This is the volume where everything changes. Seems fitting as it's exactly halfway to the series conclusion. Way way, more graphic than the anime. How can words and still pictures be more graphic than animation, I still ask myself.

If you saw Kaneki as a weak coward guy, well, let's say this volume will surprise you. A lot. For me, I just hope he didn't change too much. Actually, I was one of the people who hated Kaneki for how weak he was, running from everything and not accepting his condition but surprisingly he grew on me. Maybe because we are more like Kaneki in real life than we'd like to accept. We don't do heroic unless we are forced to and even then...

Read this volume! And the others before of course. The shocking bits of the story here have their foundations in the other slower volumes.

This one GOT ME. The twists and turns, even the ones you think you see coming, are so much more brutal and wild than you think! Possibly one of my favorite volumes in the series so far. Masterfully done.
