Haters to the left!

That said, I agree with everyone else already pointing out that hating Touka over that scene or calling it a "tsundere Bitch-fit" is not only unfair towards her but shows that OP Anon wasn't paying attention to the series or characters at all.

Kaneki does reckless, stupid, self-destructive, violent, and selfish things while trying to justify it by claiming that he is doing it to protect Touka and everyone else.

Touka catches how he's making excuses, and literally beats some sense into him. She had every right to be angry with him, to call him out on his actions, and to make him understand in the only way he was going to listen.

Pretty much everyone else around him had been an Enabler (manga) or encouraged (anime) him. Touka was the one to finally make him realize how badly he'd messed up, and make him finally start attempting to fix all the damage he'd done to himself, his relationships, and his life in general.

Sometimes, you have to beat the crap out of the people you care about to save them from themselves.
