There's a big possibility that "Tokyo Ghoul" Season 3 might not even air this 2017, considering that there's still no official update about the anime series after it was delayed. The hit manga's live-action movie adaptation seems to be one of the main reasons for the delay.

According to a report from Celebeat, the producers wanted to make season 3 even better after manga fans have commented that they didn't like season 2 of the anime series, particularly some of its episodes. Some of the main negative comments of the fans were the lack of character development in the anime and the lack of fresh ideas.

The report said that the lack of staff had been the primary reason for this series' setbacks. Sources have noted that the script writer for the anime series and the live-action movie adaptation is one and the same.

And this has likely caused the producers to run out of ideas in building up the characters. This is actually a shame, considering the producers have done well in designing the characters. They just need to be able to relate them well to the script that they created.

Since the producers of "Tokyo Ghoul" Season 3 have been tight-lipped when it comes to details about the anime series, fans have had to rely mostly on teasers and spoilers. As for when people can expect the anime series to air, OppTrends reports that no other update has been released, save for the information coming from Viz Media that they are delaying the anime.

This lack of update or information has increased speculations that "Tokyo Ghoul" Season 3 will not be airing until 2018. Whether or not that is true remains to be seen, as the supposed March 2017 target air date has already come and go.

For now, fans re hoping for a Spring 2017 release. But with recent reports about production delays, the date is highly unlikely. Check out the best fight scenes from "Tokyo Ghoul" in the video below.
