you can just compare the hide and kaneki friendship with touka and kaneki and youll notice there is a huge a HUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUGE difference.

hide and kaneki knew each other for >10 years in and out, he was the only supportive person for kaneki, they were basically living in their own bubble for a decade > they are close friends

touka and kaneki knew each other barely. sure they care for each other. thats what friends do, especially in such a tiny community as ghouls. just read chapter 118 touka knows literally nothing abt kaneki despite spending weeks in the same enviroment as him. which makes sense bc kaneki is always building walls around him. they are friends. good friends thats it. touka and kaneki were not able to understand each other well hence the bridge scene bc touka was bad dealing with it - in the sewers on the other side for a moment hide completly broke all wall of kaneki dawn just by a few words.

actually you just cant compare those two bonds it just doesnt work. you cant compare a 3 month friendship to a ten year companionship. and thats why for me its no question that touka and kaneki are nothing more than friends they didnt have the time and werent ready to develope anything stronger/ more than that.
