Chapter 121

Kaneki tells his group he means to disband it and go back to Anteiku. Having come to see Yoshimura's point of view, he believes he can still reach his aims by working alongside him, and he asks the others to come with him. Banjou, his subordinates, and Hinami all pledge to follow, and when Tsukiyama asks to join too, Kaneki grants it despite not trusting him. Touka, meanwhile, is left wondering whether Kaneki will truly come back.

At the CCG, Amon hands Akira a keychain shaped like Maris Stella. She praises it as looking refined and clever, and notes it is the first present she has ever gotten from a man besides her father.

Yoshitoki and Marude weigh the Owl Suppression Operation, with Yoshitoki calling it a hard assignment and asking Marude to serve as his vice-commander, which Marude readily accepts. Elsewhere Roma and Enji press Yoshimura on what passed between him and Kaneki; he answers that the choice to return is Kaneki's, though he expects him to. Finally, Marude and Yoshitoki seek Tsuneyoshi's blessing for the Owl Countermeasures Unit and clearance for the operation, whose target is Anteiku.

Kaneki disbands his group and heads for Anteiku, gaining the loyalty of Banjou, his men, Hinami, and even the distrusted Tsukiyama. Amon gives Akira a Maris Stella keychain, her first gift from a man other than her father. Yoshitoki names Marude vice-commander of the Owl Suppression Operation, and the CCG leadership secures Tsuneyoshi's approval, formally setting Anteiku as the target.

The Japanese title 正鵠 (Seikoku) refers to the bullseye of a target, rendered in English as Bull's Eye and listed here as Target. The chapter belongs to Volume 12 and ran in the 2014-18 issue on April 3, 2014.
