Now where you suppose they might find somebody, without any bothersome next of kin to say no to such a worthy request? Unfortunately for Ken, after her late-night snack, he's in need of an organ donor. Fortunately for him whilst she is in the middle of pouncing on him and his kidneys (after he's chivalrously offered to walk her home) some scaffolding collapses, killing her instantly. It is, obviously, as she is a ghoul who's decided Ken is going to be her Special Of The Day. When our shy central protagonist, bookworm Ken Kaneki, is invited out for a dinner date by the glamorous Rize, it all seems too good to be true. These attacks aren't frequent enough to cause mass panic, or indeed apparently to stop people walking the streets alone at night, but obviously people are concerned. Then, occasionally, the half eaten remains of some poor unfortunate will be found on the pavement in the morning. No one has ever caught a ghoul, but people suspect that they are walking amongst the population hiding in human form. Set in a modern-day Tokyo haunted by 'ghouls' with a taste for human flesh, it's a horror with comedic undertones for reasons I will elaborate on shortly. we finally got in the manga title seemingly everyone's been desperate for and I thought I better give it a read. da da da, dara da da, da da da dara da da."
