction > character development/bonds > etc. Y'know, instead of these still frames we're getting. They could've even made it to where characters each other's actions. These moments aren't even happening because everything is being driven along so fast. TG is largely character driven, and that happens when characters interact with each other. One volume per episode is pretty bad considering how much content is in one volume. The best thing that may or may not have fixed this was to simply not stuff whatever end goal they're trying to stuff into the season. While watching it, things don't actually seem so bad, but the longer I think about it and the more I remember about the earlier chapters, the more I realize how out of sync it is, even though it's following the manga. Someone else described it as a summary of each volume, but it isn't even that because major points are completely omitted! I can't even imagine what it's like for non-manga readers, and didn't even consider this perspective. It feels slow because in my eyes nothing serious is happening. A coherent adaptation of the story was nowhere near my list of reasons to watch the show, because the chances of getting that are so incredibly slim. I'm just a long for the ride, getting to see the characters move around (sometimes), music, voice acting, and hopefully getting to see some cool scenes in motion. We aren't getting a faithful adaptation here. We already have two seasons of reference to look back on. This seems on par with Root A's quality, maybe even worse.Įxpecting a remotely faithful adaptation of the story is just setting yourself up for disappointment. We definitely aren't getting anything even close to the quality of the first season. Last episode really put a bad taste in my mouth. Tokyo has become a cruel and merciless citya place where vicious creatures called 'ghouls' exist alongside humans. Then the animation we do get, which is very few and far between, is incredibly stiff.

So many fight scenes are just a still frame with the camera panning to give the "illusion" of movement, and sprinkle some VFX in there. There was hardly any animation at all last episode. There are so many still frames, SOOO many still frames. The biggest thing I'm disappointed with is the quality of animation. Related: The most disappointing popular anime series. When you listen to Chozetsu Dynamic, I think you’ll agree that it joins the high ranks of its predecessors.

All puns aside, the Dragon Ball series boasts some of the most beloved theme songs, like Dragon Ball Z’s Cha-La Head-Cha-La. It looks like we don't have a Synopsis for this title yet. Brawl Stars Animation: Pipers Sugar and Spice but the audio is replaced with the Tokyo Ghoul Opening Theme Song. Realizing what has become of him, Kaneki is forced to adapt to his new lifestyle whilst avoiding two relentless police officers who want to exterminate all ghouls from their ward. Set in a world where humans live in constant fear of ghouls - superpowered humanoid beings who feed on human flesh to survive, a shy college student named Kaneki Ken, who is nearly killed in an attack by one of these monsters, becomes a half-ghoul himself after receiving an organ transplant from the ghoul. Now Kaneki must have a new life hiding his identity among the dark streets of Tokyo. Thus, the meaning derived from what they (the ones who selected this song for the OP) deduced in relation to Tokyo Ghoul must be considered. Tells the story of Ken Kaneki, a university student, who after being attacked by a ghoul (supernatural beings who survive eating human flesh and hide in the secret among humans) manages to save himself by a transplant that makes him half-ghoul. If this song was not 'meant' for Tokyo Ghoul, one must then think of the purpose it was chosen to represent it through the lens of the producers who fit it into the themes of Tokyo Ghoul.
