Here´s something that been on my mind for a while...

...why aren´t there any "slime"-type rinkakus?

The rinkaku is the one with the frailest structure, and it´s mostly liquid, so is it possible for a ghoul to develop a slime typed one?

I personally think that a slime-based kagune would be a nightmare to fight with, since it wouldn´t be easily to cut, absorb impacts and even if it can´t break or cut apart quinques, all the user really have to do is engulf the head of the opponent and let it choke to death, since regardless if it´s human or ghoul, it would still need to breathe, right?

but then again, isn´t slime a state of existence? like gas, solid or liquid? Wonder if a Koukaku could still be called one even if its kagune wasn´t essentially a big blood-clot but slime instead? That would have made it a lot easier to move around, not so heavy, and would be able to absorb blows and resist both projectiles and cuts with ease...

The reason this idea of a "slime" kagune came to mind, was when I saw Tsukiyama´s current state of his koukaku...

It´s huge, he moves it around with ease like a ribbon yet carries a heck of a punch to it. And with his circumstances, regarding the cannibalism and the inbreed genetic defects along with the situation regarding the kakuja state, I was wondering.

Could it be possible that instead for plate armor, his rc-cells have mutated and turned into a slime state instead for a solid one?

It would fit perfectly with the "highest defense" of the kagunes and would explain how he could move around an appendage that´s way bigger than him or Kanae like it was a tiny ribbon. Slime weighs less after all...

So... did Shuu actually gain a snail motif?

(come to think about it, his initial koukaku does look like a... )

(beat)

Shuu got a slime koukaku after the timeskip. He´s a "malalaysian trumpet snail"

He´s "Snail Shuu"

Or "Snuu" for short.

(laughing.)

So is a slime kagune possible?
