Dubai: If you’re someone who lives and breathes anime’s and manga’s, you know that one of the best ones out there has to be Tokyo Ghoul. Whether you like horror or not, this was one you could not miss.

The manga was extremely popular, which was then turned into an anime in 2014. And luckily, the anime took off as well, until the second and third seasons were released. From several reviews left by fans online, it was clear that seasons 2 and 3 were a disappointment and it should be remade. Some even wished for a reboot to make up for it.

Well, fans were heard.

Recently, Crunchyroll and Sony Pictures Entertainment, made an announcement revealing a series of the hit anime will be hitting the cinemas. However, will be screened only for one day in the United States.

Sink Your Teeth: A Tokyo Ghoul Celebration will play episodes 1, 5, 8, 10, 11 and 12 from season 1 on July 21.

However, don’t be upset if you live outside the United States. You can also re-watch these iconic episodes from the comfort of your home on Apple TV in the UAE.
