What you should know before watching Tokyo Ghoul
What is Tokyo Ghoul about?
Tokyo Ghoul follows the story of Ken Kaneki who is a young university student who is quite lonely and shy, he only has one friend who is exactly the opposite of him, Although Kaneki used to need a lot of help from Hideyoshi Nagachika, towards the end of the story the roles are reversed.
A bad day, Rize, a beautiful girl invites him out, after a very pleasant walk, she approaches him but not to give him a kiss, but to devour him, However, a beam falls on them and saves Kaneki, who is immediately taken to the hospital where they transplant an organ from the girl.
At home, Kaneki begins to have the urge to consume blood. He lives in a world where ghouls exist, they are a species of predators of humans.they have special abilities that allow them to hunt them and because of this there is also a special organization to exterminate them.
After the incident, Kaneki is a new creature, he is neither human nor ghoul, he remains in limbo without belonging anywhere but needing both worlds, like he used to be human, he resists the idea of eating his kind, but he doesn’t know that Rize has an unmatched thirst for blood, after all, she is one of the most respected ghouls in the world. powerful, belongs to an important clan.
The story of Tokyo Ghoul It begins with an overwhelming panorama in which we see the protagonist search for a new role for his existence. Between fear and worry, Kaneki will have to survive and to his surprise there is a cafeteria with ghouls who have no intention of devouring humans and have found a vampire way to survive. The boy will find a new home but his ghoul flesh will not make his existence so easy, since many want Rize’s power, which they can only acquire by devouring her. However, Kaneki will not only face ambitious ghouls, but also a human organization that has intervened to possess more power with the motivation of exterminating the ghouls.
Thus, Kaneki will have to face different scenarios that will force him to fight to survive while he goes through a personal conflict wondering what he is doing in the world, and if he has a place to belong.
The positive thing about this story is that the protagonist manages to find a path and a new space and lives in peace. Tokyo Ghoul It is interesting because it will make you think about how and why different types of societies are destined to fight while we find a point of balance to coexist. If you saw the recent Planet of the Apes movie you will get more in the mood.
What is Tokyo Ghoul: Re about?
If you liked the premise of Tokyo Ghoul perhaps you can understand the RE title as a kind of inversion of the original story and this one stars Haise Sasaki who leads a Quinx squad that must face the ghouls, however, his squad is young and difficult to control, powerful people are complicated and perhaps the ghouls can divide them to finish them off. It will be a great action story!
The series of Tokyo Ghoul:Re It follows a young cast, but not only in learning skills, but goes further, what is a ghoul? In fact, the teacher who guides the characters will constantly wonder how ghouls work and why. It should be noted that, like Kaneki, he is a hybrid being who remembers some things from the past, could the mystery take us to an interesting place?
History belongs to the universe Tokyo Ghoul and it could bring us several characters that we already knew, although it works as a kind of fan service, it is also located in a timeline of a more or less immediate future of the original series, so it is interesting to see how and how possible It’s been things changing in Kaneki’s world.
Is Tokyo Ghoul: Re good?
If you are a fan of Tokyo Ghoulyou should definitely watch RE’s deliveryHowever, if you’re just looking for what to watch, let me tell you that, honestly, from the human-eating monsters, to the ideological conflict of what it means to be human and what makes us human, there are much better titles, so I don’t think it’s a title “Well”; Although if you are starting to have the same doubts and don’t want something very heavy, you should definitely take a look at it.
It should be noted that, with the above, I am not referring only to the Re saga, but to the title in general.
