As the dust settles from the altercation within the secret laboratory, we find a story aiming to recalibrate itself as it prepares itself towards its conclusion. For those who remain enthusiastic about Sui Ishida's zig-zagging priorities, then at this point, Tokyo Ghoul is surely on track for them towards a satisfying end. However, its trailing chapters leave little to be desired, with the aftermath of such rage, violence, and urgency swelling up its (ineffective) melodrama. 11 chapters in, and perhaps Tokyo Ghoul has gotten too large in its cast for its own good, with that satisfying focus of its humbler beginnings only visible here as a glimmer.
