Tokyo Ghoul 2014

The first season of the Tokyo Ghoul anime television series is adapted from Sui Ishida's manga series of the same name. The anime is produced by Pierrot and directed by Shuhei Morita. The season aired from July to September 2014 on Tokyo MX, TVO, TVA, TVQ, BS Dlife and AT-X. The season adapts the first 66 chapters of the manga. The series follows Ken Kaneki, a seventeen-year-old college student who survives an encounter with the binge-eating ghoul Rize Kamishiro, after having her organs transplanted into him. As a result, Ken became a half-ghoul, half-human hybrid, who learns the ghoul lifestyle after working at the ghoul-run cafe "Anteiku." Later he is captured by a dangerous ghoul, named Jason, due to the similarities he shares with Rize. The score is composed by Yutaka Yamada. The opening theme for the series is "Unravel" by TK from Ling Tosite Sigure, and the ending theme is "The Saints" (聖者たち, Seijatachi) by People In The Box. The anime series was released in Japan by TC Entertainment, with Marvelous handling the promotion of the series.
