@gordanham:
Was really looking forward to this series, but after just watching the first two episodes I found it really unbearable. The manga being so popular though, I was hoping I would be able to just read summaries of the chapters and see if the series actually turned around, but I couldn't find any via wikipedia/wikia, so can anyone point any summaries out? That, or just tell me does the series actually prove grey at all? Or are all the characters really just horrible murders that if I want too see them all killed already I just shouldn't even bother?
Why the hell would you read wikia for that ? You might as well not even read the series if you can't even give it a try and read at least first 2 volumes .

@garonne:
its not JUST that. dont forget he's an avid reader who soaks up what he's read, its how he learns to fight… i.e. when he got captured by gourmet and fought the big buffoon.
so you add that, plus he's a one eyed ghoul, plus he has rize's kagune, plus (at the time) his kagune was supposed to have positives against jason's, plus he's been training, plus his reading, then you add all that up and put in 10 days or torture losing your appendages over and over and over and over again.... this explains him beating jason.... then he ate (some of) jason and that made him even more powerful.
Not to mention those two characters deaths which fueled his anger even more .
