The last decade saw anime becoming mainstream, with several popular anime reaching the heights of popularity. One of the anime present during the industry becoming mainstream wasTokyo Ghoul. Tokyo Ghoulbecomes a fan-favorite anime after airing season one. The anime was adapted from Sui Ishida’s magnum opus of the same name. But it could not maintain the good name for long.
There were several problems surrounding the anime, and it failed to live up to its hype. The plot changed after a couple of seasons, but the anime failed to depict the entire story. Ken Kaneki’s journey had the fans excited in the initial stage, but it soon turned out to be disappointing. Fans believe a reboot should happen after it should followFullmetal Alchemist’s path.
Tokyo GhoulReboot Should Avoid Making The Same Mistakes
Tokyo Ghoulmanga became pretty popular and sold millions of copies. Soon, it was adapted into an anime, and fans had great expectations. Unfortunately, after a great start, the popularity graph slowly began to stoop downwards. Lack of creativity, unable to capture the true essence of the manga, excluding crucial moments, etc., led to the anime’s downfall.

The manga readers found significant changes between the manga and the anime, and the animation was also not up to the mark. By the timeTokyo Ghoul Root Apremiered, the fans had lost hope. With almost a decade gone, the fans believe a reboot would be a great way to revive the series. But instead of walking down the same path, they should follow the example set byFullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood.
Fullmetal Alchemistaired between 2003 and 2004. Even though the manga had a unique plot, the anime was less satisfactory in comparison. Later, in 2009, a reboot happened with the name ofFullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood. The anime became a milestone in the industry. To date, it is considered to be one of the greatest adaptations ever.Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhoodhas a 9.1 rating on IMDb.

The reboot had everything in it. Every emotion behind Edward and Alphonse Elric’s journey, suffering several downfalls and facing obstacles but never giving up, was beautifully depicted in the anime.Tokyo GhoulReboot should try to maintain the same level of authenticity and showcase every minute detail. The last season felt too rushed and left behind little to remember.
Tokyo GhoulLeft A Bad After Taste
Tokyo Ghoulhad one of the greatest downfalls in anime history. One of the main reasons was failing to maintain consistency. A good anime should never be limited to a certain number of episodes instead, it should be given the freedom of any number of episodes to fully highlight all the minute details.

The story of Kaneki and Hide’s friendship was unexplored. Even though Hide was believed to be killed by Kaneki, in reality, he was alive but was hiding a devastating truth from his best friend. The love and tension between them were greatly missed. On the other hand,Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhoodhad no margin for error. Everything was top-tier.
Sui Ishida’s magnum opus left a bad aftertaste for the fans. But his manga was one of the very best. Unfortunately, the anime was compromised. It was heavily criticized by the fans, who were utterly disappointed withTokyo Ghoul: reand Tokyo Ghoul Root A. Hopefully, they would keep aside their creativity and follow Brotherhood’s path if the idea of a reboot is ever proposed.
