I hate that his nihilism won out in the end, for both of their lives. 😦 

– Riddled with guilt over her miserable existence, Furuta asks Uta to seize Rize from Yomo for him. He then flees with Rize into the countryside and attempts to nurse her back to health.

– After years of captivity and starvation, she takes time to recover. He views his actions as penance. 

– When she finally remembers that he started this by, you know, dropping steel beams on her, she is (rightly) furious. She thinks of this as the worst betrayal, and tells him that just because he didn’t rape her like his father would have, doesn’t mean he’s a good person.

– Furuta knows she’s right, but also tells her that his jealousy was not his primary motivation. V was after her, and he thought death might be better than having V catch her again.

– Rize is appalled at his idea of ‘mercy’ and the choice that wasn’t his to make. She accuses him of making excuses, which…he isn’t exactly, because he’s telling the truth, but she’s not wrong when she tells him she hates him. 

– Furuta, ashamed and quite cognizant of the depth of his sins, asks what she wants him to do. She tells him to die, and leaves.

– Furuta stays away, because she clearly hates him, and he can’t say he doesn’t deserve it. But soon enough V catches onto her. 

– He sacrifices his pride to ask Kaneki for help, and nearly dies trying to save her, due to his advanced aging. 

– FYI, The revelation to CCG about the Washuus, instead of Dragon, is the situation that causes ghouls and humans to unite. 

– Furuta thinks he was saved by Kaneki’s kagune during the battle, but he’s wrong. It was Rize’s. He doesn’t learn that for a long time, though.

– In the aftermath, as Furuta works to establish peace with TSC, Rize (who works with Kimi on food development) approaches him and asks if they can talk. They rekindle their friendship first. 

– Eventually, Rize and Furuta acknowledge – with a push from Touka – that they might have a path forward. 

– Rize, never one to wait, promptly asks Furuta to elope.  

– At the end, Rize is pregnant with their first child at the same time Touka is pregnant with her second. 

You’re killing me, but it’s cool because I want to be killed by Fruit Fluff. 

– Furuta is very protective of his kids, especially Yuuko. Rize chides him for this instinct of his.

– Yuuko, however, is as rambunctious and mischievous as her dad. The amount of times Fruit has woken up to his face colored with makeup is too many to count.

– Rize, the traitor, sits and watches Yuuko draw art on Daddy. She even assists.

– Ryuu is a soft kid, the ‘Kaneki’ type, as both Rize and Furuta have noted. 

– Ryuu is very much a Mommy’s boy, and practically worships Rize. Furuta encourages this. 

– As a result, Ryuu was quite fearful when his kagune manifested, and Fururize didn’t exactly know how to handle him. Fortunately, Uncle Kaneki swooped in and gave them advice.

– Every night, Furuta kisses his kids atop their foreheads, and reflects how lucky he is to have Rize, Ryuu, and Yuuko.

– Every night, Rize nibbles Furuta’s shoulder as a way to say how much she loves him.
