A kagune (赫子, red child) is a ghoul'south predatory organ and functions as their weapon and claws. It is usually as cherry equally blood (the colors are varied in the anime to distinguish the kagune of each individual, although in the manga, Kaneki as the black reaper's kagune has been described as jet black but this is likely due to rc prison cell density), flexible like the flow of water, but business firm and sturdy. When released, a ghoul's physique is strengthened, they are more resilient, and their mobility heightens. A kagune is composed of Rc cells, which catamenia just similar blood, can become equally solid as teeth and can exist described as "liquid muscles." The Rc cells are released from a kakuhou piercing the skin, and the released Rc cells form the kagune. The kagune are voluntary muscles every bit ghouls tin control them whenever they want and repeatedly harden and soften them at volition. Kagune size depends on the Rc cells' quality and quantity while the shape depends on the creativity and intellect of the user.^[1]

Although a ghoul's healing ability is high, the healing of wounds tends to be delayed if the wounds are inflicted by a kagune. It is also axiomatic that in lodge to counter a kagune in boxing, one must also have a kagune. Hence, ghoul investigators use kagune-based quinque as a tactical means to battle against ghouls.

Germination

The three kagune formation stages.

Research conducted by the CCG Laboratory Division resulted in identifying three stages of kagune formation. At their current knowledge, the stages are the same for every ghoul capable of manifesting kagune.

Determinative phase

At the point base of the kagune where the Rc cells erupt from the kakuhou, the erupted Rc cells will form bonds with each other. They will organize themselves in the construction best fit for their Rc blazon in a repeated web. This repeated activity of the cells volition occur instantaneously and lead to the next stage.

Fixative phase

The bonded Rc cells volition retain the resulted grade for a stock-still length of time. The basic shape of the kagune is seen at this stage. During this time, the defensive and offensive capabilities and weaknesses will take on their respective properties to the ghoul'south Rc type. The manifested kagune'due south appearance is ordinarily hereditary, taking on the shape and characteristics of their genetic predecessors, additionally, kagune size also depends on the Rc cells' quality and quantity while the shape depends on the creativity and intellect of the user. In relation to this stage is the user'southward transmission control of the kagune'south movement and deportment, which can include crystallization and increase in length, dexterity, sharpness, and concentration.

Disintegrative stage

After time has elapsed, the bonds between the cells brainstorm to intermission autonomously. At this indicate, the kagune loses its solidity and deteriorates.

Rc types

Rc types, positions on the body.

The kagune's appearance and the place of emergence on the body depend on the Rc type of the ghoul. There are four dissimilar Rc types: ukaku, koukaku, rinkaku, and bikaku. As a guideline, each type can characteristically subdue another blazon, although it may be dissimilar for ii specific opponents. Each Rc type has a set of strengths and weaknesses, each one unique to its blazon. These are exploited by the CCG in the creation of the quinque and Q bullets.

Ukaku

An ukaku kagune (羽赫, ukaku, "plumage-red") is spread out like feathers and is released from the shoulder area, information technology specializes in high speed attacks, well-nigh of the users seeming to accept highly enhanced speed. The kagune is lightweight and tin be used to deliver high-speed attacks against an antagonist, the primary method of set on is crystallizing their kagune to deliver a high speed torrent of fasten-like projectiles, however whilst crystallized they are much stiffer and cannot exist used for short range gainsay; at least one ukaku-type can generate powerful lightning-similar bolts, a possible rare ability. While the kagune is suited both for short-distance and long-distance attacks, short-range is considered their weakness.^[two] They may employ their kagune as a shield and several are capable of shaping them into sharp blades reminiscent of a koukaku to assistance in shut quarters. Many ukaku-types are able to increment the flexibility of their kagune for short-range combat, though this makes it ill-suited for their distinctive long-range attacks.

Birthday ukaku-type ghouls have a high chance of ending a battle rapidly equally releasing Rc cells depletes stamina. Thus, ukaku-type users lack endurance and are at a disadvantage if the battle drags on for a long time. Ukaku-type users tin utilise their speed and mobility to shoot downwards bikaku-blazon users from distant. However, a koukaku-type user can suppress an ukaku-type user by successfully guarding against the ukaku-type user's attacks, leaving them vulnerable to counterattacks and exhausting the ukaku-type user in the long run.

Known ukaku ghouls are: Shinsanpei Aura, Kazuichi Banjou, Fei, Shousei Idera, Kaya Irimi, Sumiharu Katou, Ayato Kirishima, Hikari Kirishima, Touka Kirishima, Kurei, Noyama, Ruchi, Shikorae, Ginshi Shirazu, Seidou Takizawa, Koutarou Amon, Koharu Utsumi, Renji Yomo, Yoshimura, and Eto Yoshimura.

Koukaku

A koukaku kagune (甲赫, kōkaku, "beat-red") is released below the shoulder blade. Due to its high density of Rc cells, it is heavy and extremely robust, giving it the greatest sturdiness and making them very well suited for defense. Usually, they are generally shaped into armors or shields, but on the offense, they can be shaped like melee weapons such equally drills, hammers, blades, and swords.

Due to its loftier weight, a koukaku's speed is inferior to all other Rc types and the kagune is hard to wield.

A koukaku tin can fend off an ukaku onslaught using its guarding capabilities. However, a rinkaku kagune tin deliver severe strikes against the slow koukaku, breaking their kagune and breaching their defenses.

Known koukaku ghouls are: Hinami Fueguchi, Ryouko Fueguchi, Ching-Li Hsiao, Arata Kirishima, Mairo, Matsumae, Ikuma Momochi, Naki, Nutcracker, Nutcracker's partner, Donato Porpora, Rou, Shikorae, Tanaka, Mirumo Tsukiyama, Shuu Tsukiyama, and Kuki Urie.

Rinkaku

A rinkaku kagune (鱗赫, rinkaku, "scale-cerise") has an appearance similar to scaled tentacles and is released at the dorsum around the waist. A rinkaku wielder has powerful regenerative abilities and some could even survive the nigh disquisitional of damage. Its peculiar advent and structure yields superior striking power and they excel in brute strength. Some rinkaku users are able to manipulate the shape of their kagune, such as changing its usual tentacle grade into swords or claws.

This type'southward regenerative ability is a upshot of the Rc cells easily binding together. Their Rc cells are similar to liquid. Nevertheless, this means that the binding force among the Rc cells are weak, therefore making the kagune very soft and easy to break. But because their Rc cells bind so easily, some rinkaku can bind their multiple tentacle-like kagune together to brand a larger, stronger kagune. So far the number of tentacles that rinkaku users tin can create are from 1 to eight tentacles.

A rinkaku kagune tin can deliver severe strikes confronting the slow koukaku, penetrating the kagune and breaching the koukaku'due south defenses. However, a rinkaku has serious problems fighting against the balanced bikaku kagune: A bikaku has comprehensively high ability, allowing them to fight against the creature-force rinkaku, and the rinkaku kagune softness makes information technology comparatively easy for the bikaku to cut the kagune off. This disarms a rinkaku no matter how much strength information technology may possess, leaving the rinkaku at a disadvantage on the defensive. It has been shown that in some cases, a bikaku assail can disable a rinkaku's regeneration.^[3]

Known rinkaku ghouls are: Yuuri Akanuma, Asa, Asaki Fueguchi, Hinami Fueguchi, Nimura Furuta, Hajime Hazuki, Hooguro, Rize Kamishiro, Ken Kaneki, Kinko, Kie Muramatsu, Yakumo Oomori, Rio, Rio'due south blood brother, Wobbegong, Kanae von Rosewald, Karao Saeki, Kurona Yasuhisa, Mayuzumi, Nashiro Yasuhisa, and Saiko Yonebayashi.

Bikaku

A bikaku kagune (尾赫, bikaku, "tail-ruddy") typically has a tail-similar appearance and is released around the tail-bone/coccyx. It is expert for medium-altitude attacks and has decent offense, defense, and speed. Thus, they have no notable strengths or weaknesses similar the kagune based on other Rc types, meaning the kagune itself is treated as a surprise "trump card." The number of tails a bikaku user can create is usually one, but some can create more.

A bikaku has ameliorate speed and durability against the brute-forcefulness, breakable rinkaku, allowing them to cut off the rinkaku's kagune. Nevertheless, a bikaku volition be overwhelmed by the faster ukaku-user and will lose against the ukaku'southward long-range attacks.

The balanced characteristics makes the kagune a preferred quinque type for inexperienced investigators.

Known bikaku ghouls are: Large Madam, the Bin brothers, Cain, Demon Yamada, Touma Higemaru, Matasaka Kamishiro, Akashi Kobayashi, Enji Koma, Uruka Minami, Miza Kusakari, Tooru Mutsuki, Nishiki Nishio, Noro, Nutcracker, Shikorae, and Yumitsu Tomoe.

Rare abilities

In some cases, a ghoul'due south kagune can possess several unique abilities. While the kagune's bones structure itself is quite unproblematic, the occurrences concurrent with these phenomena are unexplained, still they have been accredited to highly full-bodied amounts of Rc cells.

Pseudo-electrokinesis

The kagune while in use may be surrounded by a lightning-like aureola, capable of generating electricity that can be utilized in an offensive and destructive way. This is non a learned feature, simply is hereditary, originating from the kakuhou. Note this ability may be passed onto a quinque, shown by Narukami and T-Human. This ability has merely been shown in ukaku blazon ghouls.

The known ghouls able of this ability are Touka Kirishima and Renji Yomo. Hikari Kirishima is hinted to have this ability, as she is Touka's mother and Yomo'due south sister, and Narukami seemed to be created from her.

Pseudo-pyrokinesis

Thus far, this has merely been demonstrated by Tatara in kakuja form, however, the mutated Rc cells were able to generate heat and flames reaching 4000 degrees Celsius.

Rc cell smash

The kagune/quinque volition release a high corporeality of condensed Rc cells and shoot them off in the form of a destructive wave or axle. The only ghoul shown to use this ability was the Taxidermied Owl.^[4] The quinque Higher Mind utilizes this ability as well.^[5]

Healing

In both an ukaku and rinkaku ghoul this skill has been present, suggesting it may be an ability all Rc types are capable of. The wounded may be healed from injuries such as large fatal wounds to needing whole bones replaced. Whether they are another ghoul, human (albeit with added complications involving increased Rc factors), or the owner of the healing kagune, healing can be achieved within varying time parameters. Unlike electrokinesis, healing is not exclusively hereditary but can be learned similar a skill which can exist improved over fourth dimension with experience, an example beingness Nico's experience healing humans, describing it as a "flim-flam." Only Kazuichi Banjou and Nico take exhibited this ability.

Shape-shifting

This ability to alter the users appearance has only been shown by Uta and Roma Hoito, indicating its uniqueness.

Information technology tin be used to revert the concrete appearance of the user back to how they looked in their younger years, as Roma used it to keep herself looking young.^{[half dozen]} The ability can also mimic the appearance of others well enough to fool even those familiar with the individual being mimicked. This includes creating detailed facial features and body structures to exist realistic enough to function much like a existent body, every bit shown past Uta.

Furthermore does the ability allow the user to alter the shape of the torso equally desired, as shown by Roma who morphed her paw into a clawed version of increased size.^[6] The extend of how far the trunk can be altered by this method is unknown.

Unique states

Kakuja

Chief article: Kakuja

When ghouls repeatedly cannibalize other ghouls, they (rarely) develop an abnormal kagune apart from the common predatory kagune. This kagune typically takes an armor-like shape, and ghouls with such a kagune are chosen kakuja.

This abnormal transformation kagune likewise takes after the Rc types.

Known kakuja ghouls are: Ken Kaneki, Arata Kirishima, Yakumo Oomori, Seidou Takizawa, Kurona Yasuhisa, Undercover King, Tatara, Yoshimura, Yan, Koutarou Amon, Noro, Eto Yoshimura, Roma Hoito, Uta, Rize Kamishiro, Daikichi Washuu, Yoshiu Washuu, Tsuneyoshi Washuu, Yoshitoki Washuu, Matsuri Washuu, Kichimura Washuu, and Shikorae.

Chimera

Main article: Bubble kagune

When ghouls with different Rc types have children, at that place is a small chance they volition inherit abilities from both parents and be born with a bubble kagune. This trait appears to exist extremely rare, with only two known examples appearing in the serial.

Known bubble ghouls are Hinami Fueguchi and Nutcracker.

Rc prison cell absorption

A unique ability only observed in the ghoul Shikorae.

The exact mechanisms of this trait are unknown. The ghoul absorbs Rc cells from their environment, stores them in his trunk and is then able to release them at will. Assuasive them to utilize all four types of kagune. Though, dissimilar a ghoul with a chimera kagune, they are unable to utilize more than one kagune type at one time.

Such a ghoul has a chance to plow into a kakuja upon arresting Rc cells from a Dragon Orphans.^[7]

Detachment

Though the method has still not been explained, some ghouls possess a rare power to detach part of their kagune. This discrete piece maintains its traits for some time, and continues to function split from the main torso. Disengagement can be used in several ways:

• kagune wall, which buries into the footing and sprouts like a thorn bush-league or other organic barriers. It extends itself to fill the entire area, making passage impossible.

• kagune trap, which can be buried within any surface, and coils upwardly on itself. These traps will lie in wait until nearby movement triggers them, bursting from their hiding identify to impale what has set them off. Information technology appears to be possible to set more than than a vi traps at a fourth dimension, though the exact limitation is unknown.

• kagune indicate, which is able to transmit data similar to a distress signal. How the information is transferred as well as received is unknown, but a small slice of kagune tin reveal the possessor'due south location. It has just been shown to work one-way so far.

It is possible for ghouls to utilize their detached kagune in more than destructive and offensive ways. For instance, Koutarou Amon uses the kagune from his arm to complete the class of his damaged quinque, Doujima i/2.^[8] Nico tin can create massive concatenation of detached parts to assault their enemies.^[9] On the other hand, Eto and Donato Porpora have demonstrated the ability to use the detached pieces of their kagune to manipulate and restrain targets.^{[1] [10]} Matsumae has shown the power to detach pieces of her kagune and plant them into a wall, sprouting a kagune wall from them which makes passage impossible.^[11] While Roma Hoito has shown the ability to detach parts of her kagune to inform others of her location during imprisonment.^[12]

Other ghouls use a pseudo-form of detachment, were they suspension parts off of their kagune to use them equally quinque-substitutes. These include Kurona Yasuhisa and Ken Kaneki to form sword-similar weapons^{[13] [14]} and Tooru Mutsuki to create knife-similar kagune shards^[15]. This is no existent form of detachment every bit the separated function of the kagune is no longer able to operate on its ain, unlike the example with the normal form of detachment, were the kagune acts autonomous after being separated from their user.

Known ghouls capable of detachment are: Donato Porpora, Shinsanpei Aura, Eto Yoshimura, Koutarou Amon, Matsumae, Nico, Nutcracker, and Roma Hoito.

Known Kagune

Image	Ghoul	Type	Description
	Ayato Kirishima	Ukaku	Like his sis, Ayato'southward kagune were vermilion in color. He was able to course a single wing on both of his shoulders. Like many ukaku ghouls, he was agile and able to shoot bullets from both wings when in the crystallized way. However he also suffered from a low Rc supply and therefore tired if a battle was dragged out for likewise long and was sick suited for close range, however, he has managed to evade both weaknesses of an ukaku through utilizing his kagune in a koukaku-like manner, making close range his specialty rather than his weakness. He was able to hide within his kagune mid-air, with the two wings revolving around him to shield him from projectiles such as bullets. In :re, his kagune appeared to be much larger in size, equally he also possesed the ability to generate one wing of his kagune, and has better command over it. His crystallized kagune wings could transform into sharp blades sprouting from his shoulders.
	Eto Yoshimura	Ukaku	Eto'south skill with her kagune is far more advanced than well-nigh ghouls. Afterwards the timeskip, her kagune takes the form of multiple grotesque appendages fastened to her back. These appendages can be shaped into eyes, mouths, artillery, and legs in gild to accommodate Eto'due south purposes. Her kagune appears to be an extension of her consciousness as the mouths often speak breathless sentences, peradventure her thoughts at the moment.
	Kaya Irimi	Ukaku	Her kagune takes the form of two beetle-similar wings with a tail between them.
	Kazuichi Banjou	Ukaku	Banjou has a kagune which he never used in battle, as it serves as his healing factor.
	Koharu Utsumi	Ukaku	Koharu's kagune resembled a pair of thin dragonfly wings, fragile and ill-suited to combat. She apace ran out of stamina, and was defeated without launching any significant attacks.
	Koutarou Amon	Ukaku	He appears to have an ukaku kagune of decent power, capable of firing off numerous projectiles. These tin can hands blast holes into another ghoul's body, as demonstrated during his brief battle with Shikorae. He exhibits great accurateness, able to hit all four of Ginkui's mouths with iv projectiles in an instant. These tin vary in size, from small to human-sized, and existence powerful enough to pierce through the body of a quinx and to pause through Urie'due south kagune. He also demonstrated that he tin can course a tentacle which can attack from short to mid-range. He is able to release round bullet-like ukaku attacks, which chopped off Takizawa's leg and broke his full kakuja into pieces.
	Renji Yomo	Ukaku	Befitting his moniker, Yomo's kagune takes the form of two black wings (two big black talons in the anime) sprouting from his shoulders. It tin can launch dandy waves of crystalline projectiles. His kagune is as well capable of producing lightning-like bolts equanimous of Rc cells in a like mode to Narukami able to crack the quinque.
	Seidou Takizawa	Ukaku	The kagune features the Owl'south distinctive "feather" of spikes along his shoulder blade, which can fire a avalanche of crystallized Rc cells across long distances, and can besides swiftly shred through flesh. These crystallized shards tin destroy quinques like the i Chuu Hachikawa wielded with ease. Takizawa'south shards can also vary in size, some growing to be equally large and wide as a pillar when fired from his kagune. He also has the unseen power to extend his kagune into a large fly, which differs from Yoshimura's usage. During the battle on Rushima, he demonstrates greater versatility and is able to rapidly shape his kagune into a multitude of shapes. This includes forming an elongated and armored limb for greater striking power, a big scimitar blade from his right shoulder, abrupt tentacles he uses for stabbing, and precisely-aimed projectiles that batter rather than pierce the target.
	Shinsanpei Aura	Ukaku	His kagune takes the form of a blade which wraps around his right arm. Later on, the blade features a large center at it's shoulder base of operations during his fight with Renji Yomo.
	Skull Masks Leader	Ukaku	She possessed an ukaku kagune.
	Sumiharu Katou	Ukaku	Katou possessed an ukaku kagune in the shape of two wings with drills growing out of them. He was capable of shooting the drills towards his targets. They contained enough concentration and strength to penetrate a sheet of metal.
	Touka Kirishima	Ukaku	During the fourth dimension of Touka's fight with Shuu Tsukiyama, she formed a single ukaku fly and control her kagune with ease. As time passed, Touka gained a second wing with projectiles of a much larger size. Additionally, her kagune stopped the projectiles of Kiyoko'due south Zebizu and Mougan's Higher Mind, upon emerging, fifty-fifty canceling the attack for a brief moment of time.
	Yoshimura	Ukaku	He has two to iv kakuhou that course spikes and fires fast projectiles very chop-chop. The other ii kakuhou form concentrated Rc that fans out every bit heavy shotgun pellets and pours down through cover. With two types of ammunition in his arsenal, Yoshimura has the firepower to take downwardly many unprepared foes. Despite his tall and bulky frame, he is quick to overpower many opponents in a thing of seconds. Unique to Yoshimura, he has shown the power to shoot Rc projectiles out of his unabridged body, not simply his kagune.
	Arata Kirishima	Koukaku	Arata'due south Kagune took the course of 4 tentacles. Being a Koukaku, his kagune specialized in defense.
	Ching-Li Hsiao	Koukaku	Hsiao's kagune takes form of a sword and shield. She has recently shown the ability to wrap it around her legs in lodge to strenghten her kicks.
	Donato Porpora	Koukaku	His koukaku kagune resembled a long tentacle formed from intertwined strands of sinew and an outer layer covered in cross-like shapes. It was capable of ranged attacks, and allowed him to extend it over long distances and spear targets with great precision. In spite of the type's greater weight, he was able to wield it with incredible speed, attacking faster than the eye can follow.
	Fuka	Koukaku	Fuka possesses a Koukaku Kagune in the form of a sword.
	Ikuma Momochi	Koukaku	Ikuma has a shell-like kagune, which encases his left arm when in apply. Nonetheless, every bit he is unused to fighting, information technology is fairly weak.
	Kuki Urie	Koukaku	His kagune has an armored structure that covers his shoulder and upper arm, likewise equally a long bract. This blade is almost as long as his leg, and easily slices through the flesh and bone of enemy ghouls. After he had frame 4 released, his kagune increased in size and gained some other blade. He is besides at present capable of producing a shield from his kagune, wielding information technology aslope his koukaku blade.
	Matsumae	Koukaku	After saving Karren, Matsumae displayed the power to disassemble her kagune in the class of a wall. In the Auction, her kagune was two jagged tentacles. During her fight with Hairu Ihei, her kagune took the form of a sword and shield. The shield had swell immovability, being able to cake a consequent series of strikes from T-Human (though she has shown concern how long it will last). Equally commented by Hairu, its attack is in a whack-a-mole-like mode.
	Mairo	Koukaku	Despite being a heavy-type, Mairo's kagune is a thin, arm-length blade the width of his arm. It can also be utilized as a short javelin, connected to the trunk through threads.
	Mirumo Tsukiyama	Koukaku	Mirumo'south koukaku takes on the class of an irregular sword, in similar shape to his son's, albeit with a tighter coil. The kagune is complimented by smaller intricacies such as an accentuated border of the blade tip and vine-like bulges layering it. While non much is known nearly the kagune's capabilities, information technology is implied to accept some rather significant force based on the result of his spar with Matsumae, who was stated to have the greatest skill of the immature servants.
	Naki	Koukaku	As a koukaku user, Naki utilizes his kagune as a broadsword-like blade on his right arm. He has shown proficiency in boxing. During the Auction Mopping-up Operation, he was seen killing four investigators with a single swing and with other Doves struggling to go along track of how many he had killed in the battle. He was shown giving Amon a lot of trouble during their boxing and also being able to stand against Shuu Tsukiyama in battle as well.
	Nutcracker'south partner	Koukaku	His kagune resembles a pair of shields coming from beneath his shoulder blades, which frames his arms. He can utilize them to block or strike, and possesses strength sufficient to shatter pillars.
	Rou	Koukaku	Rou has a large koukaku kagune that sprouts from beneath her left shoulder, with the base forming a bloom-like structure that covers her shoulder blade entirely. The kagune has a flexible, whip-similar cord of mankind connecting the flower-similar mass to a structure similar to a spear. Rou wields her kagune with her left hand.
	Ryouko Fueguchi	Koukaku	Information technology had the advent of flower petals that spread to four sides. Information technology was able to defend confronting the assault of any kagune. It included both, offensive and defensive capability.
	Shuu Tsukiyama	Koukaku	He can class a linear metallic ribbon that tin can wrap into a flexible spiral that doubles every bit armor to shield his upper body. To extend his achieve, he can form information technology into a large, sword-similar blade that is suited to thrusting and stabbing.
	Tanaka	Koukaku	Tanaka'south kagune was simply one large tentacle of fairly potent power that vaguely resembled that of Uruka Minami's bikaku in his own koukaku class and was capable of grabbing, throwing, and attacking opponents.
	Asaki Fueguchi	Rinkaku	Its appearance was similar to a spine tied together. It was suited to high-speed combat and had a sharp cut.
	Hajime Hazuki	Rinkaku	Hazuki displayed his kagune in his fight against Shuu Tsukiyama, possessing two tentacles. In Frame B, he could release up to iv or v tentacles. His kagune was too able to form multiple mouths, similar to Ken Kaneki.
	Hooguro	Rinkaku	Hooguro's kagune takes the form of two small-scale and thin double jointed appendages emerging from the centre of his upper dorsum that run into and course a long and straight blade where they meet. The blade tin can hands cut straight through anyone he slashes at, equally seen through his battle with the Oggai.
	Karao Saeki	Rinkaku	He possessed a kagune with several tentacles, allowing him to attack from a distance. He also had a strong regeneration ability, which immune him to recover virtually instantly from his injuries.
	Karren von Rosewald	Rinkaku	Karren is able to create up to half-dozen whiplike tentacles, with a ribbonlike shape that wraps around itself like a vine. During the extermination, Karren's kagune can now turn into ane massive tentacle with mouths forming on it.
	Ken Kaneki	Rinkaku	Kaneki'southward kagune is portrayed in the anime as bright red, becoming a darker shade as it neared the tips. In the Tokyo Ghoul:reanime, information technology has inverse to a red-violet colour. Kaneki initially displayed his kagune in his fight against Nishiki Nishio, possessing three tails which repeatedly impaled Nishiki before throwing him, saving him and Hide while having footling control over them. After his torture, Kaneki was able to produce 4 tentacles in his battle with Yamori, which were capable of pinning down and overwhelming an incomplete kakuja. During the raid on Kanou'due south lab, Kaneki'south kagune further adult into six tentacles, albeit in an unstable mental land, and while he fought Kishou Arima, Kaneki was able to manifest eight tentacles which are able to be shaped into small easily, which take an enormous range and subversive strength enough to damage V14'south pillars. Every bit Haise Sasaki, he is able to control and manipulate the shape of his kagune at will, and command the tentacles to process different tasks at once. He is also noted to take a better control over his kagune than natural-born ghouls. In his fight with Karren von Rosewald and Eto Yoshimura, Sasaki was able to shape his kagune into more intricate forms, and his kagune is greatly larger, with the potency of neutralizing Owl'south kakuja. Afterwards devouring Eto's kakuja, his kagune is able to grade multiple optics and mouths. Even while exhausted, he was able to manifest information technology fast plenty that Hajime and the remainder of the Oggai could not react, and was able to quickly devastate the vast majority of them. By the time of his final confrontation with Furuta, Kaneki's kagune had grown to a massive size, information technology's thickness dwarfing that of a man, in addition to it's length growing as well.
	Kichimura Washuu	Rinkaku	Furuta displayed his kagune in his fight confronting Eto, possessing i to two tentacles that could easily slice through Eto's kakuja while she was in a weakened country. During his fight with Marude, he could produce iii tentacles with spikes, each resembling Kaneki's beginning centipede-like incomplete kakuja. One of the tentacles were able to produce a wide oral fissure with teeth. During the defense of Tokyo, Furuta brandished four massive and thorned tentacles similar to the ones developed past Dragon, easily shredding into an unprepared Kaneki. During his duel with Kaneki, Furuta's kagune became a big black mass with multiple optics that worked in the manner of tentacles, able to expand through large distances and class into numerous spikes.
	Kie Muramatsu	Rinkaku	Kie possesses a Rinkaku that takes the course of a pair of tentacles, said Kagune specializing in the brute forcefulness information technology wields.
	Kurona Yasuhisa	Rinkaku	She is capable of creating up to two tentacles from her waist. Similar all rinkaku types, she overpowers her opponents with fauna strength. In addition, she generally fought alongside with her twin sis and added pressure level to their enemies with their combination attacks, similar to the Bin brothers. Later the timeskip, she can produce several more tentacles and shape them into claws, as well every bit blades, to arrange her purposes.
	Nashiro Yasuhisa	Rinkaku	She was capable of creating upward to two tentacles from her waist. Similar all rinkaku-types, she overpowered her opponents with brute strength. In addition, she more often than not fought alongside her twin sis and added pressure to their enemies with their combination attacks, like to the Bin brothers.
	Rize Kamishiro	Rinkaku	Her kagune was special because information technology had an abnormal regenerating cistron fifty-fifty among the rinkaku types. She was able to summon upward to six tentacle claws, portrayed every bit brilliant cherry-red in the anime. While slim, each claw could cut deeply enough to fatally injure anyone effortlessly, human or ghoul. Yoshimura explained, despite having a superior cellular regeneration, if sufficient damage harmed her vitals then even with a fast recovering body it would not regenerate from fatal wounds; like the steel beam that crushed her waist and ultimately led to her "accident."
	Saiko Yonebayashi	Rinkaku	Saiko's kagune was initially portrayed as ii tentacles resembling a reptilian tail. What she utilizes during the Rosewald Investigation appears as a jumbo insectoid structure with additional tentacles protruding from its end, being easily several times bigger than Saiko herself. Saiko is said to have the highest explosive ability in the Quinx Squad and her kagune appears strong enough to accept huge gouges out of physical structures. It takes a pregnant corporeality of stamina to use, as Saiko has been consistently seen panting on the flooring after a unmarried usage, and requires recovery time for each blow and her torso is left vulnerable while using information technology. After the Tsukiyama Operation, she is able to command her kagune more efficently, and for longer periods without whatsoever noticeable stamina loss. She can control its shape, either using it as several lashing tentacles or its giant form. Her kagune was able to temporarily subdue Koutarou Amon and later on incapacitate his kakuja class.
