I’m not sure about whether the pattern in the name is intentional but I definitely think Kaneki = Haise.

Firstly because in ch. 143, when the Chairman asked Arima what he was going to do about the ‘name’ there was this panel: watch out raw spoiler

Suitcase

That 22 years old guy is proably Kaneki

>はいせ >Haise Well played Ishida.

The text was “Haise…” It was kinda highly suggestive that they erased Kaneki’s identity and so they wanted to give him a new name or something.

Secondly, Ishida-sensei actually drew Haise the way I imagined Kaneki would look like after recovering from that ordeal: white hair turning partially black again. ( It fits the yin-yang concept and Kaneki being balanced between black / white.)

How does this adorable guy not look like Kaneki? The hairstyle and eyes?
