Sorry that I'm bothering you again about Root A, but they have been publishing little bits from Ishida's draft.

Even Naki being freed during a prisoner transport is made up by the staff. In Ishida's draft, he was freed by Eto at the start of the Cochlea raid.

Which means that about three scenes from Ishida's draft made it into the anime (two of which were redrafted from manga scenes): Touka-Hide meeting, the investigator meeting at the start of episode 1 and Kaneki-Naki scene where Kaneki writes "Yamori" on the floor (but even that scene was heavily altered; originally, Kaneki talked a lot in that scene). Everything else is made up by the anime staff.

In other words, I bet the staff just used Ishida's draft as an excuse to do whatever they want and never really had any intention to adapt his draft. They still aren't above using Ishida's draft as advertisement, though. They're so full of themselves, but have no clue what Tokyo Ghoul is about.

Ishida wrote in his comment for this season: "Director Morita, who does me the favor of complying with my unreasonable proposal to the very limit." Honestly, I can now only interpret it as Ishida being sarcastic. It's not true at all.
