Reminder that if you actually believe
>Clowns leaked Anteiku into out to CCG
you need to improve your reading comprehension

So after finally reading the entire thread and all of everyone's speculah, I've decided on agreeing with some people's conclusions and have added my own:

1. Pierrot did not leak Anteiku to CCG, that was V. but they enjoy fucking around with the plot for their own amusement. So Chaotic Neutral, not Evil

2. CCG and V are working together to maintain order, but only the higher ups are aware of this.

3. Before Kanou left the CCG his first experiments were on Arima, who is the original human-turned-ghoul. He's so strong that he doesn't need to use Kagune and/or he uses Quinque to avoid suspicion. This is why he had that look of empathy before suitcasing Kaneki.

Arima and Kaneki have the same birthday. Does this have any significance?

>>113640055
Probably not. It's just there to thicken the plot or something like that. Could mean something like rebirth or renewal.

>>113640055
Maybe

>>113639826

Yeah screencap is far more plausible. The pierrot just seem like hedonist trolls; clown likely only targeted Rize for some sweet deal he was offered by Kanou and co without much thought to it, and to prevent her from eating all their easy meals in the ward. The massive shockwaves this caused was just some unexpected bonus entertainment.

>>113640055
>>113639953
There's also the premature white hair.

>>113640055
Yeah, kaneki was a clone.

>>113640055

The better question might be to ask is if Ishida really has used any rd herrings yet? How closely does he follow Chekov's gun mentality in his writing?

;_;

>>113640170
This I think is bullshit. Kaneki's just a normal kid, who has childhood memories of a mother and father. To make those fake would completely negate the importance of his mother's unwise self-sacrifice mirroring his own.

>>113639649
Wait, he's wearing a SHIRT?

Is ishida sensei's last tweet significant? It said somthing about sleep and kaneki said his salvation was sleep

>>113640252
He said his salvation was the happy dreams in sleep.

I am actually legit crying right now.
Give me some healing /a/

>>113640234
>who has childhood memories of a mother and father.

Well technically he doesn't remember his father but I get what you're saying

>>113640234
Not if she was a the surrogate mother and she raised him.

>>113640286
Kaneki is dead. He's been healed, Anon. You should rejoice, for his suffering hath ended by the hands of our Lord and Savior, Arima.

>>113639649
At least we now know who's in the black rabbit mask.

>>113640286
Crying at our own inability to protect Kaneki is all we can do.

If only we'd been stronger.

>>113639953

1. Clowns just like to laugh, which is their natural traits. Why blaming them for all the deeds they haven't done.
2. V maybe involved in this but who know what flip shits they may do.
3. >Kanou experimented on Arima
>what?

>>113640277
Yeah but both have to do with sleep. It's odd that was the final tweet

>>113640340
Oh yeah because it's not like everyone knew it was Ayato the second the black rabbit appeared.

>>113640352

But aren't we just protecting ourselves? We're selfish. We only want to protect Kaneki because we don't want to be alone.

>>113640475
This isn't tragedy, Kaneki saying it doesn't make this story one you faggot.

Also excusing shit ending because it's tragedy is dumb.

Kill yourself, that won't be a tragedy to anyone because no one loves you.

>>113640355
Well don't forget Kanou used to work for the CCG before he defected. Whatever it is that he learned about them (likely V and CCG collaboration), he decided to side with Aogiri against them.

So, do you think Kaneki was really the first time he had ever experimented on Human/Ghoul hybrids? He had to have experience somewhere. The fact that Arima is so ungodly powerful as a human for no explained reason is kind of strange. That, and the shared birthday and the premature white hair, and I have to wonder if Arima isn't Kaneki's predecessor.

>>113640530

Not at all.
I'm fucking sick of /a/'s retardation. Some genius threw the word "tragedy" out there and every anon and their moms are jumping on it like hyenas on carcasses. But ask one if they have any knowledge on tragedies and they'll all say no.

>>113640563

What's so hard about you guys being in denial? Deal with it, they are just hedonist troll, not evil like tumblr and manga fag who can't read do.

It's sad to see their being clowns but the fandom is taking it too far that it's actually trash now.

>>113640630
>is that a joke translation?
It's probably a "bad" translation. Their masks and actions fall under the category of traditional clowns.

The only one that could be called a Pierrot is Nico for having a tragic clown mask.

The fact that Kanou experiment something before doesn't mean it's Arima. Kanou defected from CCG 4 years ago so it didn't match with how godly Arima was in Uta's flashback. Hell Arima was strong already in Tokyo Jack.

His white hair is just the result of stress after loosing his comrades and intense battles against ghouls.

Literal definition of Tragedy.
If the shoe fits...

>>113640613
Accelerated through torture. Maybe Kaneki's transformation would've happened slower naturally over time, but being broken and healed and broken again over and over sped up the process.

>>113640776
Hmm, the timeline does kind of weaken my argument, but we don't really know how long Kanou was with the CCG, so it could just as easily mean he's been doing Human/Ghoul stuff for a lot longer than initially implied.

I just watched the anime and they left out a lot of details. Fucking pierrot studio should burn in hell.

I fucking swear. If Kaneki gets freed or gets any help from anyone with Yamori, I'll lose it.

Where were you? I saw Kaneki get healed.

Everyone else is still fucked until Arima comes around and heals them all, though.

>>113640720
>for those who forgot what was basically said in chapter 1
Chapter 1 also said that Kaneki has a destiny. Except now Yet he didn't fulfill any sort of destiny whatsoever, unless of course his destiny was just to die and have the manga continue without him. But that's generally not how destiny works in literature (manga included).
Let's take this further. Kaneki himself was the one who said something about how his life would be a tragedy if it was made into a novel. But Kaneki is apparently dead, so how could he articulate that analysis of his life? Does this prove that Kaneki is 100% alive?
No, none of these mean jackshit. Reminder that Kaneki also said that he's just a normal guy and not the protagonist of a story, except he is.

>>113640904
There was no downfall concerning Kaneki though (death is not downfall). You can argue that becoming a half-ghoul was a downfall in the first place, but at the point where we are in the manga it's simply not true, that declaration of Kaneki's was valid for the very beginning of the story where he thought he would become a murderous monster. The only way it can maybe concern the story again is if Kaneki did eat Hide.
Also, your definition is extremely simplistic as it glosses over the thematical work or the moral messages of the genre. Not that those are always present, but a story simply about bad things happening to a character over and over just because is not tragedy, it's misery.
When you think "tragedy" you have to define what sort of tragic model you're talking about. The classical Greek model? The more modern ones? Keep in mind that there is debate over whether or not more modern works are actually tragedies or not. In everyday language "tragedy" simply means something bad, just like how "drama" means conflicts between people, except the 2 words have completely different definitions in the field of literature.
We can further this discussion if you can analyze why TG is a tragedy and of what kind.

If you haven't read the Iron Knight oneshot it's pretty good. Granted the actual series sucks complete shit.
Tail Star was on track for this same kind of principle but it stopped getting translated for like a year and only recently has a chapter come out.

>>113641409
If he really was selfless, he wouldn't have fought, simple as that. Thinking he's some sort of superman that can fix everything and ignoring pretty much everyone's warnings makes him more selfish if anything, with the pretense that he's just trying to help both worlds

>>113641534
>Autism Lord and crazy talking case
Fucking lucky Arima. I wish I had my own Kanekicase. Would still fund it

>>113641420
I don't have any really strict definitions. I'm looking at things mainly from the scope of classical tragedy and the few modern works I'm familiar with. My definitions mean nothing, I might be looking at things wrong. But so far I haven't seen any actual explanation of TG as a tragedy other than "life sucked and then he is kill", and again, that has nothing to do with the literature-related definition of the word.

I just don't think we should be talking on the subject until the official release of the final chapter and receiving worded confirmation that the story is over and there won't be anything concerning the TG universe again.
Because if we do, then we should also say something like "Tokyo Ghoul is a tragedy, it's also a shitty story that crashes its development and literally ends with the author saying 'xD i troled u did you rike it'".

>>113641706
Arima is autistic, he reads everything to do with ghouls and Kaneki Ken was declared missing and of possible link to Binge Eater.

>>113641044
Kaneki Dildo

>>113641564
So if he was selfless he would've sat back and did nothing? He wasn't completely selfless, because it was partially to satisfy himself, but then again who can be considered completely selfless?

>>113641580
What major mistake or sin did he commit that led to his downfall? He's not perfect (because he was quite insane), but the only reason why he "died" is because he tried to save his friends and ran into Arima.

>>113641694
Committing suicide and avenging his best friend at the same time. That sounds viable.

Fairly certain he comes back to life some how. He died waaaay too anticlimactically for an MC.

>>113641813
>too anticlimactically for an MC.
He pulled some of the craziest shit we've seen him do against Arima. 6 giant tentacles, getting stabbed through the brain and eye and continuing to fight.

The only thing he didn't do was go Centipede, which probably would've been worse considering more firepower is worse than more sanity against Arima.

>>113641813
That's the point. Special snowflake MC? Doesn't matter, have a fuck you.

>Uta (and the rest of the Clown Mask gang) planned it. He planned it all along. In the pursuit of entertainment, he manipulated Kaneki's entire tragedy, so that the innocent Kaneki would be broken, twisted, and hurt beyond repair - and finally come to suit his mask. All in the name of "fun".

It's also possible it ends with his own friends having to put him down.

I still have no idea what happened to kaneki... looks like he became Arima's quinque, but then Eto said they would make kaneki again, and touka has faith in him so she believes he's still alive? Maybe i'm just being dumb and in denial, the suffering is just too great

I bet they had to fold Kaneki thousand times to stuff him in that case.

The Clowns really didn't do that much. They enjoy watching Kaneki's suffering and that does make them assholes, but overall they did little.

Hell, even if was just for fun, they saved Kaneki from Rize and gave Rize was she deserved.

As for bad things, they probably just spread Kaneki's information around. Otherwise, what the hell did they even do that was bad toward Kaneki? It's still implied Shinohara and V tipped off the CCG for Anteiku.

I don't think Tokyo Ghoul, as a world, is even close to over.
I do think that Kaneki's story has ended, though, and that's why I feel we can have this conversation. Kaneki's story is what I believe to be a tragedy.

The concept of a literary tragedy across the ages is far more complex than can be learned from a few minutes on wikipedia, but let's go with a simpler and more general Greek definition: "Tragedy is, therefore, an imitation (mim?sis) of a noble and complete action [...] which through compassion and fear produces purification of the passions."

Mimesis and catharsis are complex enough concept on their own, but from my (very simple) understanding, mimesis is the recreation, imitation, or portrayal of something, and catharsis is a cleansing of all the negative emotions that built up along the way, meant to resonate with the audience.

A more liberal interpretation of the above definition is that a tragedy can be the story of the best intentions with horrible consequences + catharsis, which is exactly what happened with Kaneki.
Stop me right now if I'm wrong, else I will continue.

Because the fandom can't take the idea that Uta is a big boss so they try to blame him for everything that happened to "our precious babu Kaneki".
Kaneki is suffering ~ so laughing at him is a big no-no , and everyone who do that is labeled as "assholes" and that particular aashole just tick fandom's jimmick so much that they went full retarded over him.

Deal with it, Kaneki got into all this mess because of himself, just like how Touka said to him.

So can we confirm that Amon is actually captured by Aogiri?

>>113641754
>>113642137
We all know Kaneki has lived an unfortunate life since the very beginning. We all know of how his mother worked herself to death because she could not choose between Kaneki and her sister. We all know what happened on the night he walked home with Rize.

After that particular incident, Kaneki initially tried to find a place to belong, being a freak of nature. He did carve out a tenuous niche, one constantly threatened by outside factors. First, his only friend, Hide, was threatened - he resolved that by overcoming the obstacle, Nishio. Then he grew close to the Fuegichis and Touka, and not only did he need to protect them, he tried to bridge the gap between humans and ghouls through his contact with Amon. That's an enormous task, yet it took it up by himself, and actually managed to succeed to that end in this instance. Never do we question why he feels the need to do so, because his actions all sound perfectly reasonable, yes? Hide was his lifelong friend. Hinami was just a kid who had lost her parents, almost like Kaneki.

Later, he felt the need to protect Nishio and Kimi against the Gourmet. We can understand why, right? Though Nishio treated Kaneki terribly, he and Kimi were living proof that the gap between humans and ghouls could be closed. That there could be an understanding between two species that had been at odds for a time nobody seems to know. Even if Kaneki didn't realize this, we, the readers, were meant to.

Then Kaneki was captured by Aogiri.

>>113642287
>Kaneki got into all this mess because of himself
You can't blame him for wanting to fuck Rize. You can't expect every girl who reads books in a coffee shop to be a literal man-eater.
Getting turned into a ghoul was just bad luck.
Tsukyiama liking hm was also bad luck.
And he was literally just trying to work in a coffee shop when Yamori abducted him.

After that, the rest is his fault, though.

>>113641681
Like I said, a hilarious trainwreck.

Yes I agree so can everyone stops blaming the clown now because it just shows how little reading you do?

What happens if you eat a Quinque?

>>113642525
It's just Rc cells, so nothing. Kaneki did and turned out relatively as sane as he was before it. Which isn't saying much.

>>113642525
Good luck digesting it.

In Yamori's torture chambers, we are shown Kaneki's memories of early childhood. He guides us through his life, showing how his mother had died by stretching herself too thin. Here, Kaneki is shown admiring and respecting her for working so hard. But Rize, who is solely a product of his imagination, is questioning whether that was the right choice. Kaneki at this point has already realized subconsciously the error of his mother's ways.
>"Instead of becoming a person who hurts others, become a person that gets hurt"? Are you really okay with that kind of thinking?
>But you might have to throw away that precious friend of yours, too.
Rize may be the one we see talking, but again: she isn't real. These thoughts belong to Kaneki alone.
Yet even after this exchange that shows that he knew why being like his mother was a bad idea, he failed to act on it.

He failed to choose, and thus lost everything.

You could make a case for the sequence that follows, of Kaneki "taking Rize's strength for his own" being cathartic, but this isn't over yet.

The only answers this chapter gives is that Uta and co. are responsible for almost everything that happened to Kaneki. Ayato is black rabbit and yoshimura is new test subject.

Kaneki got squished like a pathetic little worm and Amon even died offscreen.
If there's no part 2 with Kaneki and Amon being alive I will go on a rampage and never forgive Ishida.

>>113642602
I don't know but you normally are made to feel that the manga is about to reach an ending, unlike Tokyo Trainwreck.

>>113642758
I don't go there, I just know that the idiots who are devastated over this - like the guys who made that petition - are from Tumblr. I saw how the SnK fanbase was taken over by them, I know their stench.

>>113641754
Now Kaneki is strong. Now he has the power to protect his friends. Isn't that great? So it's not a crazy line of thinking to believe that it's reasonable to do so, right? Only Kaneki's baggage has grown, with Banjou and Tsukiyama joining him. But it's alright, isn't it? Both of them are completely loyal now. Tsukiyama has his strength and connections, and Banjou is too likeable.

Now Kaneki is on the prowl for some answers about Kanou. Only it's not that simple. He's cut himself off from Touka, and no longer puts Hinami on the field. His lack of contact with Touka has its negative effects on her boiling over in chapter 120. Hinami, rather than being able to help Kaneki like she'd be happy to, is downgraded to just dead weight. But again: Kaneki's actions aren't completely unreasonable. Touka wanted to go to college, and associating with a "dangerous" ghoul like Kaneki would be detrimental for that. Hinami is just a kid. She doesn't need to be on the battlefield - she needs to be protected, and Kaneki has the strength to do it, so why not?

But then he meets Orca, and his perception of his own relative power is shattered. He was very lucky to escape alive, twice even. Recall how Orca asked whether to kill him, as if swatting a bug. This should have served as a warning to Kaneki, but he did not pay heed, and neither did the reader. It'd all work out if he just read more kung fu books, sparred with Tsukiyama, and ate more ghouls, right?

Then we reach the final arc, and number of Kaneki's treasured people has expanded yet again, this time to include the rest of Anteiku. And why would he not help them? Koma and Irimi were so kind to him early on in the series. Yoshimura gave Kaneki his new life, and wasn't his own story so very sad? So it'd be natural to extend a helping hand to them in a time of need, wouldn't it?

Except he has furigana for each "eat", them being "take," "protect," "part/lose," "err/wrong/mistake." They keep adding "I" when he started the list with "we".
I personally would have translated the list as something like
>We can only eat, only take.

Kaneki tries to help. Not just in any way, no. In his own heroic fashion, suddenly arriving on the scene and saving the day. At the same time, he's again shouldering the task of trying to forge an understanding between humans and ghouls by aiming only for quinque. From what we know, this endeavor amounts to nothing but his own death.

In spite of knowing that it was a bad idea, instead of listening to the various warnings, despite everything, Kaneki repeated his mother's mistake. Ten times over. He didn't listen to Touka telling him that being like that was incredibly selfish. He didn't listen to Tsukiyama's tear-stained begging that was so very innocent and childlike. He failed to choose, and overextended himself, and paid the heaviest price.

Every step of the way, we agreed with his actions. We thought it nice that he protect his friends. We thought it nice that he tried to convince humans that ghouls are just people too. We thought it nice when he was strong enough to do so decisively. We thought it reasonable when he said he had an obligation to help the doomed Anteiku three. He was only doing what any sane, caring human being would do in his place. That is the "mimesis".

In chapter 140, he fully realizes that he has repeated his mother's mistake of playing the saint, and breaks down. But he accepts this. The "true" Kaneki cares not that he made this mistake, because it's all over. There will be no more suffering on account of others.

If the writer's intention is really just to fuck with the readers, it can happen.
But to be perfectly honest it's a terrible ending, and not because Kaneki dies. Some of the best stories ever written end with the MCs dying, it's just not handled like this.
If there's a sequel, Kaneki appearing in it or not, the ending will be saved.

To be noted though, the ToC doesn't list this chapter as ???. I know from checking out the 81 diver series that it -should-.

The problem with TG being a Tragedy, is that usually, every thing ends with the MC dying. There is no "what was X?" or "Why show Y if you are not telling about this anymore?". This is not Tragedy, this is abrupt ending.

Kaneki's story, Kaneki's arc is a tragedy.

Why show them? Again, again, again, there's more to the world of Tokyo Ghoul than just Kaneki. I'm a firm believer that it will continue with a new main character.

>>113643447
No, it doesn't mean anything. All the comments are like that.
>You guys aren't human!
>I'm quitting being human!
It's just random shit.

>>113643487

Thanks!

>>113643568
>I'm a firm believer that it will continue with a new main character
I'm 100% okay if this happens. I'll even accept Kaneki's dead if this was just a prologue of something big. I was expecting something bad for Kaneki since chapter one, but finishing the serie here and now is not what I expected.

>>113643561
>Kaneki didn't even scratched him even a little bit

But that's exactly what he did

>>113643561
>Kaneki didn't even scratched him even a little bit

He did, Kaneki was the only ghoul who managed to scratch Arima, hooray big victory!.

Sequel with new MC?

>>113643669
Yes, Amon.
Of all the living characters, he is the most likely candidate.

>>113643520

Everyone else beside Kaneki will get a shitstorm that's for sure.
I will still read it though since Kaneki is not the main reason I'm into TG.

>>113643669
Can't you count? 12 new MCs, 10 of which will probably be fuck-up Owls.

Get ready to see success Amon and failure Takizawa and Chino.

Next series wont be a tragedy because Uta said so.
Thank GOD, i dont think i could live with that much suffering again

>>113643243
>????????
>I have the high ground.
It's Obi-Wan's lines.

>>113643669
All this page leads you to believe is that they fucking harvested the wounded CCGs on the battlefield to use on their experiments, also the whole talk about missing people, sadly Kaneki has nothing to prove he's not dead.

I have a feeling that this entire shitstorm with
>muh plot points
>muh kaneki alive ;_;
>muh new mc

Is exactly what Ishida wanted with the anime ending and the manga selling pretty well. Perfect time to start the continuation really.

He just wants some of the jew gold.

When is a sequel usually announced?

>>113643421
This. And this >>113643520

Well, it would work if Amon became the MC I guess. TG was interesting to me because the MC did his best to stay pure and tried to reconcile the 2 worlds. If it just focused on some shitty genocide monster (of either side) it'd be shit.

>>113643798
He'd get his jew golds by just continuing TG normally really. But still you're right.

>>113643798
I don't know. I want to believe the whole chapter 72 title thing is premeditated

>>113643783
>sadly Kaneki has nothing to prove he's not dead.
Aside from that he was talking all chapter.

We aren't exactly sure what makes a black case quinque. Like for example, Narukami in Uta's flashback was a black case.
All we know is he got a new one, which would be either from Irimi, Koma, or Kaneki.

But how long does a quinque take to make? Mado got Hinami's mother's pretty fast, but Juuzou's scythe took like 6 months. All the stuff in 143 seems to be literally the next afternoon, not even a full 24 hours later.

>>113643783
Yes, that is what you were meant to gather. Amon is now a test subject, but Kaneki is dead.
>Amon targets only Quinque when fighting investigators, just like Kaneki did
>has a confrontation with Arima
>recognizes the centipede and breaks down, crying

I have a feeling we'll definitely see Kaneki again just because of the last page with Touka.

>>113643836
If you seriously think Kaneki's quinque isn't in that final black case you are incredibly oblivious or willfully ignorant.

Why don't they just kill him?
I'm not a /sci/ guy and all but can he still survive that like 0.000001 chance?
I mean for what purpose are they still keeping him alive?

So that family members can say goodbye and then unplug the machine. Didn't they say that it was impossible for him to survive anyway?

>>113643107
Kaneki was doomed from the beginning.

>>113643838
>has a kagune type which doesn't suit him (manager's)
>confrontation with Arima

Do you want him to die again?

>>113643884
He's one of the last strong humans other than Arima. They're pretty fucked if he doesn't wake up.

>you will never see the original japanese version of this spread
>you will never see a properly executed english version of this spread
I'm seriously impressed that the chinks went through all that trouble, but it's saddening all the same.

I have a feel if there is a sequel/continuation, we will get a bastard revival of Kaneki via some implant - kaneki was unusually powerful as said by Kanou plus we know quinque can be sentiel. Or even crazier, a Arima merged with Kaneki (definitely doable). That said, I am fine about Kaneki off for good though, if this whole 143 chapters of TG is merely a giant prologue.

>>113643824
It can still be premeditated it could imply any number of things.
like
"this PART of the story is over"
or "now while we wonder if kaneki is kill we see other shit for a while, find out he's alive and rescue arc"
or even 3deep5me "end of kaneki tragedy but now he's reborn as ghoul jesus was meant to be and the healing can finally begin."
"kaneki is kill and we get new mc" pls no kill ;_;
all these things are variations on the premise of he planed this entire part of the story
At this point we don't really know

>>113643938
>The curtain rises on the tragedy
the real ride has yet to even begin
though if there is a continuation, it won't necessarily be longer than this "prologue"

>>113643824
But chapter 72's title meant something like "part" (part of something) or "half" as in "half a year has passed". It didn't mean halfway, the fucking retarded translators have done a terrible job again.

>>113643884
They should give him ghoul surgery.

>>113643924
We've seen the Japanese version of the spread. It's not hard to find. And the chinks were lazy in redrawing the spread. I can see obvious clone stamp strokes.

>>113643967
No, the translators are the masterminds behind this

>>113643967
Nah I reread it today. It was in reference to Kaneki telling Ayato that he would half kill him. Which he pretty much did.

>>113643991
The cleaning was shit, but the typesetting was impressive imo.

>>113643967
I think you're overthinking the chapter title. As long as it has the word "half" of any variety in it, people would've jumped on it.

>>113643989
The ghoul surgery is for amon.

Autismo anon here. I'd argue Ishida planned all of this.

No, Ishida has definitely been meta with chapters/volumes before. I have some examples saved.

What is being half killed again? Having 103 bones broken. Not convinced? There's more.

How would you feel about a fanservice-filled sequel called Tokyo Pool?

If Kaneki was the protag who was the deuter?

How many push-ups would a ghoul Amon be able to do?

Finally, Arima's oddly specific wording that became a joke.

>>113644082
>>113644126
>>113644126
Make all that a picture please

>>113644126
I'd still argue that "7" and "13" aren't obvious enough for what Ishida does. His 12s on Kaneki are blatant, his 2 on Touka, the 15 on Seidou, right in your face. Those are subtle as fuck and could literally be coincidence.

>>113644146
Do that again with the full images included, please.

>>113644166
>His 12s on Kaneki are blatant, his 2 on Touka, the 15 on Seidou
Not on mine. What is this?

I don't know how to feel about this. It doesn't make sense anyway.

>>113643686
>living
You have read nothing at all, have you?

>>113644157
I definitely think v14 was intentional. The second "v14" on that page is actually just "14" as well, just in Arima's attack-name style.

Also, that black Narukami case.

>>113644166
Well, Kaneki was literally full of sevens before.

>>113644188
Kaneki's 12 is the most important of those, so I'll post that next. Seidou's 15 is in the chapter where the investigators are writing their wills - he breaks down and starts crying, and a 15 forms from his tears.

Dunno about Touka's 2 though.

>Japan's elite actually recruit people who are fucked in the head, act like children, don't comply with rules and injure the normal humans they're supposed to be protecting

Bravo Ishida!
