Description: Tokyo Ghoul
Ken Kaneki's date with a young woman almost turned-out to be a fatal one. It seemed that the girl, Rize Kamishiro, was a ghoul, an inhuman creature that devours human flesh to survive. However, the operation to save his life has only worsened his situation, as the doctor's used the now-deceased Kamishiro's organ's to replace his damaged ones.
Now Kaneki has become a human/ghoul hybrid, and is on the verge of losing his grip on sanity. Thankfully, though, Kaneki is taken-in with other ghouls. With their help, he must somehow find the means to survive in a human world, while at the same time must navigate the intricacies of ghoul society.
