Oh- [ that's right, most don't know Kaneki used to be human, not anymore. Those who did have left or forgotten it because of the Porter, and right now Kaneki is just a ghoul. Kaneki touches hiw own chin with a small smile ] Hm. I was born human.

I was turned into a ghoul artificially, through an experiment, when I was eighteen. Well, technically, a Half Ghoul. [ but before then Kaneki certainly was human. He ate normal food, had a normal life; he was so pure and gentle back then, and to an extent Kaneki still considers that his "pure self", untainted by the world he is forced to live in now ]
