Short answer

The complete box set is the cleanest physical purchase for the original 14-volume series; Tokyo Ghoul:re is a separate 16-volume sequel purchase.

PanelPick recommendation

Choose the original-series box set if you are committed to physical reading. Budget buyers should sample the official digital chapters before buying 14 volumes.
