Tokyo Ghoul :re Call to E[X]ist trailer review / impressions.

I was not expecting this to happen anytime soon but what moment's better than after the ending of the Manga? Apparently yesterday a Tokyo Ghoul :re game was announced by Bandai Namco, and will be available "soon" for PC and PS4, XBOX One wasn't mentioned. You can watch the trailer here:



IMPRESSIONS
My impressions are not the most positive. From what I've seen, the game appears to be an hack-n-slash type of game, much like Devil May Cry. The game doesn't look particularly great, even though it's hard to tell since the screen is covered in special effects, which hide most of the action and graphics. The trailer essentially shows Kaneki breaking in Cochlea in his Aogiri suit, though we also get a glance at Haise Sasaki and Yamori, suggesting that the game will probably have a storyline where sadly Root A is canon. One thing I've noticed is that Kaneki seems to be fighting Yamori in his Kakuja form in Cochlea, which is quite odd since we see images of the room where Yamori tortured Kaneki, but I'll skip over that for now. I doubt the game will be available within weeks or so, likely a few moths, until then unless we get a new trailer I won't be able to tell much more about it.

Black Reaper - Tokyo Ghoul :re Episode 12 Review

WATCH EPISODE 12 What a run and beautiful series we had. Sadly, the time has come, the time where I review its last episode. Nothing to fear, though, the premiere for the Second Season of Tokyo Ghoul :re is rumored to happen in October of this Very Year. Anyways, let's get back to this episode. I have some complaints, like many others, I believe certain scenes didn't have an equal impact than they had in the Manga. Can I let that slide? Partially. The scenes were still well drawn, well Animates, the text was similar if not the exact same, so what's wrong with them? Hard to explain. In the Manga they simply looked cooler I'm guessing. The fight between Kaneki and Eto was wonderful. I expected it to be carried by Asphyxia in all honesty, but sadly, it wasn't the case and that's probably for the better. It was well Animates, no important scenes were skipped. Shirazu's death was well made, his Kagune looked a bit weird I have to say, and Noro...

Tokyo Ghoul :re Episode 8 Review

WATCH EPISODE 8 Yet another solid episode, what can I say. While the sound-track is becoming a little repetitive, it's still very good. The introduction of new characters was also well done, and it was animated particularly well. Kanae's flashback was also very well done, even thought Trukiyama looked a little bit dull in it, I guess his suit wasn't of the best colors back then. I don't know why I felt I had to mention such thing, but moving on, there's one thing this Anime is focusing on that I might actually like, that being the relationship between Ayato and Hinami. Also worth mentioning how different Ayato looks in the Flashback, he looks nothing alike his TG Season 1 counterpart. I am agreeing a lot with the panels the Anime decided to adapt and cut. So far it has been focusing on what's important, the relationship between Shirazu and Nutcracker (as a Quinque) is a good example for this. And Mutsuki's gender is constantly being hinted to be Fe...

Tokyo Ghoul :re Chapter 171 Review

READ CHAPTER This chapter was very focused towards the past of certain characters. I was expecting something more from it, things such as Renji releasing a Kakuja or something but I guess what we've got is more than enough. The conversation between Uta and Yomo was very deep, I liked it, even thought I still can't fully understand Uta or how Yomo managed to bring him to his knees like that, unless Uta himself was just playing a Role like he's always been doing. Meanwhile the fight between Amon and Donato has been apparently brought to an end. Even thought I'm fairly sure that hit that Amon striked on Donato wasn't enough to take him down. In fact, I believe Donato's abilities could easily match the ones of someone like Eto for instance. He hasn't gone full out yet, and I wonder if he buries some kind of feelings towards Amon, perhaps similar to the feelings Amon has towards him. Donato could easily take down Amon in a blast, I'm pretty sure of that. I...
