I don't really understand your reaction... I mean, this is a shocking and brutal death, sure. But Tokyo Ghoul's motto has always been to show that battles weren't necessarily heroic and glorious. Just think about Mado's death (killed by a little girl, though he was supposed to be a very talented inspector).

Tokyo Ghoul shows a realistic war. And there isn't any hero protected by gods in a real war. Every character can die a shitty death, no matter how strong or cool he is. One mistake is enough... That's why people who always say "Lol, Arima iz so strong, nobody can beat him, he will pawn everything" make me cringe. They have not understood how this manga works.

The problem of Hairu's squad was that her men were probably used to let her do the dirty job. They probably believed that she was invincible. And when someone who is supposed to be invincible is getting stabbed right in front of you... well, I can understand why they didn't know how to react. Also, when I see Hairu's personality, I wouldn't be surprised that she asked her men never interfering in her fights. That's why CCG's troops are getting annihilated for now : they just don't have the solidarity of the Tsukiyama family. And that's why I believe this operation could be a huge failure, the biggest failure of the CCG since a long time (Washuu or not, I don't think Matsuri will be able to get forgiven for the death of a "Nazgül").

Still, I recognize it was not a very satisfying end for Hairu. But, hey, these are the rules : if you make mistakes, you pay for them.
