    Arima was "old", blind, had ghoul diabetes and shht and STILL whooping everyone. His mantle passing to Suzuya is what made "The New Reaper" so threatening; it was a testament to how strong Arima was and Suzuya had become. It was painful seeing how kind he could be to Haise, but thats after he stabbed him in the head. The only other time Kaneki would be defeated that bad he was facing TWO Aratas. So yeah, Arima strong.

      @crammothy 3 дня назад +276

      And Kaneki was very nerfed himself when he faced those two Aratas. He was suffering from the same things Arima was + starvation as they didn’t have much food. The only version of Kaneki that is definitely stronger than an Arima at the peak of his health + how skilled and experienced he was before his death is the final version of Kaneki who isn’t really human nor ghoul anymore and could use all types of Kagune. Honestly those versions of Arima and Kaneki teaming up could probably solo the rest of the verse in a 2vEveryone. Also I just realized how if Kaneki has another kid post his mutation, that kid will probably be the peak lifeform as his daughter is a perfect half ghoul that can eat human food, and Kaneki isn’t really human or ghoul anymore so it’s honestly scary what a second Kaneki child could be.

    Tokyo Ghoul is pretty much a shonen but “realistic” in the ways that morality and characters are depicted. So it makes sense that “the strongest” in that series is easily one of the best versions of “the strongest” we have ever seen. His decision to team up with Eto, the #1 enemy of the CCG at the time, in order for a better world is great and I just realized that Gojo was accused of working with the #1 enemy of Jujutsu sorcerers as the reason for the higher ups to justify making it illegal to unseal him.

I think thats why kaneki saw arima as beautiful in the beginning and till the end. Happy ken saw Arima as what he needed to be to save everyone, a force of death. And depressed kaneki saw arima as what he wanted, a way to death.

    Arima vs Kaneki to me teaches us that to protect other you must protect yourself first.

    Tokyo Ghoul is always the story about Kaneki Ken. His morals are always being tested and challenged forcing him to change his Ideals, his method, his emotions, his personalities.
    But what Arima did is shoves the Answer Right infront of Kaneki and helps him...Accept who he truly is.
    Because that is what a father does. "They do what's Best for there Children".

    Let's make one thing clear: Arima kills himself only AFTER Kaneki defeats him, by completely destroying his quinque and leaving him unarmed. Arima didn't "throw" the match: he lost, fair and square. Which is what gave him hope that Kaneki was ready to move forward and fulfill his dream.
    EDIT: I can't understand if a lot of people here have never actually read the manga, or just have terrible reading comprehension.
    Yes: Arima could have killed Kaneki numerous times, in the first half of the fight...which is the same half where Kaneki also wasn't fighting seriously. Arima didn't kill him PRECISELY because he knew Kaneki was holding himself back the whole time. Why was Kaneki holding back?
    1: Because he didn't want to kill Arima.
    2: Because he had a defeatist attitude, didn't think he could win to begin with, and just fought Arima to stall him and give his friends time to escape.
    3: Because he didn't value his own life to begin with, and just saw himself as a disposable asset.
    But in the second half the fight, when Kaneki resolves to fight seriously, and to actually try to win...he wraps up the duel in a couple of moves.
    In the second half, when BOTH of them are actually serious, Kaneki wins. The whole reason why Arima felt comfortable enough to kill himself and pass the torch, is because he was defeated: which proved to him that Kaneki was strong enough to become the One Eyed King, and change the world.

      @@Christo_Trismegistus Both of them were holding back. Arima didn't want to kill Kaneki and Kaneki didn't want to kill Arima. Arima let Kaneki live all of those times in the fight because he wanted to see his resolve. He wanted to see if Kaneki had the strength and was capable of committing to beating him. So when he saw that Kaneki not only had the strength to beat him but the kindness to not kill him, Arima took his life to end the stalemate. It's really beautiful because the thing Arima hated the most was himself. This was because he could only destroy, he never had the kindness or gentle nature to subdue something but keep it alive. It was really Kaneki's win that he survived long enough to find his resolve to seriously go all out on Arima.

    Man, you're the GOAT, the video was extremely interesting to watch, and at the same time it made me rethink in my head many of those moments with Arima. I've read TG and TG:Re back to back twice, and it's one of my favorite pieces of art ever. And after your video, I might read it once again, maybe I will spot something new for myself.
    Thank you so much for such dope vid. I will be hoping there will be more from you about Tokyo Ghoul

      He was born from a ghoul and a human , he says this in the anime that one eyed ghouls are extremely rare usually the baby is just super human with no ghoul abilities and it gives them a illness arima was blind in one of his eyes because of this , his lifespan was also shortened because of this which is why he has white hair in his late 20's

      @@davidgummo3024 I think you're wrong on some things, It's been 4+ years since I read it but if I remember, he was part of an experimental group of children from a place called the sunlit garden, these children were all genetically modified half ghoul half human attempts adn we're kept super secretive by the washuu family (CCG Leaders), some were full human genetically powerful like Arima and the pink girl (At the cost of a shorter lifespan) and some became full on ghouls like Rize/furuta. There's only 3 one eyed ghouls that were natural in the show, eto, kaneki himself, and his child, any other one eye was some sort of experiment like the quinxs/kaneki clown clones.

      Especially considering thats a mixed question of genetics/destiny and identity/sense of being
      Arima was a half-human who maximized his immense potential in spite of his shortened lifespan and aging.
      He was ALWAYS bodily nerfed yet bec of that, in JJK terms, heavenly restriction, like Toji, Arima was ridiculously strong but he was diff from the other half humans like V and, thematically, Furuta
      Yea Furuta was strong in his own right but he dwelled in his nihilism and misery and that despair did not make him grow in strength or as a person
      He was indeed a clown and that childlike being (I am Six Years Old poem) is what makes him Kaneki's dark half

      What ive been preaching for years - the tokyo ghoul manga is a timeless masterpiece, and it's very unfortunate the series gets horrible rep from the horrendous anime adaptation. The mediocre animation aside, the studio went as far as to change entire plot points from the original source. What is actually a mature, gruesome and tragic story filled with interesting characters and concepts ends up being an edgy show that almost everyone dismisses because it's cringe, and it's sad because if the entirety of tokyo ghoul was reanimated today by a competent studio, it would be easily as popular as the likes of attack on titan. Very unfortunate, but please give the manga a shot, nothing to regret
