User blog comment:Avolling/The Good Guys Will Not Die (Because Tite Kubo Is A Pushover)/@comment-1904799-20100323225757

I'm not saying that so-and-so should be "Incapacitated" and so-and-so should really be "Deceased"... my point is as Nick D Wolfwood pointed out. Hiyori was cut in half. She's alive. Harribel was stabbed. She's dead. This is fact, and we've become so reliant on the idea that the good guys will live that if (and when) Tite Kubo kills one of the good guys off, we're going to be backpedaling.
