Talk:Ken Kaneki's mother/@comment-122.62.106.32-20151130034729

She was probably where Kaneki got the personality of his mind Rize. Afterall he only spent a date with Rize in which she acted friendly and he was only shown Rize's true personality when she attacked him. The attack only lasted a few minutes at the max and most likely didn't last one. So for Kaneki to form such a concrete personality in that amount of time with what he would have already knew of her would have been extremely hard to almost impossible.

So where did he get Rize's personality then.

His mother. She appeared to be kind, hard working and they look slightly simmilar. But then Kaneki's mother is revelled to have been abusive to him physicaly and emotionaly. So when he formed the personality of Rize he took inspiration from something that was similar to her, his mother. Using the memories that he repressed he constructed Rize using what he already knew of her and filled in the gaps with his mother. You could consider that Rize was his mother into the ghoul world. Before her he questioned wether ghouls existed.

So Kankei's real mother is similar to his mother into the ghoul world, Rize.
