Hello beautiful people, how is your Sunday? What new movies or series have you seen? Today I am going to tell you about an anime that I really liked.
Tokyo Ghoul is a Japanese animation series based on the self-titled manga created by Sui Ishida serialized in seinen Young Jump magazine, with weekly delivery since September 2011. Compiled in 14 volumes. The series features four seasons, each made up of twelve episodes.
SYNOPSIS:
It is a horror production with explicit violence and a supernatural setting that presents a city in Tokyo in which innocent people die at the hands of "ghouls", mysterious creatures who feed on human flesh. The protagonist is Kaneki Ken, a young current who fortuitously survives the attack of a ghoul, however, to get ahead, the organs of the ghoul of which he was a victim were transplanted. Therefore, his life changes radically as he becomes a hybrid between human and ghoul.
SEASONS:
Tokyo Ghoul: Kaneki becomes a half Ghoul and half Human, from now on he must live hiding from humans with no one to turn to. He meets some Ghouls who work in a cafeteria and finds out that they survive on coffee, since coffee is the only taste that both share. During the course of the story Kaneki will meet new companions and see the dark side of both humanity and the Ghouls.
Tokyo Ghoul √A: This second season would have an alternative story to the manga, and it would not be an adaptation of it. This Kaneki, oddly enough, is much more peaceful and intelligent than his manga counterpart. Although he has the same goal of defending his loved ones, instead of eradicating them, this Kaneki does not want to kill anyone. So we have a clear message on which to build the work: Unification or, to put it another way, we are all the same. Regardless of what we eat, for everything else, we all feel the same.
Tokyo Ghoul: re Is a sequel that started in 2018 and was established two years after the events of the original series. The sequel follows GCC member Haise Sasaki and leader of a special squad of investigators who have implanted the GCC's special weapon, the Quinque, into their bodies and have essentially become half ghoul. However, the problem is that Haise is actually Ken Kaneki from the original series who suffers from amnesia. This was divided into two seasons and is the final arc of the masterful manga.
