Again, you're seriously telling me that Fushi never coming back and just leaving his friend Bon to his fate is a good thing? Please explain to me why exactly because it's bewildering that you think it's good storytelling to have Fushi lose another friend to a preventable death, something his other dead friends weren't fortunate to have.

"Yeah, it's good development to sacrifice Bon's life which Fushi could've prevented but didn't because of plot-induced stupidity. Don't worry coz he'll just revive him anyway."

Out of all the character deaths we've had so far, Bon's demise was the only one presented to us that Fushi can stop from happening.

1) March died by a fatal arrow shot;
2) Parona was killed by Hayase without Fushi knowing;
3) Gugu was crushed by rubble;
4) Pioran died of old age;
5) Tonari was fatally wounded by a Nokker while Fushi was poisoned to sleep.

And yet Bon, the first character that Fushi can save from dying, will die due to PIS and you call it good storytelling.

You saying "it was the only one he couldve prevented" is very silly
He couldve prevented the Gugu one as well and it was incredibly forced.

Shidoteki said:
Many of them he couldve prevented but just wasnt there at the best moment to do so.

It doesnt matter if Bon dies or not in terms of Fushi saving him, what matters is that the plot progression has become much worse since he didnt die.

This episode was easily the worst one so far in both seasons and the impact wasnt there at all.
My point isnt that he shouldve died, my point is that the anime wouldve been much better with the impact of him dying SINCE its been lacking a lot of impact and emotion even though its a very dramatic anime.
And now even the pacing is bad too.

I think it wouldve been nice if Fushi couldve been alone with his thoughts and finally realize the truth when hed get Bons body so we could finally leave this terrible arc, rather than continue with this crappy and shallow church stuff.
He wouldnt have become a worse character with Bon dying, since he still wouldve found out the truth from the Nokkers.
