Warning ! spoiler ahead forChoujin Xchapter 21 !
Why Ken Kaneki ’s kagune manifests as a centipede ( especially when he becomes a kakuja ) in mangaka Sui Ishida’sTokyo Ghoulis similar to why the Beast Chouin Tokio Kurohara ’s Beastification takes the flesh of a piranha in Ishida ’s new mangaChoujin X.
In his before and critically applaud manga seriesTokyo Ghoul , one of the most defining feature that Ishida gave his eponymic monsters was the predatory organ know as the kagune . But rather than make them even more especial than they already were by explaining why certain kagune require certain forms in telling to the drug user , he severely determine kagune to only four types ( essentially based on what part of the consistence they grow out of ) . The main exception was , of row , Kaneki who eventually acquire a centipede - esque kagune , in addition to the one he receive from the ghoul Rize , afterTokyo Ghoul’sAogiri Tree member Yamori tortured himwith such an insect .

InChoujin X , however , Ishida is intelligibly expanding upon the implicit in complexness of Kaneki ’s centipede kagune with Tokio ’s Beastification form - and possibly Azuma Higashi ’s own , though his latest transformation in chapter 21 seems to contradict this . Earlier chapter ofChoujin Xexplain why Tokio turns into a vulture - like brute . As a kid , his class fellow referred to him as a buzzard because of how he would always flow around and benefit from his friendly relationship with the highly popular Azuma whose status as a modest superhero lead to some exciting encounters . Even Tokio ’s power as a Choujin seems to stem from that friendship ’s moral force . Recent chapter also heavy involve that Azuma ’s own Choujin baron were similar because , like how Tokio could mouth with marauder , Azuma realize a hyaena , though , the manga has never explained why .
WithChoujin X , Ishida is clearly inflate upon and normalizing Kaneki ’s centipede kagune which was already an anomaly inTokyo Ghoulfor personalizing what was ordinarily an unindividualized predatory harmonium for most graverobber . The difference of opinion , however , is that Kaneki ’s centipede kagune is the aftereffect of a terrible experience that negatively impact Kaneki ’s mental state . It ’s essentially a strong-arm reflexion through supernatural means that captures the phenomenon where Kaneki becomes his own torturer Yamori by adopting his mannerisms , idiosyncrasies and , most importantly , his affinity for torturing others . The kagune is symbolic for the actual centipede Yamori would put in Kaneki ’s pinna . Meanwhile , the Beastification forms inChoujin Xderive from a shoes that ’s more heavily ingrained in the user ’s personality . Like vultures that stalk dying brute and feed off their rotting corpse , Tokio leeched off his friend Azuma . In fact , Tokio subsequently study that he ’s unstoppablewhen he ’s protecting someone he idolize , an interesting twist on how buzzer " worship " the dying animals it will afterward feast upon when they die . If Azuma had really turned into a hyena - like brute as fan originally believed , it would have added another level to how he has a voracious appetite for might .
On top of Ishida understandably exposit upon Kaneki ’s centipede kagune inTokyo Ghoulwith his Beast Choujins , he ’s greatly broaden the kinds of index his superpowered beings can wield in his new manga , for there are Choujins that can burgeon forth smokefrom their feet likeFire Force ’s Shinra Kusakabeor create steel out of thin air . While it ’s improbable thatChoujin Xwill ever surpassTokyo Ghoulin terms of popular , it ’s decipherable that its powers are much more imaginative .
