Talk:Ken Kaneki/@comment-26967758-20151118113227

I might have not seen it, but I don't think there's a section that talks about Kaneki's relationship with Eto/Sen Takatsuki. Shouldn't that be added? I mean granted, they've only met once, but the entire story is kind of building up to the fact that despite the fact that Eto was a natural born human/ghoul hybrid, she's more or less a normal ghoul in terms of perspective - she never had a human life, nor does she know what the taste of human food is like. Kaneki on the other hand, despite being artificial, he's more real than she is, meaning he has a real sense of what he should do, who he should be, and where he actually should be fitting in. At the beginning, he knew right away he didn't belong, but knew he had to find a place he did, but with Eto, felt like she knew she didn't belong, and forced her way into belonging by striking up fear in people as the Owl and creating Aogiri, her place to belong. Ths kind of goes back to Maslow's Hierarchy of needs, with a need of security and sense of belonging as well as self coming into play - the food factor is a physiological need. Surprises me everytime I realise how well Ishida knows his Psychology.
