>implying you can read
The art and the story throughout the first 14 volumes gets progressively better, and is still one of my all time favorites. :RE on the other hard starts slow, but still manages to keep you interested. It peaks during the Rose arc (chapter ~60) where you will notice a slight drop in quality in the following chapters, but nothing too bad that would make you quit the manga. When the second half starts, is where stuff is really going down the shitter: Characters starting to get offscreened one after another, Art gets worse (this is also party due to the author switching from digital to analog for his characters to speed things up, which he had never done before) and one of the bigger problems is probably the fact that he introduced way too many characters so he failed to satisfyingly tie up all of them into the story. With that said, most of us had to wait a week for a new chapter so that probably also played a huge role in how people judged the series. Now that you can just read through it in few sessions, you could give it a try a judge for yourself.
Anime was nice so i guess manga is very good.
yes
/thread
Tokyo ghoul? Yes
Tokyo ghoul re? No
Yeah don't listen to the mindbroken Yea Forumsnons who resorted to spamming clown pictures though
If you already liked the anime, then you're gonna love the manga even more. It's easily one of the most butchered adaptations in anime history and completely shits on the source material
No.
Thanks for taking the effort to answer the OP. I keep seeing this picture and want to pick it up. I could only stomach the first two episodes of the anime before I wrote the whole series off.
Read tokyo ghoul then skip all the :re shit and only read the last chapter of it.
listen to this user
also I reread the whole series recently, and the last arcs of :re weren't as bad as i remembered, probably because you can remember all the characters, plus i knew what to expect
this is actually from one of the last chapters
??
i would sacrifice half the human population for a proper adaptation
Why? Manga is a superior form in every way, except music i guess
the worst parts of :re are nearly not as bad as the stuff you'd get from other weekly series these days, just take a look at one piece or bnha for example
>chain down ishida
>make him hand draw every frame with traditional media
>drug him and brianwash him with every torture for best possible results
Arima's death and Kaneki's domestic abuse revelation were as good as the first part of the manga
It's a pretty nice story but suffers from too many characters and way too much exposition. The first part is worth it though, but the second one turns the earlier problems up to 11.
Didn't he draw storyboards for Root A that ended up not being used?
>(this is also party due to the author switching from digital to analog for his characters to speed things up
is there a real sauce for this
Yeah, it was mentioned in the latest artbook. When he commented on the cover of volume 9, he said:
>From this point on, the idea of “How can I finish my manuscript quickly?” greatly occupied my mind. I think it was around this time that work for another series (the game) came in. If I remember correctly.
>I had been drawing fully digital this entire time, but for this volume I experimented by interweaving digital with analog. We live in an era crazy about speed.
>However, because I couldn’t control the screen anymore, I had a rough time drawing this volume.
>I used a G pen to draw the characters. The line drawings were uploaded with the scanner, and I finished the final touches digitally.
>Since it doesn’t take a lot of time to write the storyboard, during this period I could finish the manuscript in 2.5 days, and set aside 4 days for other work.
>Thinking about the manga now, it would’ve been better if I’d spent my extra time focusing on it, but back then I thought doing this would be the best.
>This volume is the only volume where the characters were entirely drawn in analog. Since then, it has changed to drawing in analog for quick things, and for things that need to be drawn with more skill, drawing it first in analog before going to digital.
That should explain why the art takes a noticeable nosedive from this volume onward, because he was still experimenting with this new method.
I forgot to add that it was translated by this guy, he translates most of the stuff Ishida does

These are the 3 covers Ishida drew for the Touken Ranbu musical play book. He also mentioned that he used these characters to study designs, because he sucked at character designs. Thought some of you would be interested.
Read Tokyo Ghoul. Do not read Tokyo Ghoul Re:
Pleb opinion, the first half of :RE is easily as good as the later parts of the OG, if not better.
it is unironically good if you read it in one go you're lucky it's finished
this, the weekly format is fucking shit
Thanks. It's weird cause I though it's the digital mode of doing things that was supposed to save time but the more you know I guess.
Just finished Happiness recently and i feel like thats what Tokyo Ghoul should be instead of the fighting route bullshit.
>Happiness
Wasn't this one of the series Ishida recommended reading?
