Yeah If you bend it that way, it's bound to be a justified act towards Hide!

Well i'm playing with that idea for now!

But next to that, I see Hide's sacrifice as putting a mirror in front of Kaneki. Because Kaneki is more the type to resort to suicide to save a friend, while Hide is the type to relentlessly pursue the solution to make the most miserable people snap out of their miserable state & give them new hope. He put that mirror in front of Kaneki & showed him 'Look, You're not the only one who can sacrifice himself for a friend, so there is no need for you to do the same anymore...' (if that makes sense)

So in that sense, I can see Hide's sacrifice as an act that prevented Kaneki from sacrificing himself in the 20th ward raid for his 'Anteiku' friends.

He's a bit like a Nemesis, when a friend dies by someones hands, he puts more effort in bringing the same harm to that person. When he goes 'Nemesis', he sees that he hurts his friends by doing that & wants to kill himself, because off the grieve he has given them.

But I'm still in the dark about why he devoured Eto's kagune, to decide on suicide. That's why I see the 'suicidal tendency' in a more symbolic way. (Haise's persona killed by Arima & release The Kaneki :D Well that might sound fanboyish, but we'll know pretty soon)
