03x02 - member: Fragments

[bunniefuu]

Do it,

accept me.

Come on, come on, come on, come on, come on, come on...

I won't be swallowed up by you.

Tch!

Orochi's kagune has been broken up!

After just that, it will be back soon.

You're a tough one, all right.

Why, thank you.

Awesome... He's using his quinque and kagune at the same time!

We're not through yet.

Take that!

Mr. Sass!

"Fragments: member"

I can't... regenerate in time...

Haise...

Haise...

Teach!

Stand down.

But...

Superior's orders.

It's almost...

...like he's a different person.

You aren't getting through, Mr. Orochi.

Yeah...

I'm suddenly becoming more interested in you than in those kids.

I think you're better off not knowing about...

...me.

This... almost seems like...

Payback time!

Ah...

I'm dead, I'm dead, I'm dead... or whatever.

Jeez, what is it with you?

No matter how far you go, you're irredeemable, huh...

Kaneki?

Mr... Nishio...?

Huh? What? Who is Mr. Nishio?

What is this? What am I saying?

Sorry, but time's up.

Pursuing Orochi is on hold.

Our squad's duty is to handle the SS-rated ghoul "Haise."

SS-rated ghoul?

Kuramoto, Takeomi...

--Right! --Right!

Kuroiwa...

Akira...

Yeah, I'm on it.

Time for a little nap, Haise.

You failed to secure Torso and Orochi, then?

I am terribly sorry.

No, never mind that, how is st Grade Sasaki doing?

"Yoshitoki Washu" "Bureau Chief" No, never mind that, how is st Grade Sasaki doing?

"Yoshitoki Washu" "Bureau Chief" He went out of control while fighting against Orochi,

but with Senior Investigator Hirako's help, we succeeded in calming him.

Could his contact with Orochi have been the trigger?

Well, good work, Senior Investigator Mado.

Please continue looking after the Quinx Squad and st Grade Sasaki for me.

Yes, sir.

The Quinx project was one that was personally initiated by Chief Washu.

The chief was also the one

who selected half-ghoul st Grade Sasaki to be the Quinx Squad's mentor.

But what are his true motives?

Senior Investigator Mado...

Is something the matter? You look so serious.

Associate Special Investigator Kijima...

"Shiki Kijima" "Associate Special Investigator" I heard you had a bit of trouble with st Grade Sasaki.

Yes. We were able to bring him under control this time, though.

The half-ghoul st Grade Sasaki and investigators with built-in quinques,

"Nimura Furuta" "Investigator st Grade" the Quinxes--truly a fascinating match-up, isn't it?

Oh, pardon me, but I must hurry along.

I must get ready to receive a guest coming in from Germany.

Well, if you will excuse me, Senior Investigator Mado.

Let's go, Furuta.

Item: Haise Sasaki is to be treated as a human.

Item: When he goes out of control and it becomes unavoidable,

he is to be treated as a ghoul, and expelled.

What a cruel set of instructions.

Even if it costs one's arms and legs, a ghoul investigator... escapes!

Was that a mistake worthy of a slap?

What good is it for the squad captain to expose the squad to danger?

It's dangerous to turn your back on the enemy.

If you had confronted him head-on, you'd have been k*lled.

As long as you remain alive, you can have many more chances.

Once you lose your life, there's nothing more that can be done!

Urie, I'm removing you as the Quinx Squad's captain.

I find that hard to accept.

Superior's orders.

You're just another ghoul.

Urie!

Mr. Sass risked his life to save us!

You're a piece of crap that's worse than a ghoul!

I should k*ll you right here!

Go ahead and try.

Urie...

I want you to apologize to Teach.

Good-for-nothing hypocrites.

Shirazu, let him go.

Whatever Urie wants to say, his dismissal is final.

The new captain has also already been chosen.

The new captain is...

Investigator rd Grade Ginshi Shirazu.

--Huh? --Eh?

Huh? Me?!

H-H-Hold on a second, Mr. Sass!

This is a job for someone who has smarts!

I think that a squad captain should be someone who acts for the team's sake.

If you get too defiant, I'll devour you.

That is, if I'm a ghoul, like you say.

Hey, Urie...

S-Score cap...

Ginshi Shirazu, huh?

Yes. Appearances notwithstanding, Shirazu considers those around him.

"Kisho Arima" "Special Investigator"

"Kisho Arima" "Special Investigator" Urie is outstanding, to be sure, but...

An interesting bit of direction, Haise.

It's just like you.

I just hope that Urie takes this opportunity to work on his attitude.

A parental touch?

You're a kind one.

Well, they're all a bunch of high-maintenance kids.

I give up.

Not bad, Haise.

Um, Arima?

You're hearing the voice again?

Yes. He whispers into my ear.

I'm sure he's... the former me.

I don't know anything about the years that I've already lived.

But,

while I may not have anything,

I'm still pretty happy.

If the former me should return,

everything that I've built over the last two years would be lost...

...and that frightens me.

You don't want to see your family, or previous friends?

I already... have a family.

I'll drop by the Chateau sometime. I'd like to borrow another book.

You don't have to go to that trouble. I'll bring it to you directly.

That's okay. I'd like to see the "grandkids," too.

Even if ever I lose control, and can't go back to normal,

I'm sure Arima will see that I...

You're irredeemable, huh?

I... have been redeemed.

--I'm just here because Toru insisted. --Even if...

...it's just a pretend family.

Calling CCG HQ... While Shimoguchi Squad was investigating Torso...

...we were att*cked by a ghoul from Aogiri Tree...

Rabbit... and incapacitated... Repeat, it was the SS-rated...

...Rabbit!

Urie...

Kuroiwa...

"Takeomi Kuroiwa" "Investigator nd Grade"

"Takeomi Kuroiwa" "Investigator nd Grade" Is st Grade Sasaki all right?

Our squad's mentor is not that fragile.

He's not, huh? Good.

--No, not good. Nothing is good, Kuroiwa. --Regulations or not, turning my blade on a superior officer is...

Your father left my father to die.

There's no excuse. Why didn't he fight alongside him?

Do you know how it feels...

...to have what little remains of your father lying inside a coffin?

Do you know? Do you know, Takeomi Kuroiwa?

Let me know when would be a good time to visit.

I'll see you later.

Yeah. Don't you get in too deep, either.

Get yourself in too deep and die.

Senior Investigator Shimoguchi...

It's too bad about your men.

I'm sorry to do this, but I'd like you to tell us what happened that day.

You want your kagune beefed-up?

Yes.

You want to be more like st Grade Sasaki?

Perhaps I should explain to you the way your bodies work again.

Quinxes were an idea that came about

thanks to half-ghoul st Grade Sasaki's physical condition.

A kakuho is taken from a ghoul and implanted within your body,

and five stages of Frames are set up.

Right now, you are set at Frame .

Your kakuho is operating at % capacity.

In other words, if we raise my Frame level,

I'll be able to use a more powerful kagune, right?

I wouldn't recommend it.

Too late to say that now.

Please do so, Dr. Shiba.

Go get the chief and your mentor's permission, please.

Don't go playing the moralist now, old man.

Rabbit, was it?

Yeah. My father was done in by him and Fueguchi.

Senior Investigator Kureo Mado...

I heard from Arima that he was an excellent investigator.

And that he also learned how to handle a quinque from him.

Assuming that Torso is affiliated with Aogiri,

this case will be taken out of our hands.

It will be taken over by someone in S through S .

I wonder if Shimoguchi is okay.

He was the only one to survive, after all.

That's a bitter pill--

losing someone that you've spent some time with.

Once you join Aogiri, it won't be easy to leave.

Think hard about it before you decide what to do.

I don't have anywhere left to go. But Aogiri? How did it come to this?

Hold on...

If I make use of Aogiri, then perhaps...

Hey, Saeki...

R-Right. Um...

Ayato.

Ayato...

Was there someone named Sasaki in with the Quinx bunch?

"Haise Sasaki"

Sheesh, how are we supposed to live with this?!

What's wrong?

Quinx Squad has been pulled off the Torso investigation.

Heh, they say there's a possibility that he's a member of Aogiri Tree now.

What can we do? S through S are in charge of Aogiri matters.

Yeah, but after we ran him down as far as we did?

If this is Aogiri we're talking about, we have no choice.

You know how many casualties there were in the w*r with Aogiri two years ago,

don't you?

Well, um...

Hey, Saiko!

Don't tell me you're...

"Saiko Yonebayashi" "Investigator rd Grade" ...taking that ham all for yourself.

Ho! Crispy and juicy!

Ugh...

So, what's the subject of our next investigation?

Hmm?

Oh, someone called "Nutcracker."

H-Hurry...

Do me...

For real? Is this for real?

I'm really doing it!

So, Mr. Sass...

...where is the "Shirazu Squad's" next target, Nutcracker?

I thought I'd start by looking the part.

"Nutcracker." Operates in the red light district.

Her rating is still under review.

Why "Nutcracker," exactly?

She apparently has a thing for smashing the testicles of men.

That... sounds painful.

By the way, Captain Shirazu...

...where are Urie and Saiko?

Prince Uri said he wasn't feeling well, so he went to see Dr. Shiba.

Apparently something is off with his Frame,

so he may be laid up in the hospital for a few days.

That's something you should report right away.

Sorry.

How about Saiko?

We tried to wake her, but there was no answer.

Her room was locked, too.

I hope she didn't die of ham poisoning.

Ham?

Well, well, I have a very promising feeling about this!

Teach?

Oh, nothing.

Let's stop in for tea time, okay?

":re"?

Oh, that aroma!

This shop definitely serves delicious coffee.

My "nasal kagune" is whispering it to me!

Mr. Sass sure is keyed up over this.

He told me his hobby is going around to delicious coffee shops.

Ah...

Hey, Brother, how many times have I told you,

when customers come in, serve them--

Huh...? That flavor...

She was smiling.

Like she was at a loss... Like she was a little bit sad...

I...

...thought to myself, how can anyone be...

...as pretty as her?

"Tokyo Ghoul:re"

"Next Time"

Master Shu...

--No, three! --Can you feel anything, Master Shu?

--That's okay. Whatever happens to him makes no difference to me. --Can you feel anything, Master Shu?

--That's okay. Whatever happens to him makes no difference to me. --When is the auction being held?

--That's okay. Whatever happens to him makes no difference to me. --We're going to become women!

--That's okay. Whatever happens to him makes no difference to me. --Don't tell me you're Quinxes!

--Easy there, Shi. --Oh, you know...

...a bit off his nut?

--November th. --...each heading up their own squads.
