Spoiler:

Ahahahaha.

Heck, I didn't really need to get excited by this just before going to bed.

[Nymbryxion]

Seems rather tame in the anime... Kaneki didnt break all the kids bones...

Spoiler for to next episodes:

Episode 2
* First, the summary confirms Akira's introduction.
* Kaneki has become Tatara's subordinate. Also, he's struggling with his task to train four ghouls (young men and women).
* Touka is entrusted with the training of a new Anteiku employee, Roma. (!!!)

I think I should point this out: I got this part of the summary from 2ch's anime thread (it's a larger version of the summary on the anime's website). I do not know if it's fake or not. (I also wrote this in my original post.)

The rest (including what LG-Max added to episode 2's summary in an edit later) is confirmed, though.

Episode 2:

I think I'm getting more used to that new OP song now.

Spoiler:

And as for the episode, it was an interesting way to introduce the main and supporting characters again including Hinami and Amon. With all this buildup and Aogiri Tree making their move, I expect some big stuff to go down soon. And Kaneki, how will he be able to handle with his new responsibility? Guess we'll find out soon.

[LG-MAX 2.o]

great episode, it flowed very well, but unfortunately half of that summary was fake.

Spoiler for spoiler:

and FINALLY Arima.

[Tchadnis]

this episode was well placed , im kinda excited to see Kaneki on Aogiri Tree side it feel so much different

[R.LocK]

Wow, another insert song in English. Not bad.

Well, Juuzou, Akira and Eto currently make TG RA (oh, another thing to consider) for me. And music is just damn great.

[Jerseykid]

lots of new characters very exciting but i still want kaneki on the good guy side

[Raviel]

This is actually turning out to be far more interesting than I thought it would be. Between this episode and some of the promo images I'm actually looking forward to seeing how much more the anime departs from the manga.

As a manga reader I actually like how they put more emphasis on the "badass" side of post-torture Kaneki as opposed to the direction the manga took. It feels consistent with how his character development was handled in the 1st season while still more or less achieving the same effect as the manga (for me at least).

Also, if I had to take a guess, I think we'll be seeing more Touka/Kaneki moments from here onwards

[LG-MAX 2.o]

I'm still waiting to see Kaneki show something more than a face without feelings.

ost is wonderful

ps: the way the Eto runs and moves is always so cute.

[Tranhieu]

The piano pieces are surprisingly good! Also it's nice to see we will have more Eto moments this season compared to the manga.

[ookamigirl]

Things went back to normal, more or less.
It was pretty quiet this time too.
More time was dedicated to investigators & the aftermath.
We didn't get to see much of Kaneki..
Next episode could offer more excitement.

Spoiler for Episode 2:

I guess Eto and Kaneki's relationship will be key to the new story, question is what is the relationship. Even though it isn't sticking to the manga I am very curious about where they go with this.

[Wandering Soul]

Glad to see Arima and Akira is also entertaining. Eto is also keeping me interested. Looking forward to seeing more of Kaneki with Aogiri tree through.

[Death Usagi]

Eto plans to seduce Kaneki soon or something...?

I APPROVE

[DOmus]

Akira, perfect, those introduction scenes were funny in the manga and seeing them animated is cool
Ughhh I cannot like Uta and neither the other girl anymore, but they seem so good people here, its kinda weird
As always, Juuzou such a good character
Eto....want to see her more

Im not gonna lie, I do like this new version

[Arya]

Definitely a very good episode, I'm liking basically all the characters that's quite rare. I like also the fact that both sides are badasses in their ways and the powers are kinda balanced, more or less. Akira and Eto above all have picked up my interest. Oh, and obviously Juzo.

Yep, so do I, well, until Touka won't take him back.

[Death Usagi]

Although the story does have the manga stuff mixed in, it also shows new stuff so I really love how it is going so far.
