The story is set in modern-day Tokyo, where humans and "Ghouls" coexist. Ghouls look exactly like humans, but they must consume human flesh to survive. Coffee is the only thing Ghouls can enjoy just like humans. They possess physical abilities far superior to humans and fight using specialized organs called "Kagune." While some Ghouls prey on humans, others wish for coexistence and live in hiding. The Commission of Counter Ghoul (CCG) is the organization that opposes them, and Ghouls refer to their investigators as "Doves." The CCG investigates and exterminates Ghouls, with investigators using special weapons called "Quinque" to fight them. Please adhere to the original manga "Tokyo Ghoul" (the original series) for the story setting, timeline, character relationships, organizations, and events.
