The caterpillar that became into a butterfly.
Kaneki has undergone multiple transformations, all of them as a result of a stressful situation and triggered by his desire to protect.
Now as it happend before, Kaneki, who is being pressed by Furuta’s actions, undergoes a new transformation, that unlike in other occasions doesn’t imply the step to the background of the previous personality, but the union of all of them.
This transformation that was foreshadowed by Furuta when he compared Kaneki with a caterpillar,
is triggered by the figure of Touka, for whom Kaneki wants to live and to protect.
This process towards kaneki’s new person begins when as a result of his reflection along with his other personalities, he is aware that the current situation implies that he won’t be able to see her again.
Provoking that his different personalities who were initially in disagreement, begin to agree on the same goal. Recovering his resolve to continue fighting and acting despite the consequences his actions may have, since they aren’t motivated by his ideals, but by his desire to see and protect her.
This change is represented by the chessboard panels, which corresponds with each moment in which Kaneki underwent a transformation, being these when Shironeki became in Sasaki, when Sasaki became in Black Reaper and when Kuroneki became in Shironeki respectively.
Reaching a harmonious or balanced state on a psychological level as a result of its union, which can be linked to the possible number 14 on Kaneki’s cheek, which corresponds to the tarot card the Temperance that represents balance.
Being born as a result of it a new figure, and dying the figure of Kaneki as we knew him.
Therefore, becoming the caterpillar into a butterfly.
