僕らが産まれたとき、

たくさん血が出て、泣き叫び、両の目は閉じられていた

I have no regrets

Coming to cinemas near you this Friday.

(MUCH THANKS TO @rozemaryblaze WHO HELPED ME EDIT THIS.)

Your eyes are the eyes of a dead man. The dead cannot stop me.

Arima Kishou requested by @kishou​.

he doesn't know it but I already have the papers ready for him to adopt me (those messages are from several months ago, possibly 1 or 2 months)

So I’m sure we all know that Kishou Arima is a half human. Born form yk a ghoul and human. But I was thinking, if Arima was more leaning to the ghoul side and had a Kagune what type of Kagune would he have?

I believe the Arima would have a Rinkaku. Known for being swift and flexible (though also frail and easily to destroy). A Rinkaku would be able to keep up with the speed that Kishou fights with. As he’s constantly maneuvering and dodge swiftly so he would have a kagune that matches that speed.

Yeah, so that’s just what I believe. Comment if you have a difference in opinion.

Comment if you want to think about what other characters kagune types would be if they were a ghoul.

Disqualified as a human being - Furuta Nimura and Dazai Osamu’s Novel “No Longer Human”

The novel “No Longer Human” by Osamu Dazai is frequently referenced within the Tokyo Ghoul manga. Its story revolves around Ouba Yozo, a young man who is unable to show his true face to other people. Instead he hides himself behind a facade of hollow jocularity. During the course of the narrative he slips more and more into drug abuse and alienation towards his surroundings. The story is presented in two layers. The first layer, the prolog and the epilog, are written in the point of view of a narrator dealing with the memoirs of Ouba Yozo. These memoiris are the second layer, written from the ego-perspective of Yozo.

Within TG the author Dazai is mostly associated with Kaneki Ken. For example, during her autograph session Eto notes towards Kaneki, that “Kanagi” is the birthplace of Dazai. The imaginary scene between Kaneki and Hide during the final fight versus Arima contains a reference to Dazai as well.

But Kaneki is not the only character who can be related to Dazai and the novel “No Longer Human”.

Kaneki’s antagonist and foil Furuta Nimura bears resemblance to the novel’s main character and themes.  

How Furuta relates and parallels towards the protagonist of to the novel “No Longer Human” shall be explored in the following.  

Note that the following analysis contains sensitive themes as sexual abuse, child abuse and suicide/suicidal thoughts.  

The first resemblance between Furuta and Yozo is the most striking: Playing the act of a clown in order to hide one’s true nature.

Over the course of the book, Yozo frequently describes how the puts on a clownish act. He deliberately embraces this role. Making people laugh is his way to cope with human interaction. He, who has no idea what it means to be human or how to act human and is so crippling afraid of human interaction, finds refugee in playing a joke. By this he is able to elicit a positive reaction from humans (laughter and joy – some form of appreciation) while being able to wear a mask and to keep his true nature by himself. His relationships rely on this buffoonery because of this his ties to other humans are very shallow in nature. He is walking on tightrope of fake, hollow closeness and unbridgeable distance all his life. But this distance is all what Yozo wants since close human contact scares him. The mere thought of upsetting other people leaves him in great fear and the wish to dissolve his own identity.

 “As long as I can make them laugh, it doesn’t matter how, I’ll be alright. If I succeed in that, the human beings probably won’t mind it too much if I remain outside their lives. The one thing I must avoid is becoming offensive in their eyes: I shall be nothing, the wind, the sky.”

-              Osamu Dazai, No Longer Human

 Furuta relies on similar tactics. He too, embraces the role of a clown in order to hide his true nature. He even is part of a group calling themselves “Clowns” and is wearing a literal clown’s mask at some occasions. But even outside is role in the organization he frequently plays as a clown. For example he puts on a very goofy attire to explain his “real” goal to Eto. Or remember his first official entrance as a chairman, wearing his legendary party glasses. These acts are merely distractions. Some of the acts seem almost grotesque like wearing the party glasses for one moment and announcing extinction of the ghouls in the next moment. He hides his true feelings and motives behind his erratic mask. At the first glance this seems to be a merely tactical move. People tent to underestimate him because of his clownish act. When Eto attacked him, he put on a whiny façade, talking about friend’s requests, running away in a silly way and he even dubs his sprint “Nimudash”. His ludicrous attire lures Eto into not taking him seriously as an opponent. Therefore she is left surprised, as Furuta suddenly reveals his true colors and his half-ghoul-identity. When it came to his first confrontation with Kaneki, shortly after the foundation of Goat and Furuta’s taking over of the CCG, Furuta continued the act of a clown. He stylized himself as obsessed by Rize and presenting his plan in a -overdramatic, screenplay-like fashion. This kind of exaggeration lets Furuta seem as a madman. Chaotic, yes. Disturbed, yes. Thinking clearly enough to able to forge a realistic plan and lead a powerful, complex organization? Um, no. And this is what Kaneki shall think.  And Kaneki falls for it and thinks it’s a good decision to let Furuta run the CCG because he doesn’t take him seriously. This allows Furuta to act freely without having to fear Goat’s interference. Both, Furuta and Yozo, act so “wacky” that no one takes them seriously even if they actually say the truth. When Yozo confesses everything bad he had done to his future wife Yoshiko, she doesn’t believe him and takes his words as a joke. His cry for help is laughed away like that. He showed her his true face and she doesn’t believe it. But instead of falling into despair because of that, Yozo is delighted by Yoshiko’s disbelief. He is happy about her faith in him, how strongly she believes him to be a good person, even if he knows this is not the case. Being near her, he has the opportunity to pretend to be a good person and can ensure his mask. No matter what he did, Yoshiko “accepted” it under the assumption of a joke. Even though it is no real acceptation, since at the same time, his true face is not accepted, treated as a joke. But because it shows Yoshiko’s strong faith in him, Yozo is more than fine with that and continues pretending. In conclusion both, Yozo and Furuta, taking advantage of the fact that they are not believed even when they are showing their true face. Furuta in not to be worked against, Yozo in being accepted by Yoshiko. Both character’s darkest sides are ignored out of convenience. The people surrounding them don’t want to be confronted with this darkness and ignore it blissfully - with dangerous consequenzes. Furuta’s distructive plan works out with no obstacle. Yozo falls deeper into despair and addiction without getting any help.   

Towards his colleges Furuta wears the mask of a meek, weak-willed individual. Furuta is not seen fit for leading the organization and is thought to be incompetent. Ui supports Furuta and tells him to have more confidence – in this moment Ui seems to be the more self-assured of both of them, having the upper hand. The narrative suggests that he is trying to use Furuta for his own goals. But as soon Furuta shows his true face, the tables turn immediately. It’s interesting how the situation reversed itself by Furuta dropping his mask. Furuta is the one who has the upper hand, exploits Ui and breaks him at his most vulnerable points. Instead of building him up like Ui told Furuta to have more confidence, Furuta totally destroys Ui’s morality. In the end Furuta uses Ui for his own goals. This meek act of Furuta is also important because no one would suspect such a shy person to commit the crime of killing Tsuneyoshi or to scheme a plan to take over the CCG. But Furuta’s clownish act to not just serve as a mere tactic to accomplish is plans. It is also to hide his true feelings from others and keeps others away from his true self. His hatred against the Washuu (Eto mentioning his father is one of the times his mask breaks and Furuta loses it completely, screaming at her, telling her to die.) and the world itself. His emptiness – he wanted literally everything and gained nothing in the end - and the crushing desire to be loved, to have a normal family and to live a normal life. These are aspects of the personality the mask hides. Furuta himself is unable to bind to people in a healthy way. When he does connect to others, he does it through a clownish façade or through abuse (like he held Rize captive) and emotional manipulation (like he did with Ui when he dropped his meek façade in front of him and promised him reviving Hairu). For him, people are merely tools to accomplish is plan (while Yozo as well sees himself as a leech or a parasite). Beside this plan there is nothing to Furuta anymore. In the end he just wanted to be loved, but as given up on it long before. He found no positive way to connect with humans. In the end he is just as empty as Yozo is.

But this clownish façade is not the only similarity they bear. They both were raised in a similar upbringing. Yozo is the son of an influential politician. As the chairman of the CCG Tsuneyoshi holds a great political influence and is a very powerful member of society if not the establisher of the society in the aspect of Ghoul-treatment. Yozo lived together with his parents, the domestic staff and ten siblings in the residence of his family – they are a big family. Furuta too was raised together with many, many siblings in the Sunlit Garden.

Furuta is described to like to play with the girls and flowers and Yozo as well states that he played more with the girls than with his brothers. That may hint their delicate, sensitive personality.

Yozo describes himself to be utterly terrified of his father. The father was the family patriarch and it is strongly hinted how oppressive and threatening he was for Yozo. One scene describes how the father asking his children what presents they want him to bring before he leaves to a trip. Yozo is uneasy, feeling that nothing could make him happy but at the same time he doesn’t dare to disappoint his father in wanting nothing.

“Whenever I was asked what I wanted my first impulse was to answer "Nothing." The thought went through my mind that it didn't make any difference, that nothing was going to make me happy.”

-              Osamu Dazai, No Longer Human

(These words contrast Furuta’s longing for “everything” in his final fight with Kaneki)

 After Yozo just stalls the answer, his brother suggests the father to buy a book for Yozo. The father begins to tell Yozo about lion masks, which can be bought in the city and closes with “but you don’t want any, don’t you?”. In the end the father writes down to buy a book for Yozo in his notebook. But Yozo is so terrified to disappoint his father in not wanting a lion mask the father intended to give him that he grabs the notebook and changes the “book” to “lion mask” in the dead of night. This shows what impact Yozo’s father had on him. At the end of the book one of the characters even states, that everything wrong with him would be the fault of his father. The same conclusion can be drawn when it comes to Furuta, who was neglected and oppressed by Tsuneyoshi. After the news of the death of his father (who Yozo calls “shadow of all my fears”) arrived to Yozo, he feels apathic over the loss. Even though he is surprised that he doesn’t suffer of it, since most of his suffering stemmed from his father. Why not in this moment? Furuta is similar unconcerned over the death of his father. He even arranged it and presumably killed him himself. Even Uta questions him, whether he can unite the act of killing his father with his morality. Furuta stays indifferent about his death, showing how less he cared for him after Tsuneyoshis neglection.    

There is also another parallel in the upbringing of both characters: Sexual violence.

Yozo describes to have been sexual abused by the domestic staff as a child. He never reported it thinking it would be useless and the fear of nobody believing him, being argued in silence or somebody making excuses.  

While Furuta has not experienced sexual abuse himself, he grew up in the Sunlit Garden. A horrible environment where sexual abuse and rape were omnipresent. Even at young age Furuta was precisely aware of what was happening there: As a young boy, he helped Rize to escape because he didn’t want her to be raped. Shockingly even at this young age Furuta was aware what rape is, showing how omnipresent the abuse was within the Garden…  

Beside of saving Rize there was presumably nothing Furuta could do about the situation in the Sunlit Garden. Even if he had had the opportunity to report it, he presumably would have been silenced by V or his father.

Both of them, Yozo and Furuta, were trapped in an environment of sexual abuse, unable to escape.

In one point of their life Yozou and Furuta get abandoned and disowned by their respective fathers.

Yozo mets the woman Tsuneko and was able to connect with her through their shared sadness and loneliness (in contrast to that he is unable to remember her name, showing how careless he may be about her in the end, even though he states he liked her.) They commit double suicide by jumping off a cliff. Tsuneko dies while Yozo survives. His father abandons him after the suicide attempt out of shame. The only care and support Yozo receives from his family is the money sent by his brothers without the knowledge of the father.  

It is strongly hinted, that his role in the escape of Rize was the course of Furutas neglection by his father. The flashbacks of chapter 175-176 show Furuta and Tsuneyoshi in a close relationship. Tsuneyoshi even had high hopes in Furuta and it was said he adored him. But in the present Furuta was showed aside. While the other known children of the Sunlit Garden played major, glorified roles within the CCG (Arima as the CCG’s Shinigami, Hairu as an extremely talented and successful investigator, and Hsiao as part of the second Quinx-Generation), Furuta merely served as Kijima’s assistance in the background. In response to Eto’s words, what it would be like not to be able to call his father “father”, Furuta snaps. The relationship to his father seems to be one of his most vulnerable points. The major breach in Furuta’s life at the Sunlit Garden is the escape of Rize. Finding out about Furuta’s role in it, he presumably abandoned Furuta out of shame. The same happened to Yozo after his suicide attempt.

There is another interesting parallel in there. Both of them lose a woman they are close to after they express their hatred against society and seeking for any form of escape.

Tsuneko and Yozo attempted suicide because they are sick of society and how they are treated by it.

Furuta helps Rize escape because he despises the disgusting system of the Sunlit Garden.

Tsuneko dies. Yozo lives.

Rize disappears out of his reach. Furuta stays in the Garden.

After that, Yozo and Furuta both get abandoned by their fathers.

There are more parallels within their lives, which are more subtle.

For example Yozo meets his fried Horiki in his university years. Horiki introduces him to the world of alcohol, drugs, night clubs and prostitutes. He begins to live a parallel life, which is opposed to his strict, oppressing domestic lifestyle.

Same could be said about Furuta. As Souta he lives the life of a ghoul. He even joins a ghoul organization (Yozo also joins an organization in form of an illegal communist movement – in spite of his conservative father. And Tsuneyoshi wouldn’t be too happy if he found out Furuta joined a ghoul organization and becoming a half-ghoul). Furuta’s life of a ghoul is far away from the strict, formal, oppressed life at the CCG. The clowns just want to have a good laugh. Furuta’s and Yozo’s parallel lives filled with hedonism and pleasure addiction can be seen as a rebellion towards their restricted lives.

In the course of the story Yozo meets Shizuko, who works as an editor for a newspaper, and her five years old daughter Shigeko. Yozo and Shizuko start a relationship similar to a marriage. The daughter Shigeko eventually starts to call Yozo “Daddy”. This is the family life Furuta always wanted to have. But Yozo abandons this supposed perfect life. He feels out of place inside the family. He thinks, the mother and the daughter are happy together and his presence would merely destroy everything. He couldn’t stand the fear to corrupt the family and comes to the conclusion they would be better off without him. This shows that Yozo already gave up on the hope of living a normal “human” life. Furuta as well has given up on this hope long before – being convinced nobody would love him anyway he made himself into a villain.

Yozo experienced something Furuta feared the most, a fear that drove a lot of his actions when he was younger. After Yozo cut ties with Shizuko he meets Yoshiko. He is amazed by her unbiasedness, pureness and the amount of trust she puts in him. They end up married. But sometime after that Yozo witnesses how Yoshiko is sexually assaulted by a casual acquaintance. Instead of helping her, Yozo flees from the scene out of fear and mental overload. After that, Yoshiko is utterly broken by the trauma. The incidence leaves her shattered. Yozo as well is devastated over the guilt of not helping her, slipping more and more into the abuse of drugs and alcohol because of it. All the factors lead to thoughts like this and having him to give up on life completly:

“I want to die. I want to die more than ever before. There’s no chance now of a recovery. No matter what sort of thing I do, no matter what I do, it’s sure to be a failure, just a final coating applied to my shame. (…) All that can happen now is that one foul, humiliating sin will be piled on another, and my sufferings will become only the more acute. I want to die. I must die. Living itself is the source of sin.”

-          Osamu Dazai, No Longer Human

(“Living itself is the source of sin” – Yoshimura used similar words during the final fight in the original TG)

After she grew up Rize would have experienced rape as well. Furuta was the one, who helped her. This is contrary to Yozo who didn’t do anything. Even though the situations are different (Yoshiko was in the situation the very moment, Yozo had to act now, while Furuta was aware what would happen to Rize in the future, if he didn’t do anything. But there was no acute danger in that very moment), the parallels are still there.    

Furuta may have saved her when they were children, but then again it is Furuta himself who is responsible for Rize’s suffering in the present timeline. He commits terrible acts of violence against Rize: Smashing steel beams on her, capturing her and experimenting on her.  

All women Yozo had a relationship with end up miserable and meet a tragic fate. Tsuneko dies by suicide, Shizuko is being abandoned by him, Yoshiko is raped and traumatized by a stranger while Yozo couldn’t help her. While some of the things may not entirely his fault (Maybe Tsuneko would have committed suicide alone. The perpetrator is responsible for the rape of Yoshiko.), he has taken an active part in all this horrible events (Tsuneko and Yozo talked themselves into suicide, Tsuneko may have not made the decision to kill herself if there wasn’t somebody to join her. Yozo didn’t do anything to help Yoshiko and just let it happen – and fled actively from the crime scene).

When it comes to woman, there are three characters that are important when it comes to Furuta. Rize, Ami and Eto. All of them ended miserable as well.

Ami, his fiancée, was betrayed by Furuta in the ghoul restaurant. Furuta had no qualms to let his fiancée (he must have spent a long time with Ami. The relationship was presumably another act) be slaughtered right before his eyes. He was the one who set off her death in the first place.

I talked about Rize before, he held her captured, harvested her kakuhou and set her off as the dragon, leaving her dead in the end. Eto is defeated and gravely wounded by him, being used as a puppet of the clowns afterwards.

In contrary to Yozo, who is defined by his remorse, Furuta is not shown to feel any sign of regret. The regret he shows after the release of the dragon is merely another act set by him. In Furuta’s plan, within his short lifespan and his worldview, there is neither time nor room for regret.

Yozo resumes his situation and life the following in one of the final phrases of the book:

“Now I have neither happiness nor unhappiness.

Everything passes.

That is the one and only thing that I have thought resembled a truth in the society of human beings where I have dwelled up to now as in a burning hell.

Everything passes.”

-          Osamu Dazai, No Longer Human

This applies also to Furuta in the form of being neither happy nor unhappy – just being empty.

But in contrast to Yozo, Furuta doesn’t let everything pass apathetically in the end – if he did, he would have just waited until he died. The charges all opportunities he can find. He takes a hellish way of destruction. The destruction of oneself and the destruction of others. He literally turns the world into the “burning hell”, killing thousands of people in the process.

Both characters take a self-destructive path, be it in the way of abuse of alcohol and drugs or, in Furuta’s case, through a plan that contains the own death (and the death of thousand others).

Furuta and Yozo both gave up on their humanity.

Yozo never felt a connection to human being or being human his entire life and in the end of the novel he describes himself as “being disqualified as a human being” (dropping the japanese title of the book). Furuta on the other hand was a half-human and must have not felt totally human from the beginning as well. He let himself turn into a half-ghoul, hinting, that he gave up on his humanity and everything including voluntary. The transformation into a half-ghoul can be not only seen as a matter of physics but instead the epitome of abandonment of human nature and morals as well.

Thinking, they are unable to connect to other people, unable to love or be loved, both, Yozo and Furuta view themselves as disqualified from a human being.

Yozo’s memoirs end with these final sentences:

“This year I am twenty-seven. My hair has become much greyer. Most people would take me for over forty.”

-          Osamu Dazai, No Longer Human

It may be nitpicking, but it reminded me of the accelerated aging process of the half-humans.

Arima had white hair in his thirties and Furuta’s hair might have become grey as well when he had reached the age of 27 years.

“Mine has been a life of much shame. I can't even guess myself what it must be to live the life of a human being.”

-          Dazai Osamu, No Longer Human

These are the words that start Yozo’s memoirs.

Shame is a major theme in the novel “No Longer Human”. Since he was a child Yozo is defined by shame and being ashamed. The shame in his inability to understand and to connect to human beings. The shame that lies in hiding his true face. The shame that his true face is in fact utter emptiness. The shame and the fear to upset and anger other humans. Letting his true face show, being offensive. Even or especially the fact that he is existing. For Yozo all this and even more factors lead to unbearable, unforgiveable shame. And shame leads to fear. The more scared he is the more he’s feels shame for being the way he is. Yozo’s reasons to feel shame grew during his life.

He is ashamed of not being able to please his father. He is ashamed of letting Yoshiko die while he survives. His father discredits him after the suicide attempt because it brought shame over the family. He is ashamed of living what he calls a life of a parasite, seeing himself exploiting people constantly. He is ashamed of being happy, thinking he doesn’t deserve it – so he abandons Shizuko and Shigeko. He is ashamed of not being able to help Yoshiko. He is ashamed of his addictions, which take control over his life. 

Let’s take a look at Furuta. Has somebody who wears party glasses at his introduction ceremony even a sense of shame? Yes, there may be many occasions on his life Furuta felt ashamed in. After all Furuta – like Yozo – put close to no worth into his own life.

Back in the Sunlit Garden Furuta was shockingly aware of what rape means. Maybe he was aware that he too was a product of such a gruesome, barbaric act. This may have filled him with shame over his whole existence. It may be a reason why he didn’t see any worth in his life in the first place.

When it comes to the moment when he discovered the lineage of the Washuu-Clan, it may be an occasion to feel shame or humiliation as well. Seeing how all his relatives died in their early 30ties and knowing that his father has in fact a breeding facility for descendants, Furuta may have seen his own life as a throwaway product. He will not live long, he won’t have a future and there will be many children after him to replace him. He must have felt worthless.  

Furuta might even consider that fact being part of the Washuu-Clan, who committed all those cruel acts, as a source of shame.

When it comes to Rize Furuta may feel ashamed to have let himself been used by Rize. Rize gained her freedom through him but never thanked him or looked at him ever again. He might have felt Rize brought shame over what he had done for her. On the other hand he might be ashamed at his own ingenuousness to let himself to be exploited at the first place. Maybe he was ashamed that it hurt him at all.

When talking about Furuta and shame the factor of him becoming an outcast of the Washuu family is inevitable. This brought major humiliation over Furuta. What pain it brought to him to be abandoned by his beforehand alleged loving father is shown in his extreme reaction towards Eto which was discussed before. If that wasn’t enough he had to watch his siblings, especially Arima and Hairu in the position of glorified investigators. Furuta himself had the position of a rising hope – now he is forced to watch from the sidelines as a low-ranked investigator who is overshadowed by his partner Kijima (another role he played). He went from Tsuneyoshi’s favorite to an unacknowledged son. With is actions Furuta brought shame over the Washuu-Family and he may internalized that shame. It can be said he even embraced the role of the family’s disgrace, acting accordingly to it. Behind the mask of the meek investigator, Furuta wasn’t even trying to please anyone anymore. He was rude forwards Kaiko, a person commanding respect, and made fun of his own introduction ceremony. While Yozo tries to please everyone and the sole thought of upsetting someone drives him into deep despair, Furuta offends deliberately.

Yozo’s sense of shame keeps him paralyzed. The shame Furuta experienced (brought over him by others and the shame he feels himself) becomes a driving force and motivation for him (capturing Rize, extinguishing the Washuu-Clan). Remarkably Furuta is never shown to feel shame or regret over his own gruesome actions, showing how twisted his moral was at this point. He already saw himself as a shame and a monster beyond return (similar to Yozo who regards himself as disqualified from being a human) and he walked the path that he chose to the end. Giving up on the idea he was to be loved, he made himself a villain, the final boss that has to be beaten on the way towards a more peaceful world.  

 While Yozo gives in to apathy, Furuta acts (in a destructive way).

While Yozo thinks everything he does will result in failure, Furuta’s plan succeeds.

While Yozo states he desires nothing, Furuta literally carves for “everything” (being loved, happiness having a family).

 It is not confirmed whether Yozo died but strongly hinted by his miserable condition and a statement in the epilog, that he may be dead by now. Both Yozo and Furuta die lonely, without any comfort or company. Furuta finds solace in the illusion of his happy, carefree moments with Rize. But these times are over. Neither Yozo nor Furuta had ever had a close, real connection to a human being nor even identified themselves as one. They lived hiding their true faces and troubled selves behind carefree masks. But both have at least some kind of relief in the end. At least Furuta had the opportunity to let his mask fall in his very last moment, admitting to Kaneki that he just wanted a normal life. Yozo has written about his true face in his confessions, which lay before us, the readers, in form of the novel “No Longer Human”.  

This got way longer that I intended and I still have the feeling I haven’t said enough. But I will stop right here. I hope this text made any kind of sense. I wished I could finish this analysis earlier. It somewhat feels really strange to publish this, after the manga ended so recently....Anyway, thank you very much for reading.

✿ Tokyo Ghoul Week 2019 ❀

✿ Day 7 - Fragrant Olive ❀

Tokyo Ghoul Hanafuda Cards 7 - Arima Kishou

•Arima Kishou•

I chose that Arima has a creepy notebook/scrapbook/whatever the heck he needs it to be, where he hides all his emotions

One day Marude just sees his notebook, paint drying snaps a photo and leaves before Arima comes back

He sends this to people (Shinohara, Amon, Both Mado, Ui, and Take, + some others,) and one of them (maybe Shinohara) starts a group chat with people who Marude sent this to

Before that he was like what, what the heck?!?

Like everyone was surprised, except Juuzou, who found out be stealing Shinohara’s phone.

Like they all freak out because they can’t read any of his hand writing, it take 1 week for Marude and Mado working together(!) to decrypt the the words

Take is just like wha? Why did he keep this s a secret. Like he cares about Arima, despite him not showing it much. He knows about the garden. He just didn’t think that it would effect him this much

Shinohara knows that he saw Arima with a red line on his neck multiple times in the past, always trying to hide it. This just confirms it, also the fact that he thinks of ghouls, like the binge eater, as family creeps him out and he is disgusted by it

Mado is surprised when the uncover the one that says half ghoul, he knew something was up with Arima, but didn’t everybody at first. He wonders about why Arima can eat normal food and why he does eat humans, more research to be done. (I say it all like he is calm because I can’t translate to Kureo speech with how many thought are I my brain at this moment)

(Marude is horrified and-

Okay, my mind has calmed down….. If anyone likes this idea you can add on to it, or if the characterization is off, pls fix it

Also the ghouls other than Rize are made up, just wanted to create some random ghouls to use

Let me make it very clear. I do not know how I painted the blood on Arima’s shirt. It was a fluke. And I am failing to replicate it…

Tokyo ghoul re: 82 summary

Kaneki : I'm ready to live. Arima: I'm ready to die. Ishida sui: forgot to say 'happy father's day', too late?

I think furuta character is basically ishida.

I mean COME ON, his 'super peace' is a way of saying: 'I'm here for the lolz'

That emotion you get when you pretend that the pokemon you catch is kaneki's happiness, but then it just gets out of hand cuz each pokemon you catch is like someone's happiness in TG, and then it's just: here one for you,and you too an- HEY YOU * points at arima* YOU GET ONE TOO!!!!

THAT FEELING WHEN …

Huhm.
