Another half assed "review" because I'm on my phone and I'm lazy af. 
 This was a solid start to a series I've meaning to get to for 87 years. I'm a sucker for exploring the grey area between good and bad, and as sadistic as it sounds - I'm really looking forward to watching Kaneki struggle with the inner conflict of being half ghoul and half human. He has this heartbreaking sense of vulnerability and instead of giving up and crumbling, you see him rise and fight. Well, hatch and I loved that. 
 I adored the art which isn't something I pay too much attention to in manga (I know it should be) I'm just used to the first few volumes being pretty meh but I've heard the art gets amazing from around chapters 30-40 so I'm looking forward to watching the art grow alongside Kaneki. 
 Overall rating: 3.5
