Now that I'm reading everyone's replies, it really hits me how much has happened in this one. It was just an exterminate Tsukiyama/Rosewald operation, and while Tsukiyama and Kanae are important characters, they never really played a major role in the main antagonism of the story. But the revelation of one of the most mysterious characters, Noro, a fight with the main antagonist in the story, Eto, revelations of Kaneki's past that changes everything... Would never have seen these coming considering how slow the arc started with the introduction of Ihei, Kijima, a bunch of aogiri, robed giant and all that...If only I decided to read the Fool's Journey.

Favourite moments:


 * Ihei slipping in blood, that was really well done.


 * Shimoguchi's story about his past. It was beautifully sad and underrated


 * Noroi's reveal


 * The rooftop first encounter with Tsukiyama and the helicopter on fire


 * The "it's all yours, Shirazu" moment from Urie


 * The "kill Arima" and "you are my quinque" moments


 * Eto licking Kaneki's eye


 * Furuta taking matsumae's kagune out, that was smart


 * The Karren reveal

and many others like Akira's "motherly" figure and Tsukiyama's realization about Kaneki. It was just a brilliant arc altogether.
