This was an amazing rollercoaster of a volume. So many things happened. Kaneki fighting against someone who is not Touka and having to go all out but yet finding his humanity. Mado finally... well I don't want to spoil it. Kaneki really needs to have his hair tousled more often, he looks good. And while the last bit of the manga wasn't entirely my thing, I did like that the author added that. Just a bit more info. I do wonder how long it will before that investigator goes to another side... not long probably. Poor Hinami, I just wanted to give her a hug. OK, I may get eaten if she is especially hungry, but she needed a hug in this one (and also the previous).
Hopefully I can read more of this one soon!

Smart + sensitive + smokin = Amon <3 ugh it’s going to be exhausting rooting for people on both sides. Must be how Kaneki feels.

At the start of volume 3, Touka and Kaneki go in disguise to the Commission of Counter Ghoul (CCG) with the intention of throwing the Doves who have been sniffing around their ward off of their scent. We learn about RC cells, which ghouls have, identifying them from humans, and devices that have been made to scan for these cells.
Up until this point, we have gotten glimpses of characters fighting one another, using their respective weapons to maim or kill. But for the first time, we get a full battle scene between ghouls and doves, and it is brutal and fascinating. These characters have such anger and hatred (and heart) and it really shines through in the art style. Not to mention, the two fights are so opposite in execution, dialogue, and outcome, and it is really interesting to see.
As another loss is felt throughout the final chapters, we see more humanity on both sides, as well as more evil. Kaneki desperately wants to be a bridge between the two worlds, and he struggles with all his feelings despite becoming a much better opponent, physically.
Side note, I really do love his mask.
