The world building is really interesting, and it gives a really chilling subtle vibe at times. Then it becomes a dull shonen gore fest

The suspense horror/dark fantasy story is set in Tokyo, which is haunted by mysterious "ghouls" who are devouring humans. People are gripped by the fear of these ghouls whose identities are masked in mystery. An ordinary college student named Kaneki encounters Rize, a girl who is an avid reader like him, at the café he frequents. Little does he realize that his fate will change overnight.

Its very fun to see Kaneki go insane in the first few episodes and then see how he deals with it. Recommended, good story with amazing music

Terrible in almost every way, chock full of edge and gore to the brim, most of which was censored in the TV release. Amazing.

SilvaDour

Edgy teen garbage. Watch Parasyte instead.

RexAnime

Teen angst, flesh eaters, and some cool Sci Fi dystopian stuff. As an intro to the series and the world, solid stuff.
