Tokyo Ghoul: re

I honestly gave this series a shot because of an image i found online of the main character, Kaneki Ken. The first 2 seasons were an absolute masterpiece if you ask me, i enjoyed every minute of it, even tho the endings felt a bit rushed, it was still pretty enjoyable and different than the rest... People seem not to enjoy the ROOT A though i liked it, maybe even more than the first season, although, here, things slowly start getting out of hand. Throughout the whole season 1 of RE i was completly lost and confused on whats going on, all these sudden introductions, plot twists, no background, even the names were hard to remember... there was so much going on but yet no explaination what so ever, pure mess. Without some background coming from the manga, i dont think i'd be able to fully understand the show without the fandom wiki. Though, the second half made up for it, it cleared most of the confusion,Lots of scenarios i was hoping for came true and, yes, Kaneki did it ;). I feel like the first half should get revamped to say the least. The changes in the artwork dont bother me, theyre barely even noticable. Overall 8.5/10, the season "3 and 4" 7/10.

The first seasons / original "Tokyo Ghoul" is exceptional, but the two additions to the series fall short, each one feeling more hollow then the one before it, between issues with the characters and holes in the plot it does not do the first season justice.

In the first two seasons all the characters are developed and begin to be familiar to the watcher and are the main part of the story, not in this they aren't. That development is thrown in the bin as Ken loses his memory. Not only that but then they introduce a couple hundred thousand new characters for no reason and begin to follow their meaningless story's which nobody cares about and that has no influence on anything that happens. It stupid how much worse they managed to make this. The action scenes were still good and the final few episodes did give a small bit of redemption mainly because they finally brought back the characters we actually care about. Overall this cannot be compared to the original series, which I am now calling it, it simply isn't as good. 5/10.

Too many characters...

To many plot points...

Story happens without any explanation. Is there a story anymore? Just characters added into the mix without resolving the previous character's story. Mindless death and slaughter. Ideas without any sense turned into philosophy.

No, this is not what Tokyo Ghoul is. And I've watched it until the end. In the final 2 episodes, there are some redeeming qualities, but why season 3 exists if it doesn't make any sense?

There isn't any real storyline. There are way too many characters to follow any one of them not to mind their intersecting stories.

That's not to mention the groups and their motivation.

I liked the first season of Tokyo ghoul, the second completed the story but it was a bit of a tangled up storyline. This... this just seems like they took a massive amount of source material, threw it in a mincer and didn't really care about the end product.
