Ken Kaneki
Character from Tokyo Ghoul. Ken is overall the same as he is in the series. Originally a shy and reserved young man with a love of reading novels (so much so he studied Japanese literature at Kamii University). His life gets turned upside down after a particularly bad date that leads him to being hospitalized and having a ghoul's kakuhou transplated into him, which led to him being turned into a half-ghoul.
While Ken knows of Leyla in passing due to her working for Anteiku, the coffee shop he becomes a regular customer of, and then later when she attempts and fails at saving him from Rize, they don't officially meet until he gets out of the hospital and begins to realize what the changes to his appetite mean for him. Leyla comes to visit him one day when he's at his lowest point to check-in on him (mostly to make sure if he remembers her being a ghoul or not) and is the one to bring him to Yoshimura after learning of his peculiar circumstance.
The two of them quickly develop feelings for each other and enjoy a brief relationship before everything gets torn apart and snowballs after Ken is abducted by Aogiri Tree.
