beyond living one more day.

* [[Cycle of Revenge]]: A central theme of the series. Many Investigators and Ghouls alike are driven by their bitterness over losing loved ones, and lash out at the other species in revenge. CCG actively encourages this, often taking in children orphaned by Ghouls with the intention of raising them to be future Investigators. Many Ghouls, likewise, seek to kill Investigators to avenge their murdered family or friends.

* [[I'm a Humanitarian]]: The ghouls are said to be "monsters in human shape" and can breed with humans, what can mean they retain enough of their human nature to still be considered human. And they eat humans, so they're still cannibals.
