Talk:Ken Kaneki/@comment-4923977-20150411055914

I started to realize there are things in Tokyo Ghoul which someone (may) think are original, but aren't. But just because there are similarities with some other anime/manga series doesn't mean I hate it now or anyone should hate it. I still like Tokyo Ghoul. I'm pretty sure that a lot, like a lot of animes that are cliché. Tokyo Ghoul is one of my top 10.

Anyway, I thought Kaneki was an original name in the animanga world, but it's not. See this character from Another (2009) which came before Tokyo Ghoul (2011). Both series are horror and gore. I wonder if that's were Ishida got the name. Another is worth seeing if you want to see some gore.
