The anime didn't do this story justice. Be prepared, it's very dark.

It’s been years since watching the anime and going back and reading the manga brings back many memories. The art style is stunning and I still really like the concept of this story.

If you're looking for any horror mangas, Tokyo Ghoul is definitely up there as a must read. 

I watch season 1 of the anime then started season 2 but stopped midway just to read the manga. It was most definitely worth it, the art in the manga is beautifully scary and captivating. Reminds me a bit of Junji Ito if you are a fan of his art. 

Considering that this is only Volume 1 of the manga, I feel so far the story is being fleshed out. You jump in with meeting the main character Ken Kaneki and from there, we learn fairly quickly how his life turns for the worse. 

Highly recommend for horror fans. Read the manga first then watch the anime!

Good introduction to the series. I liked the art style, and the main character was likeable enough to willingly follow throughout the series. I hope we get to see more of the friendship between Hide and Ken as the manga continues.
