Tokyo Ghoul is another one of those anime. But it might with others so watch with caution if you are not into those sort of things.

It can get pretty torture porn at times which isn't exactly my favorite but it doesn't cross that very thin line for myself personally. It has it's moments of comedy that don't quite mesh well and sometimes has it's fanservice that some might not enjoy. This first season is truly a wonder but that isn't to say it doesn't have it's cons. Without spoiling anything this anime is wonderful and if you haven't seen it I suggest you do. Their chemistry and their acting together even in just voice mixed with animation was something I found myself loving to watch. Though my favorite would have to be Ken himself and Investigator Amon. Everyone did an A+ job on their voices and portraying their characters. The actors put their all into it and while you may notice voices from other animes you enjoy it doesn't take away from the anime what so ever. I watched the dubbed, yes I know some might hate that but I enjoyed it very much. Everything about the animation was beautiful. The fight scenes were some of the best I have ever seen and the emotions portrayed on the faces of the characters, even their body language was clear which is something I love. While it showcased what they were with the unity it showed just how different each one was with their powers. The powers of the ghouls all looked similar yet uniquely different at the same time.

Everyone had their own unique look, their own style and it showed. However, you'll find those who fit your ideas just like anyone else and it really makes the anime real even if it is extremely fantasy sci fi based. Even the humans in the anime pull on your heartstrings and make you hesitate on which side you want to be on. The other characters are all so diverse and wonderful that you can't help but fall in love with them and you're heart being crushed when something bad happens. He of course teeters on the edge after a traumatic experience and once he overcomes it you see just how much it shapes him into what he has become, be it good or bad. You watch him grow into a strong man who eventually faces off with so many people that only makes him stronger.

Anyone placed in his shoes would be the same. He was always crying but as I watched more I realized just how normal and real he was. Ken himself at first seemed dull and I thought maybe I wouldn't like him all too much. She is unncessarily cruel to the main character and lashes out for seemingly no reason at all. As you understand her more you realize why she is that way but there are times where it is just over the top and not needed at all. While at the same time I did enjoy the things she did for the girls in her life. Women can be powerful without being mean. The character Touka is one I wasn't really keen on since it seemed like her 'powerful' personal was wrapped around the idea that she had to be mean to most people. While it lacks with some it excels with others. You aren't left with too many questions and you find yourself liking more than just a few of the characters. Now he faces the new life he must embark on and it goes down a very dark and twisted story that leaves you satisfied yet wanting more, a strange thing to feel. The anime focuses on Ken Kaneki who is an average college school student who ends up going on a date with a ghoul that changes his life forever. However, if you feat upon the flesh of a ghoul you receive serious repercussions. Vampires as in they keep their sanity about them and thirst for the blood of humans and ghouls alike. They are zombie like creatures only in the fact that they feed off of the flesh of humans and any other food they eat makes them sick. It is a new spin on a mix of zombies, and vampires themselves in what is called ghouls. Tokyo Ghoul season one is a uniquely strange rollercoaster that makes you hang on to your seat.
