-Arima flashback, inb4 death flag. Arima 'looking' down on Kaneki, trying to provoke him.
Kaneki's mental state is deteorating. He remembers the 'happy' times, he was asking around about Arima, Hairu was adorable, Hirako's reaction was funny. Damn, he really cares about Arima.

-Arima is getting serious, Kaneki trying to reattach his legs. Arima is savage af, taking away his legs. Did he literally count all the times he could've killed him? Arima is now mindfucking Kaneki. Damn, Arima is really portrayed evil in this chapter. Done with preaching, ready for killing. Kaneki made up his mind, apparently. He'll now fight with the intent to kill, he broke IXA with one strike. Someone (Furuta, Take??) dropped him a brand new weapon. It's safe to say that the weapon is made from Yoshimura, Arima fought him back in the day and cut his arms off. Kaneki's new half kakuja develops, it looks absolutely sick, like something from a Lovecraftian horror. Don't know how much help will those cork-screw legs be, but hey, he can now compete in the Paralympics. It's spouting random shit thanks to the Eto upgrade.

-Eto in the dark, seems to have enjoyed the meal. Banjou and Hina reunite.
'Oy vey, let's just leave him fight alone and see what happens.'
The Illuminati have come. Furuta is well and alive as expected. Somebody got rekt in that machine, hopefully Hina/Banjou will make it out alive.

Anyway, rather splendid chapter, sure as hell didn't expect that cool of a half kakuja, I expected a.....snake *cough* Chibi *cough*

No chapter next week. ;-;

IXA eviscerated with a single attack. Arima stating that he could've negged Ken 645 times, pulling out an SSS-quinque, and getting serious himself? Yes, please. It is interesting how he refused to do it, though. The biggest reward for me would be finally getting a glimpse of what Arima is about, except being a god. The new Kakuja doesn't look that good, imo.

Last page gave me probably false hope that everyone is dead. Two weeks to find out, tsk.

Kaneki's Kakuja looks pretty horrific. I knew he wasn't giving it his all. Taking out IXA just in one shot. He's really a beast now. Looking forward to seeing where this fight goes.

Hey everyone, new here, though I've posted from time on mangafox's forum. For some reason I can't post there any more, even with my IP addressed changed; so I can still read, but it never lets me post. In any case, I found the reactions there to always be a bit...underwhelming, so I'm trying out a new forum.

My reaction is very mixed. Not least because I'm so curious who Arima is with in that Flashback. Is it Chairman Washuu or Director Washuu or someone else? I see something off in Arima's actions just like I did at the end of Tokyo Ghoul. At the end of TG, I pointed out that Arima was obviously not trying to kill Kaneki, and he actually talked to him. Again, Arima is stopping, and taking time to talk to Kaneki (now Haise) , which is the exact opposite of what, in a previous chapter, Arima told him to do with opponents. What is Arima doing? He's never been shown to pass up a kill shot, and why would he pass up 645 of them? Why would he say "you're incorrigible." Why would he press Haise so hard on "what is your choice" or provoke him with the consequences of his own failure? Why would he say "The time I spent on your is wasted."

It seems to me Arima is trying to do something. He's always seen something in Haise that's not been lived up to. The hints are all through out, but we still don't have any clue just what Arima is trying to do. But it's obvious he's not treating Haise like other opponents, and the fact that he seems disappointed in how well Haise is fighting just drives that home to me. He held the point of Ixa right over Haise's eye and flat up asked him what he was going to do. Is it all just Arima's apathetic curiosity with this specimen, or is there something deeper driving it? I keep feeling like Arima as a character is not going to be such a one-dimensional, reflexive killer.

Then there is Eto. She seems to be planning something. None of her actions have made sense, and it feels weird she let herself be captured so easily, and now seems to be waiting for something to happen below (I can't help but think she's waiting to break out and wreak havoc herself). Ugh. So much antipication.

I feel like this is the longest Arima has spoken in all of Tokyo Ghoul. He's breaking his own rules of not showing mercy to Ghouls. On the one hand, it feels like Arima was trying to raise an investigator on his level. On the other, it feels like he knew Kaneki would eventually betray the CCG and was raising a proper challenge.

I get the impression his relationship with Kaneki isn't quite as simple as it's being made out to be. I'm wondering whether the familial relations that Kaneki feels is actually mutual. THAT would be a goddamn amazing twist. Particularly tragic considering if it can only end in death, not only is the first human Kaneki will kill the most powerful but also his "father".

Great chapter. The showdown between Arima and Kaneki doesn't disappoint, as expected of Ishida. He always makes excellent fight scenes and they really are one of the best things in TG for me. I'm also glad he used the giant kagune-claw that Kaneki's proto-design had, lobster>snake.

I'd guess that Eto's meal had way too much pepper on it, but the based madwoman still ate it.

When does this man get the rest he needs?

How does Eto know that Kaneki is doing well?

Sleigh2Bells said:
I have a theory about that, if anyone of you watched Harry Potter surely know the relationship between Harry and Voldemort, if you don't know I'll explain it below.

Basically, Voldemort was somehow linked with Harry's mind, he could feel his thoughts and reading his mind (not completely thò), that said, I think there could be a similar situation with Eto and Ken and the Kagune Kaneki "inherited" could be the "link" between them.


Dec 20, 2015 2:09 PM

That would also explain why Eto let herself be captured, she knew what Kaneki would have done during this Arc, am I human?

Haise is gone since chapter 53

Actually (Unless what I read was wrongly translated,and even then it has to have something to do with it) at some point in the chapter (I believe the third of the chapter,although I may be wrong) Haise/Kaneki thinks "Arima doesn't see me. What he sees is Kaneki" which makes me think that he still doesn't think of himself as Kaneki. (I apologize if I am wrong)

I think that part that you mentioned where arima doesn't see him then on the next panel is shows Arima looking over the dead bodies of Touka Ayato and Yomo. Is what Arima sees. Kaneki sees that Arima is already focused on killking them once he finishes Kaneki off. Which is why Kaneki said Arima doesn't see him...

Well,we'll have to wait until next chapter to find out for sure,although your response seems pretty reasonable (although I believe you misunderstood it. "Arima doesn't see me. What he sees is Kaneki" seems as if he is talking about Arima not seeing Haise,but seeing Kaneki. But,this may be wrong as nothing is official yet)

Might be just me, but I think there's a slight reference to The Little Prince and how it fits the One-Eyed King thing. So, there's a line in the novella that goes like this:

“It is the time you have wasted for your rose that makes your rose so important.”

During their fight, Arima says "The time I spent on you went to waste."

I think this may give a bit of a hint why he doesn't outright kill Kaneki, even if he had hundreds of chances to do so already. He's grown affectionate of him. Even more interesting is that the book I referenced is called The Little Prince. Kaneki's an adopted son of sorts, if you could say that, of Arima's. If Arima indeed is the One-Eyed King, what would that make Kaneki? A prince, perhaps?

tl;dr: I feel like both Kaneki / Haise and Arima care about each other, that Arima is likely the OEG and Kaneki will take his place. Also, something about literary references.

Now that you mention it, in the unused drafts for Root A episode 12 it was revealed that Kaneki played the role of a prince during his elementary school play.
