Oh my god... "Kaneki will be stronger than nearly half the cast of Tokyo Ghoul..."?

That statement is pretty weird, and putting that "nearly" into it makes it look like a joke (which I hope it is).

Kaneki was already able to easily deffeat Shinohara. He deffeated Amon (Kaneki held himself back, Amon didn't, yet Amon lost). Kaneki was able to scratch Arima, for the love of god. That automatically enables him to defeat any other Special Class investigator, since, even while being laid-back, Arima is by far faster than any other investigator. Followingly, Kaneki's attack which scratched Arima would've been a devestating, body-smashing blow against any other investigator. Just look at how easily he completely unarmed squads of investigators (With one Special Class being the leaser and having several Associate, First Classes or rank 1 investigators besides him). Unarmed. Unarming someone is far more difficult than deffeating him.

By the end of chapter 143, he was already able to deffeat far, far more than half of the TG cast. And if he finally would embrace his ghoul side again, he would kick everyone's ass once again. Right now, only one investigator is above him: Arima. Except of that, there's like a dozen of ghouls that could deffeat Kaneki (Eto for sure, Takizawa if he went all out, Amon (if rumors are true), maybe the other artificial owls, Tatara and Noro maybe, and a few one's which haven't been introduced). But regarding the fact that Kaneki (while concentrating to maximize his ghoul abilities) has grown into one of the strongest ghouls in just six months, he'll surely surpass anyone else within a short time.

Not fanboying here. I don't like the idea that the MC is THAT strong before the end comes, but it's just a fact.
