'Tokyo Ghoul' season 3 renewal, release date: Touka's story to be featured if renewed

Fans continue to wait for the announcement of "Tokyo Ghoul" season 3, even if it's been over a year since the previous season aired. There are those who are hopeful that season 3 will be released soon.
According to Christian Times, "Tokyo Ghoul" season 3 is happening and that the animated series will focus more on a new main character. The publication noted that season 3 will concentrate more on the story of Touka.
It was reported that fans will follow Touka's life in college when the series returns. The character is said to be looking for the best university to study in but she might find it challenging to do so.
There are also rumors pointing to Ken Kaneki's story. It is said that Ken will now take on the role of a ghoul investigator following his abduction orchestrated by a terrorist group.
While this report is rather optimistic about a new season of "Tokyo Ghoul," the same thing cannot be said of the report from GamenGuide. According to the news outlet, season 2 may have been the last of the series and a renewal might not be in the cards. It also mentioned that fans shouldn't have to wait for the return of the series because it won't be making a comeback.
Meanwhile, a separate report mentioned that the series was just delayed and not totally canceled. The reason for this alleged delay is the live-action adaptation of "Tokyo Ghoul." The series' director and producers are reportedly busy working with the feature film that plans for the anime series have been put to the sidelines.
At this point, it seems that the development for "Tokyo Ghoul" season 3 can be confusing, with reports saying that it had been canceled or only delayed indefinitely. Studio Perriot has been mum the whole time so fans should just wait for more updates.
