Its not the first time for that to happen. Kaneki, Takizawa and Rize all disappeared seemingly dead just to come back at some later time. Shuu and Nishiki seemed dead and turned out to be alive after a few chapters. Yoshimura and Shinohara could have simply died, but instead they are being kept alive.

Some people expect Hide to be alive and to appear again later in the story, too. Im not a big fan of that idea.

Imo it's ok to trick the readers once or twice like that, but if "dead" characters keep coming back it really gets boring at some point. It stops being suprising if you just expect everyone to be alive unless you clearly see that someone dies. Thats why some people still believed Matsumae was still alive even after her death was confirmed.
