not particularly interested in full CG shows but maybe I'll read it one day

If you say so

Will read the manga soon tho

Just saw the trailer
And the manga is so good, they had to go and fuck up the adaptation

>>
>>136001178
Its generally agreed that the manga is shit except for the hat guy that people tend to like. There's no bait here.
>>
>>136001091
Do NOT fall for the horseshit people make up about the author changing. It did not happen. Tsuina Miura helped write the series' set-up and basic beginning stuff: he had zero role in the actual writing of the plot, so
>hurr the plot got bad when the author changed
is complete horseshit.
>>
>>136001178
I'm right you know.

It's like Parasyte for edgy teenagers, before Tokyo Ghoul was a thing.
>>
>>136001112
>manga is so good
I wouldn't go that far.
It's okay to read if you've got nothing else at hand, but it's not amazing or anything. Plus the art got really wonky at some point, especially the faces, but luckily that seems to be over now.

No, he really doesn't, his antics have been relatively boring and uninspired since he crashed that plane.

Either way the plot and cast did a shitty 180 out of nowhere and went from promising to garbage.

>>136001246
Irrelevant, it still turned to shit.
It was at least kind of interesting before MC got rescued by hats guy, his behavior could've been entertaining, but during the escape and afterwards it just plummeted and never really recovered.

Ajin got shit after the original author left though.

Those are fair viewpoints, but that wasn't the point of my post. My post was to help prevent people from spreading lies or believing in a lie because it's commonly cited. You can think what you want of the manga, just don't claim that it's the fault of some individual person's departure from a project that the plot isn't something you can appreciate.
>>
It´s a good series, but people find the going of the writer as a good excuse to say that it turnet shit, at least they could try be more original
>>
>>136002545
It's not an excuse, it's just a perceived reason.
The change in the writing is why people say the writing turned to shit.

Not him of course, but such people are generally referring to the pathetic shounen-y way it started, with Kei being saved by friendship and "good people would CARE about Ajin!" and DO YOU HEAR THE PEOPLE SING and all that crap that it looked like it would turn into; instead of the more *original* plot course that it's taken.

So other manga that is written by guy who left is good?

At least they stopped whining about Kei after he got whole chapter

>>136003015
Literally no one said this and my post clearly contradicts your implication.
Please acquire basic mental faculties before trying to discuss subjective qualities on an anime image board.

>oh look I'm a psycho

How original

Anything with a slight edge factor (as in gore and people dying with an anti-villian/anti-hero) is original to redditors.

it looks okay, slightly better than sidonia CG wise.

But it's probably going to be on netflix so i don't mind waiting.
>>
>>136002996
>good people would CARE about Ajin
But that's literally what would be the case in a realistic setting.
It's basic human social skills to feel empathy towards creatures that look and act human.
>>136003730
No, anon, I asked for you to explain it. I can google a definition too, but I want to know what you think a strawman is.
If you quote something you found online then I'll consider that as you admitting that you don't know what a strawman is and you concede the argument.

isn't AJin just badTokyo Ghoul?

>>136003737

Ajin fans everyone

>>136003806

Tokyo Ghoul is bad Tokyo Ghoul

Tokyo Ghoul is awful too, but Ajin is even worse

>>136003782
>basic human social skills

>first one discovered was an African mercenary

>>136003806
It basically goes like this for Ajin:
>nothing similar to Kagunes
>no superhuman strength except immortality
>no kawaii hawt baes

>less emo
>MC doesn't need dozens of emo chapters to accept his new identity
>less whininng, more killing
>little to no "I wanna save all muh friends waah waaah"

It's kinda like Tokyo Ghoul but with more edginess and less typical emotional bullshit. Newer archs haven't eeb that convincing though.
Not sure what they do with the anime though, they might turn it as shitty as the TG anime.
>>
What a quality thread.
>>
>>136003158

They complained about writing out Kei but turned out he's in prison

9/11 best chapter

The manga feels directionless, its fun if you just want a gorefest
>>
>>136004025
Black Ghosts are kinda like Kagune in that they fulfill the role of giving them an edge over regular humans beyond their capabilities(regen/ghoultraits)

Good Tokyo Ghoul has to exist first.
>>
>>136004264
I did too, like when MC's ghost stopped those two guys from moving so that they'd get hit by the train, I thought it was a cool idea to give them unique-ish powers like that that go with their designs.
But turns out that was just a fluke and hasn't happened since then up to when I dropped the manga.
>>
>>136004158

It's ridiculous and I love it.

Chicken fingers.
>>
>>136004337
Nah, it's enough for Mediocre or Average Tokyo Ghoul to exist, which does.
>>
>>136004343

They do have some unique powers though, one guy has one with wings.
>>
>>136004418
That's not a unique power, that's just an inherent physical ability because of the form.
Hat guy's having a big mouth isn't a unique ability, and the other guy's one having claws isn't a unique ability either.
>>
>>136000960
The art is the only redeemable quality about this manga and now they are taking that away with the shitty CGI.
>>
>>136004052
Kai is in prison. Kei is the protagonist, dummy.

>>136004158
>clever idea

I would think people should like it when a character thinks up clever uses of their powers.

no

You mean like the commercial pilot who was seriously offended/angry that the 9/11 chapter didn't follow completely proper aerodynamic physical logic and then argued about it for hours in a thread? As in, autists?
>>
>>136005544
I dropped it after about 10 chapters. It just didn't hold my attention at all. Eventually when the chapters updated, I just couldn't bring myself to care and keep reading.

I'm not even going to try the animu.

I need links to that.

>>136007056
It was the day the chapter was released by blackinque. I made a thread about how I was laughing uncontrollably, and this guy came in bitching about planes. It was a long ways back, I don't know if desustorage is caught up in re-uploading the archive. Is it?
>>
>>136001251
Only that Tokyo Ghoul far outdoes Parasyte. I like Parasyte; it was good for its time, but it has aged poorly.

Most characters are background decoration. Hell, even "Kimi Izumi Shinichi-kun, dayo ne?" is nothing more than a refurbished sanity bar, there to kick the viewer in the face and tell them the obvious, which is that Shinichi changes over the course of the story.

I get that purpose, but she's hardly more than that.

Again, not contesting that Parasyte is great, especially for its time, but its character development leaves a whole lot to be desired, among other things.
>>
>>136001246
>>136002308
What's your source on this then? Because according to you the author legitimately thought retconning every characters personality was a good Idea
