Eto: …So your kagune is Rize’s.
Furuta: Yep! Matching with Kaneki-kun.

A grin on Furuta’s face as he lovingly holds his own kagune.

Furuta: As expected of Rize-san’s kagune. Not fearing even the One-Eyed Owl.
Furuta: So beautiful~ ♥ Kiss, kiss.

Eto: …Disgusting.
Furuta: Nah, it’s not disgusting no matter how you look at it.

Furuta looks away from Eto.

Furuta: Alrighty, I have to go. You go drop dead appropriately.

Furuta: Well, I planned on no longer asking you who the ‘One-Eyed King’ is but… in the very least, I’ll just ignore it.
Furuta: Since it seems like I’ll be able to get 'what I want’ nicely, I’ll also beat up the One-Eyed King.
(he says sekigan kingu)

Furuta laughs as Eto stares at him.

Eto: (…)
Eto: Furuta Nimura…
Eto: “V”… Washuu doesn’t seem to care about them so how about you…?
Eto: What do you want…?

Furuta: Super/Extreme Peace.

Furuta dances away. Eto is amazed as a laugh escapes her.

Eto: …What’s up with that…“

The color cover is Arima showing only half of his face.

Blood continues to splurt from Arima’s neck as hetumbles backwards. Kaneki panics and rushes towards him.

Narration:
In this world, blood constantly continues to flow.
Both Ghouls and Investigators both lose something of the same value, a red life.

Kaneki: What….
Kaneki: ARE YOU DOING?!

Kaneki holds Arima’s body as he cries.

Arima: …I’ve always waited.
Kaneki: Arima-sa…
Arima: Listen… Kaneki Ken.

Blood flows out from Arima’s mouth.

Arima: …I didn’t have much time left. The timing was… just too early…
Arima: Me… and Hairu too…
Arima: And also Furuta… The investigators who came from the ‘Sunlit Garden’.
Arima: We are “not human”.
Kaneki: !?

Arima: …We are failed 'half-humans’ who bear mixed blood.
Kaneki: Half… humans…? That’s…
Arima: My right eye.
Arima: You’ve probably noticed it but it can barely see anything/reflect any image.
Arima: “Glaucoma”, a common disease.
Arima: …Yes, “among old people”.
Kaneki: Old… people…?

Arima: We who came from the Garden decay faster.
(decay here can also mean to be forgotten)
Arima: Even my other eye has started to lose its function. My lifespan was almost over.

Arima: We all have either 'parent as a Ghoul’.
Kaneki: …

Kaneki: (…Arima-san… Doesn’t tell jokes…)

Kaneki: …

Arima: Do you know what happens when a human and ghoul bears a child?

An image of Itori appears: “Most of them lose their lives…”

Kaneki: A One-Eyed Ghoul… They’ll become a half-ghoul…?
Arima: …Not all of them. A case like the One-Eyed Owl is rare.

Arima: The children born do not differ too much from a human.
Arima: Not all of them have a kagune, and they’re capable of eating normally.

Arima: What makes them different is that they have high physical capabilities and that they will ‘die early’.
Kaneki: Wha…
Kaneki: What’s with… that…?
Kaneki: Just for what purpose…

Arima does a small smile.

Arima: …Who knows. I don’t know the reason but…

Arima: Perhaps they wanted to become human…
Arima: Washuu (V).

Scene returns to Arima and Kaneki.

Kaneki: The Washuus… The top of the ‘CCG’… are ghouls…?

Kaneki remembers these words: “Kuzen decided to work alongside with the organization (them) thanks to 'certain ghouls’.”

Kaneki: (So the ghouls Yoshimura-san worked with… were the Washuus…?)

Kaneki: What do you wish from me… Arima-san…?
Arima: Just let it that you killed me.
Arima: Kaneki Ken.

Arima: What… I wished for… You should know that right away…
Arima: …
Arima: …Please.
Arima: This is something only you can do.

Kaneki: …
Kaneki: …….I understand.

Kaneki: I killed you.

Arima: …Thank you…
Arima: I-I…

The butterfly which Arima caught before was shown again, this time Arima letting it escape outside.

Arima: …I’ve… always hated it.
Arima: This life (me) which kept on stealing….
Arima: …I feel like… I’ve finally left something… behind…

Tears flow from Arima’s eyes.

“The one who craved for death the most was…”

Kaneki: Ah… Arima-san!!!!
Arima: Ha….. i……

“Was the Reaper himself.”

Arima stopped moving as Kaneki hugs his body close.
