Yoooo!! Thanks for watching, or even just clicking the video tbh! Like I say in the video, I got laid off from my 10 year+ job and life is a bit uncertain lately, so any comments, likes, subs, all of that helps more than you know!! And of course, peep the Patreon if you wanna go even further and directly help feed my ass lmao.
See you soon with what’s next, these videos should happen faster now that uhhhh im jobless lol!
Good luck man, love your content and I also got laid off a few days ago, the struggle is real.
Thanks, Finnish re a month ago. This was what I needed
Yo homey heard of Apocalypse Zero because I just got into it and it's one of the most metal as fuck manga I've seen and one of the weirdest and horniest. You've been warned.
-Help me budget, i've been laid off and my family is dying
-Stop spending hundreds of dollars at a time buying entire manga boxsets
-Slime: No
@@j.2512 Yeah this whole collection was bought in an entire month and not over the course of almost 10 years when I had more money/leas responsibility while also being split 50/50 cost wise with my fiancée absolutely yup you nailed it
No way one of my fav tubers dropping a video on my fav manga. Tokyo ghoul is an underrated masterpiece.
Reagrding Choujin X, you can tell 2 things from it.
1. Ishida is slow at making chapters cause holy moly the art is on another level. He is doing everything solo. No assistans. All him and you can tell thats a big reason why chapters can take months to release but it is worth it.
2. You can tell Ishida has fun making it and learned a lot from Ghoul. The characters are just as good if not better and while some moments are very grim, the tone is lighter than ghoul (for the most part cause this is Sui Ishida, you will sit thorough some messed up shit). You just get the feeling he is having a better time making it than TG and this results in an overall better reading experience
Ghoul has better characters imo
Felt that Ishida gave them way more bite
I really want to enjoy choujin but i just cant, idk what it is i just cant enjoy it 😭😭
And I’m beyond happy he isn’t under pressure anymore. It’ll always give tg a melancholy feeling bc you can tell he was just ready to be done by the ending of :re
Damn man lay offs are NOT EASY. As this is my dream too, I'm definetly subbing to the Patreon. Wish you the best of luck out in the world!
Yoooo I really appreciate that!!
the thing is, kubo admitted he drew the white/blank backgrounds because he didn't want to draw buildings out of laziness anymore, it's also why he started allowing his characters to fly in the later arcs, so that he didn't have to draw backgrounds while they were fighting in the sky. it's why 80% of the fake karakura town war arc battles took place in the sky. you can also imagine where the idea of hueco mundo came from in terms of world design/art-style. it's a completely different reason from why ishida used white backgrounds.
I would kill for a fan animation of Herald of Darkness with Tokyo Ghoul
okay you’re on to something good here
dang honestly i wrote off tokyo ghoul way back because i only saw the anime but now that i see the art you got me wanting to check it out. i love the exaggerated expression in this panel at 16:59. good shit as usual hope my comment helps with engagement.
Thanks for a great video.
love , this is my favourite manga , great video
What a wonderful video essay and beautiful message. It really resonated with me this time. I wish you the best!
Another great vid, you stay dropping heat 🔥🔥🔥
Appreciate that!
Great video bro
just found your channel through this video, this is such a great runthru! im glad you took the time to talk about the end message. i hope you get through being laid-off without much trouble 🙏
Keep up the good work mr slime!❤
Amazing video as usual man, you're easily my favorite creator with this stuff. Keep killing it my dude 🙏🏻
you are appreciated brother
smt 3 sound test earned you a sub instantly, good video
great video
Loved the vid and agreed with you. My favorite manga and I'm still upset how the adaptation was done. You got yourself a new subscriber.
Great vídeo
LETSS GOO!! I’ve been looking forward to a new upload from you, you’re a large part of the reason why I rediscovered how much I love manga and anime. I love your videos, thank you for making them! Tokyo Ghoul needs an anime remake, the current one doesn’t do the manga justice at all. Sorry to hear about your job, hope things start looking up for you soon.
hey man i enjoyed this heaps, hope the job stuff works out for you in the end
Been a fan for loooong time, miss your manga hauls
Ayyyeee thank you! Hoping once I get more in the flow of full time video working I can do something with the collection again, also the algorithm hates it lmao
Honestly this video is hitting me at the right time, and I really fell into that trap of writing it off because of its anime adaptation, so I’m totally gonna give it a read now as well, thanks man! And chin up about the job thing, that stuff is rough but you seem like you’re rockin the right mindset!
Really cool video
tokyo ghoul is great!!! I’m so glad you made this!! I’d watch comic videos or anything you drop 🔥🔥🔥
Hell yeah thank you!
oh nice Tokyo ghoul is underrated imo
One of the best out there tbh
The King he has Returned with another banger
🫡🫡🫡
Great video as always. Don't have too much to say about Tokyo Ghoul though as I've only ever watched the anime's first season when it came out way back when. Despite being somewhat spoiled watching this video, I still do plan to collect and read the manga when the appropriate time comes. And please try to keep your head up with the whole job situation. As someone that had been unemployed three separate times in the past 10-to-11 years, I know how hard finding a new job can be sometimes. So, I know this probably doesn't help but, I wish you nothing but the best and hope you'll be here on youtube long into the foreseeable future.
if a manga is making money in legacy sales mangakas have an economic incentive to stall new chapters as long as possible. Every new chapter that releases will make the series trend again and sell more back issues, keeping it relevant longer. . Without actually having to do that many chapters, its the most money for less amount of work. HxH could never relase a new chapter but it will still make money for example because people keep discussing it and buying the volumes.
Its not about "muh takes months to draw one page" , specially when its known they are either not working at all or working on other things for large stretches of time
Really hope you do a video on Choujinx someday its still ongoing but its shaping up to be something just as good as tg hope everything goes well with your situation ❤
Bruh, this came at just the right time. I forgot how much I loved the TG manga and after a long day, this was like hearing from an old friend. Hope things look up for you soon (and lil Vash is such a cutie!)
Can confirm that he’s the best! Thank you!!
Sui Ishida is a guy, he literally has a youtube channel where he record drawing manga on stream.
Another great video!! Can’t wait to see what you’re cookin next
Perfect timing, just finished rereading ghoul and started re
If you're looking for more tragedy, Land of the Lustrous (Hoseki No Kuni) just finished its 12 year run. It has 12 volumes printed on English so far with a last one coming soon
Yes!! 98% chance you’ll see me do a video on it before the year is over lol
I remember I was following the series 2017-2018 up until the last final chapter released and I remember feeling that things got rushed and felt empty…. But watching this video helped me to remember why I loved reading Tokyo Ghoul and how profound the writing and messages of the story were. Thank you for reminding me of those memories.
Great video, it always makes me happy to see Tokyo Ghoul still being relevant in 2024
One of my favourite chapters from TG is the chapter of Kaneki roaming around Japan as Dragon. It’s a completely textless chapter that perfectly captures the utter horror and chaos of a giant fucking Kaiju cancer thing stomping through a metropolitan area. Tokyo Ghoul has been and still is one of my favourite series of all time and really hope more people can enjoy it.
As for Choujin X it’s pretty good too I stopped reading it around chapter 40 cause I was keeping up with the releases of chapters and wanted to wait for the full thing to be done so I can read it all from start to finish.
ya boy is back with a fresh video! Sorry about getting laid off man, I might be feeling that sting soon too...Looks like you're growing as a channel tho which you defo deserve. Stay up man.
Ayee thanks man!! Appreciate that
TG has one of the best manga art style for sure
58:00 Update... We did not get a remake of Tokyo Ghoul... It was a fucking exhibition 😭🙏
Great video! Though it's not manga, I'd like to add that Ishida is also the main artist and writer of a game called Jack Jeanne. Highly recommend it.
Another Banger, also it would be dope if you did a vid on xmen
I remember being unemployed in 2020 and wanting to watch tokyo ghoul. I always watched it high asf and when I reached the RE part of the story, I was so lost i thought i had smoked my brain to oblivion
Banger ‼️‼️‼️
good luck mate
is that the customize character background music from Tekken tag 2 I hear? "your own sunset" I think it's called?
Have you thought about reading Battle Angel Alita? I think it might be up your alley. Its one of my favorite manga series and would love to see more people talk about it.
I have read the first part and loved it! Need to read the rest and see how I feel about it
one day tokyo ghoul will get the anime treatment it deserves
So when are we gonna get the Sopranos retrospective?
nah just joking but another 10/10 video. glad I joined your patreon.
tokyo ghoul was a series that I dismissed as just tumblr edgy fodder but seeing you praise the series on your instagram and this video, i might check it out
and yeah I'll love to see you tackle american comics (espicially ultimate spider-man)
Sopranos retrospective absolutely coming one day you can count on it lol
And Ult Spider-Man was what got me into American comics so it’s one of the first on the video list!
@@SlimeFancypants I actually just started watching The Sopranos recently. Just finished season 3 and really enjoying it. Can't wait to see your Sopranos & Ultimate Spider-Man video in the future. Tokyo Ghoul is another manga I need to read, cause the anime left a bad first impression on me just like you.
my favorite seinen
Hey Slime one day in future could you cover D.Gray-man?
It’s on the list! Just waiting to see how the ending/final arc goes so I can get my full thoughts out!
You've made me remember just why I cared about TG so much gfdi 😭😭😭
OH SHIT!!!!! RIZA was being stalked to be killed...the beams were the factions of the ghouls!! I love hearing this videos,i always get new info out of em. Hell i still watch Bleach video over and over since 2022, and STILL grab pieces..great video ❤
I remember reading the last arc just being constantlt scared that Ishida would kill off Touka+Kid to give Kaneki a final push.
I was honestly unsure if the story would be granted a happy alending.
I cried reading the final chapters.
Thank you for going over the themes of Tokyo Ghoul and what it’s really about. A lot of anime fans think that Tokyo Ghoul is either some kind of emo show or a Yaoi as a lot of fan girls ship Kaneki with Hide without knowing that he’s straight. Hell, they tend to hate off Touka for getting in the way of Kaneki x Hide and they make up bs excuses like that she was abusive towards Kaneki, that she just uses Kaneki for sex and that she got herself pregnant just to keep Kaneki from leaving. They don’t even know Touka’s side of the story and what she’s going through. Thank god that Kaneki and Touka ended up together because these two deserve a happy ending.
Tokyo ghoul needs a good remaster like it was so underrated
Tokyo ghoul was great, but shortly after ending it Ishida would drop his true masterpiece, "This Gorilla Will Die in 1 Day."
This manga is only second to berserk for my buddies and I. Beyond underrated. RE was incredible too. Plot twist galore. Topic of race and true freedom was ahead of it time. Season one of the anime is top 5 anime imo. And let’s not forget that opening 😱
you should make a video about shinishi sakamoto mainly about his work kokou no hito as a retrospective
Yeah that’s absolutely on the list! Hoping to see if it gets an official translation for better scans since both Innocent & DRCL are!
An X-Men retrospective sounds awesome. Go for it!
the manga and 2017 live action were peak
Tokyo Ghoul is a masterpiece. Almost anything in the manga was planned before hand even giving you subtles hints that you only are aware in a second read. And yes, Ken Kaneki is one of the best seinen protagonist out there
Been loving the channel fam!
sucks the miraculous fumbling of the anime has tainted the series street cred even though 80% of the people hating count watching 2 retrospectives and a recap as having read the mf.. niggas just straight out here not knowing the art in the manga goes soooo hard and the anime came out in the period where most anime adaptations were ,in retrospect, the embodiment of mid (though they still doing god tier manga dirty today)
Idk what's worse the fact that I used to think stuff like ghoul and Baki wouldn't ever be adapted well or that post jjk lowkey raising the bar way back up (the boarding and direction on one piece has been insane since jjk popped tf off I know I'm not tripping) I now have to live in a world where the baki vs yujiro fight, the initial climax of the entire story, didn't even get a quarter of the love sukuna vs mahoraga which was like one mf chapter ,got... but hey maybe Tokyo ghoul will get that re:do badumtss... sorry
Ps I still crack my knuckles like jason/kaneki freaky asses 12 years later😂
Pps would dig if you ever cover baki or kikaida/some other ishinomori joints feel like youd dig that vintage edge
Was not expecting the jojo siwa jumpscare in the intro. I literally cant escape her 😭🫠
Damn finding out the anime isn't liked is like finding out Fairy Tale wasnt liked
TG is so talked down about, them not knowing or understanding how much of a great masterpiece the series is. Thank u for making this video, TG is my biggest obsession in life🫡
Please make a psycho pass or Gen Urobuchi video
No shot youre making a tokyo ghoul vid in the current year.
Was a long time hater of this series because the anime felt just mid at best and fell apart after season 1. Only like 2 years ago I finally decided to give the manga a try since ive heard about it over the years and im a much more well read person.
And holy christ the manga blew me away completely. Borderline masterpiece and an easy 9/10 manga for me. Its such a tragedy the anime was made way to early to properly adapt the sheer artistic talent ishida has.
Haha those meme of kanaki sublime
need a video on land of the lustrous now that’s it’s over 👀
That’s absolutely on the list!
In do have to say there was growth..
I saw one person have Kanaki as top notch written character..I blew it off..but you know kanaki WAS GOOD.
Have you read chojin x
I mean when you talk about the hard R being used in X-Men to compare to being called a mutie/other racist term for mutant, it is extremely comparable when you look at it from the perspective of being in the X-Men universe. Especially with how mutants have canonically been treated in the past and current times of X-Men.
It's hard not to see the various complicated Mentor/parent-Student/Child relationships as expressions of Ishida coming to terms with his own estranged family life. honestly I never thought that tokyo ghoul A series I mainly remember for the Centipede scene has one of the most profound and personal stories out there. Also going out there if we do get an anime reboot it has to be by studio Orange because I think Ishida's style would work much better in 3d.
weekly young jump is not by shogakukan it is from shueisha
yeah i normaly bing read manga sometimes in an all night like whole as 14 hours seshes and i allways regret reading it so fast i feel like i dont get savour the food but its also nice idk
It’s my favorit manga.
I played sports until 9 yrs,then my mom got me n bro on instruments..my bro stopped..but I had 'IT" bass first...then drums because my mom paid a month😂 and thwn guitar was the thing.
So, i wanted to quit sport but my dad said no..and went to the extreme by groundong me from guitar😢. At the time i hated it..then i reflected on it..and my dad line was "there nothing worse then wasted talent"
And asked my dad and he said i was write.
My dad saw my talent and passion for music..then he knew i wasnt wasting it,but moving it over
Young jump is Shueshia
Not Shogakuan
Kaneki is one of the greatest characters in all of media imo
Did you watch/read Kekkai Sensen?
And sakamoto days ?
Waiting on them both to end! Part 3 of B3B just started so once they both wrap up I’m in there. Read 40 chapters of Sakamoto Days and loved it
Yeah, been meaning to read this one too...once I have a few days. Hell, just caught up on Jujutsu Kaisen...and then there's catching up on One Piece...
Dgrayman is the sibling of Tokyo Ghoul
Wait a damn minute.....if I remember these ghouls can't be pierced by normal metals...so how the f did kineki or whatever his name is got his organ transfer if the (badie mom) ghoul can't....be...operated...by normal doctors.....
the only good thing that came out of the anime was the fact that its trailer made me go check the manga,back in the day the manga just finished the jason "arc" so i drank every chapter in one sitting without even a break to drink water!xD
I feel your pain. Gettin laid off sucks ass
The way you pronounce kaneki bothers me but great video!
Reminds me of the short were people got angry at a Japanese guy for how he says Katana.
Needs more clown seamen
Kaneki is seriously one of the best edgy characters (in a good way) - loving the video my man! Fellow emo kids unite lol
Bro I’m cooking some weiniez and eggs rn but as soon as I hear my boy lost his job my ass subbed
Whats a layoff
In America a job can decide they want to eliminate the position and basically they fire you, but since you didn’t do anything wrong, the job itself is just gone, it’s called being “laid off” so that it isn’t as bad sounding as “fired” lol.
yeah~ i'm gonna deeply disagree with the mangaka on that "thanking your abusers" bs
love the video, hate how you say ken kaneki
you know what
fair enough
You missed a very fun mobile game tokyo ghoul Re: birth
You did an amazing job on pronunciation and the video is amazing
No he did not 💀💀
give us the X-Men videos Slime
🫡🫡🫡
Umineko video one day? 👀
ONE DAY
knew a woman who had nightmare before Christmas tattoos and her whole chest tattoed with a logo of Bring Me the Horizon, now in her 30s. She has permanently scarred by the mid 2000s.
