A reside-action film based on the manga was released in Japan on July 29, 2017. An anime adaptation 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 typical men and women but can only survive by eating human flesh, reside among the human population in secret, hiding their true nature in order to evade pursuit from the authorities. Such as enhanced speed, senses, and regenerative ability, a normal ghoul is numerous occasions stronger than a typical human, has a skin resistant to ordinary piercing weapons and has at least a single unique predatory organ named a kagune (Japanese: 赫子), which it can manifest and use as a weapon in the course of combat. Another distinctive trait of ghouls is that when they are excited or hungry, the color of their sclera in both eyes turns black and their irises red. This mutation is recognized as kakugan (赫眼, "red eye").

A half-ghoul can either be born naturally as a ghoul and a human's offspring, or artificially designed by transplanting some ghoul organs into a human. In both circumstances, a half-ghoul is usually significantly 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 typical humans and lack a Kagune whilst possessing enhanced abilities, like elevated speed and reaction speed, but shortened lifespans.To hunt down the ghouls, many government-sponsored organizations such as the CCG were created worldwide.
