Spoilers WARNING: Tokyo Ghoul and Tokyo Ghoul:RE

[m4r1us]

Just spent my last few days reading Tokyo Ghoul, and I have to say it's a masterpiece beyond imagination. The ending was, to say the least, a SHOCK. That Touka last page was so heartbreaking for a fanboy like me.

The day I finished reading Tokyo Ghoul, being extremely impressed, yet somehow having a bitter taste from the inconclusive ending the first chapter of Tokyo Ghoul:RE aired. Seems to me like Kaneki's still alive.



Among many other reasons, but this one's been the one that's hit me the hardest. I omitted it when I read chapter 143, or rather, I assumed it's Arima's silhouette. But it kinda makes sense now. This Sui Ishida is a freakin genius. All hail.

The protagonist Haise not only looks very much like Kaneki, but also there are some things that add up. According to the wiki the timeskip between Tokyo Ghoul and Tokyo Ghoul:RE was three years. Kaneki's age at the time of his presumed death at the hands of Arima was 19. Haise's age is 22. He most probably is amnesiac from suffering brain damage, after being stabbed twice.

Also they're about the same weight and height.
Kaneki:
-169cm
-55kg
-19 years old


Haise:
-170cm
-58kg
-22 years old


It will all become clear when one thing will be revealed: Haise's blood group (if it's AB he's Kaneki).
