People who took the disappear statements literally are forgetting that TG uses psychological symbolism very heavily. "Kaneki" is little more than a Jungian shadow embodying the traits Sasaki feared and rejected after losing his memory.

It is true though that Haise will "disappear," just not literally. "Haise Sasaki" was the persona he developed in isolation from his memories of this past. When his memories return, however, he will be Ken Kaneki again, with new experiences joining with the old to allow him to be the bridge between worlds he originally sought to be.
