Very mediocre anime.
There being so much hype around this anime, I decided to give it a shot. I've watched a lot of anime so I consider myself ft enough to judge whether an anime is worth watching or not. Tokyo Ghoul has an interesting premise but as I started watching it I started to notice a lot of senseless things and poor detailing that render this show unwatchable. Well not fully, as it starts out good, gets pretty messy in been and ends poorly. I can't understand why did they rush it so much. The ending is so poor that you won't feel a thing. No connection with the characters or the story whatsoever. The writers did not care about to end it, it feels like as a result you don't really care about what is happening. Only a couple of episodes in the start, maybe up to episode 4 or 5 are worth watching. The middle episodes are okay too but kinda illogical. The end is horrible.
This show has a nice dark feel to it and I loved watching it at night, in the dark before sleeping. The animation is not bad, but nothing ground breaking. The Tokyo scenery has been animated well. The voice acting is fine, but Kaneki's character is kinda annoying. Especially when he's crying.

Not all story has to be about learning something
Some stories are just too much fun to see. Tokyo ghoul has a thriller type awesome story. Art style is really great too. Don't look at those who gave it a bad review. Season 1 was great.
5/10 first season was the masterpiece. After that it was an abomination.
First season has the one of the best writing i have ever seen. After that they diverged from tha manga and.. lets just say Tokyo ghoul has only one season
Started out as perfect
I really enjoyed the first season of this series, but after that it went kinda downhill - I also watched second season and I didn't think it really lived up to the hype of the first season. The ending of second season got to me, and I actually thought it was quite okay anyways - but as soon as :re came out I was out the door. "What the heck is wrong with this" I thought to myself multiple before finally dropping it around the third episode of the latest season.
Very uneven
Season 1 was great, I'd give it an 8. Season 2 was still okay, but not nearly as captivating as the first, still a solid 6 or 7. Season 3 was completely unwatchable, I had no idea anymore who was who, who was fighting against whom, and what it was all about, so I gave up thoroughly frustrated after three or four parts. It was a confusing, pointless mess. Life's too short to waste your time on disappointing experiences like this.
Since the three seasons hardly have anything to do with each other, my recommendation is that you watch season 1, which is worth it, and pretend that the rest doesn't exist. You'll be doing yourself a favor. Actually there are precious few long anime series for which this doesn't hold true.
