He wanted to stay alone in order to keep those safe who are important to him. That's why he left Anteiku and created the Anti-Aogiri group. When he met Touka she managed it to change his mind completely. He decided to return to Anteiku, disbanded the Anti-Aogiri group and gave up on staying alone. Of course this didn't stop him from defending Anteiku against the CCG.

It seems like you misinterpreted what I said. I didn't say that he already gave up on dying against Arima. I just said that it's going to happen eventually because Kaneki would die otherwise and that it will be partially because of Touka's influence.

And as I said, you are taking this too seriously. Of course a smile won't just change his mind that easily. But the meaning of that smile was "Please don't die, you are important to me." and that's going to take effect in some way.

Oh I am taking serious what Kaneki went through. It's just that suicide is a cowardly way to escape from your problems and "dying in a cool way" is something very childish to wish for. He did suffer a lot in his past but currently his life isn't that bad at all and it can always become better in the future. Whining about what happened in the past doesn't lead to anything. And if he would just take his time to think about it he would understand that it wasn't his fault that Amon and Hide "died", it was unavoidable. Lastly there are a lot of people who deeply care about him and he needs to realise that.
