Talk:Re: Chapter 65/@comment-74.135.59.112-20160221130014

Hey people, I just wanted to give my sorta analysis of the chapter to see what you guys think of it, and to see if I'm either missing or misunderstanding any key points. I know it's gonna be a lot to read, so shout out to anyone who actually reads it all. So here I go:

The chapter starts off with the fight between Shachi and Arima/his squad as expected. However, we again get to see how strong Shachi is as he repeatedly kicks around investigators from Arima's own squad with ease. On the other hand, once Arima steps, the fight inevitably takes a turn for the worst, at least for Shachi. In brief, Arima absolutely wrecks Shachi, for lack of a better word. This just goes to show the gap in power between Arima and other investigator; frankly, I think it is a bit ridiculous. It is this ridiculousness in fact that some people may use to support a theory of theirs based off the fight and what Shachi was thinking durin it. During the fight, Shachi apparently noticed something about Arima's eyes, eventually realizing that Arima's "weakness" is his "blindspot." I don't think that this immediately means that Arima is a ghoul at all; instead, just like Kaneki, he may have had some eye injurie a while ago, and now wheres glasses to help his eye sight. Either way, Shachi goes in to attack from this spot, but Arima just reaches around, stabs Shachi in the throat, and electorcutes him on the spot. The end. This shows us that Arima is aware of his blindspot, if it truly is one at all, and knows how to account for it, so simply attacking from that spot won't be enough to kill him.

As he dies, Shachi thinks about an occasion where he was talking to Yomo and Nishiki somewhere. They say that Rize is "beyond our control now." In the past, Shachi was not able to control Rize; he told her to stop binge-eating, and she only listened for a finite amount of time. Therefore, this could mean that she is out and about again doing her thing. However, I don't think so because a) she would have had to escaped, and b) V would've captured her right quick. So honestly, I don't know exactly what they meant by that. The fight ends with Shachi  ominously urgin Rize in his head to run...

Moving on. Surpisingly to me, Kaneki approaches Urie and asks to talk. Before they get to the conversation though, the chapter switches to my boy Banjou reading, or at least trying to read, Eto's new book. The book unnerves him, and he wonders what that "one-eyed woman" is planning. And then, just as one of his crew is saying how the story moved him, my boy Ayato shows up. He states that the book is moving in that it is a wish for the coming of the one-eyed king. I want to talk about this line for just a little bit. In Christianity, Christians await the second coming of Jesus, their savior, messiah, and king. It seems that for the ghouls, this OEK is supposed to be seen as their savior, a mighty force that can break down all the corruption once and for all. Anyway, the chapter again switches to Urie and Kaneki/Sasaki. Kaneki drops one of the big revelations thsi chapter that he, along with Arima squad, will not be participating in the fight at Rue Island. The fact alone that that is mentioned this chapter makes me think that the battle will start very soon, possibly even next chapter.

Kaneki states that he will be helping out in the protection of the CCG's "most valuable asset," which he reveals to be Cochlea. And at the same time in the convo between Ayato and Banjou, Ayato states that he wants Banjou's help in breaking through Cochlea's walls to rescue Hinami. I honestly had to take a breather when I read this, because the parralels, or approaching parallels, are way too real. As wel all know, when Kaneki went shironeki, he went berserk on Ayato for what he was doing to Touka. And now, sorta around the same time chapter-wise in :re, they are being put smackdab in the same place at the same time, and Kaneki is as unpredictable as ever. My big question is why is Kaneki choosing to stay on the mainland. Is it because that is where Eto is? Does he somehow know of Ayato's plan(could Eto have told him?)? It just seems so convenient that there has to be an underlying reasoning, and I am awaiting that with bated breath.

Moving on again. Kaneki asks Urie to rescue Mitsuki, showing that he has not totally forgotten or stopped caring about the Qs. This brings in yet another murky dimension to his character at the moment. He goes from going berserk against Eto on the roof to caring about his Qs. He is cold and calculating one instant and caring the next. Anyway, as he says this a couple pannels show Torso, without a shirt on, approaching someone, presumably Mutsuki, and he says my Tooru...This also freaked me out. I reaaaallly hope that Ishida doesn't go the sexual assault route, but again, Torso did say that they were going to get "married," and we all know what happens on a "wedding night..." All I say is hurry Urie hurry.

And finally, oh finally, that last page. The page that made me go WTFFFFF and just quit. Many of us thought it possible, indeed, in essence already a fact, but for it to be thrown right at the end of an already MONSTER of a chapter just wrecked me. We see  Eto and Furuta(the fiendiest of all fiends), just chilling, joking around in some room, probably at the CCG. Furuta says that short hair does suit Eto(he calls her Takatsuki, probably mockingly), and she says "Silence. You damned Clown of Kanou," thereby ending the chapter. Holy crap. Now we know that Furuta has connections to Kanou/Aogiri/Eto, the Clowns, the CCG, and to top it all off, V. Who the heck is this guy? This really makes me think that Furuta is a very likely candidate for who is Souta, or who is the leader of the Clowns. I mean this guy simultaneously has connections to all of the major organizations in the series. I'm frankly dumbfounded, so this is the topic that I want your guys' insing on the most. Thanks for reading
