(Honestly, I dunno how good of an idea a vote in the comments is since folks are pretty much freaking out still and there's a lot of unreasonable theories getting tossed around.)

The entire scene really isn't ambiguous like some of the other characters, since we see Hide gushing blood everywhere and later covered in a shroud (ala the main image for the season) and being very slowly carried through the ranks of CCG while an acoustic version of "Unravel" plays and Kaneki looks resigned/tired. If Hide were alive, the tone of the scene makes no sense.
