This marks the end of Tokyo Ghoul proper. I will decline reading wiki-pages that would clarify everything going on, but the gist is that after this volume is Tokyo Ghoul: re. Which is sure to confuse anime viewers when the third series by that name starts this month but is not the continuation of root A from what I understand. Pretty much, if you’re a Tokyo Ghoul fan, then who cares? Read it all, watch it all, just fucking enjoy it.

We’re getting to the really good stuff now. With my manga reviews I do try and avoid mentioning the anime adaptations, but this week I haven’t been very successful in doing that. There is a reason to do so here because there has always been a fuss about Tokyo Ghoul Root A, deviating from the manga, but with the last volume and this volume of Tokyo Ghoul, I’ve seen how it’s come back around to the same point. It’s yet to be seen if this entire arc will play the same as the anime, but there are similarities.

Well, well, well, this is a very interesting volume of Tokyo Ghoul. After the last volume, it seemed as if the manga and the anime had finally gone their separate ways, but here comes volume twelve smashing those expectations and continuing the comparison. What remains incredible about this brand is that even though the anime differs in a lot of ways from the manga, there has yet to be a point in which I firmly feel that one did something better than the other. The anime is good for its own reasons and so it the manga. The manga, whether you believe it or not, is really unlike any other mainstream manga on the market which explains at least some of its popularity.

After the last volume, there’s not a lot that this one can do to top itself. It’s still a great volume if you’ve been reading the series from the beginning, but it’s not as mind-blowing to the plot as the tenth volume of Tokyo Ghoul.

Well, this is a paramount volume if you’re reading Tokyo Ghoul. Where to begin? Listen, there’s a lot I could tell you about this volume. A lot happens. There’s more reveals in this one volume than there have been in the last four volumes combined. Hell, probably more if I could remember specifics of the other volumes.
