I understand what you are trying to say Ten Tailed Fox. Sorry to say but I have to disagree to what you are saying about the most powerful weapon in the world is the words that come out of your mouth. As the saying goes "action speak louder than words", which I think that it makes better sense than just simply using words. I know that the villans actually started off as a good guy and tragic things happened to them, plus a series of bad choices, they became bad people. However, just because they choose the wrong path of their life and had believed that the path that they are chose is correct for a long period of time, it is not likely to change their mindset through words. I am not saying that they will not change their mindset. What I am saying is that they can change their mindset and their way of life after a certain amount of time. This can be done by them reflecting whether their actions and mindset are wrong back then and when they approach a different method, their everyday lifestyle changes for the better or at least they feel better and are more comfortable with the change. Of course this takes time for them to turn from 80% bad guy to 100% good guy. As for killing off characters, it is essential for every action anime to be good. For example, fairy tail. This series had a good start, but due to the protagonist always winning without anyone killed, it lost the sense of danger and became very predictable. That is also one of the reasons why this anime breeds so many haters and is currently going downhill. Killing of characters is essential for protagonist to have good character development. This is so that they can learn from their mistakes and mature from this incident. Take a look at naruto, he has shown rapid growth as a character after jiraiya's death, unlike natsu from fairy tail who has not matured a bit from episode 1. Killing of Maito Gai will show naruto that whenever there is war they is bound to have casualties, telling naruto to not be so naïve that he can protect everyone. This is also to let naruto futher learns the importance of peace by not having war and to cherish his friends and anyone close to him by not letting their efforts go to waste. All of this is essential for naruto to become hokage as the current naruto is still a bit naïve.
