About Touka's age: The guess that Touka was 16 at the start of TG is probably derived from an old version of her wiki page here in the first place. However, we only have one fact that we can use to guess her age, and that's her school year. She's a high school somophore, and in Japan almost all of them are 16 years old on April 1st, and the ones who aren't 16 should be even older (staying down is theoretically possible, practically it does not happen, and in Japan you can't skip classes). Her birthday is July 1st, so she's almost certainly 17 when she meets Kaneki.
