I was one of those who was thinking the kiss bite was too far fetched and then saw that post of cut off screen kisses and it really fits, even before we saw Hide's face when I first saw that cut off panel of them in the sewer I was was freaking out like Holy Shit they did?? I know the one book they parallel even has a kiss, and Hide's wounds intense on his mouth, it feels pretty reasonable even if we joke for fun

It is absolutely what happened. I’m 99% convinced that it’s a kiss and the only reason it’s not 100% is because it hasn’t directly been shown to us. We will probably find out what happened exactly in the sewers when we find out Hide’s full story. What I’m curious about is whether or not they talked anymore while in the sewers, maybe Hide admitted his love too? Because you’ve gotta remember that Kaneki remembers more than we were shown, since the flashback he has as Reaper shows more broken dialogue and the cut off kiss panel where Hide’s hand is on the other shoulder. And it’s not like Ishida forgot what hand it was because these two pages were right next to each other in chapter 68.

Notice Kaneki’s posture and Hide’s hand? Yeah. It’s a kiss and Kaneki is 100% in control of himself when it happens. And remembering this is what made Kaneki suicidal despite having made new friends and having Touka tell him “see you soon.”

Not to mention, the text on that page is not even what we see Hide saying originally. The only way he can be remembering those extra pieces of dialogue and Hide saying “eat me” is if he remembered beyond what we saw in original chapter 136:

“Since there is only one way - eat me?” Then the next chronological thing would be Hide saying the second page of the :Re scene, perhaps repeating the “can you give it all you’ve got one more time” line.

Then sometime after that you have Kaneki sitting up face-to-face with Hide, Hide’s other hand is now resting on his other shoulder. His wrist is not bent or stressed, it’s just resting there. “I’m going to show you that you’re worth saving, worth living.”

How Hide? How did you do that? How did you convince the man who just mere moments before then was flipping out over being consumed by his own cannibalistic power? Did you tell him something? Something about your history? Your feelings? Or did you only kiss him? I need to know. 

And if you think about it, Kaneki never actually says that he can’t remember what happened. All you’ve got after that scene (in the original) is Kaneki saying:

Chapter 136 wants to imply that he lost control of himself and ate Hide but the flashbacks in :Re tell us that that didn’t actually happen and they spoke more after it cut to black. But somehow Kaneki had been rendered unconscious.

How? Did Hide do it? Did whoever helped Hide get out of there do it? Because it wasn’t Kaneki losing control. He didn’t even eat Hide’s nose or above his mouth and was delicate enough not to kill him while literally eating flesh off of his throat and chest.

And then we have chapter 164:

Kaneki isn’t even surprised here, he just looks sad. Ashamed. Like, sure its possible he doesn’t remember how much he did but that is the face of someone who is owning up to what they did, not facing it for the first time.

Kaneki is seriously not surprised at all by what he sees. He’s just really sad. And then thanks Hide for showing him.

“You always hid the things I didn’t want to see. Always protected me.” How could Kaneki have known that if all he remembers was encountering his very human very normal best friend in the sewer and then suddenly he was gone and he could taste blood.

I call bullshit. Kaneki knows way more than he is letting on about Hide. He probably also knows how Hide feels about him, too, if Hide brought it up in the sewers. He might not know everything but he sure as hell knows more than we do.
