^ I disagree, I think she's shown some development this arc. But it was not dramatic or loud, it was very understated and quiet kind of development. I mean, look at the three reunions she had and how much she's grown since the original series.

She was able to finally begin healing the broken relationship with her little brother, and praised him for how much he's grown in the years they've been apart.

She joked about smacking Hinami for all the stupidity of joining Aogiri, but then merely gave her a pinch on the cheeks and comforted her.

And when she saw Kaneki again, instead of letting her emotions get the better of her this time (unlike on the bridge in the original series), she let him know that there was somewhere for him to come home to. He was still wavering, but she helped start the process that concluded with him seeing "Hide", and realizing that he wants to live.

So Touka has come a long way as a person, from the hot-headed and violent girl she used to be. She's matured, and is better able to reach out to people and connect with them.
