@ Dalaios Thanks~

@ Meowchi Amon is a good option for the long-term goal imo. I think we'll have multiple "bridges" throughout the story, but I think Kaneki and Amon are strong candidates for the head runners.

@ Highermind "Support" probably wasn't the best choice of words. "In concurrence" perhaps? He's definitely wasn't against them. Kaneki had a "zero kill" policy when it came to humans, though I think it did apply to Amon especially because he was part of the CCG. Not so much in support of them, but because the CCG is the enemy of ghouls and they're the ones Kaneki needs to convince that not all are evil or immediately go for the kill. Which, while a small step, proved to be effective since Amon had been questioning things since that day.

It's not a popular opinion, buuuuutttt...I do agree. Kaneki did have a hypercritical side. Since he did spend most of his life as a human and was never really comfortable with his new ghoul identity, he did have a bias, even after making close ghoul friends. Granted, his choice in relentlessly killing was a complicated one as he does later express regret over it. Although, the more I try to rationalize his actions, the more questions I have.

1)This is a good point and I have often asked myself the hypothetical question "what if Kaneki was working for the CCG but had all his memories?" Kaneki has proved in the past to be relentless when he wants and the CCG knows it. Because of the kagune marks left behind, they ought to know that he was the one behind the massacre at the Ghoul Restaurant. They also know he brutalized those experiments at Kanou's lab. I'm kind of on the fence with the idea that the CCG wouldn't want Sasaki to reclaim his memories because he'd be against mass extermination when he comes across as a friend to no ghoul. Although, I would chalk up them not wanting him to remember due to this kind of brutality. I mean, they probably wouldn't want someone on their team that comes across as so ruthless as to trap dozens of his own kind in a room and massacre them for seemingly no reason.

2)Sasaki might learn something in the future, but I don't think the CCG's shady business really applies to him now or his past. I mean, as far as keeping him under their thumb via lies and concealing the truth, he never knew of their dirty secrets and the CCG doesn't have a reason to think that he might've.
