:o this is too good for a bonus chapter . It's nice to get change of pace for once after auction raid , and there's that book and mask gift too..nice !!!

Clown's boss that Uta talk about , could it be clowns that escape from cochlea during Aogiri raid ?At TG, Itori(Uta's pal,correct me if I'm mistaken her name) mention about clown that escape when she see the list of ghoul that escape from cochlea that she gt from Kaneki . She said something like , "interesting list , there's clown too "


Roma escaped from cochlea but I doubt she is the boss

Who knows maybe Roma is an SS ghoul. She was playing around and still rekt a bunch of CCG at the auction. And she seems capable of launching kagune anywhere, so....

Okay, everyone is so sure about that the book was a gift from Hide. It is a possibility, but there are other options (I actually like the theory about Hide being eaten or damn heavily injured by Kaneki in V14, but nevermind). Here's my take on it:
1. Kaneki already had a book signed for him. But heyyy, nobody knows what happened to his personal things when he was defeated. Someone, a friend maybe, might have just taken all his things including the book and kept it. And now sent this to him. Come on, surely there are more people than just Hide that know when is Kaneki's birthday.
2. I think Uta is a double agent. Maybe, just maybe, he somehow captured Hide and keeps him alive just to make Sasaki help him later on (you know, Sasaki is like "gonna protect everyone", and he would do everything to save Hide even if he doesn't remember him anymore) with some fighting or... you know.
NOTE: On the other had, Uta might killed Hide and take the book from him. It would be completely stupid, but he's the guy who loves chaos, after all.
3. Remember Touka visiting someone in the hospital? I guess it might be Hide. He could get injured in V14 by Kaneki, maybe he ate a part of him, like a limb or something. Maybe, just maybe, he is in such a bad condition that he must be connected to all those weird hospital machines all the time to keep him alive and well. So he could gave her the book and told her to give it to Sasaki. And yes, by that I say he cooperates with :RE to save his friend.

I'm not a conspiracy master, so these theories are pretty weak.


Oh now I realised the note on the mask says:
"Merry Chrismast, from Hysy"
"Hysy"? The hell? I don't remember that at all.

this chapter was a gift:
+family christmas
+suzuya asking maman for a trick or a treat
+mom!akira and dad!arima
+arima in general
+everyone goofing around
+maman giving out gifts
+maman receiving gifts:
~the mask from uta (xmas present)
(btw hysy is the name of uta's mask shop; he can't just sign it uta... and his ghoul alias is no face. imagine it signed like that lmao. also, i missed that mask more than i thought i would)
~the sen takatsuki book (b-day present)
(everything points to hide, which is actually making me suspicious of a red herring lol)

Although Kaneki had his own copy I think it was written in different kanji or something.

HySy is Uta's mask shop.

Also I am more inclined to Kimi was the one Touka visited at the hospital.


Anyways, I am surprised that people only realized that Arima was not a mere emotionless killing machine for him showing some emotion in this chapter. He had been always a really nice fellow if you guys follow closely his character even from the TG days. I mean, the whole Jack shot, during Mado's funeral(or something i dont really remember) and his meeting with Juuzou at the CCG promotion after party, he is shown to be a quite friendly and humble guy.


Also Urie did change post Auction arc, he actually listened to Mutsuki to help with the party and suprisingly seems to be less bitchy for having Kuroiwa joining them. I dont why people say he is indidfferent in this chapter. It's not like he can make 180 degree change, being all jumpy and kind like Sasaki in just that short time of period. It's not his character

Well, about the chapter, a quite refreshing chapter with happy atmosphere. I love how Ishida portrayed the characterization and interrelationship among CCG folks. Saiko is such a cutie pie. Lmao at her and Kuramoto scene. They will make a great combo:D and nice to see Sasaki in such happy mode. He reallu deserves all the good time in the world after what happened at the auction.

Alsoooo finally we get :re POV! Touka is fucking gorgeous as always and Nishiki is with them. i just love Nishiki/Touka relationship. Some things just never changed. And Yomoooooooo, where is Rizeeeeee?


About Uta idk what to say about him, I will just accept whatever Ishida had planned for him lol

Also no mention of Hinami worries me a bit, I hope she actually got saved by Eto or something before they can take her into CCG.

"Hysy"? The hell? I don't remember that at all.



1) The book that was signed by Sen for Kaneki, didn't say Kaneki. Kaneki gave another name, different kanjis, the translators, translated it as Kanaki. Later comes Hide who says "I am Ken Kaneki", Hide was the one who gave the complete name and spelling
2) For that to happen, Hide had to have spilled the beans of Kaneki's bday to Uta, so I doubt it. I think Hide would have preferred to die than give any info about Kaneki, plus this is Hide, a person who gave the slip up to a ghoul, put a tracer on another ghoul, and infiltrated the CCG
3) If he is so badly injured, connected to machines, how is he going to communicate with Touka?

and the rest, well just read the post above.

Great chapter. Urie is not being as much of a jerk as he was before. He listened to Mustsuki and went out to buy stuff. Arima is not a cold-hearted human but he actually shows emotions. Suzuya is great as always. Great interaction between Shirazu and Saiko XD. Also..Sasaki/Kaneki was thinking about Touka. I wonder when Floppy is gonna show up. I think the book was sent by Hide...It has to be. What happened to Hinami?? I hope she isn't in Cochlea but that is where she probably is! I don't like that!!. The mask was probably sent by Uta. Also..Umbrella? How? Ghouls can't get hurt by an Umbrella, right?..I'm pretty sure of that..so how did Arima do whatever he did?. Sasaki bed head is the best bed head ever.

10/5 great chapter, even though it wasn't an arc or sth. Kaneki's birthday was great after all C:

What do you think Shironeki is holding on the first page?

Aaaaaaand, it was cute to see, that Yomo still treat Uta like his best friend. And we know now, that it's not Uta who leads the Clowns (or he is just lying).
Also, that was great that HYSY sent to Sasaki his first mask as a bithday present. Please, Uta, be good T_T


Looks like Shironeki is holding a bird cage to me. It's shaped like one and from personal experience putting a cloth over one to block out light tends to make any birds inside go to sleep.

Nice to see Uta likes Kaneki. He just seems to be an enemy because a member of the group he belonged to is the reason Kaneki became a ghoul and had all those events happen to him as a result. So far he hasn't personally done anything to kaneki other than withholding information and letting kaneki find things out on his own. Most malevolent thing he has done so far is just not risking his life to help Kaneki save Anteiku and displaying a lack of remorse for a possible dead Kaneki in Tokyo Ghoul.

I wonder if the clowns even have a leader. Seems to me that the group is just a gathering of troublemakers who tell each other what they have been up to and invite other members to come along with them when they are planning something fun.

Maybe Arima did use the umbrella to attack the ghoul but I doubt he even injured or killed it. He said Houji was there too so the Houji was likely the one who delivered the finishing blow.

Ghouls can be easily injured in the eye, Yamori used a standard needle in the eye of Kaneki and Kaneki tried to stick his finger in the eye of Sachi.

ghouls eyes are their weakness, because people forget?

Waaaaait a moment.

1) On Pg.17, who is Ken thinking about in regards to "I wonder what that person is doing today"? People either think it's Nishiki or Touka.

It's Touka since the line he wondered if 'the person' is on date( it's common in Japan for the couple to spend Cristmas together) and the next scene immediately skipped to re. Idk but people have been saying that Haise also invited her to his Christmas party.

Very nice chapter. Seriously, Ishida, keeping it so mellow for most of the chapter and suddenly mindfucking us completely in the end. Nice.

That Uta... if he was a question mark before, now I don't even know what to think. He's apparently working with Anteiku, is not the ''boss'' of the clowns, there some sort of plan involving Kaneki's resurrection in motion, yet who's to say Uta isn't just fooling Anteiku like before? Or is he one of those martyr characters that was good the entire time and was just keeping the Clowns on a leash? Seriously, I don't get this guy at all, probably one of the most mysterious characters I've ever come across.

And the book? It's largely theorized it was Hide, which would be pretty cool if it was true, though then the obvious questions arise - he's alive?; how did he survive?; how did he know about Haise and Kaneki?; why does he even want Eyepatch to return? Eto could have truly sent the book as well, since she's also another frivolous character - she could want him to cause chaos in the CCG, want him to just return to being a ghoul for her amusement, want him to suffer, etc.

Sigh... so many questions. This had better be longer than the original TG.

4.5/5

P.S: I would pay to see Arima one-panel Eto with an umbrella.

It will be interesting to see Sasaki potentially learn more about who he is, especially after receiving the mask and book......

Why is everyone doubting Uta? When and where has it been said that he betrayed Anteiku/Kaneki or planned some bad stuff?Was that the last picture of him with a piece of human meat? I haven't really doubted him one bit.
Uta's calmed down a lot since his teenage years, he said it himself that he didn't want to be the boss back then but someone had to, and he only wanted to open a mask shop.
I'm sure he's with the clowns because he wants to know what's going on there. I personally think that he's the person that treasures his bonds with Reinji, Touka, Kaneki and others more than being a part of some sleazy group.
There's an unofficial war between ghouls and humans right now after so many loses at the end of the first manga. Even Nishiki had to break up with his girlfriend because it wasn't safef anymore. I think everything's leading to one more big showdown.
I think he might want to bring Kaneki back though, and here I'm not sure what he might do.
