A death balance in anime??

[Blight]

Yes, the cop-out ruins the whole point of someone dying. I remember watching DBZ for the first time and when someone would dye it was a big deal. But later, when someone would die I would be like ?So what, they'll be back.? And I?m starting to worry about the same thing happening in Hakusho, not sure yet. One thing I hate is when weapons are used and every one seems to be just knocked out. I really hate that. But as you have described it, it sounds like you have a problem with the predictability of how death is handled rather than balance issues.
