^ Shuu's only known living relative is his father, and while we've seen that Shuu can be rash and make hasty decisions, his father is very level-headed. It wouldn't make sense for his character to show up on Rue. As we don't know the reasons behind Irimi and probably Koma showing up, it's extremely incorrect to say they have no point. It's likely that everyone currently fighting Ui and the others will be the foundation for Kaneki's new post-Arima group, and in the eyes of ghouls, having two well-known gang leaders under his command adds a lot of legitimacy to his campaign, much as it added legitimacy to Anteiku when they ran the 20th ward. Additionally, it makes perfect sense for them to be affiliated with Shuu in this fight - not only is (or, well, was) he the wealthiest ghoul in the series (so he could afford to house them while they laid low), he was a regular of Anteiku and demonstrated loyalty to them, even if just for Kaneki's sake.

Everything thus far in the series makes perfect sense, so long as you don't expect Ishida to hand all the information over to you on a silver platter the moment a character shows up. Patience, young grasshoppers. This arc and these fights are necessary to set up the endgame.
