    Lousoix
    Minfillia
    Gosetsu & Tsukuyomi
    Zenos
    Nanamo
    Gaius
    Sokoban
    Papalymo (TBD)
    and the Warrior of Light

    Nevermind Hildibrand. One Deus-Ex-Machina or two I can abide but this is plain amateurish. You will be hard pressed in getting me to shed a tear over the next person to die when the odds show they are more likely to return than stay dead. Thanks.
    - louisoix is dead, what we see is not him... it clearly explain by tiamat when she talk of bahamut.
    - minfillia, when did she die? she was absorbed by hyadelin, never she was dead dude.
    - gosetsu and tsukuyomi, the movie rule, if you don't see the body they aren't dead...
    - zenos, the one we fight is not zenos it's elidibus and the zenos elezen can be explain by the fact that zenos did become a primordial and they are being that don't die that easily... they are spirit in a sense.
    - nanamo, we wasn't sure she was killed, we do see her fall and no one have check if she was dead for sure!
    - Gaius, same did you see the body?
    - sokoban, who?
    - papalymo is dead and that will not change
    - warrior of light, we did die? when? i means outside when we wipe doing stuff *tease*

Zenos because so far he hasn't even done anything, so it makes me question why bring him back at all. And Yotsuyu because her arc is why I'm not a fan of Stormblood's MSQ, with Square spending so much time and trying so hard to make me feel sorry for a complete monster of a person.

    With Louisoix and Gaius, they don't bother me because we never actually saw them die.
    like said for nanamo we did see her fall, but do we have check if she was dead, plus drugs that make people look like dead is not that rare.
    yotsuyu story didn't make me feel sorry for her, i understand how she did turn like this and in the same situation, i guess i will have done the same... sold to a brothel by her familly, treated like shit and only used for cash.... naturally she will hate her country and people of her country... yes she did horrible thing, but well world is not white and black.... it's full of grey and she did get a really dark grey life that for sure. i just did loved how she did get her revenge over her familly, in the end she did reach her true objective.
