Tokyo Ghoul, Tome 1

The city feels almost like a character itself, with its shadows and secrets. I'm curious whether the author drew from real Tokyo or built this world from imagination.

The story makes you question what makes someone truly 'monstrous.' I wonder if the author intended for readers to see the ghouls as victims as well.

His evolution is so visceral — I wonder what led to the choices around his physical and emotional change, and how that reflects the story's themes.
