Tokyo Ghoul Manga is Here

Tokyo-Ghoul

Viz Signature imprint of Viz Media has began publishing the North American edition of Tokyo Ghoul by Sui Ishida.  This is one that is popular in Japan and that usually means it will be popular here as well.  It is a horror series and is rated for “Older Teens”, which along with being a Viz Signature imprint, lets you know it will be mature in tone and will possibly have disturbing images.  This is my slate to read so hopefully it is worth the read as everyone says it is.  We will see.
