I see nothing good in killing off Kanda. After all, he is the only asocial character in the lot. And I love him for that. Even if he were ugly, I would have still disliked him being death. I think I would get along much better with such a person than with someone like Allen or (tch) Miranda...This is why he is an important character. It is simply because he is the one and only who people of the different kind would associate with. He just puts it simple -" I do my own, you do yours however you want. Just don't get into my way."
This is why he is liked by me. However, as I read some comments I really think I might be one in a million. I would appreciate it if they kill him off without ruining his character. I would prefer him dead than a slimy thing such as Miranda or a silly one like Lavi (although I appreciate their existences and style, I wouldn't sacrifice Kanda and leave them alive...Moreover, they are supposed to be at a lower level.)
Btw, about the chapter and everything... I am not that interested in Kanda's love life to be honest... I wanted him to be looking for revenge for someone who killed his father or family or his original mentor. Love just...I don't know... Kinda too soft. But it seems like mangakas need this type of character to have something soft in the past (Byakuya in Bleach, who should be the same type in a way has this thing with his dead wife and stuff...), so I will try to ignore my disliking of this.
About the character development. I feel like the mangaka has put up a lot of effort to have one of each types of characters/people. This is why I doubt she will kill off Kanda. I suppose she has some better plans for him and I hope they are good ones (and that she doesn't ruin this silent, antisocial, stiff and untalkative guy).

OH, and by the way, Cross is too smart to be gone as easily. Trust me. I see your point here, you are mad because you liked the manga and all but disliked the fangirls. You have to bear with it, because they are everywhere. I have been disgusted by musicians, artists and actors because of their fanbase. If you hate them so much, just ignore them entirely. It works when you get used to doing it.
@ poznati
I agree that reviving all characters is lame. As I said, Kanda would be fine dead ;) However, Cross has planned this all along, so he's never even been hurt if you ask me. There are plenty of ways to simulate one's death even with a good amount of blood in there. He is just getting a rest somewhere, not wanting to take a side for now, because he needs to see what will happen. However, no matter how obvious it is for me, your opinions may vary (not only to poznati).
