^ I don't think "the new Yoshimura" is that literal. Rather, I think it means in terms of the role he played during the series. I think in saying that Touka is the "new Yoshimura", it's meant to show how she has grown into someone that creates a safe haven for others and tries to act as a moderate, peaceful example of how Ghouls can live. There's a good chance that :Re, like Anteiku, is a safe place for Ghouls to gather and provides community and companionship as well as help to those in need.

Really, Touka's entire story has been about her moving away from violence and trying to find a better way to live. She wanted to learn more about the origins of Ghouls, and recognizes the common ground that humans and ghouls share. She's part of the future hope for peace.
