Quinx Squad
Humans wielding ghoul power to hunt the monsters they resemble.
The Quinx Squad is a specialized experimental unit within the Commission of Counter Ghoul, formed during the events following the Anteiku incident. Unlike standard investigators who rely solely on weapons and tactics, these operatives are humans surgically implanted with ghoul organs, granting them kagune abilities while retaining their human consciousness. Their role serves as a bridge between species, allowing the CCG to combat ghouls using powers that mimic their enemies. However, this existence comes at a heavy psychological and physical cost, making them one of the most tragic yet effective forces in the organization's arsenal.
Lore & Background
The Quinx Squad is a special team of CCG investigators that underwent a similar procedure to Haise Sasaki, allowing them to obtain the special abilities of ghouls in order to fight them but still being able to live as normal humans. Haise Sasaki is the mentor of the Quinx Squad.
Reader's Guide
The squad appears in the sequel series Tokyo Ghoul:re, which follows an amnesiac Kaneki under the new identity of Haise Sasaki.
