Question: Ghoul cannibalizing is not a rare occurence, right? What is rare is the off-chance of developing a Kakuja, as I understand it...

So what happens when a ghoul cannibilize, increases the rc-cell account and just doesn´t get a Kakuja?

Would they, theoretically, be able to increase the size of their kagune and develop more kagune sacks for "spare" kagunes in case the first one is destroyed since the Rc-cell account would increase from the act of cannibalizm anyway even if they doesn´t develop the kakuja armor and become kakujas?

I refuse to believe that Kakuja is the only thing that can come out from cannibalism without any other potential effects from it since the rc-cell amounts would increase regardless with each ghoul-meal.

So is it possible that a ghoul who cannibalize, but never get a kakuja, instead gains other benefits from it in form of extra kagune sacks, increased size and strength in the kagune than before?

The reason I´m putting this out, is because of Nishiki/Orochi and his massively improved Bikaku that we saw in RE...

Not only had it got a lot bigger, it was strong enough to flip police-cars like nothing, regenerate multiple times after being destroyed over and over by Sasaki... and above all, it also seems that Nishiki´s overall regeneration have increased since the last time we saw him... The first time he got a hole through the gut or fought Kaneki, he was a wreck, he couldn´t even move and was in average injured to the point were he couldn´t even hunt properly...

Now? Same battle, same injuries, impaled multiple times and got a hole throught the stomach in deja-vu once again...

...and he just shrugged it off like nothing and walked away, jumping up to a street high above him too like it was nothing! He just "walked off" the same injury that crippled him the first time it was inflicted on him...

Yes, one could argue that he been training like crazy for the last couple of years with Yomo or someone else, but it doesn´t change the fact that his bikaku got a lot bigger for a reason... and the only reason as I see it, would be that he managed to increase his rc-cell account through ingestion for the last couple of years, creating that huge snake coming out from his back. I doubt that kagune just can change size with the same rc-value unchanged after all...

So tell me, is it possible that a cannibalizing ghoul can get other benefits from this act even if they never develop a kakuja from it?
