^ I do agree with you on that assertion, fellow anon.

Anyway, I think it could easily be said that on Kaneki's roster of close ones, Hide is his most important one on the human side, very crucial support in many times in his life, and Touka the same on the ghoul side. Though even with the few months they had together, getting crushes is not guaranteed, but neither is it a surprising thing either, especially with the troubles they faced together, and the changes in mindset both had in that time. I´m often of the opinion that romantic love is overrated, though in this case I do find it rather beautiful and convincing that there´s a crush involved. Kaneki's reaction at seeing her as Sasaki(not just the coffee, but before that too) further lends credibility to the idea that the feelings are deeply rooted.
