Who you prefer to be the new OEK? PlotarmorTouka?


A Washuu like maybe Tsuneyoshi Washuu or someone from V would make sense.


Lol wtf?
If the king was the leader of some orgazination then yeah, it would make sense, but "One Eyed King" is clearly a symbolic title, so yeah, it being Kaneki is bretty gud.

Last 2 pages were freaking amazing. Anyone else thought that Kaneki looked like a dragon?


For all we know he might be transforming into something that is a true kakuja similar to etos but instead of owl shaped it could be dragon shaped. I thought it might be centipede again but those things coming out look like some sort of fins rather than legs.

Omg, so many feels in this chapter. So by one-eyed king, Eto could have been referring to Arima (because he only had one eye). Now that he killed Arima (technically, I mean he WAS able to keep up with him) that makes him the new hope for ghouls, and the One-Eyed King himself. Can't wait for next chapter. His reunion with Touka-chan ahhhhhhh. But Eto.... I'm super sad at her death... I can't believe it... and... is Banjou-san... dead???

Also, looks like the CCG is pretty much dead now. Washu family exposed, Hirako quit, what's going to become of the other investigators? What's Hirako going to do now?

Also, I'm contemplating hard whether I should take a break from this manga. I've binge-read this manga all the way up to 85 and that was just amazing. Not sure if I can deal with that whole "1 chapter per week" tease...


I have been dealing with it each week yes it is a pain but I love getting into discussions of the chapter when people are discussing it.

Centipedes don't have claws like that. Look at the top corner near the head. Devil like claw appears there. Also, the thing growing from his back look like mini wings.

Kaneki becoming the one eyed king. We all knew it but it's great to see him taking the throne.

That look of Kaneki at the end... is pretty damn appealing.

Please tell me Eto isn't dead. Killing her off at this stage is pretty pointless since Arima just died. But then again it won't be a shock since her goal has been achieved.

Holy shit epic. So everything was built up for this chapter. Eto and Arima's was working together all along for the sake of their masterplan, to create this hope (OEK) for the ghouls. Everything makes sense now. I'm glad Kaneki took the offer.

Only problem I had is Eto being offscreened. We didn't even get to see her die...

!!!

that was a little confusing to follow. kaneki being oek wasn't terribly surprising, but that execution was a+,

so arima was oek after eto then? will have to reread carefully sometime.


Actually, the "One-Eyed King" never existed (Hence we never see the true face of the "OEK". Just an old skeleton with a crown). Eto started that as a myth to make every ghoul AND human know that the One-Eyed King is the strongest and undefeated. So when the OEK finally comes to, he can be a symbol, a hope for ghouls and humans alike.

After her duel with Arima, he asks her the reason for doing what she is doing and she tells him that she wants to fuck up this world and start a new world.

So, since Arima is the strongest and the undefeated CCG reaper, Eto "made" him the OEK. In my opinion, Arima didn't even know that he is the OEK.

Meanwhile, Arima had his own reasons for training Kaneki because he has a very short time to live. 2 birds 1 stone.

Hence, Eto wished for Kaneki to kill the OEK and now that the OEK (Arima) is dead, the throne is empty. Whether Kaneki will sit on that throne or not, it's up to him. And, he certainly IS sitting on the throne.



Thanks for the explanation, this should be on top of post :D My mind was blown reading this chapter. Can't wait what the next arc brings us since Amon still hasn't appeared or the leader of the clowns.

Didn't Touka's kagune emit electrical sparks against Tsukiyama too? I remember seeing it in the anime.


Never watched the anime but nice catch.♣ Is the anime even canon? ♠
Rereading that fight- It looks like these faint white lines are the electric sparks. It's a lot more subtle :


That's definitely better depicted in the anime.
Aside from that, it's only been used as a last resort. It's something that will keep the Kirishimas relevant (inevitable training arc where they learn to control their lightning nature) if they want to assist the One-Eyed King. ♠

I wonder if that ability is special to Kirishimas, or if other Ukakus (Itori) can do this?♣




I think its all ukakus who are strong enough, seeing as yoshimura does it too

I was implying the claw dont look like centipede. If we were ever to get a one eyed king a dragon formed kakuja would be more suitable then a centipede.

Joker is suzaya, arima is jack, if there is a queen it could possibly be eto or maybe a character we have not met yet (or mutsuki pshycho side). but if its eto all the 3 apart from the king are dying by the looks of things.

Aura and Mougan making the Anteiku squad go rekt. :(
Touka is freaking strong since her last with Ayato !!! WOW!! <3 <3
Poor Ayato got burned by based MILF, literally!
I hope Yomo doesn't die after coming all this way. What would be the point of keeping him alive after Arima almost throat-slit him.

NO! Please Eto don't die! At least not by Furuta!!

and that page of Arima and Touka making a deal. OH MY GOD THAT WAS GOOSEBUMP JERKER!! *-*
So they were working together all this time! Eto is gonna fuck up this world using Aogiri Tree and then rebuild it using OEK. and as Arima is dead, it HAS TO BE KANEKI!!!! <3

That Hirako's "I quit" scene was funny though. Those two special classes are done for. :3

Yes that makes sense actually! and I doubt it will be Mutsuki because all the other characters (Joker, Jack and both Kings) have been introduced since part 1. She's probably a side-story just like Tsukiyama, Kirishimas, Houji, the QS squad and so on...

Arima and Eto might've fucked. I'm on it, she's the only chance he got . So they were basically King and Queen grooming their heir together for all this time.

Epic chapter tho I dont like how simple it's being explained. I need more of all the OEK business flashback. But holy shit, that Arima and Eto panels of them leading their respective army give me goosebumps. Jackrima in CCG outfits, my life is complete. So Arima did defeat Eto meaning Arima>Eto.

Manager TOUKAAAA, I am so proud of her. She's that strong now that she can stand against 2 special class with fucking bazooka quinque. And Banjou is a medic unit lol He even had his cross sign on his chin.

Aura can step on my face now, she's just drop dead gorgeous and badass and she got the damn special class booty. Hirako is the based bro, he's working for Arima not CCG, no wonder he give no shit about rank. Here guys that's why he's one of the most popular character in Japanese fandom. They foresaw this,

I think "One-Eyed King" is more figurative than what it seems. Eto calls him that because its the prerequisite for Kaneki to uphold the title. It seems like the story was made so Kaneki becomes the One-Eyed King which didn't exist beforehand.

Why I say mutsuki is because I feel she will have a fight with kaneki which will be similar to the fight with arima in part one. with kaneki beating her or something. She is also made out as a female version of kaneki with parellels to part one also when she is not mutsuki she is some entirely different force that we dont know the full power of. so her evil side being a one eyed queen could be possible and will be used to fight the king as the washuus and v will need someone to take on the king and mutsuki would be the perfect role.

it also can possibly be yasuhisa but thats a long shot itself since they are not built up. the only things to support them is similar abilities to Kaneki as a halve ghoul and the fact they are able to possibly kill juuzou the closest thing in the ccg to arima.

Thats pretty much the case because there was no one for the washuus and v to fear but something unstoppable they know nothing about. eto and arima cause chaos just to create a king who can reset the world they live in. Kaneki just came out as the king from that chaos by luck. It could be anyone but in the end it was Kaneki.

In the last chapters of the first manga arima already knew about kaneki by calling out his name during the fight while eto was the one who told shinohara about anteiku and its coffee with an awarness her dad and kaneki are related to it. with the evidence of arima letting her into the ward at that time it appears they planned the fight between Ken and Arima.

Not gonna say i'm surprised by this revelation but it was still pretty good.
Eto and Arima were working together, and see how they "create" Kaneki to be the OEK was pretty well done.
Plus, it looks like Eto is going to realy die maybe next week.

Great chapter as always ^^

Didn't really care about the rest of the part with Touka part because I know her plot armor was going to save her anyways


So much butthurt in one post. You know Arima has no plans of killing them and Eto, a SSS ghoul, was meant to save their asses. Their escape from the supposed danger situation is completely justified. Even after all this, you're still insisting on the plot armor? You are special one. Go look up the definition of plot armor.


All Eto did was stopping the splatting thing (ghoul disposer / whatever) from stopping their escape. Never mind they fought Arima and multiple Special Class investigators without actually losing any one of them.

Although it could be said Arima let them live because he cared about Kaneki, you really can't deny Ishida insists on letting them live because he still needs them for the plot, or because some of the fans care too much about them.

For all that, it's still 50/50 for me if Eto is actually dead or not. She probabsy is, but I really don't want her to be killed of screen like that. She's too interesting of a character.

Since arima is a half-human he is the one eyed human.. and eto is a half-ghoul so she is the one eyed owl.. both are the strongest in their respective group.. since arima defeated eto its obvious that he turns out to be the OEK (according to eto) even though he didn't knew.. (actually we dont know whether he knew or not)
They were working together on a path to find the one strongest half-human/half-ghoul to take up the mantle.. the one who would be a hope for both man and ghoul kind..

And it turns out to be our very own ken kaneki..
And i think aogiri used kanous experiments for this purpose,to find that one strong person.. and arima nurtured his pupil from the sunlit garden.. all this to find that one guy..
This turns out to be awsome..
Now what is that the clowns want? To kill the OEK or to support him.. getting excited as hell for the next chapter..

Of course Eto can be killed off, but a completely inconsequential character like Touka? Nah, let her get saved like a trillion times at the last second. And we all know Ayato's not dying either. There is hope that at least Yomo will finally go away. Good to see caring Banjou, though.

Teen Arima sparing Eto and actually somewhat agreeing with her goal was very cool to see. Damn, was he badass, definitely going to miss him. Still, Hirako is doing a pretty good job of replacing him so far, look forward to seeing more of him and Squad 0.

And what can I say about the last two pages... Centipede is now confirmed to be the King. I wonder what V's reaction to that will be when they catch wind of it, or the Clowns', who are the second obstacle remaining in the King's way.

Guess there's no hope for Aura and mmm-boy now that Ken's there, but I honestly don't wanna see them die. A CCG revolt would be much nicer than a slaughter. In that trail, I wouldn't mind going back to Rue Island to see how the assault on Aogiri concludes.

Not exactly sure how I feel about Ken being the King what with all the speculation that Arima was to pass the title onto him and turning out to be exactly that, plus Eto seemingly dying just because she has to, now that her human reciprocal did (by being offscreened, no less) but still - points for those last two pages.

Arima let them escape, also Eto once said to kaneki when he was stil blackhaired with glasses and interrogating Eto, she said he will lend a help on that "lot" which is the :re crew. So I can't say its plot armor, their safety is planned by eto and arima.

Great chapter! now I'm very hyped!

Now the new cafe would suit the One-Eyed King perfectly, well if Kaneki decided to return. since Eto and Arima had both worked on this, then I guess they really believe that Kaneki can bring about a better world between the ghouls and humans, let's see how that would work out... well if my presumptions were true at least.
