Tokyo Ghoul: Jack

A delinquent’s quest for vengeance collides with a secret ghoul‑hunter’s teenage origins.

Taishi Fura, once a promising baseball ace, now roams the halls of his high school as a petty thug. One night he stumbles upon a grisly showdown: a ghoul known as Lantern savagely maims his old teammate and slaughters another student. Before the carnage can spiral, a mysterious senior named Kishou Arima intervenes. Arima isn’t just a top‑ranked student—he’s a covert operative of the Commission of Counter Ghoul, tasked with hunting the very monsters that prey on humans. He forces Lantern to retreat, but the encounter ignites a burning vendetta in Fura. Driven by grief and fury, Fura teams up with the enigmatic Arima, diving headfirst into the shadowy underbelly of the 13th Ward. Together they hunt the ghoul underworld, tracking Lantern’s trail of blood while navigating the thin line between human and monster. The OVA peels back the layers of Arima’s legend, revealing his teenage years as a reluctant hero caught between schoolyard politics and the grim reality of ghoul attacks. It’s a compact, blood‑soaked prequel that blends high‑school drama with visceral horror, setting the stage for the larger Tokyo Ghoul saga.

This prequel OVA follows a teen delinquent teaming up with a prodigy investigator to hunt a ghoul that killed his friends. Expect intense, bloody action and body horror consistent with the main Tokyo Ghoul series, condensed into a single episode.
