Tokyo Ghoul Theory PT1: Half Ghoul>Ghoul​

---

Alright I hope that I am able to do as many of these theories as I intend on, so much intel has been coming through with these last two chapters regarding RC Cells and the nature of Ghouls that I really can't stop thinking about it. If you haven't already watched these I urge you all to watch Chibi Reviewer's Analysis on the last two chapters. They are long, but in these videos he discusses some pretty exciting theories that anyone that is a fan of Tokyo Ghoul would enjoy

Ok now down to business. Now we all have seen Half Ghouls and they seem to be more deadly than their the original ghouls that their transplant came from. Well first I would like you to think of a Kakuhou as a fungus, but not just any fungus. Cordyceps

When a Cordyceps fungus attacks a host, the mycelium invades and eventually replaces the host tissue, but that is not all this fungus actually goes so far as to hijack the insects brain so that the insect positions itself in a place beneficial for the fungus to grow.

Now what happens when a human become a ghoul?

Tissue replacement-ones body becomes harder, stronger, sensory abilities such as hearing and smell increase just like a ghoul, one even becomes physically unable to digest human food.

Mind Hijacking-ones cravings for food is altered and when one does not satisfy his hunger a ghoul is driven insane to the point where they will attack.

No matter what way you slice it the properties of the effected human seem to be altered to be able to hunt and supply the Kokuhou with more RC cells via feeding on humans.

But that is no different than Ghouls right???

Well here is the difference. From what we half seen so far humans seem more susceptible to the influence of their Kokuhou.
[Insert Takizawa, Kaneki/Haise, and Urie going bat sh*t crazy]
We have seen Owl and Jason, and neither when in critical condition like Kaneki, Urie, or Takizawa. I hypothesize that this maybe because natural ghouls aren't as effected by their Kakuhou and this not only apparent on a mental level, but a physical level as well.

How?

Notice how even though Jason underwent the same kind kind of torture as Kaneki and even had a half Kakuzu Jason's healing still was much slower than Kaneki's. This means that what the doctor said about regeneration increasing a Kokuhou's pathways only applies to Half Ghouls. So the more a Half Ghoul heals the more influence they get from their Kokuhou, increasing their physical ability as well as their healing.


In closing Half Ghouls overall progress much faster than normal ghouls and have higher overall potential

And that is it for Part One. I hope you guys enjoyed it and in Part 2 I will explain how RC cells are like the Philosopher Stones from FMA =D

I like this theory; great info on the cordyceps fungi. +1

"The more you get hurt, the stronger you become."

Tissue replacement-ones body becomes harder, stronger, sensory abilities such as hearing and smell increase just like a ghoul, one even becomes physically unable to digest human food.

Major injuries = power-ups.

Slowly but surely...

Arima > everyone

Kaneki will surpass Arima though

 

[Ciao]

Kaneki will surpass Arima though

maybe but im not 100% convinced yet
Arima's skills are unrivaled and hes just a human. Even with kagune, ghouls and hybrids can't compete. Arima is too strong.

That is the point of the Q's and when Kaneki eventually defects it is going to be Arima that is going to be sent after him so if Kaneki can't hold his ground he will be screwed.

Besides limits are meant to be surpassed

I don't think Kaneki is going to leave the Q's. I think the Q's (other than Urie) will be open to allying with Hinami, Touka, and Yomo and form another group.

From the recent chapter where we found out the purpose of Re: it seems rather clear that at some point Kaneki will have no place to turn to and that is when Touka and the rest will be there for him.

I know it is going to happen eventually otherwise Hinami will die so at that point Kaneki will probably take Hinami with him, but Kaneki taking the Q's along seems rather unlikely

Nice, I like how this section gets more active and creative =D
