This should have been my cup of tea. The ghouls are non-human creatures that eat human flesh. This reminds of vampires and I love Buddy and The Vampire Diaries. So I‘m not sure what happens, but I won‘t rush to read the next volumes.

Tokyo Ghoul was not at all my jam, but that's a me problem. It did fill the Manga Horror prompt for the #NoShameReadathon23 , which was the point!

I've wanted to check this out for so long. I've watched a few episodes of the anime and from what I can tell.. pretty similar. Lots of blood and moral dilemmas for poor Ken. The next volume I put on hold and gotta waaait 😭

BehindthePages I loved the first two seasons of this, but the third threw me for a loop and I haven't been back. 3y
night_shift @BehindthePages huh.. well we'll see! I'm really bad with completing series, so I may not even get to that problem lol 3y

Hey Litsy! My son is in 7th grade and loves Tokyo Ghoul and Demon Slayer. However, he‘s feeling like reading a novel because he burns through the mangas so fast. He needs a book for free reading time at school. Any suggestions?

Karisa Hey @Littlewolf1 I think you‘d mentioned you love Tokyo Ghoul too. Any ideas for him? 😅 3y
wanderinglynn Based on the synopsis for both series, I‘d recommend urban fantasy/paranormal books, of which there are many. Maybe Jim Butcher‘s Dresden Files. 3y
TheBookHippie I don‘t know however I do know this was in most of the kids please get this in classroom (7/8 grade) Loki: Where Mischief Lies (Marvel Universe YA, 1) and (edited) 3y

TheBookHippie The kiddos that read that genre I mean. 🙃 3y
Karisa @wanderinglynn @TheBookHippie He‘s definitely intrigued by Taro and the Dresden Files. Ordering both along with a collection of Japanese folktales because i can always use good books in my classroom when he‘s done with them! Thank you both so much 🥰 3y
Littlewolf1 I would go with Anna Dressed in Blood, Rot and Ruin, Asylum, The Tenth Girl or even This Savage Song was not bad. Some of these are pretty gruesome, but they are all YA horror… do you wants some older recommendations? (edited) 3y
Karisa @Littlewolf1 Thank you! Those sound great! I knew you would have some good ideas for us! 💗 3y
Littlewolf1 @Karisa hope you find something he loves 3y

57 of 2021. Day 2 and book 2 for #awesomeapril . Ken Kaneki is a student who barely survives a deadly encounter where his date reveals herself as a ghoul and tries to eat him. He is taken to the hospital in critical condition. After recovering, Kaneki discovers that he underwent a surgery that transformed him into a half-ghoul. I really enjoyed this so I will continue this manga. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Elizabeth2 My daughter and my niece (15 & 16) watched this show. They loved it. They would snuggle on the couch together during football games this past year (my brother‘s family was part of our safe circle) and giggle and squeal as they watched. They were adorable, and I loved that they shared their love of anime and manga. ❤️ 3y
DarkMina @Elizabeth2 That is awesome. My niece loves anime. Tokyo Ghoul is one of her favorites. A couple years ago they had a movie out so of course I took her to see it. She recommended I read the manga. 3y

Really enjoyed reading the first book in the Tokyo Ghoul series!

The artwork is cool, the story is intriguing and I‘m wondering where it will go next!

My new introduction to Tokyo Ghoul, sure was cool! With this digital read, I'll plan eventually for picking up the 1 again, & book 2 also, at bookstores in the future; seeing if these keep me interested for more. 💀☕️

This was my first time reading Manga, it was recommended to me by a friend. Its not something I would ever of thought I would have enjoyed as I don't usually like animation or comics etc. So I was really surprised at just how much I enjoyed reading this for both the story itself and the artwork. I loved it and am looking forward to reading the other books in this series and also trying some more Manga.

TheLibrarian I haven‘t read the manga yet but love the anime show! 4y
phantomx @Nicki_K Tokyo Ghoul is amazing, and a great starter as a manga series. The manga artist adds in beautiful intricate detail to the clothing in the manga and certain accessories. 4y

I Just Love the Anime!!! No Surprise Loving the Manga As Well😀
Tokyo Ghoul Attracts Me Because It's Not like any other Horror - action Animes/Manga.
It's Emotionally Resonant and has a serious psychological depth to it. Kaneki 's struggle to adapt and fight through all the obstacles as the only member having equal access to both the Human & Ghoul World is just breathtaking.
And Then There is 'Unravel', the OP of the Anime. Just Damn Good✌

Confession:

I enjoyed the Kindle sample of Tokyo Ghoul so much that I purchased the entire series (for Kindle) 😆 This will definitely keep me occupied during the downtime on my Japan trip 👍 🇯🇵 📚 ❤️

“We‘re gonna talk about our favorite books. It‘s my first ever outing with a girl. On top of that, it‘s the bookstore date of my dreams!! I‘m so happy I can die right now!”

Manga on Kindle - Ooo, pretty good 👍 This is dangerous. I cannot like it too much though because I still love the feel (and collection) of physical books 📚 ❤️😉

I loved it! Having watched the anime, I knew the storyline, but I love the supernatural aspect as well as the emotion in this story. The art is great, although sometimes a little unclear, but it‘s still eerie and adds to the overall mood of the series. Very easy to read and the flow is perfect. Starting Volume 2 immediately!!

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

#bookmail I was sad once I finished watching Tokyo Ghoul I had to buy the Manga. Plus, don‘t get me started on Penny Dreadful... #addict

[DELETED] 3803335244 I love Penny Dreadful! I am so disappointed they ended it with only 3 seasons! I felt like it could have gone on so much longer. And the ending was sad... 6y

TheLibrarian @ForeverNerdy I agree, they easily could have made the show longer. The ending crushed me. 6y

TheLibrarian @GrilledCheeseSamurai Enjoy!! I loved it so much I bought it in case it ever comes off Netflix. Also, I see a rewatch in the near future. 6y
[DELETED] 3803335244 It crushed me too because for such a strong character she just gave up & surrendered. Such great actors in the series! I want to get the graphic novels too but I‘m afraid my kids will get ahold of them. Definitely have to wait. 6y

You know how sometimes you go on a date with a cute young woman and she takes a bite out of your shoulder and when you try to run she skewers you with her "claws" and then after some steel beams fall on her you're rescued but her kidneys are transplanted into you and you learn you're now some kind of human-ghoul hybrid? No? Me neither. But wow is it fun to read about it. There's action, wacky humor, violence, a clueless eighteen year old etc.

I haven't read any manga since around 2014, I think. I was in the YA section of the library branch near my work yesterday and stumbled across the graphic novels section and then shelves and shelves of manga. I cannot tell you how excited I was. #manga #booknerd

My sister has this lying on her shelf. I've never read a manga before so thinking about it out. Anyone recommends it?

Weaponxgirl I've not read this one, but I think it's quite gory if it's the one I'm thinking of. Depends on your tastes, I heard its good if I think :/ I love manga but it's finding the stuff that takes your fancy that can be hard 7y

I'm not really into manga, but once I picked this up, I couldn't put it down. I immediately read one after another, and am impatiently awaiting vol. 7.
