A live-action film primarily based on the manga was released in Japan on July 29, 2017. An anime adaptation primarily based on the sequel manga Tokyo Ghoul:re began airing on April three, 2018, with the series being split into two seasons.

Tokyo Ghoul is set in an alternate reality where ghouls, cannibalistic 'monsters' who look specifically like normal folks but can only survive by eating human flesh, reside amongst the human population in secret, hiding their true nature in order to evade pursuit from the authorities. Like enhanced speed, senses, and regenerative potential, a typical ghoul is several times stronger than a normal human, has a skin resistant to ordinary piercing weapons and has at least one particular unique predatory organ known as a kagune (Japanese: 赫子), which it can manifest and use as a weapon during combat. Another distinctive trait of ghouls is that when they are excited or hungry, the color of their sclera in each eyes turns black and their irises red. This mutation is identified as kakugan (赫眼, "red eye").

A half-ghoul can either be born naturally as a ghoul and a human's offspring, or artificially developed by transplanting some ghoul organs into a human. In each situations, a half-ghoul is usually considerably stronger than a pure-blood ghoul. In the case of a half-ghoul, only 1 of the eyes undergoes the "red eye" transformation.

There is also the case of half-humans, hybrids of ghouls and humans that can feed like regular humans and lack a Kagune even though possessing enhanced skills, like elevated speed and reaction speed, but shortened lifespans.To hunt down the ghouls, many government-sponsored organizations such as the CCG were designed worldwide.
