ishida-why:

Ishida and his symbolism stuff etc. makes me crazy (in a good way of course).

We probably have Eto as the Tree of Life (Yggdrasil) (x) and the serpent in the Garden of Eden (x). She wrote a book called the “

The Hanged Man’s MacGuffin (x) and Kaneki is associated with the Hanged Man Tarot Number (you can see it on his arms (x)). Now the new book title of Eto is a reference to Odin (x) who is associated with the Hanged Man’s Tarot Card and Knowledge (x). The whole Garden of Eden story from the bible is associated with knowledge and apples symbolise it. Three people (Eto, Touka and Kaneki were shown with an apple in the manga or official art (x) (x)).

Symbolism, Symbolism, Symbolism ….THIS MANGA KILLS ME

Also I believe Furuta is associated with Huginn and Muninn from norse mythology (the ravens who accompanied Odin and bringed him information about what’s going on over the world), just look at his trump card.

Though Ishida could draw there some other birds, maybe doves??

It gets even better. Furuta’s calendar picture shows him with a crayfish which you can also see on the moon tarot card (a stage which we haven’t reached yet; here’s a good post about it (x)). We know Furuta and Arima are both now involved with V and the funniest thing is that the moon tarot card SHOWS A SUN AND A MOON AND A DOG AND A WOLF…and yes there’s sun and moon symbolism in Arima’s and Furuta’s names (x) and there’s still the ringing bell quote under Arima’s picture and therefore the “wolf” ringing bell theory (x).

So in short: I don’t even know anymore. Is this all a coincidence or not?
