Talk:Re: Chapter 86/@comment-27662613-20160724184942

Hey guys; just read the chapter. I usually hate to be that guy, especially because I see that almost everyone here seems to have thoroughly enjoyed it, but it really wasn’t like that for me. My excitement was at an all-time low and there’s stuff that doesn’t absolutely make sense to me.

Arima being the OEK was something the fandom had been speculating about for long so it didn’t exactly strike me as an unexpected revelation, even though Eto kinda making a pact with Arima was somewhat cool I guess. Yet, what they seemed to have agreed on doesn’t make sense. Basically, the One-Eyed-Owl and the White Reaper, the two most powerful characters in the entire Tokyo Ghoul universe, two people that deeply despised the world they lived in, agreed to wait (lol?) almost a decade for a random One-Eyed-Ghoul who happened to pass by in order to make a king out of him, the personification of their revolution, once he’d be strong enough to beat them both. I mean, I just don’t get it. Why don’t combine their power and capabilities from the start to make the world a better place, to fix it and break that twisted birdcage? Why should Kaneki succeed in what the OEO and the WR had basically never attempted? Why didn’t they act and just waited for the protagonist to do the job? As it is now, the whole thing sounds very cheap but I hope we get more insights on it with the next few chapters.

The other thing that made me almost go full-Lemongrab was how Eto’s apparent death was handled. I feel as though there’s still too much plot tied to her which would be left unsolved if she were to be dead for real. But yeah, at least we got to see Kiyoko Aura's godlike ass and I absolutely am not complaining about it.
