Feel free to copy and paste my summaries to other sites as long as you give me credit. Please keep in mind when copying and pasting that I may continue to correct errors and tweak details after it is posted.
Pg 1: Mutsuki holds up Yoriko’s hand and comments that she was uncompliant during her arrest and says that she was suspected of harboring ghouls because she knew about Touka and stayed silent. Mutsuki asks Touka to go back to the station to have a chat.
Pg 2: Touka kicks Mutsuki and Mutsuki goes flying. Touka says she’s never heard of Yoriko and clenches her fist.
Pg 3: The scene changes to Aura attacking Kaneki. He extends his kagune and attempts to stab Kaneki, Kaneki jumps to dodge him. He lands on his feet and rolls to avoid another attack.
Pg 4: Aura continues to swipe at Kaneki while Kaneki dodges. Aura steps on Kaneki’s foot and manages to land a blow. Aura smiles.
Pg 5: Kaneki tells Aura that he’s not that much of a pushover. He extends his own kagune and begins attacking Aura. He impales Aura with an attack from below.
Pg 6: Aura screams on the ground. Kaneki tells him he should have known how long it would take for the suppressants to kick in. The Oggai arrive on bicycles. Kaneki questions the bicycles and a member tells him that they are still under 18 (meaning they can’t drive cars). One member commands the others to go.
Pg 7: The Oggai launch off a building and head towards Kaneki.
Pg 8: Kaneki is knocked aside as the bicycles slam into the building. He wonders what is with their wheels. The Oggai unleash their kagune and knock Kaneki back.
Pg 9: Kaneki looks up to see Touka coming towards him. He tells her they should go. Mutsuki notices Touka and Kaneki leaving and shouts at the Oggai to chase them.
Pg 10: Mutsuki begins screaming that he/she will fucking kill them. Aura looks towards Mutsuki and the :re café appears to go up in flames.
Pg 11: Tomoe (the step-sister of the Bin Brothers from the original TG, also referred to as “Grave Robber”) is approached by Takizawa who comments that it’s probably hard for her to find food and asks if she wants him to get her some. He says that the world is getting hard for ghouls to call home. Tomoe asks Takizawa what destroys civilization and its citizens, Takizawa replies that atomic bombs do.
Pg 12: Tomoe says that Tatara used to tell her that the sense of smell is what does, because finding things by sniffing them out leads to devastation. She says that people with good noses are bad news because they are always able to eat their fill.
Pg 13: She comments that the Oggai are almost like having two deaths out there. The scene changes to the CCG.
Pg 14: Urie tells Juuzou that Furuta is calling for him. Juuzou says that he’s going to play hookey and asks Urie if he wants to join him. Urie thinks that he wants to talk to Juuzou so he agrees. Juuzou tells Urie that the situation smells the same as the 20th ward operation. He says that much blood will flow, as in the Owl operation many ghouls were killed and many investigators died.
Pg 15: Urie asks if fighting under Furuta will bring the same result. Juuzou wonders what peace even is and wonders if either ghouls or humans disappear will they have peace. He throws a paper airplane and says that he would be fine if things stayed the way that they were and he comments that they’ve all hid rather well.
Pg 16: The scene changes back to Kaneki and Touka. Kaneki says that he hopes that they’re able to meet up with everyone else. He looks towards Touka and asks her if she’s okay. She asks him about Hide and asks what he would do when he felt like seeing him. Kaneki sits down next to her.
Pg 17: Kaneki tells her that he was never able to do something concrete because when he would think like that he would be consumed by the desire to see Hide again. He apologizes for not being much help and tells her that they should rest. Touka suddenly pushes him down.
Pg 18: Touka brushes her hair back and looks towards Kaneki. She bends down and appears to kiss him.
