So, am I basically saying that I liked this series more than expected? Absolutely. Though I suppose I can only speak for volume one, so far. It was a morbid yet fun twist on the whole ghoul thing, with some excellent character development along the way.
I think if you are like me and had a similar experience with the Tokyo Ghoul anime then you must give the Tokyo Ghoul manga a shot. Volume 1 starts off on an incredibly high point and I am super excited to read even more. Reading the manga gives me a newfound love for these characters and this story. In a way reading this volume took me all the way back to the first time I watched the Tokyo Ghoul anime. This time it really is as good as I think it is.
The Tokyo Ghoul story is split into two parts: Tokyo Ghoul and Tokyo Ghoul:re. The initial series, Tokyo Ghoul, consists of 14 manga volumes and 143 chapters. Tokyo Ghoul:re, the sequel, comprises 16 manga volumes and 179 chapters.
Ken Kaneki awakens anew with a fresh urge for the blood of those who wronged him. The monstrous strength he discovers within himself serves him well in protecting Touka and the other ghouls who sought to help him. After insuring their safety, he breaks away from the Ghouls who sheltered him so he can search for the truth behind what happened the night when Rize died.
Written and illustrated by Sui Ishida, Tokyo Ghoul is a dark fantasy manga taking place in a world where Ghouls live among us. Ghouls are a cannibalistic humanoid race that can only eat human and other ghoul flesh. So, ghouls regularly attack humans to feed. The government tries to keep the situation under control with a special entity called the GCC and its investigators who specialize in exterminating ghouls.
Ken Kaneki was an ordinary college student with a passion for literature when a violent encounter turns him into the first half-human half-ghoul hybrid. Trapped between two worlds, he must survive Ghoul turf wars, learn more about Ghoul society and master his new powers.
After Chapters 45/46, you can read the spin-off prequel Tokyo Ghoul: Jack. The story is set years before the original manga and centered around Kishou Arima, a high school student by day and a ghoul investigator by night. This will serve as an introduction to some characters. You can also choose to read that story after chapter 79 (after having met those characters) or better, between the original manga and the sequel. Obviously, for a more chronological order, it is to read before the original manga, but it is not advised on a first reading.
