i just started watching the entire series of tokyo ghoul and it looks like i choose the perfect time for it too lol. the first 12 episodes and the first episode of season 2 actually feel like a legit end of a season 1, its weird they didnt include that episode to season 1. either way i gotto say i freaking love the anime so far! i can really recommend it. its very freaky and strange but in a good way. the main character development sorta reminds me of the manwha Crepuscule but done better, and the animation quality is amazing too. the only problem i have with it so far is that the story progresses at a too fast pace which causes poor overall character development though and lacking in the story department, but hopefuly season 2 will fix this.

edit: ok season 2 was absolute trash. ditching this anime/manga
