    Seinen Tokyo Ghoul by Ishida Sui

    I'm noy saying that he wasn't an actual One-Eyed King but not the one from the myths. What I mean is that yes he became a symbol because of his actions but you must take into account humans's egocentric nature. By that, I 'm not talking about selfishness but rather the way humans perceive the...

    Seinen Tokyo Ghoul by Ishida Sui

    Yeah sure, I'm not ruling out that. I'm just saying, people give me more credit than he deserves. They try to make him look more empathetic than he truly was. To me, Ishida has a cruel sense of irony (well yeah he's him, no wonder) because despite making Arima a King, he was always acting like a...

    Seinen Tokyo Ghoul by Ishida Sui

    Yeah I have read Bleach, true. As for that phrase. Well to me it proves exactly what I stated: he doesn't make a choice for himself and just shows his disgust for the choices that are given to him. You may want something more heroic but this is actually a very humane quality. Many people despise...

    Seinen Tokyo Ghoul by Ishida Sui

    Honestly it's kind of hillarious that I'm replying to this as I have no idea what you're discussing about. However, the other day I was thinking of that exact page and one thing came to my mind: The butterfly effect. Till now, I thought that butterfly was a way to show Arima's softer side, but I...

    Chapter Tokyo Ghoul:re Chapter 109 Discussion/110 Predictions

    Well to be fair, though a bit far-fetched, I did think of Donato's comment as political satire in a way. In a way, Ishida parallelized clowns to humans and how the former are attracted to the famous ones as a way to ridicule plebs' stupidity. It could have been just a hint of clowns being in...

    Chapter Tokyo Ghoul:re Chapter 109 Discussion/110 Predictions

    In the last chapter, when Donato said that Clowns are attracted to famous people, I did think of Eto. Now, seeing a "clown" having his mouth stitched in a fashion exactly similar to what Eto did to Karren, I'm sure.

    Discussion Arima's actions and motivations

    If V is indeed as strong as you believe, then how come they went so unprepared against Eto and they were all brutally killed? You may say that she caught them off guard but they couldn't do anything at all, just mere humans. I will give you that we still don't know that much about V and that I...

    Discussion Arima's actions and motivations

    As a continuation of two separate discussions about Arima prompted by the recent revelations about the character, let's discuss how we interpret his actions and the motives behind them. I've started by moving here the posts from the most recent of the aforementioned discussions, so feel free to...

    Chapter Tokyo Ghoul:re Chapter 89 Discussion/90 Predictions

    Tatara's flashback was really hillarious. If you think about it, these latest chapters proved to us that Washuu didn't have extraordinary power seeing how easily Furuta's father died. Other than that, V also died pretty easily or at leas that's what I understood from Furuta's words. So, in the...

    Chapter Tokyo Ghoul:re Chapter 89 Discussion/90 Predictions

    Wow just wow, I'm really impressed! Seeing how all CCG wanted Takizawa dead really saddened me even though it was obvious that they couldn't just let him like that. Other than that, the scene with Tatara and Arima really fascinated me. It seems like Tatara really had a strong respect for him. I...

    Chapter Tokyo Ghoul:re Chapter 88 Discussion/89 Predictions

    Well do not underestimate one's own imagination. It can be quite scary even for oneself. It's one thing for those thoughts to stay as such and a complete when you try to materialize them, the feeling gets way stronger and more specific.

    Chapter Tokyo Ghoul:re Chapter 88 Discussion/89 Predictions

    What you say would be justified were had his writing been limited to the weekly release strictly. If he's afraif of judgement, he would just concentrate on the manga, he wouldn't try to get even more tired. I also am writer of short stories. The last one I wrote was rather dark and I got to say...

    Chapter Tokyo Ghoul:re Chapter 88 Discussion/89 Predictions

    Honestly, I wouldn't describe him as a serious professional because it downgrades the true nature of his personality/ problem: workaholism. He doesn't write to live, he lives to write. Honestly, based on the nature of his work and the recurring themes of extreme darkness, I would say that he's a...
