> It's kinda funny that it really all went according to Furuta's plan

It's a pattern, the author cant write a good story so it was obvious that this is gonna happen. No matter what the protagonist Ken Kaneki does,  whatever motivation Furuta might have, it is the same as the stories of dozen of other comics with similar archetypes, only less polished. Like Arima, certain characters are just powerful for the sake of the plot. Instead of developing a coherent narrative from both sides of a clash in ideology, which would require decent creativity, he opts for the formula that "the edgy side always comes out on top". Showing struggles from one side and then end with the other side just "sorta figured out everything lol" is the most pedestrian standard cookie cutter fiction there is, it is no wonder good Japanese writers never get involved with mangas.

Ever since chapter 1 Tokyo ghoul, the author literally has one formula.

Maybe I have a broader view since I went through this series and the first series within a few days, but it's really repititive, and most of the dialogues can be skipped, the only substance from the writing of this manga is from quoting some famous German writers.
