^ Well, yeah. That's what draws people to works like this in the first place, I suppose. It's a twisted and morally ambiguous world where there's enough good to feel hopeful and allow yourself to be emotionally invested but enough bad to always threaten some turn or sudden tragedy.

And we like characters like Furuta because they're interesting. Someone like Matsuri is, so far, just a boring, garden variety elitist scumbag; obnoxious by design. Hinami, in contrast, is the universally precious ingenue that, especially in this series, embodies everything good and redeemable, which is why her life is so important to the fandom since in many opinions Kaneki's salvation hinges on it.

But the reason a guy like Matsuri can simply ignore Ginshi's dead body and we hate him for it  but Furuta can have that body stolen to be dissected and it makes him even more fascinating is that we accept that a lot of the people we encounter in this story are going to do very bad things, but when you do bad things with style you can't help but pique folks' interest.

Plus he's hot. Hot people get away with everything.
