Do you think there will be a possible second season? I haven't seen the last episode so I couldn't judge yet.

I think it's pulling a NGNL. Doesn't really finish anything and doesn't have a S2 or any continuation announcement.

Nah Tokyo Ghoul is worse, at least NGNL concluded something and just open new possibilities, but Tokyo Ghoul last episode did not even conclude the arc they are on.

Really? They don't finish this arc?

.... I dunno if we're gonna get a S2 outta this man.

Welcome to the world of bad adaptations. That's why I enjoy most original anime. We don't have stories that seem rushed and items cut out of the original piece. Anime like Aldnoah.Zero, Zankyou no Terror, Nagi-Asu and AnoHana have done really well and all having very high qualitative stories. Not saying all original anime is good *cough*Glasslip*cough*, but many of them don't have the as rushed feeling as adaptations.

To be honest, although Tokyo Ghoul may have ended on a non related thing it ended with a bang by introducing the true ghoul everyones been waiting for and thats what made everyone love the ending (besides you guys). They attempted to leave us with a cliff hanger than anything, if they arent getting a season 2 its most likely a promotion for the manga that has finished to be read. Believe it or not alot of anime do that especially deadmans wonderland and people cant wait for AoT season 2 so they read the manga anyway. The purpose in my opinion and alot others for anime is to promote or support the main source which is the manga. Tokyo ghoul is so good it pushed from #7 to #1 on my fav anime's, and I mean its 4-256, so really they could get more funds etc if they continued but again it could be promotional. In short the ending was weird but I got to saw what I.. no thousands of others wanted to see.

Just to also point out the fact that the manga for Tokyo Ghoul has ended as well

SEASON 2 RUMOURED FOR JANUARY 2015

GlazeyB · 09-19-2014

Chaika S2 is going to be extremely short, 10 episodes.

Log Horizon S2 has 25.

Season 2 of Tokyo ghoul confirmed.

How are you guys enjoying GGO? I really like the persistent every week episodes and the website that dubs them nearly immediately.

I only wish that the action would be more intense and it wouldn't keep focusing on Sinon and her personal issues. It gets repetitive and boring, I would rather be watching Kirito whoop some ass. I think the whole deflecting bullets with the sword is very cool to watch. I definitely love the animation on the SAO series that is for sure

I think the Sinon backstory actually makes sense, seeing how

Spoiler

She is a big character in GGO SAO and I enjoy her character and the bond she and kirito are beginning to create. In the end shes just another girl falling for the poor stud.

Keeluah · 09-20-2014

Glasslip, I don't even. My mind is about to explode with all these messed up plot lines where I cannot comprehend anything. Luckily there are some people out there who theorize that what Touka and Kakeru sees are fragment of timelines, alternate universes created to show Touka's inner thoughts which she has no control and it's her deepest desires. That or she's pretty much on drugs.

Sinon is a weaker form of what Asuna should of been.

The weakness isn't actually a bad thing, but I really thought she was going to be a badass character and its turning out she is very unreliable

She is a big character, but her drama is causing the anime to be too much subtle dialogue. In SAO, there was plenty of monster fights and players that got in the way through a constant but enjoyable pace, but in GGO we have now

Spoiler

What I am really hoping for is this episode that is coming out in 50 minutes to have some intense fights and introduce a new element of GGO. From the last cliffhanger we can expect that to happen, but a lot of the cliffhangers in ggo have been shallow and easily resolved the first 5 minutes of the next episode.

On a final, kinda random, note- I wish GGO had a prettier theme to it. It is so industrial and it makes me miss the beautiful backdrops from SAO and ALO

GGO is supposidly made by America ;) Pollution industries.

I find complex well organized plot way better than none-stop action where the MC just randomly gets OP. Sinon is a better character than Asuna, even though she's losing her originality that makes her good and just becoming another piece to Kirito's harem.

Next episode, the last episode, episode 12, they didn't show any development on what's happening outside, but only showed Kaneki being torture by Jason and Rize shows up in his mind, then later, Kaneki's hair turned white and started beating the living sht out of Jason then the episode ends. We all should've known that 12 episodes was not enough materials for an anime like Tokyo Ghoul. So rushed. Skipped too much Last edited by Wolfie; 09-19-2014 at 02:22 AM. Reason: Edit*
