I'm still not convinced that Kid Shironeki is the "real" Kaneki tbh. The Kaneki we've been seeing so far comes across more as being like the hallucinations Kaneki had of Rize in the orginal series. I think we only her twice, but the first time, she was a coherent and fully functional person because that's how Kaneki thought of her. The second time was after Kaneki saw how badly Rize mentally deteriorated, so he then saw her as a mindless monster.

Little Kaneki is kind of the same thing me thinks-a figment of Sasaki's imagenation who changes based on his perspective. I'm still waiting on the English translations for better clarification, but from the translated bits and scans I've seen so far, it looks like Sasaki recalled snippets of memories that make him think that Kaneki might have been involved in Akira's father's death. It was after that that Kaneki suddenly became the "bad guy" again.
