What went so horribly wrong

Is it ironic or not

Wad it ever explained why Ghouls can only drink coffee?

Off the top of my head,I thought the sequel started off slow but logical with the author first establishing the MC's psyche and internal struggle between his human side and ghoul side. I liked the first introduction of the investigators and the way how the author jumped from CCG's pov to the main cast to flesh out the world. Kaneki finally accecpting his ghoul side (pic related) was one of the most intense and satisfying scenes I've read in manga and I was sure it peaked with this. Because usually what happens in majority of manga, that they would turn into powerlevel fantasy and the MC wrecking shit left and right, but here, Kaneki gets to form a small group of people to find out more about Kanou and the stuff that has happened to him. It was dynamic and he played a very active role through this, and it also had few comfy SoL moments in the second half. I also liked how the author wasn't afraid of letting his MC get beaten over and over again, and the ending is just the nail in the coffin with him getting completely curbstomed by Death himself. Overall I would say the prequel is pretty solid, but the fight choreo leaves much to be desired and there are some scenes that are pretty edgy.
Also, I thought it was pretty fascinating to see an artist improve his art in only a couple of months/years to such high levels like Sui Ishida managed to, which is fairly unusual considering the short amount of timeframe.

Go on, admit it, all of you are tsundere in regard to the series

I have very similar thoughts to you. The fight choreo really did frustrate me because I literally could not make out what was going on.

I remember thinking how hideous early OG was and honestly would've dropped if I wasn't interested in the story. To see him go from that to the gorgeous spreads in :re is really satisfying.
