[Unboxing] Tokyo Ghoul √A

Tokyo Ghoul fans it has been a long wait since we released Season 1 back in October of last year but the time has finally come to bring you our release of the sequel series, Tokyo Ghoul √A, also known as Tokyo Ghoul Root A. Get the full details on our release below.

ABOUT TOKYO GHOUL √A

Synopsis: In modern day Tokyo, society lives in fear of Ghouls: mysterious creatures who look exactly like humans — yet hunger insatiably for their flesh. None of this mattered to Ken Kaneki, a bookish and ordinary young man, until a dark and violent encounter turned him into the first ever Ghoul-human half-breed. Picking up where the first season left off Ken continues onwards into the dark world he has found himself in.

WHAT’S INSIDE? WHAT’S ON THE DISCS?

Inside that a digipack to hold the two Blu-ray and there’s an hard back art book as well that comes with lots of information about the characters and the series itself, including an interview with the director who analyses the entire series episode by episode.

On the discs themselves you’ll find:

The complete series of Tokyo Ghoul √A, 12 episodes total.

WHAT DOES THE FINISHED PRODUCT LOOK LIKE?

And now it’s time to show you what the Limited Collector’s Edition Blu-ray looks like. As a note, it was another sunny day when we took these photos which is why you’ll see shadows lurking in them. It wasn’t us trying to add an ominous overtone to them at all…
