Former baseball player turned delinquent Taishi Fura accidentally witnesses the man-eating "ghoul" known as Lantern injuring his old friend and murdering another. Before the situation gets any worse, Fura's classmate Kishou Arima arrives―as he is actually an undercover investigator for the Commission of Counter Ghoul (CCG)―and forces the ghoul to flee.
Seeking revenge for his friends, Fura joins forces with Arima to hunt down ghouls in the 13th Ward—ultimately aiming to bring down Lantern.
Tokyo Ghoul: "Jack" unveils snippets of life in the past for the CCG's fearsome "Reaper," Arima, giving insight into how he spent his high school days.

Where it came from
Tokyo Ghoul: [JACK] was released in 2015 as a two-part original video animation based on the spin-off manga written and illustrated by Sui Ishida. The story functions as a prequel to the main series, exploring the origin of the character Kisho Arima and his first encounter with the ghoul known as Lantern, set in Tokyo's 13th Ward during his high school years.
Produced by Studio Pierrot, the animation was directed by Soichi Shimomura with a focus on capturing the melancholic, gritty tone Ishida established in his original work. While the aesthetic retains the dark, psychological edge of the broader franchise, it stands apart for its more grounded, character-focused narrative, and it was generally received by fans as a faithful and essential expansion of the Tokyo Ghoul lore.
