Okay, so I'm very very veeery new to Anime but heard about Tokyo Ghoul being well-known before so I gave it a try and it certainly didn't disappoint! It took me a bit to get used to the violence and topics in this show because it was a lot darker than I originally thought but that was kind one of the things that made the show special and stand out to me now. I am not a regular horror watcher so what really appealed to me was the drama the main character Ken Kaneki is going through. The characters are spectacular. There are characters you love, like or can identify with as well as characters you hate or are morally gray and make you unsure how to feel about them. Every episode I thought: Okay I think I got this. I think I have no problem with the level of violence or shocking theme that is dealt with BUT then they pull out a new shocking thing to keep you thrilled and entertained. The pacing of the story is amazing and keeps you on the edge excited for more. I don't know if there is anything left to say for me. Watching Tokyo Ghoul has been an overall amazing, thrilling, heartbreaking, gut-wrenching experience that keeps you wanting more.
