Talk:Ken Kaneki/@comment-79.54.22.141-20151029214217

It has been said a lot of times by a lot of fans, but while rereading the original manga as it's being published in my country, I can't help but miss white-haired Kaneki.

Yes, it makes me sound like that freak Roma, but neither the original, meek Kaneki nor the current Haise do justice to the character as Centipede did. Maybe because he's such a unique character compared to other contemporary fictional protagonists, and definitely because enjoying tormented/broken characters is one of my guilty pleasures.

I miss him, I really do. Sasaki may appeal to a broader audience, but I can't help but see an usurper in him, a mask forced on Kaneki's face. A mask that, in its falsehood, somehow granted him some peace and respite, that much I admit.

So I still hope, that wether it ends in tragedy again or not, :re will give us Centipede back. At least some will disapprove, but I can't help but see Haise as a waste of character potential of monstrous proportions.

Sorry for the rant, I needed to put my thoughts into words somewhere.
