Tokyo Ghoul Merchandise

The success of the Tokyo Ghoul manga series has been almost instantaneous since its release in 2011. Later in 2014, the anime adaptation only further underscored the series' worldwide popularity. As Tokyo Ghoul's fan base grew, a manga series by the original author was created, along with various OVAs, spin-offs, and live-action films, further cementing Tokyo Ghoul's influence in the manga and anime community. Many fans love the series for its striking artwork and its dark, complex world and themes. To give fans what they want, a wide range of merchandise based on the series has been created in a variety of different styles, from the classic dark and bleak tone of the manga and anime to a lighter style that highlights the characters' cute sides. From transparent files to cosplay, the catalog of Tokyo Ghoul merchandise is quite extensive. Among the incredible variety of choices, some of the most popular items include the "Tokyo Ghoul Group Hardcover Notebook", "Tokyo Ghoul Anime Visual Side (Tentative)", and "Tokyo Ghoul:re Acrylic Keychain Charm Collection".

Tokyo Ghoul Hardcover Notebook

This spiral-bound notebook features a design featuring some of the most powerful ghouls in the entire Tokyo Ghoul series. Alongside protagonist Kaneki, Nishiki Nishio, Uta, and Shu Tsukiyama are also featured. They all stare forward and appear ready to take down the members of Aogiri and the CCG. Each character is in a different pose that showcases their own unique personality, giving the cover a dynamic image and range of emotions. On the back cover, the series logo is printed in gray across the entire cover and is accompanied by blood splatters. The notebook's lined pages also each have a watermark of the series' title logo printed on them. That said, the clean black lines make it easy to write down anything you want to put in this notebook.

Tokyo Ghoul Anime Visual Side (Tentative)

This impressive book is a visual homage to the anime adaptation of Tokyo Ghoul and is published by the renowned Shueisha company. The cover of the book features protagonist Kaneki after his hair has turned white and his left eye has turned black and red. The back cover, however, shows Kaneki with a bright smile, a smile he had before transforming into a ghoul. The book itself contains many different pieces of art that were used in the anime adaptation of Tokyo Ghoul, although some work by the original author, Sui Ishida, is also included. The book is printed in Japanese and reads from right to left, although English speakers can still appreciate the many sketches and illustrations. Regardless, this book is perfect for any fan of the Tokyo Ghoul manga or its anime adaptations.

These little charms also measure about 2.5 inches tall, making them the perfect size to carry around as a charm. Each keychain also comes with a ball chain to allow the user to easily attach it to their phone, bag, or other belongings.

About Tokyo Ghoul

Tokyo Ghoul began as a manga series created by Sui Ishida and first published in 2011. Later in 2014, an animation series produced by the Pierrot animation studio and directed by Shuhei Morita aired between July and September. The story takes place in a world where cruel humanoid creatures called ghouls commit gruesome murders daily in Tokyo. The ghouls commit these crimes because they can only feed on human flesh, causing incredible fear in the city. The protagonist of the story is a timid young student named Kaneki Ken, who gets into an accident with a ghoul trying to devour him. Fortunately, he survives the incident but is forced to receive an organ transplant from the ghoul that tried to kill him. The operation kept Kaneki alive but transformed him into a half-ghoul in the process, changing his life forever.
