Some trivia about Nanaba's breakdown before she's eaten by the Titans: that scene wasn't in the manga.

Oh, so it's an Adaptation Expansion.

As emotional as this arc is, I still think it was better in the manga.

Amon is kinda cool, but I hate his bug-eyed partner, not just because of what he does, but how cartoonishly evil he is compared to how grounded the series usually is.

What do you guys think about Amon?

Yeah as of where the manga is now there's a grand total of two, maybe three characters in Ao T who get to die with any semblance of dignity.

[up]I like the scene where he and Tarrlok are on a boat.

Meh, it's hard to feel for the ghouls considering that they.....ya know.... eat people in all. The hunter guy's still a dick though.

[up] He's not as cool as that Amon but this Amon is still pretty cool.

At least the good Ghouls only eat suicide corpses.

Though Touka is now a fucking murderer if she wasn't already one before.

Mado/Bug-Eye man may be completely bug fuck but he is a necessary evil as he is very competent in hunting down a super-powered cannibal species even if the innocent ones get killed all the same.

Also these scenes of Touka & Kaneki are still funny cause of the manga's recent chapter. tongue

You know, that's a common thing with people, and I honestly don't get it, since they actually have to in order to survive. And I don't buy into Humans Are Special, enough to think that people should just resign themselves to death over a quirk of biology they had no choice over.

How ghouls go about getting their food is another story, but I always found thinking about how this situation developed interesting.

This show is fairly decent at blurring the line of who's in the right.

On the one side, people are being murdered, and if they don't kill in return, they'll all die.

On the other side, people are being murdered, and if they don't kill in return, they'll all die.

And good luck convincing one species to choose extinction for the sake of the other one.

And then you throw revenge into the mix.

I mean again some Ghouls are effectively harmless as they only eat already dead corpses.

There are ways around it & the Doves mostly fight the ones that need to be killed anyway.

I mean, like Kaneki said, the Doves are necessary because a lot of ghouls frankly run rampant and go way beyond what they need to survive. But the Doves don't just go after them; they explicitly kill any ghoul, no matter what their actions. It's basically genocide.

We really haven't seen enough to say that for sure. This situation is more complicated than many would like to admit. You shouldn't assume that most ghouls are sadistic assholes, or that they're just born that way in a vacuum devoid of how they're viewed in society and what will happen to them if they're discovered.

But like I said, Humans Are Special isn't something I can really get behind entirely, at least not in a case like this.

I never said humans are special. It's just fucked having some creature lurking around in broad daylight that looks human but is preying on humans like no big deal. I mean we're all humans here, right? unless one of you guys is an alien or somethingtongue eh?

"Rising to Heaven".

Bwahaha, there is no way in fucking Hell Uvogin is going to Heaven. Sorry Chrollo but you & your flunkies are all fucking damned for eternity. [lol]

Though its nice that you care enough to actually shed a tear even if your all horrendous people. smile

[up][up] I respect the humans in this case. It takes a lot of gumption to go up against super-powered cannibals & using their corpses to make special weapons.

I mean we're all humans here, right?

Can only speak for myself here, Alpha, but we probably should check to see if there's any Ghouls or Titan Shifters among us.

Looks like it's time for another weird music video. And the Squick factor is quite high. .___.
