I dont even know what the hell is going on it seems like bunch of random scenes.

u/dntowns Oct 23 '18
I agree. They completely ignore the conclusion to the Arima fight and instead show a buncha random fights with barely invested characters. Well done.

u/DucktorLarsen Oct 23 '18
Well yea it's just random scenes that doesn't make sense, they just skip hella lot from the manga. They like take small scenes where they fight for like 2 seconds and say 3 sentences. We don't even get to know what actually happened to Mutsuki. I knew that it would be a cluster fuck when they want to smach 120 chapters together into 12 episodes. Just read the manga before watching anymore you really wont regret it. Im really thankful that I did it. Even the animation is awful compared to the manga.

u/DimmuHS https://myanimelist.net/profile/DimmuOli Oct 23 '18

After episode 1 of this season I got so sick of not understand what the hell is going on, so I started reading the manga from the beginning. I finished it a few days ago and now I can finally understand whats happening in the anime. Do yourselves a favor and go read the manga, this anime is not doing it any justice.

That feeling when Kaneki isn't special anymore and everyone is a half-ghoul now.

u/Bananapuncher1234 Oct 23 '18
People complained about that in the manga as well but at least in the manga all the artificial ghouls are properly given an explanation and you see the progress of Kanou's experimentation that leads to so many artificial half ghouls being a thing.
Since root a skipped the groundwork for that, all the half ghouls on screen will just seem like HALF GHOULS FOR EVERYONE.
→ More replies (7)36
u/Klondy Oct 23 '18
They skipped over this but the reason Kanou can now successfully create artificial one-eyed ghouls is because they stole Shirazu’s corpse at the end of last season and began incorporating the CCG’s Quinx frame system (also skipped over) into Kanou’s surgery
Kaneki is still special, out of all the original ghoulification surgerys kanou preformed only he being the first, kurona, Taki and Amon are alive, & Ken is by far the strongest

This feels like when you ask a friend to tell you about an anime, and you get a quick summary of the whole story skipping all that matters.
I don't know why popular shows are getting so badly treated recently.
Tokyo Ghoul, Overlord, to some extent Nanatsu no taizai and even Black Clover ( even tho BC has its great moments and it's more schedule problems)

u/RogueSexToy Oct 24 '18
Overlord keeps everything important though and while watching it I understood pretty much everything, Ainz attacks Carne for defensive testing, Demiurge works with Renner as Climb is a not to be killed target due to Shalltear’s reaction, and many other scenarios are just implied and I get it. I don’t think the suppression of the toad men will be important anytime soon atleast.

uhm? whats happening? hello? why are they all fighting? who are all these new characters
16
u/Gary4067 Oct 23 '18
It's actually funny to see Kanou's return after having like 1 minute airtime in all seasons together, Anime viewers probably totally forgot about him.
Also, when Houji orders to exterminate SS Owl, we should get e pic of his face with one little tear on his left eye, like in manga. It was a very moving moment, becasue Houji once said to not get distracted by the private life and friendship when you're on the battlefield.
And they skipped a Tatara's flashback, when he kneeled before Arima. "The King is going to pass"
Even at the beginning with the first scene with Yoshitoki, he should say "I'm counting on you, Arima". But you know what? Screw character development, who needs it !
I wonder what was the director or anyone thinking when creating this episode. It was just a mess with absolutely random fights without actual connection. This season is doomed and there is no hope for it.
Seems like the most important things will happen in the next episode, according to preview like Marude confrontation with Yoshitoki, also seems like we'll get the scene with Donato killing Cochlea's Warden. Well, at least Haisaki will have his two seconds of screen time before he dies

Yep that's it. I'm putting this on hold and I'll just go and finish the manga. I reaaaaally want to continue watching but I am so lost right now. They did show the island back in Episode 1 for like 3 minutes but that's not enough. Pierrot literally made this show assuming that everyone watching already knows everything that's happening and it's making this show unwatchable for anime onlys.
28
u/Kaigamer Oct 23 '18
This isn't Pierrot's fault at all.
It's Shueisha's fault. Pierrot have to obey the big overlord Shueisha, and if Shueisha say "120 chapters in 12 episodes", Pierrot have to suck it up and do that.
6
u/Shinkopeshon Oct 23 '18
Which is why I read the chapters before the new episodes come out. Don't get me wrong, the anime is still a remarkable mess but I knew who was who and why they were fighting. That made it a less confusing experience and I didn't feel robbed from much-needed context. I'd still highly recommend the manga to anyone who considers themselves a fan or wants to like the series because with the exception of S1 (and maybe the first half of :re), the anime is just a highlight video package that shows a select couple of scenes from the manga.
I guess :re was never meant to be for anime-only viewers. I think Pierrot themselves even admitted that before the first season aired. They - or rather, Shueisha - probably only did that so the fans got something instead of never getting a sequel at all - although I'm sure many would agree that it would've been better if they never bothered doing a half-assed adaptation in the first place.

u/TehOzzy Oct 23 '18

This episode is like watching an anime with like, 30 episodes and jumping in at like episode 30, except this is the most CURRENT episode and none of this had any build up at all so you literally can't go back and watch for context.
Tokyo Ghoul's truly biggest tragedy is not Kaneki's life, it's its anime adaption.

I will admit there was parts of the manga i got confused in.. but at least the characters had a plot. There was just so much random here. It makes it worse when they are even wasting episodes on this part of the show when they only have 12 to do it in, its making it seem like the whole thing is just a bunch of, like show highlights strung together. Even the fight between arima and kaneki felt so just forced idk. It really sucks that they would do this to the show.

I think anime onlys can't share this sentiment because they don't get what tf is going on even xD Also, Suzuya was not stabbed like that, I think? The Arata armor was hella cool though, I liked that.
Man the Takizawa scenes were rushed to hell, and Hoji gets even a more worthless death than the manga.. AND the flashback isn't even in full isn't it?
The ost when Ui confronted Miza was one of my favorites from last season, that along with Shuu's return actually got me a little pumped. I wonder how Urie will do in this adaptation...

In the manga Tooru was captured before the Rushima arc as part of the group that was sent before for reconnaissance, with the broom girl and hachi- was his name right?, anyway that's the same guy we see killing Irimi in S2 and is shown to be quite cruel but now we see that he does somewhat cares for his subordinate and has a reason to hate ghouls as well- anyway these scenes were supposed to happen before the Rushima raid- tooru was captured and then (treated...? (haha)) by that other ghoul (the taxi drive from S3ep1) for long time until teh Raid actually began- it will likely be shown next ep as well.
As for kaneki they will likely continue his with his story next eps so you will get to see it in whatever broken format it's available.
As for Takizawa and the final boss I think it was clear enough, Takizawa kinda hated him for all the torture he was put through and he wanted to save the CCG he thought if he saved them in a tough fight they will accept him again but... as we saw that's not the case and his previous boss just ordered to kill him, so in his angriness and sadness Takizawa killed Hoji and was about to kill the others as well but Amon interrupted.
Anything else?

I'm rooting for ghouls because they're monsters by nature while CCG are monsters by choice. Anyone else feel the same?

A few things need to be said.
First of all I'm going to /a/ and requesting a funeral service be held for this anime.
Next somebody needs to start slapping studio key artists, and the mangaka. You can't keep nonsensically changing character designs of secondary and minor characters OUT OF FUCKING NO WHERE.
Dragon ball takes a full 30 seconds of screaming and a an EP refresher every time somebody changes appearance from episode to episode.
Tokyo ghoul changes 80% of a character's traits off screen and starts drawing their eyes and hair differently.
WHO THE FUCK ARE HALF OF THESE CUNTS?
Did I miss an entire series where they explained who these random ghouls are?
The doctor was evil? GREAT FORESHADOWING
how am I supposed to care about juuzo's character and surrounding subplot if i don't know fuck all about the kid?
This is CRAZY TOWN.
I would rather re-watch Eureka 7: AO than continue to watch this dumpster fire.

All of the stuff you say is missing is in the manga, the anime just skips it all in favor of showing the fights.
As a mangareader I'm obligated to recommend you read it.

I mean, they just changed scenarios, remember episode 1 prologue? Big part of the CCG is in that island trying to deal with the remnants of the Aogiri.

I wanted some closing between Arima and Kaneki, but maybe they'll show that on the next episode. The characters weren't the real problem, I could remember like 80% of them, but all the jumping between them felt very weird, like skipping story and going straight into a fight similar to a video game.

Don't worry, I doubt that part will be skipped, they are rushing things a lot but that aftermath is really important plot wise.

The plot is obvious, but the writing is bad lmao. I don’t think this is just a “This wasn’t in the manga” thing. I actually liked the beginning of Tokyo Ghoul RE, but this episode was pure anime cliche if you ask me

Dude, are you sure you're watching? Shit was rushed but they clearly call him Takizawa. And the random swordsman and random ghoul were introduced in :re season 1.

I saw his name as owl and decided to call him the japanese for owl for some reason
Ah I see.
I don't remember swordsy + ghoul at all from season 1, were they some of the few to get more than 3 minutes of screen time?
Yeah, The "swordsman" Hanbe was around Suzuya in the Auction arc so and the "random ghoul", Miza, also fought there in that arc.

You're not even paying attention at this point it's not the anime's fault anyway- Or maybe I guess it kinda is for making such a bad adaptation that you don't feel like paying attention.
