Oh, I thought the same thing for a while. I was almost certain that Takatsuki was kind of "Ishida's avatar" in his own story, at least in the beginning she looked like she were, but eventually Eto began to develop autonomously as a character. lol, do people translate even his tweets? Ishida is starting to be more like a cult leader than a regular manga artist.

I don't think Eto will die this arc because Ishida seems to be setting up the story for the arrival of a new major antagonist: V. Eto is the only known character who's spent the past 13+ years genning up on said organization and seemed also willing to help the protagonist; I can totally see her teaming up with Kaneki and other folks in order to succeed in annihilating V. I do think she may eventually die, but her presence still feels too necessary for the plot in my opinion. Plus, Ishida has spent time working on the humanization of her character: if she were to die right now, it'd just be a huge waste of work and time.

You're fine. It's alright if you're not that good with people, nobody can be good at everything; there are things I'm not very good at, too. I don't believe changing to please others to be a good thing; I do believe in self-improvement to a certain degree, but one shouldn't force themself if they don't think they're doing it for their own good. Sometimes just accepting who we are is the right thing to do, although it's not always that easy.

Thanks, good luck for your recovery as well ^_^ [Do people actually say this for flus and such, or are you supposed to be hospitalized if someone wishes you a good recovery? Sometimes I fail to grasp these nuances in English.]
