I find this strange!

Kaneki had a goal when he first faced Arima! (Hide)

Now he would face Arima with the goal of dying!

He has been given an insane amount of information and new capabilities. He still wants to protect & save his friends, so 'using his new capabilities to once & for all protect those he cares about & keep protecting them, is imo within his capabalities now', but he wants to save them this half-assed again & then die in a flashy way. That reasoning of Kaneki, puts me on a whole other track, then what i've heard up until now.

To me that looks more like he believes that he's the OEK now & since he has to kill the OEK  once and for all, there's only one man with a chance of doing that at this point. Instead of playing the 'flashy' hero, he is actually playing the role of the 'underdog', putting an end to a legend & by that act, create an opportunity for ghouls & humans to coexist. (although that sounds unlikely, i believe that's the naïve belief he stubbornly holds on to rn!)
