IE, Breakers & Breakers the new wave. feng shen ji. i think its a new way for writers & authors to deal with writers block or you end up having authors be like george r martin, hunter x hunter & bleach that need inevitable long hiatuses or the content starts becoming bad.
either that or we're pulling a dexter, that's all folks!
on another note here's a bunch of things i've noticed as messages in the "final chapter" of this ark
- page 1 coincides wtih page 15. where the introduction is "the pursued shadow is no longer there, & as a result no longer in this world, kaneki is then shown to be erased through a report by arima himself. if kaneki is deemed dead, he has the ability to start a new life in pursuit of the real antagonist the clown gang. the guy who everyone thinks is dead, has the last laugh what a twist it could be!
- the use of the word wrong on 2 pages, page 3 & 8 are in bold, suspiciously.
- on page 2 there are 2 statement's the first being "the world is....." which most would conclude the next page was to fill in that statement, on the bottom right the words are "and so we head to the end." where wrong could be attributed to the statement so we come to an end.
- bottom of page 8 is literally a 1 panel look at banjou & that little girl who he was taking care of where it also says WROnG prior to what seems to be a scene where they're supposed to meek kaneki at a certain location or they're given a number to identify a dead body. (Correct me if i'm wrong)
- shinohara's wife on page 13 is shown to be smiling....suggesting either she's going to be an antagonist or has a has an affiliation with kanou in reviving him. the lead-in message before this was "and my salvation is......" the next page is blank.
wrong is also used prior to the scene of vegatative state shinohara.
- arima never finishes off the people he has a hard time against. not to mention the first page....you'll die you know suggest he's on the brink of death or going to live. in manga as far as i'm concerned no one is truly dead until you see their body and is confirmed dead, but naruto's author believes otherwise.
- the ambiguity in the wording of itori's last statement, is kaneki dead? according to my information...large possibility to be wrong.
- dr.kanou being told he has alot of test subjects, behind him are multiple owls being created aka new bosses. the possibility of also making ghoul investigators into ghouls! what a twist!
- most of the other messages already posted, like touka's shirt,
- a possible lead-in to season 2 being that touka is the main protagonist, in attempts to confirm or revive kaneki.

Hot god fucking damnit.
So Kaneki becomes CCG experiment while it's implied that Amon gets Yoshimura's koukahou implanted? The investigator with the sturdy body is DEFINITLY him, him being remade "as kaneki" is... odd but then again, it means that he'd have understood Kaneki, since he'd face the same dilemmas.
But oh boy, let's see if we got sequel stuff:
The chaotic neutral / dont know wtf they want in the clowns
The don't know if they're evil-ish in aogiri.
Kaneki being made into Arima's weapon or an Arima like entity (some people theorize that he's too strong for him to be completely human)
Then there's TOuka and YOmo and what agenda they might have, Yomo has a plan and he might rescue Yoshimura like he did with Rize..
Then there's poor Banjou and Hinami, I feel like they need a hug
where exactly do you read these interpretations? i'd like to know....
