 Abstract In this note we show finite-time blowup of radially symmetric solutions to the quasilinear parabolic-parabolic two-dimensional Keller-Segel system for any positive mass. We prove this result by slightly adapting M. Winkler’s method, which he introduced in (Winkler in J. Math. Pures Appl., 10.1016/j.matpur.2013.01.020, 2013) for the semilinear Keller-Segel system in dimensions at least three, to the two-dimensional setting. This is done in the case of nonlinear diffusion and also in the case of nonlinear cross-diffusion provided the nonlinear chemosensitivity term is assumed not to decay. Moreover, it is shown that the above-mentioned non-decay assumption is essential with respect to keeping the finitetime blowup result. Namely, we prove that without the non-decay assumption solutions exist globally in time, however infinite-time blowup may occur.

 We remark that H in (1.3) is well-defined due to the positivity of β in [0, ∞). Moreover, assume that ψ(s) ≥ c0 s,
 
 s ≥ 0.

 Next we introduce the well-known Lyapunov functional for the Keller-Segel system.     1 1 F (u, v) := |∇v|2 + v2 − uv + G(u) (1.7) 2 Ω 2 Ω Ω Ω is a Lyapunov functional for (1.1) with dissipation rate

 More precisely, any classical solution to (1.1) satisfies  d  F u(·, t), v(·, t) = −D u(·, t), v(·, t) dt
