A live-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 exactly where ghouls, cannibalistic 'monsters' who appear precisely like standard individuals but can only survive by consuming human flesh, live among the human population in secret, hiding their accurate nature in order to evade pursuit from the authorities. Like enhanced speed, senses, and regenerative capability, a standard ghoul is several instances stronger than a normal human, has a skin resistant to ordinary piercing weapons and has at least one unique predatory organ known as a kagune (Japanese: 赫子), which it can manifest and use as a weapon throughout combat. Another distinctive trait of ghouls is that when they are excited or hungry, the colour of their sclera in each eyes turns black and their irises red. This mutation is known as kakugan (赫眼, "red eye").

A half-ghoul can either be born naturally as a ghoul and a human's offspring, or artificially produced by transplanting some ghoul organs into a human. In each cases, a half-ghoul is typically a lot stronger than a pure-blood ghoul. In the case of a half-ghoul, only a single 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 standard humans and lack a Kagune while possessing enhanced abilities, like increased speed and reaction speed, but shortened lifespans.To hunt down the ghouls, many government-sponsored organizations such as the CCG were designed worldwide.
