Akira collects a new quinque and vows to avenge her father against the One-Eyed Owl, sharing a tense graveyard moment with Amon, while Kaneki overhears the CCG's dread of the coming battle and V's Kaiko closes in on Yoshimura.
Summary
Akira and Amon stop by the CCG Lab, where Dr. Chigyou supplies Akira with a fresh quinque while still working to repair Amon's Doujima. At the graveyard afterward, Akira speaks of the two owls, one called X-owl and the other the non-killing owl. Her parents had served on the 24th Ward Investigation Team, and her father Kasuka Mado was killed by the One-Eyed Owl. She swears to avenge him by slaying the One-Eyed Owl in this operation.
Amon urges her not to be reckless. Akira takes hold of his tie and moves to kiss him, but he pulls away.
Kaneki listens in as two CCG investigators discuss the Owl Suppression Operation, recalling how many died in the battle a decade earlier and wondering who will manage to bring the Owl down this time. Elsewhere, Kaiko comes to confront Yoshimura.
