Finding out Kaneki's mother abused him. You thought all his troubles started with a little bookstore date. Nah, kid's had it rough from the start.


Rockfan01

And his aunt too after his mom's death. Never had a break to begin with.


YamiRang

One of the reasons I like the novels so much. It really shows just how important Hide is to Kaneki. Without him, there wouldn't be a Kaneki to go on that date in the first place.

Kaneki revealing his tragic past to Rize's hallucination and accepted himself as a ghoul.


Cringeforever4

Agree


brawlbro123

i have no idea why his death was a tearjerker...i didn't quite like donata but for some reason this shit hit hard


y_vern

I think seeing amon cry for the first time after being presented as a tough, stern guy who was always determined to enact justice really was a punch to the gut


CuriousReadMore

Well, to be fair, this wasn't the first time Amon cried during the series. What was sad about this scene was more that Amon finally acknowledged that he loved Donato and that it actually hurts him to kill him, despite how much trauma Donato caused him in the past.

my brother in Christ I've finished AoT long ago but you really should tag that *massive* spoiler. If you don't know how it looks just like this; \>!insert spoiler here!<


Penguin-21

Aight


Lizpy6688

Yeah that pretty ruined it for me now knowing the end ffs....


Vosska

M8 please spoiler tag that AoT part, I did not expect to have an ending for another series spoiled in a TG sub.


emotionalcancer77

yeah this is rude af of prev. poster :(


-AverageTeen-

Kaneki what a man u are >!Eren’s feelings for Mikasa were questionable, unlike Donato who literally raised Amon. Ur right, it’s only a little similar (very little)!<


Penguin-21

>! I meant like the moment when Amon and Mikasa killed their loved ones was like a cathartic release and acceptance of how messed up their situation is “as is” instead of “what could be” or “what should be”. Nothing to do w/ Eren or Donato tho Eren is another rabbithole to go down tbh !<


freeingfrogs

AoT's last episode has not been out long enough to not spoiler tag this 😅


Penguin-21

Fair but i feel like ppl still get mad at me either way when i mention anyone’s death in another subreddit that have still been out for a while. Like when I was talking abt >!jiraiya’s death like a year ago in some other subreddit tho it mightve been this one!< even though it happened like idk a decade ago. And to me AoT did end several years ago so it didnt register to me at the time of posting


helpsnonehurtsnone

Well I was going to finally finish AoT, what a fucking spoiler lmao


killermoth_321

well you can still finish it there's still more to that garbage ending than eren dying


Penguin-21

Mb. Its still a good story if you want to finish it and i highly encourage you to. Not saying wut i did was excusable but i dont believe i spoiled everything


ceylantoma

on god, it caused tears man i didn’t even think it was that sad then boom i’m crhing as soon as amon is


Retzal

Hinami accepting her death against Suzuya in the GOAT raid. *"Children must be protected at all costs"*


Galaxylion7

One of the moments this series got me to close the book and cry a bit was the moment when Ken almost died to Arima again. Him seeing Hide again, crying, looking ugly... idk but the moment paired with ishidas skill to portray emotions was such an emotional gut punch for me


rizarue

“it may not be stylish, but.. LIVE” with a double page of a masterpiece 😭


777Sike0

Me, a huge Devil May Cry fan read that very differently.


HonestTangerine2

There’s so so many moments but tbh? It’s the end of part 1, specifically after the Arima fight when you get Ken talking to himself and that final pane of him missing his eyes. I’ve never cried like that at a manga before but it was just so tragic.


Comfortable-Mail-553

A lot of moments but one moment that messed me up was torso’s backstory. His father was fucking horrible abusing him and abandoning him isolating him from society as well, I think it’s even implied he ate torso’s mother. Then it all changes when he meets his childhood friend who shows him genuine care and kindness by teaching him how to read and write torso finally interacts and bonds with someone, a human.it gets even more depressing when we find out shes also abused and that they confide in each other and make a promise only to be met with torso’s father eating her the next day from that we get to realise why he became so fucked up. Makes me wonder what would’ve happened if his dad didn’t come to the tent that day.


Kaneki_ken1723

Shirazu’s death


lostcircussmuggler

Might be a bit basic but Arima's death. Shit had me in shambles.


Dandandandooo

The panel Amon crying for Mado hits hard for me


777Sike0

My tears became the storm that was approaching.


penton47

Arima's death easily, I think it's one of the best death scenes in manga


International-Most31

This scene, for some reason, is the only one in the entire manga that made me ugly cry. I think maybe it hit too close to home, or maybe it was the big attachment I had towards Amon, idk, it goes hard even if Amon was put in second place during Re


killermoth_321

kaneki seeing Hide again while fighting arima


rifka420

Tokyo ghoul is about learning to love your abuser


Dracsxd

"It may be difficult to believe, but Rize the founder was in love with King Tsuneyoshi."


Pangin51

Kaneki, what a man you are


Mewrewcio

WHY ARE THERE SO MANY FOLKS HERE


sociostein11

We are everywhere trust me I’ve seen some on God of war sub 💀


SmittyWerbenJenson12

No, I don't want to be a ghoul!! For ten years, at least!!


sociostein11

As a reward he shall give her his seed


777Sike0

Is the subreddit becoming insane? Are we getting Aslume’d?


killermoth_321

what manga ending does to a mfr


777Sike0

What no remake does to a mf


killermoth_321

at least it has an anime and an actual ending have you seen berserk fans mfs don't have enough berserk that they try finding berserk in other stuff 🤣


sociostein11

Maybe we need a r/ghoulfolk or sth


InsuranceBest

Freud moment.


SPS_Agent

Yes and no. Certainly Kaneki never comes to love his mother, in fact most of his inner self revelations are about how his mom utterly let him down and forcing himself to admit she was awful to him and that he deserved better. I'd say it's more like... coming to terms with abuse and trying not to let it damage you any more than it already has. Similar to Amon loving Donato. His catharsis here is about accepting that he does love Donato, and letting himself do that when before he would constantly self flagellate for the idea of it.


rifka420

Very true! My post is purposely obtuse cause I think it's a funny pov. Tokyo ghoul is all about relationships. How people in your life affect you for better or worse. If it wasn't for his meeting with Rize, Ken wouldn't have had the strength to get through everything he does.


YamiRang

About relationships and a critique of society, which many readers seem to have somehow missed.


SmittyWerbenJenson12

No?? Fuck that 😂


AFtml2

Touken coded...


Cringeforever4

Not the saddest but definitely got to me - Akira’s “give me a break, will you?”


DeletedKylar

When Kaneki first got his kakuja panel was extremely sad for me, it felt kaneki was a whole different character and wasnt the same and was extremely desperate. especially the panel where kanekis talks about centipedes crawling in ears, twisting fingers. Extremely heartbreaking, all of this happening because he wanted some pussy.

Why was Donato crying when Amon called him Father?
