On a different note, Kpopstarz has reported about the confirmation of the 3rd season of "Tokyo Ghoul" anime series. The producers have confirmed but as far as the story is concerned, it has not been disclosed yet. It has been reported earlier by When-Will.net that there's not enough material to complete the full season, given that the anime will make use of "Tokyo Ghoul: Re" story.
This has been the pressing concern of fans, whether season 3 story will stay true to the present manga. "The main cause of concern is that "Tokyo Ghoul: re" only has 43 chapters which might not be enough material to produce a whole season's worth of episodes."
Note that "Tokyo Ghoul" is considered as one of the few popular tv anime series in Japan. In fact, its incredible demand led to a sequel, "Tokyo Ghoul: Re," which has been serialized in the Weekly Young Jump magazine since October 2014.
