In his new mangaChoujin X , mangaka Sui Ishida is give a more mythologic calibre to an ability he barely paid tending to inTokyo Ghoul
Although his ghoul always managed to get increasingly more powerful after every fight they hold up , Ishida never really explained the phenomenon besides what was obviously implied until a minuscule manner into the twisting - off seriesTokyo Ghoul : re . In chapter 37 , the Commission of Counter Ghoul ( CCG ) learns after examining an ten - Ray of Ken Kaneki ’s body that ghouls get strong the more they ’re hurt through a process known as supercompensation . Now , this important ability returns in Ishida ’s new serial , Choujin X.

Choujin XBrings BackTokyo Ghoul’sSupercompensation
InChoujin X , Ishida present a similar type of phenomenon sleep with as Raise much earlier . As early as chapter 13 , choujins had been squall out the name in battle and somehow got strong . But he finally excuse 10 chapter later what it actually meant by revealing that the nigher a choujin do to death and enacts Raise , the more choujin - like they become while getting healed in the mental process . This , in turn , would ensue inthe choujin get more mogul . Much later in the manga , Ishida lucubrate his conception further by enunciate that triggering Raise too many time can result in the choujin enter a berserk state .
HowChoujin X’sRaise Differs fromTokyo Ghoul’sSupercompensation
Besides not having to shout out out a name like in Choujin X , why ghoul actually get strong after getting hurt is much different from how choujins do . Every time a ghoul sustains harm , they form more vein - like tubes in their bodies which carry the necessary cells that give the ghouls their power from a sac - like Hammond organ that stack away them to their specialised predatory kagune . The more of these cells that a kagune gather , the more a ghoul ’s strong-arm capabilities better .
In contrast , Choujin X ’s description of Raiseis much more poetic than the more science - based supercompensation mental process inToyo Ghoul . Besides choujin becoming more monstrous each sentence they reenact the power , the storyteller refers to it as " faker - death " that " fuses creation and destruction . " And when later describing its berserker Department of State , Ishida go into more point by explaining how , for some , it was a religious experience or euphoria while also using sinister word form such as " staring into the abyss . "
There really is n’t an representative of this eccentric of flowery language when readers first learn about supercompensation inTokyo Ghoul . In fact , one of the less skill - based description of the phenomenon occur when one of the CCG members who ’d had one of the weaponize interlingual rendition of a ghoul ’s kagune implant into them see the sensation when judiciary - pressing , saying how he could experience the ghoul cells enlace with his muscle fibers . Although similar , it ’s obvious that Ishida is exploring a intimate concept in a wholly different way . This is just one of manyinstances inChoujin Xwhere Ishida has borrowed from his earlier and more popular series and take it in another direction . Hopefully , connection such as these will grantChoujin Xnew reader so those who enjoyedTokyo Ghoulcan now go into his new manga without having to worry that it ’s a complete 180 from what they ’re used to but still get something that ’s precisely the same .
