What he said isn't incorrect or ridiculous though. Arima going blind (almost completely in one eye) is not "Nerfing" him. "Nerfing" would be writing to be inexplicably weaker for the sake of being weaker than his opponent. That was not the case. This being a manga has little to do with it.

It seems your trying to establish this whole "Kaneki isn't stronger than Arima" thought, but in all honesty, that isn't the case. Circumstances have made Kaneki stronger. Not "nerfing".

Perhaps you don't want to let go of the fact that Arima is this unbeaten monster, but that is a thing of the past now. The story has moved on.

You could make a better argument that Eto was nerfed, but that still would have little basis. The fact of the matter is, the story has built up this transition.
