Can you consider yourself a true otaku if you’ve never watched Tokyo Ghoul? This is one of those anime that gave me a lifetime of trauma. Tokyo Ghoul, created by Sui Ishida and animated by Studio Pierrot, is considered one of the best horror-thriller anime.
Tokyo Ghoul characters are just amazing. It is a one-of-a-kind anime with a great plot and storytelling. Even its animation was great, and this is why it is globally popular among fans and critics.
But have you wondered who the strongest ghoul, quinx, and human in the series are? For some one-eyed ghoul or say half-human half-ghoul hybrid Ken Kaneki is said to be the strongest character, but Shuu Tsukiyama also has a huge fan base.
