Tokyo Ghoul: Jack

📖 SYNOPSIS

Before he became the feared “Reaper” of the CCG, Kishou Arima was just a quiet and mysterious high school student — though far from ordinary. Tokyo Ghoul: Jack dives into Arima’s teenage years, long before he rose to legendary status as the most powerful ghoul investigator. Taishi Fura, once a promising baseball player, has fallen into delinquency after giving up the sport. His life takes a dark turn when he witnesses a brutal attack by a ghoul known as “Lantern,” who injures one of his old friends and kills another. Just when it seems like Fura is next, his seemingly normal classmate Arima appears — effortlessly forcing the ghoul to retreat. Fueled by anger and grief, Fura teams up with Arima, soon discovering that his quiet classmate is actually an undercover investigator for the CCG. The two begin patrolling the dangerous 13th Ward together, setting their sights on eliminating ghouls — especially Lantern. Their unlikely partnership not only showcases Arima’s terrifying skills but also reveals the early steps that led him down the path to becoming the CCG’s most ruthless weapon.
