It's actually really surprising that Touka hasn't been more apart of the plot, especially taking into consideration the people she associates with. The only "weak" character she really associates with is Yoriko. Tsukiyama, Ayato, Yoshimura, Koma, Irimi, Uta, Nishiki, Renji, her father, Arata and even Kaneki himself are all powerful ghouls within their own right. (Let me know if I may be missing someone.) I also wonder if she knew Rize well, since she referred to her on first-name basis and seemed to understand how dangerous she was. That air of familiarity, quite possibly, could have originated as an error from "less skilled" Ishida though.

Speaking of Ishida, his fight scenes are gradually improving. As you know, fight scenes haven't been his forte but recently they've been getting easier to interpret what's occurring. And in Zakki, he commented he wasn't too keen on perspective drawings, but has been doing plenty of those, and they've been looking amazing. If this arc is doubling as a catalyst for personal improvement, it's been proving effective.

Anyway, two things are concerning when it pertains to Touka's future but not things to lose all sanity over. She's gotten hell of a lot stronger for an ukaku ghoul. Worrisome since that means she's a candidate to participate in battles now, by obligation or necessity of course since I think you're right about that. (Battles = death potential, even though she's not a 100% vital character, can't imagine TG without her tbh). The second concern probably shouldn't carry so much weight but personally, it has. Touka has met Furuta and he knew she was a ghoul. Furuta's undeniably dangerous (dangerous)and is too intelligent to forget a face, so its briefness doesn't feel like a saving grace at all.

Imagine an adorable Banjou showing Kaneki all the books he can read, "I read dis one ^_^ oh! and this one too, see? See, it's thicker than dat one!" (I hope he's still scared of ghosts after four years.)
