I MISS HER TOO!
After Kaneki goes into dragon-mode, Niji finds herself in the forest with Touka and the others. As soon as she sees Shuu, she lets out a cry and flings herself into his arms.
“It’s okay, shh,” Tsukiyama tells her, rubbing her hair as he hugs her.
As soon as Touka tells him what Kaneki has become, Tsukiyama collapses. Now Niji and Chie comfort him as best they can.
When Itori appears to convince the remnants of Goat to fight humans, Tsukiyama hesitates. A part of him, too, wants justice for his family, and always will.
But then he sees Niji’s narrow eyes. She pokes him in horror.
He remembers Kaneki and what he would want. Squeezing Niji’s hand, he closes his eyes and screams: “SHUT UP!”
When the ghouls arrive at CCG, Niji lets out a cry as soon as Yusa appears. Where are Shio, and Rikai? Could they – no, no, no!
Yusa sees her and stumbles towards her. She races up to capture him in an embrace, sobbing the names of their friends.
Ui’s eyes widen at this feminine kid who looks like a boy, who’s grabbing Yusa and comforting him beyond what Ui himself could manage. Finally, Yusa is showing emotion.
“This is my friend Niji,” Yusa says to Ui. “Shio nicknamed her the rainbow princess.”
“And she’s my friend, so if you hurt her, I eat you,” Tsukiyama warns.
Ui nods. “It’s nice to meet you, Niji.”
She hisses at him.
“I’m sorry,” Ui blurts out.
“Me too,” she says then, crying again and reaching for him.
Ui is baffled, but sure. He’ll hug her. Maybe that’s what he needs, too.
