Yo. The matchup would work pretty well if Taiyo has all his optional equipment. With both parties having full prior knowledge on each other.
I say this cause this does give the potential for Taiyo to blast him to effectively nothing earlier on in a fight with his TSB (True Spring Blooming) energy projection or subdue him before he gets to grow much. While Kaneki would understand letting himself get touched could quickly get him annihilated. Allowing him to intentionally play the long game especially since he'd know of True Spring Blooming's physical strain on Taiyo's stamina.

Hmm, in order to be able to deal damage, Kaneki needs to use RE, but to do so, he himself has to deal damage. At the same time, as I understand it, Taiyo can kill Kaneki with one touch. However, high-mid regen can save him from that, can't it?

He can but not all of his moves could.
Normal punches and slashes would be more along the lines of making holes in him or reducing him to meat chunks with his slashes (since due to the speed inferiority, Taiyo can’t slice him into dust or something absurd like that)

His cherry blossom fangs or Yae energy blasts effectively function like Ki blasts from dragonball, which probably just murks Kaneki despite his high mid just that they’re produced from his fists or his sword Yae.
They aren’t an opening move for Taiyo. For him to start with this he’d have to be somewhere he has no need to care for collateral damage (as at minimum he has hundreds of meter range with it, while at the highest extent the blast extends for kilometers)
With other moves I don’t think Taiyo kills in one touch, but he could in just a handful of attacks.
Or just grab him once if he ever tags his arms or legs then have free reign to wail on him.

I would say the match doesn’t work if in every scenario Post Dragon Kaneki would survive initial onslaught from Taiyo.
If it’s arguable if Kaneki can. Then the match functions. Since Kaneki’s odds of victory increase by a lot as the fight progresses in large part to the 2x gap in speed initially.

Well, Taiyo definitely shouldn't drag this match out, but I think it'll be cool. Send me the link when you make the match
