Kaneki has been an unreliable narrator for so long that you still take his word literally? It’s a way of interpretation the story, yes, but don’t force me to also see it in that light, because I don’t believe in that bull. He’s sick of being nothing. He’s sick of controlling himself and being controlled. He wants to live true to himself now. He wants to be loved by the actions he chooses to do in this state, because it means people will love his real self. And if so, he will die “happy” and not in agony like before. He’s not saying he wants to drop dead this instant. If he did, he would jump out of the building and be done with it. But he does feel that life is hopeless. And, as such, it’s “okay” to die. Did Kaneki want to die when CCG raided Anteiku? Yes, obviously. Does Kaneki want to die now? Nope. At least, in my opinion, he does not. He wants to be saved from his depressive self. He wants to be able to hope.
