Season chronology

The second season of the Tokyo Ghoul anime series, titled Tokyo Ghoul √A, is a direct sequel to the first season of the anime. The series is produced by Pierrot, and directed by Shuhei Morita.

The score is composed by Yutaka Yamada, who also produced the score for the first season. The opening theme for the anime is "Incompetence" (無能, Munou) by österreich,[3] and the ending theme is "The Seasons Die Out, One After Another" (季節は次々死んでいく, Kisetsu wa Tsugitsugi Shindeiku) by amazarashi.[4]
