AnimationFan14 Posted April 1, 2017 Posted April 1, 2017 Episode Two "Incubation" Kanji: 孵化 Romaji: Fuka Toonami Airdate: Sunday night, 4/2/2017, at 1:00am Original Air Date: "July 11, 2014" Episode Direction by: "Matsuo Shin" Storyboard by: "Matsuo Shin" Animation Direction by: "Kakuto Gai, Abe Kousashi" Opening: "Unravel" the first solo single by Tōru "TK" Kitajima, from the band Ling Tosite Sigure Ending: "Saints" (聖者たち Seijatachi) performed by People In The Box Ken Kaneki is a young man who befriends the beautiful and enigmatic Rize Kamishiro, unaware that she is a ghoul. Rize reveals her intentions to eat Kaneki but by a stroke of luck Kaneki survives her attack but is mortally wounded. He is saved by an emergency operation, transferring Rize's organs into himself. This subsequently turns him into a half-ghoul half-human hybrid and Kaneki struggles to survive and cope by himself Ken Kaneki is half human, half Ghoul, and suffering from a deadly case of the munchies I think it's safe to say Ken's life has been pretty severely mixed up Dig in for another episode of Tokyo Ghoul Only on Toonami
PokeNirvash Posted April 1, 2017 Posted April 1, 2017 LAST TIME ON TOKYO GHOUL Rize: "Let me show you what this mouth do~." [bites him] Kaneki: "AUUGGGHHHH WHAT KIND OF FUCKING MOUTH DOES THAT!?" Rize: "Mmm, I didn't know you were a screamer... But you know what they say, the quiet ones are usually the freakiest~." IT WAS A CRAZY FIRST DATE ALL RIGHT.
Gyaos Posted April 2, 2017 Posted April 2, 2017 Had to rewatch the first episode because I was too hammered to remember what the episode was about. I don't think this is going to be a fun anime to watch, if I must be honest.
OSC Posted April 2, 2017 Posted April 2, 2017 Never mentioned it last week, but that "Flesh flesh flesh flesh" part reminded me of Billy Idol's Flesh For Fantasy for some reason.
DangerMouse Posted April 2, 2017 Posted April 2, 2017 Here we go!!! Loving this girl. Hopefully she stays this cool.
DangerMouse Posted April 2, 2017 Posted April 2, 2017 Yup, this OP just makes me think of Psycho-Pass.
Gyaos Posted April 2, 2017 Posted April 2, 2017 The voice actor for the MC fucking nails it with the screaming. That's one positive I've found.
Meilag32 Posted April 2, 2017 Posted April 2, 2017 Is this the full OP? If it is, I better memorize it as I doubt we'll be seeing it again on Toonami.
AnimationFan14 Posted April 2, 2017 Author Posted April 2, 2017 OPENING THEME!!!!! <3 time to UNRAVEL
Gyaos Posted April 2, 2017 Posted April 2, 2017 Starvation is hell for any creature, living or undead. Shit. When isn't it?
ben0119 Posted April 2, 2017 Posted April 2, 2017 Wow, people say the OP is the only good thing about this show? What was that? Some real girly-man-ass shit. That was painful.
Meilag32 Posted April 2, 2017 Posted April 2, 2017 Starvation is hell for any creature, living or undead. Shit. When isn't it? Your body eating itself in desperation is horrible.
mochi Posted April 2, 2017 Posted April 2, 2017 Wow, people say the OP is the only good thing about this show? What was that? Some real girly-man-ass shit. That was painful. the opening is pretty the lyrics are idiotic though one of the lines is "I'm so damadged I just stand there and I freeze"
CorbeauKarasu Posted April 2, 2017 Posted April 2, 2017 i'm not feeling the hype of this series. i can't feel sympathetic for something as base as a ghoul. also, why not just start buying raw beef and pork in bulk to eat? I'd imagine, that'd be similar enough to satisfy without creating cannibalism problems.
OSC Posted April 2, 2017 Posted April 2, 2017 Reminds me of that one poker night. Flush! flush! Flush! Flush! Flush!
Gyaos Posted April 2, 2017 Posted April 2, 2017 Assuming this guy lives in an apartment, I'm curious to know how he hasn't been cited for being loud.
OSC Posted April 2, 2017 Posted April 2, 2017 "What's with the eyepatch? Some new trend?" "Ever seen that Chunnbyou anime?"
mochi Posted April 2, 2017 Posted April 2, 2017 .....I have to resist the urge to Ship Hide with Kaneki....since I know Hide isn't Gay.....despite glomping and saying he can't live without Kaneki fuck Japan

I'd imagine, that'd be similar enough to satisfy without creating cannibalism problems. Well, he tried eating a burger last episode and...well, that didn't work out too well.
Meilag32 Posted April 2, 2017 Posted April 2, 2017 Are you telling me that in the modern age, no ghoul has invented some sort of faux-human meat?

CorbeauKarasu Posted April 2, 2017 Posted April 2, 2017 sounds like kaneki should have dated Hide. if he'd dated Hide instead of Rize, he would't be having these problems.
Gyaos Posted April 2, 2017 Posted April 2, 2017 The writer didn't even try to fucking hide the fact that this guy's a ghoul. Also, the fact that I don't remember ANY of these characters' names is a BAD sign. It means I'm not invested enough in the plot.
OwlChemist81 Posted April 2, 2017 Posted April 2, 2017 "What's with the eyepatch? Some new trend?" "Ever seen that Chunnbyou anime?" Figures that Tokyo Ghoul would have to replace One Piece and then taunt us with the main character wearing an eyepatch!
DangerMouse Posted April 2, 2017 Posted April 2, 2017 Oh okay, he couldn't really endure eating it eh.
Meilag32 Posted April 2, 2017 Posted April 2, 2017 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hufu Exactly. You think that the ghouls would have realized that they needed sciences on their side instead of dumb thugs.
OSC Posted April 2, 2017 Posted April 2, 2017 "You can eat your friend. I bet he tastes like chicken."
ben0119 Posted April 2, 2017 Posted April 2, 2017 Oh, so the ghoul organ transplant thing did happen. That's how he got like this. So is the girl really alive somehow inside him still talking to him or is he just going crazy? Interrupted them getting busy! My friend is here, said he had to quit this show five episodes in and echoed the sentiment of the first episode being promising but the show ultimately never going anywhere. We'll see how it goes. Personally, Hiatus aside, I'm a completionist when it comes to the block so I'll finish the show out regardless. Just as I thought, this brother, or whoever he is, knows the dudebro friend. And now Kaniki is meeting him in this context. Dude has eating regular food down! NICE TO MEET YOU KANIKI! Okay that was a bit cheesy and overdone. Whoa he kicked Hide. That was pretty awesome. I think I was right about the friend not lasting long. Hitting me with your bag? Or you an old lady?

Meilag32 Posted April 2, 2017 Posted April 2, 2017 WOAH!!! Did he just grow a tentacle from his crotch?!?!!
mochi Posted April 2, 2017 Posted April 2, 2017 Ghoul dude: "you smell just like a female ghoul" this line is basically used to excuse several horribly homoerotic lines in future episodes as being the result of the male ghouls being attracted to him because he has female Ghoul organs.....I.e. Ghouls can't be Gay except in Kaneki's case cause he smells like a woman
