Tokyo Ghoul - Vol. 1: Volume 1 [Paperback] Sui Ishida

This is my first manga purchase. I previously only read some manga online, but this is my first time with the physical book. And I have to say, now, I am hooked to this feeling. However you read manga, or any other book for that matter, the feeling of having a solid book to read on your hand is different. In case of manga, one aspect of that is the details. You really sit and appreciate and savor all the art work that has gone into this book. I have spend about 45 mins in each chapter purely because I enjoy savoring each panel and details, the funny part is , I have never done that in a screen. I have not spend 45 mins just reading 1 manga chapter on my browser, I just glance over the images and read the dialogues. But this experience..........is different. Highly recommend, if you have only read manga online and never though physical book. Now I think I might buy the entire volume.

The volume has quality writing and introduced plenty of interesting characters. Ken is innocent and naive, which is most likely what landed him in the situation he is in. Ken’s best friend Hide is a loudmouth but appears to mean well and is highly perceptive of anything involving Ken. It is exciting to see how things will play out between them as Ken continues his transformation. He has to eventually deal with what he is becoming. I can’t help but wonder how long he can hide his new condition from his best friend. This aspect brings a bit more drama to the story.Ken doesn’t strike me as the strong and fighting type. It’s not that he’s weak; he just seems to lack the skills needed to accurately deduce the situations around him and that is what lands him in trouble. On the contrary, Ken and Hide are caught in a fight with a ghoul and Ken adequately defends himself and protects Hide while he is unconscious. During the fight, Ken had a flashback and recalled his first meeting with Hide and how they became friends. I enjoyed this part because it came at a crucial time and gave the readers a much stronger connection to Hide.The other characters that were introduced also play a key role in Ken’s new environment. Ken is slowly realizing that ghouls were always a lot closer than he once thought. This aspect blurs the line even further and shows just how close humans and ghouls truly are. It is shocking to see that the ghouls blend into society so easily. Ghouls didn’t look or act the way that I had imagined they would.

Quality is good and come in great condition but have some markes in front that aspects that happens in online orders

The media could not be loaded. There was a line of bending of some of the pages but the overall product wa good and satisfactory
