Hey, as someone who just finished re-watching the anime and has never, and will never, read the manga, I'd like to bring up my only gripe with this season. I don't mind the cliff hangers and the multiple questions that this season brought up, it kind of had a mysterious vibe throughout the season since so many things were left to interpretation/ the viewers best guess. Leaving the viewer in the dark is fun sometimes. This probably angered a lot of the manga fans who knew the answers to these questions and felt like people who didn't read the manga were getting a totally different experience. The thing that kind of sucked was the character you all called Arima. As someone who ONLY watched the anime, this character is not explained at all. he just kind of shows up in the last 3 episodes and flashes around a gold suitcase and then kills Kaneki. Where'd he come from? why is his suitcase gold? why does his sword quinque shoot fucking yellow lightning from its tip? Why has he only shown up in these last 3 episodes? where was he when they invaded the abandoned facility used for aogiri? most importantly, why does this character who didn't exist at episode 9, kill our main protagonist at episode 12? Have as many ambiguous characters and subplots as you want, but dont let a character with no development kill the poster-boy of the franchise. Kind of a cum-shot to the face if you ask me.
