Why are you people acting like this is the last chapter and there will be no more character development? Geez! Relax. Breathe. Kaneki and Touka's relationship is a huge part of this manga and given how this is a very significant part of their relationship, of course it makes sense to let it play out slowly and intimately. It is a very emotional and intense experience, not just go in, go out, done.

This isn't just a casual hookup or a psycho unloading her carnal desires, this is the union of two people who are very much in love with each other. "Underdeveloped" I'm seeing some people say. "Rushed" they say. Are you kidding? I mean, it's not like Kaneki and Touka only ever think of each other or some crap like that. They've worked together, fought together, trained together, they've saved each other's lives, they are the parental figures to Hinami, and they've spent some time apart and grew as individuals before meeting again. THIS IS AS DEVELOPED AS THEY COME PEOPLE!! WTF DO YOU MEAN UNDERDEVELOPED?!?! Do you think people have to be permanently glued to each other's sides to be closer?

Kaneki didn't want Touka to die off somewhere without his knowledge, so he's been trying to take on the world without her so that she wouldn't have to live in such a violent and desperate way. Touka has been trying to make a place where ghouls can live in peace probably in honor of Yoshimura and hoping that one day Kaneki will return to that place she's kept safe.

This chapter was beautiful. Pacing is appropriate. 10/10. It's never just sex, or at least it should never be just sex. Unless it's actually gonna go "HAHA IT WAS UTA THE WHOLE TIME", this chapter is PERFECT.
