i still don't understand how the gently caress this kid is a "half-breed." He can't eat human food like a human; how is he any goddamned different from a normal ghoul?

I'm guessing that ghouls are usually born that way, not made.

So they eat suicides, how quaint. This show is just too needlessly edgy for me to bother - and I'm a dork that likes Berserk.

I just can't believe that I never realized the first time I watched this that this is just a lovely Vampire: The Masquerade game. Then you got the Box Carriers using the Hunter book for their characters.

And Kaneki's like the half-breed daywalker motherfucker.

Like if they can have super science methods to fight Ghouls, why not just clone loving human flesh? It doesn't even need to be a full thing, just a few organs and some tissue. A genetics company just uses them to dispose of failures and life goes on.

Except- here's the thing! Vampire half-breeds get special powers, because they can still go around in daylight while having vampire powers, or they can still derive sustenance from normal food and not just blood, or they lack the VS Holy Weapons weakness

I don't get what the gently caress makes this whiny poo poo "special"! He's just a ghoul! No special abilities or properties!

There literally is no accounting for good taste. :v:

Seriously, it's because the author wanted to draw the characters in waiter/waitress uniforms. You know it. I know it.

I'm catching up on last week's Gundam rather than watching this episode of Tokyo Ghoul. Persona 5 is also in my powered off PS4.

I'm figuring there's no real difference between eating other ghouls and humans, hell, becoming a monster eating monster would probably be preferable.
