Except not nearly as facepalm-worthy as the whole Speedball - Penance thing.

I'm definitely curious to see where things will go, since there is a lot that could be built on from the original series. He was primarily comic relief and the butt of the jokes, but his immaturity and extreme jealousy showed him to be flawed and kind of a weak person. But he managed to confront some of those weaknesses, by trusting Akira (and apparently realizing something about their relationship) and refusing to abandon Amon.

But I don't doubt that Tatara had a major hand in his current state. Between his personal weaknesses (doubt, resentment) and the stress of being made into a Ghoul, he was probably already messed up before Aogiri did anything else to him.
