Well, not that exactly...

Riddle Answer: Kakuhous was originally discovered as a unknown species of sea invertebrate within the depths of the deep sea, using the kagune as its main body for mobility akin of a jellyfish or acquiring food akin of a sea anemone on the bottom or form rc-cell coral reefs to defend its colonies from other sub-forms of the kakuhou.

Upon the discovery of the species, the humans also discovered the amazing regenerative properties of the rc-cells and wished to apply it to themselves in order to achieve immortality or create better soldiers for themselves, leading them to harvesting the kakuhou-species and apply them for human usage.

However upon exposing humans to the rc-cells within the kakuhous, they also discovered their toxicity as some people developed ROS upon over exposure to the rc-cells and the species, forcing them into mass experimentation on plenty of volunteers which lead to the discovery of human variants with a heightened enough immune system to tolerate the rc-cells. The next step, was multiplying these individuals through a breeding program in order to increase their numbers and then directly put the theory to the test, implanting the kakuhou specimens directly into a human being in order to fully utilize their abilities and regenerative properties.

The successful symbiosis between kakuhou and human lead to the creation of the first ghouls, which ended up as permanent carriers of the species which no longer had to compete in the depths of the ocean for its survival, having climbed out of the waters and using a human host in order to continue its life-cycle on cannibalizing rc-cells within its own life-cycle and ecosystem.

The symbiosis proved so effective that the kakuhou´s assexual reproductive cycle intergrated into the human form of reproduction, blending its offspring alongside with the male seed and female egg, allowing the infestation and symbiosis to take place upon conception and forming of the next offsrping. Starting the bloodline of the "ghouls" to be formed naturally on dry land.

The kakuhou might still exist in its natural habitat within the depths of the ocean, its existence and areas kept secret by those who wished to exploit them fully and keep their competition and rivals unaware of the source of the "ghouls" as the main objective behind exploiting this marine species has still not been achieved yet.

"True Immortality" invoked by high-speed regenerative properties within the kakuhou and the rc-cells, akin to the legendary "Immortal jellyfish" which receds into a juvenile state in order to continue its lifecycle in a endless loop.

This is the end goal which the Washuu clan has been aiming for and dedicated their ghoul research to as the majority of their offspring turned out to be "demi-humans", flawed products, which needed a proper correction. Some of the elders of the clan might be demi-humans as well, wishing for immortality of their own.

Throught Tokyo ghoul, the themes of parasitism, symbiosis, bonds and "building bridges" between two sides has been prevelant. How more fitting wouldn´t this be if it also meant the initial bridge between two species which ended up into a bridge of host and parasite as well?

Every human being has rc-cells within their bodies, yet the question is, where did it come from?

What if they gained these upon digesting marine life which in turn digested the kakuhous somewhere down in the food-chain pyramid, ending up into larger and larger amounts the higher up in it it got?

(Like of toxins builds up more and more until it reaches the top to severe consequences and effects? And who is on top of earth´s foodchain if not Humanity itself?)

This is the origin of the rc-cells, the Depths of the Abyss, and the original kakuhous where mere sea life hidden away at the bottom of the seas. which managed to find its way up to the humans through both the human foodchain and the intervention of human beings blinded by the temptation of regeneraiton and immortality, accelerating the process further.

This might be the answer.

The answer of "where the ghouls origined from?"

And I will make it clear here: It is a theory.

My theory.

And if this turns out to be the case, then I say, "I called it".

Opinions and thoughts on this?
