Damn the this episode was composed beautifully. not gonna lie tho there were som issues I had from a manga reader persective but as a TG fan im loving Root A\r
Devil Apes/Black Dogs| KOMA AND IRIMI GO HARD!!\r
Yoshimura going in as Owl as well - THAT DIALOGUE (too real)\r
you see the burden of the CCG Investigators as the operation unfolds\r
Kaneki & Touka both cant stay away and head towards the action - Toukas intervention hints at one new big possibility but overall things have been following the manga progression and failing in certain aspects \r
Cant wait for Episode 10\r
Thoughts?\r

Episode 7 Comments:\r
Yoshimura aka Kuzans tragic past is refvealed - by extension the origin of the One Eyed Owl is exposed - the way this backstory was done was nice but they skipped some crucial details and werent explicit enough about how hard Ukina goes\r
While i still love the atmosphere of root A and the pacing there are numerous problems cropping up (most of which stem from KANEKIS COMPLETE LACK OF PRESENCE UP TO THIS POINT) - KANEKI DEVELOPMENT? - YOMO & UTA BACKSTROY (ARIMA)? (Hopefully these get addressed in the remaining episodes)\r
The scenes between Yoshimura and Shinohara were dope tho and seeing thecontinued development of almost everyone in Anteiku is well done\r

TSUKIYAMA DUDE!! THAT SCENE - THROWBACK TO SEASON 1 - dude seriously got off on the blood stained napkin)\r
Love the development and setup with this episode. Events are definitely converging with the manga\r
The scene between Touka and Keneki was well done - great development for HInami - Takatsuki hints and exposition - and Yoshimura and Antieku development\r
Shinohara tells Juuzo theyll be returning to Anteiku\r
Great setup and development this chapter and Im glad they did theyre best to remedy the lack of explanation about Kenekis Centepide form and Kakuja cannibalism info\r

Episode 6 Comments:\r
Amon x Akira FTW. the Takizawa comedy tho lolz\r
Dude so now everyone can finally be aware of the horrors of Juuzos past. Dude got fucked up!! - I remember when i first learned of this. nightmarish shit. CASTRATION TORTURE AND PSYCHOLOGICAL MIND BREAK. \r
Like the fact that they continue to subtly showcase Hide and Anteiku despite the necessity to focus more on CCG and Aogiri. However KANEKI!? - the disassociation with his character was cool at first to add weight to his descision to join Aogiri but now it has the potential to become a huge problem and hole in the series. The kakuja was somewhat explained but Kanekis transformation and journey has not been given any exposition. Also no internal Kaneki monologues.EVER - this is dangerous \r

Episode 5 Comments:\r
THAT ENDING THO DAMN\r
THE INSANITY OF CENTIPEDE!! - this first look into centipede was done right with that music.damn\r
That ending art - TATARA MASKLESS (loved getting hints at his past through the confrontation w/ Hoji) - JUUZO MY SON!! - FUCKING OWL!!!\r
This Aogiri raid of the prison was dope\r
Amon vs Kakuja Kaneki - showcasing their destined bond and the development of Amon (the stuggle between kanekis personas is real) - GLASSY SKY TRACK FTW\r
THAT JUUZO VS NASHIRO & KURONA DAMN (dude going in with the slicing) - more development for the Twins and Juuzos backstory to come tho. \r
Shinohara vs Centipede - the animation was so beast and that music damn\r
Ayato vs Shinohara - those fother and son feels with the Arata exposition
