Lurking within the shadows of Tokyo, ghouls satisfy their hunger by feeding on humans once night falls. The Commission of Counter Ghoul (CCG) has been established in response to the constant attacks on citizens. However, ghouls disguise themselves as humans, living amongst the masses so that hunting prey will be easier. Ken, an unsuspecting university freshman, finds himself caught between humans and ghouls when he barely survives an encounter and discovers that he has turned into a half-ghoul. Unable to satisfy his intense craving for human meat through conventional means, Ken is taken in by friendly ghouls. Little does he know that he is about to find himself at the center of a war between his new comrades and the forces of the CCG.,- From myanimelist.net
