RE: Killing characters

in #writing7 years ago

I really like the story but it had a lot of typos in it or it's a secret code to crack, who knows? I do however want to say that as a reader, I don't mind important characters dying like main protagonist and other fundamental side characters. What I do mind is that it's a very thin line between killing a character in a way that doesn't mess with the story's progression or the ending (if they die near the end ofc). I have seen many shows and read countless novels where they really mess the story up because they couldn't adapt the story-line to the death of the character. For example, I watched an anime called akame ga kill, (yes I'm using an anime as an example. They still have storyline's.) and everything was going fine till I reached episode 19 or near the end. They killed almost every single character, the "supposed" main protagonist and that pretty much F****** up the entire show! All that effort and great episodes went down the drain because of a terrible ending because of the fact that they couldn't do the "killing" part right. My main point is, if you're gonna kill a character, make sure you do it in a way that still gives the reader/viewer an awesome finale.

I really tried to be careful not to make any typos but I noticed towards the end I had made some typos. Were some left?

You can use anime as an example. I should get familiar with that one, as it could be interesting. Sometimes killing characters has a deeper, special meaning and will give an "ooh"-moment when you notice what's going on :)
