My bad then, it's just that whenever people say "Kuroneki" and "Shironeki" I always assume that they are talking about two distinct personalities. Also this part "   I'm pretty sure Kuroneki, not Shironeki is Kaneki's true character. " kind of confused me - I've misunderstood. Sorry. That aside, the CCG claimed the lives of several of his friends and led to the downfall of many others (such as Ryoko, Hinami's father, Yoshimura, Irimi, Koma and so on. If you count the people hurt the list extends further). Even now the CCG is amassing power and hunting down his friends and he is used as a disposable shock trooper by them. The CCG is just as much a threat to Kaneki's friends as Aogiri (and we all know how post-Aogiri Kaneki used to deal with Aogiri). I agree with what you are saying that he spares weaker ghouls and he didn't know he'd be fighting his friends, but the end result is still that the CCG are forcing him to combat those whom he wants to defend. These weaker ghouls are going to spend a life in Cochlea (which could be good or bad - we don't know if there were pacifists among the captured or not) unless they are killed before that and his friends are still getting hurt and potentially killed because the CCG is just using Kaneki's body. I also think that if Haise were to revert to Kaneki, not much would change - his behaviour would be the same and his personality will remain similar to the way it is, but his stance will change - I doubt he'll let his friends silently suffer alone all the while allowing the CCG to exploit him. I expect he'd take his rightful place in :re. As to your point of view, I disagree - I think people are not even slightly born the way they are - they all grow into their personalities. Then again, there is a very heated argument (in the sphere of Psychology I think) regarding the whole "nature vs nurture" thing and I don't think either of us can really claim we have the answer to that question, so there's not much point arguing that. I thank you for your time and wish you good luck in your exam! All the best.
