15. Kishou Arima vs. Eto Yoshimura

Kishou Arima fights Eto Yoshimura. Ends at 0:42.

Kishou Arima was the only known human able to fight Eto in her kakuja form. His reputation made Eto eager to fight him when he arrived with his squad. However, since their encounter years ago, they had been acting together in secret, creating a ghoul that could unite humans and ghouls together and create a new world order.

14. Noro vs. CCG

Noro fights the CCG.

During the Aogiri arc, at the beginning of the CCG's attack on the Aogiri hideout, Noro waited until his clock showed midnight before he started to act. After the fight between Ayato Kirishima and Kaneki, Noro picked up the "half-killed" Ayato and killed the CCG squad that discovered the pair in the process. Out of all the ghouls acknowledged by the CCG, Noro was considered to be one of the strongest, excluding the One-Eyed Owl and Shachi.

13. Haise Sasaki vs. Kanae von Rosewald

Haise Sasaki fights Kanae von Rosewald. Starts at 0:06.

12. Enji Koma and Kaya Irimi vs. CCG

Enji Koma and Kaya Irimi fight the CCG.

After Anteiku came under attack by the CCG investigators, Koma and Irimi assumed their ghoul personalities once again and brutally attacked the CCG investigators to defend their home. Unfortunately, Koma was fatally injured by Mougan Tanakamaru using his SS-rated quinque, Higher Mind.

11. Juuzou Suzuya vs. Big Madam

Juuzou Suzuya fights Big Madam.

As one of Big Madam's former executioners, Suzuya was trained to become a proficient killer. During his youth, Suzuya would try to satisfy Big Madam as much as possible, always with a smile, as Big Madam sought perfection and would torture Suzuya depending on the "scores" he received from her. During the Auction arc, Big Madam was eventually killed by Juuzou's squad.

10. Touka Kirishima and Hinami Fueguchi vs. Kureo Mado

Touka Kirishima and Hinami Fueguchi fight Kureo Mado.

Mado was disgusted at Ryouko's and Hinami's care for one another, as he saw all ghouls as monsters and thus was disgusted at them for "imitating human behaviors." Mado sadistically enjoyed provoking Hinami with a quinque made from her parent's kagune and found her kagune to be even more fascinating than her parents'. Ultimately, he was cornered by Hinami and Touka and killed as revenge for killing Hinami's parents.

9. Kaneki Ken vs. Yukinori Shinohara

Kaneki Ken fights Yukinori Shinohara. Starts at 1:00.

During the raid on Kanou's lab, Shinohara was suddenly engaged by Kaneki and activated his Arata armor in time to lessen the sudden, powerful impact. After a short bout of battle, Shinohara successfully cut Kaneki down, damaging his kakuja kagune; however, Kaneki continued on with his usual kagune form, causing the investigator to be annoyed at the number of his kakuhou. Fighting the already-exhausted investigator, Kaneki quickly overpowered him and left him near death.

8. Touka Kirishima vs. Shuu Tsukiyama

Touka Kirishima fights Shuu Tsukiyama.

When Shuu Tsukiyama lured Kaneki by kidnapping Kimi Nishino, Nishiki's girlfriend, Nishiki, and Kaneki tried to fight him, but they were effortlessly beaten down until Touka arrived and, after eating Kaneki's flesh, was able to turn the fight around and defeat Tsukiyama easily.

7. Ginshi Shirazu vs. Noro

Ginshi Shirazu fights Noro.

Noro's shocking regenerative ability made him one of the most formidable ghouls in the series. When Shirazu's squad encountered him, they worked together to defeat him, but unfortunately, Shirazu died, though his sacrifice is what gave the Quinx squad victory. This is one of the most gut-wrenching moments that deserve a rewatch.

6. Kaneki Ken vs. Ayato Kirishima

Kaneki Ken fights Ayato Kirishima. Starts at 0:15.

When Kaneki confronted Ayato about his false pretenses and true motives for joining the Aogiri Tree, Ayato became offended by this but was in denial, despite the fact that Kaneki was telling the truth. The resulting fight was entertaining due to the fact that Ayato, for the first time, didn't get his way and Kaneki pushed him to the edge.

5. Kaneki Ken vs. Amon Koutarou

Kaneki Ken fights Amon Koutarou. Starts at 2:02 and Ends at 3:40.

Kaneki was the only ghoul that Amon did not seem to have any real hatred or scorn for, although he had a lot of questions that he wanted to ask him. After fighting Kaneki during the Owl Suppression Operation, Amon lost his arm. Even after being severely wounded by Kaneki's kakuja, Amon persists in staying alive in order to prevent Kaneki from becoming a murderer.

4. Kaneki Ken vs. Nimura Furuta

Kaneki Ken fights Nimura Furuta. Ends at 1:53.

Upon being released from Dragon and confronting Furuta in the sewers, Kaneki bears him no ill will and even states that Furuta bests him in intellect and cunning. However, knowing that Furuta stands between him and protecting everyone, Kaneki declares that he'll defeat Furuta in one of the best fights in the series involving the two kings.

3. Yoshimura vs. CCG

Yoshimura fights the CCG.

After the assault on Anteiku began, Yoshimura began slaughtering the nearby CCG forces, and after killing numerous investigators, he began to intimidate them greatly until he was confronted by Shinohara and Kuroiwa with a combination attack. This fight proved how powerful the One-Eyed Owl really was, and it is worth watching again.

2. Kaneki Ken vs. Kishou Arima

Kaneki Ken fights Kishou Arima. Starts at 0:09 and Ends at 4:42.

Arima often sparred with Kaneki as a means of training and gave him advice when he was in need of help. Arima claimed in his final confrontation with Kaneki as Haise Sasaki that he could have killed him 645 times but chose to spare him and provoke him in order to get him to fight him seriously.

1. Jason vs. Kaneki Ken

Jason fights Kaneki Ken. Ends at 2:55.

Definitely the best battle in the series, Jason kidnapped Kaneki from Anteiku in order to torture him to satisfy his sadistic pleasure. Ironically, Jason, who initially believed he weakened Kaneki, was overpowered and defeated by him, becoming the catalyst for his transformation. This moment is one of the most rewatched in the anime due to how satisfying it was.
