This song fits the overall story of the anime at that time, how it captures Kaneki's deepest fear and sadness. Kudos for the song choice and the animation, it was perfect. I just hope people would appreciate and understand it more.

I can see and feel the pain,loneliness and suffering kaneki is going through all alone while trying to save his loved ones and not become a monster himself. I myself went through alot of suffering and thoughts of suicide for many years and seeing this made me fully relate to his pain. Nevertheless I haven't seen a more beautiful opening to this day!

About four episodes, in I started to really analyze it, the symbolism, lyrics, instrumentation etc. That's when I had finally realized this was a perfect opening for the way the story had shifted. Bottom line is, I love it lmao.

    THIS SERIES IS "SEINEN" NOT "SHOUNEN" god dammit. I seriously don't see why everyone doesn't like the song, like, Unravel was focused on how he was transitioning from human to ghoul, now Incompetence is all about how he deals with these tribulations and trials as he isn't the same Kaneki he was anymore. Mentally this deals with him now, not physically anymore. It's the sadness of the show - the struggle of being half human half ghoul - if you were Kaneki and survived all that crap would you still call yourself human? Anyways in the start of the song there are nice calm colors then the colors become dark and violent then going back to calm colors. Rize put his masks on telling him he's a monster ( results in the bloody colors ) Touka takes it off ( saying that he's still human ) The song itself represent change. This song is beautiful and the lyrics may seem weird, but they aren't actually "random" they hold a meaning. You just have to really think about what they could mean. As much as I love unravel & TK. I have to say, I'm really in love with this song.

Sure it's not up beat or fast paced but so many other things make up for it like the Chang in time signatures, that had to be so delicately planned and don't even get me started on the instrumentals!!! Needless to say, this is my favorite op from the series and always will be. Props to the composer of this amazing song!

    This is how I see the opening: So the first pair of hands (Rize I think) made him feel like a ghoul, which was something he didn’t want to accept for the longest time. He even looked sad as she put her hands over his eyes. After that he looks up from the ground as if he’s accepting and coming to terms with it. The second pair of hands (either Touka’s or Hide’s) made him feel more human, and were comforting as they showed up around him in an embrace, but it saddened him because he knows he’s no longer a full human. This could be shown because his left eye is the only one crying, and it’s crying blood. All the pain he went through was because of his ghoul side.

    @fogshaka80799 жыл бұрын

    If you're interested in finding meaning to this opening, here's my line by line analysis using the official translation. I had a dream/ It was of the time we were born/ We lived such a beautiful life/ in a city of wombs. Knowing a prostitute is mentioned later in the opening and this is the city of wombs, we can assume this metaphorical setting is a city of prostitution, representing a place of sin and continuously birthed hate. The we are the children of these prostitutes, born out of sin, evidenced by the line it was of a time we were born. They are the ghouls. They are born out of evil (and the lust of flesh-- double entendre here). So again, the "We" are the children birthed from evil and hate (ghouls). We lived such a beautiful life implies that these children (ghouls) tried to live happily and innocent, supported by the line We clapped our hands and smiled. This refers to the main cast in Anteiku. But then comes We drank the paint dry/ The colors of the rainbow changed. They lived life trying to be happy with each other, but in the end, they are what they are, children of sin (ghouls). Their happiness is overwhelmed by this fact with that sense of being (sense of sin) never going away (because the ghouls have to continuously eat meat and survive, reminding them of who they are). Thus, the artificial happiness, the "paint" of that rainbow, was "drank dry." This refers to the melancholy of the cast in living with themselves as ghouls, as well as the beginning of Kaneki's realization of those feelings they have when he sees that ghouls are practically humans too. Children of prostitutes, even if "sinful," are obviously humans. Next, We started wanting to be held/ I couldn't walk alone anymore/ We smiled at each other. These children have to support themselves to survive. It's almost a parallel to the struggles we saw in Anteiku (or the entire beginning of this series). These ghouls are just trying to live in comfort, and have to get rid of the barriers between themselves (not have internal fights with other ghouls ie. Nishio). It refers to them clinging onto each other as they were when they were happy, but this time, out of desperation. It can also be referenced to Hinami and Touka's questioning of their lives as ghouls when they faced Mado, but everyone supported them to get through it. We gave our love to toys refers to them sticking together to fight out their opposition (investigators). The "toys" are their masks, but this line mostly serves to intensify the bond being created with the ghouls. Then, I wish we could destroy/ The untouchable children using simple words! The "we" in this instance is back to the timeline of when the opening first plays. The children from before are older, and this line is after the "dream" has been described. Or, you could look at dream, as in hopes, and the timeline would still match up. Regardless, this "we" is that generation grown, or more experienced. They wish they could end the continuously birthed hate in their city (of prostitution/ghouls) which they are stuck in using "simple words," meaning without violence. They want peace living with their sin (peace between the ghouls and humans) and for this notion of them (the ghouls) being "untouchable children" to vanish (including those feelings of hate to future unborn, and hence, untouchable ghouls-- two possible meanings). However, The prostitute spat fire/ In a faraway city, somebody died. The prostitute is the original being of the ghoul. The origin of that sin. Kaneki went to a faraway city, away from the city of wombs (of sin) because he tried to leave that sin behind (referring to him leaving the cycle of hatred) to make peace. However, he was caught in the fire/hell of the ghouls cycle of hate, and his former self died there, in that faraway city where he tried to make things right. (Notice how it is purposefully not the "city of wombs," but rather a "faraway city.") EDIT!!: That last line. I need you to know that I've changed my mind about that. The prostitute spat fire is Rize (basically) talking trash about Kaneki while he's being tortured. Remember how he imagined her saying that he was weak and all the rest of that? The original being of the ghoul, as represented by Rize (which is fitting because she's a binge eater) had broken his mind during those torture sessions and changed him into who he is now because he listened to that. After the prostitute spat fire, in other words, when he listened to imaginary Rize's words, he "accepted" he was a ghoul and changed. (The old Kaneki has still died, but the words prior to that now make much more sense in the context of what was going on). I loved this opening, and couldn't stand people hating it. Do you like it a little better now? It sure as hell is tragic though. Edit: Furthermore, the line city of wombs does not itself have a negative connotation. So what does this mean? It is a city of metaphorical prostitution (evil) yes, but the "womb" is generally known as a place where babies are nurtured. As such, the idea of ghouls supporting each other in a peaceful, human way is implied from this early point as well. This city is given a double meaning in which it is both good and evil. Specifically, this must be referring to the point where Kaneki was quickly integrated into their "evil/sinful" society (Anteiku) consisting of people who loved each other since the lines right before talk about birth-- the beginning of it all in those peaceful days at Anteiku. Of course, it has its general meaning to do with the whole of the ghoul world as well, which is what we understand when we first analyze it. In my eyes, the opening is amazing, given the fact that the entire story of Kaneki's integration into the ghoul world all the way up to his "death" is secretly within the lines. Seriously, HOLY SHIT! Not just him, but the entire story of the ghouls. NOW GIVE IT ANOTHER LISTEN!! Edit 2: Also, when I say this opening should be appreciated, I don't limit my advocation to the lyrical context of the song, but the actual melody. Tokyo Ghoul is supposed to be a tragedy, and having two "ending" style themes especially hits that point home and really captures the melancholy atmosphere which characterizes a lot of Ishida's original manga. It's an atmosphere which I love (personally). It's a matter of taste, but there's that. (Still, if you listen to it more, I bet you'll like the melody too. Listen to the crazed harmony of those drums beating against the rhythm of piano, with complementing, but not overly rough contrast to the soothing voice of the singer! Come on!) But if you don't like it, I guess you don't like it. Please do not judge this post by my view on how the opening should be appreciated though. Judge it by what I've found in the lyrics. Anyways, I've given you the main points of my analysis. If you look at it with this understanding, it'll mean a lot more, or at least be more intriguing (yeah, it was a little weird for me at first too). I hope you liked this breakdown! The rest of the post is not analysis of the Opening, so you may stop here Edit 3: In regards to whether or not the song was produced with a specific connection to Tokyo Ghoul. So, the question: Is the analysis relevant considering the song may have been chosen for Tokyo Ghoul instead of created for Tokyo Ghoul? What if it was just fitted in? My answer: There is a summary TLDR on the bottom. If you want to know more though-- If this song was not "meant" for Tokyo Ghoul, one must then think of the purpose it was chosen to represent it through the lens of the producers who fit it into the themes of Tokyo Ghoul. Thus, the meaning derived from what they (the ones who selected this song for the OP) deduced in relation to Tokyo Ghoul must be considered. As such, the OP retains A meaning having to do with Tokyo Ghoul, as opposed to THE meaning which the song was originally produced for. Regardless, a deeper layer holds true to the anime then, for that is what the ones who chose this song have created by having the song represent it. Consequently, it doesn't even matter if the producer of the song thought of Tokyo Ghoul at all. To reiterate, it now matters why this is the opening, and why it was chosen to be from an original song (with original meaning). But by transitive property, it now is relative to Tokyo Ghoul. By choosing it as the OP, the producers have breathed life into it through the lens of Tokyo Ghoul (from their own vision of the relationship), making the original song meaning irrelevant in the context of the anime. Thus, all analysis of the song in relation to Tokyo Ghoul is relevant for we are now searching for that vision. However, does the fact that the song was not intended for the anime detract from its meaning? That's your own call, but I would say an artist would tell you that part of the beauty of art is that it means different things to different people, and if we are to respect this, it means that the validity of reasonable interpretation holds true when presented with an ambiguous piece of art (and music obviously, for music is an art), of which this opening is (at least the selected portion which plays as the opening, for nothing relatable to an otherwise concrete meaning is given). As such, what is being said is the same, except through the voice of the anime developers rather than the band. And if that is true, which it must be, if it were not the band (for the song would not have been chosen otherwise), the depth of the lyrical connection is no less potent. Keep in mind though that the possible original meaning behind the song should have greater respect than the analysis of it in relation to Tokyo Ghoul if it indeed does have its own truth. Since we do not seem to know it though, it is safe to hold on to the thought of a different meaning while looking at it this way and wholly accepting it. The preceding notion of ambiguity within this song further supports the development of having branching connections to the lyrics of it, which supports that the song may justifiably be connected to Tokyo Ghoul if not already justified under my defined notion of visions holding respect in and of themselves. Once more, a connection to Tokyo Ghoul has become even more viable. Keep in mind that the song, in the end, may actually have been intended for TG to begin with anyways (which is what I think as of now). In the end, what remains is that all evidences allow for analyses to be established. In truth, what I have said also affirms this analysis as my own vision and thus, also a true vision to those who find it as "reasonable interpretation" (who believe it to be true as the connection the lyrics have to the anime). Now to each of us, that meaning has been solidified and made true if we still believe it as reasonable interpretation, because we would otherwise not think it a valid interpretation if we did not believe it to be a viable real one. So, if you find this analysis as reasonable interpretation, and think it explains the lyrical relation, for you, it has actually become the real meaning of the lyrics (in relation to Tokyo Ghoul) on the contingency an official statement from the band explaining the lyrics' relation to Tokyo Ghoul is not released. If it were the anime developers releasing the statement, they could only be explaining their vision, in which case this analysis has just as much credibility as their statement. If the band says that it was not made for TG, then like I've said, their intent should be respected, although allowing the song to represent the anime has now separated their original meaning in context of Tokyo Ghoul. Edit 3 TLDR: What I have proven to you is that it is pointless to dismiss the lyrics as irrelevant, or not made for Tokyo Ghoul. www.reddit.com/r/TokyoGhoul/comments/2rwlrh/extensive_analysis_of_tokyo_ghoul_a_opening/ +Saib17

    Tapp I really love the opening of season one, but this opening really sets the tone of the story in my opinion. I feel people confuse this anime for a narration of heroic bloodshed when in actuality the story commits its self to an epic tragedy. The dichotomy of the opening to the action in the show portrays the inner struggle of the main character in an almost noir fashion. Although the mental struggle of him becoming a monster in his mind is not portrayed as well as it was in the manga. "The noir hero is a knight in blood caked armor. He's dirty and he does his best to deny the fact that he's a hero the whole time." - Frank Miller

    To be fair the opening for season 1 wasn't anywhere near as "generic" as other animes. For starters it didn't have any action like most OPs do, it revolved more around showing the contrast of kaneki's human and ghoul sides, and it showed touka as a human when she's walking by showing her regular eye and in her reflection it shows her ghoul eye. It shows she's just as human as kaneki is and not a monster. This OP seems revolves more around the sadness of the entire 2nd season and showing kaneki's feelings.

    I think the part, "we wanted to be held", refers to Kaneki wishing that his mother chose him over his aunt as a child. The hands putting on the mask are actually Rize's. This represents his sane side after he learned the truth of the world he lives in. The hands taking off the mask would be his mom's, this is him remembering the crazy side of him, (before he was a ghoul). As a child, his aunt abused him for trying to be better than her kids, hence the, "untouchable kids", and, "simple words", (saying that his cousins weren't as smart as him, yet were stronger in family power because of their relation to the aunt.

    That piano at end always gives me goosebumps. This song perfectly matches with the whole theme of the second season. At first when I listened to it, I just skipped to the start of the episode since I wasn’t bothered. Then when I eventually listened to it, I was pretty surprised by how well it came out. It sure isn’t as good as Unravel, but it’s pretty comparable. It’s just my opinion 😅

    In my opinion I think its better than unravel purely off its meaning and how much it means to the story this opening imo conveyed feelings and deepness that unravel isn't doing but this is just my opinion lol have a nice day!!!
