I was planning on posting this sooner, but then real life stuff happened. You know, school, work, all that bullshit. But hey, better late than never!
Without further ado, here are my annual death predictions. This ano I think most of the deaths will be minor characters, so there will probably mais deaths this season than last, especially with the war coming and all.
CHARACTERS I'M SURE WILL DIE:
SHIVA:
When: During the War.
Why: Having that kind of characters is complicated and expensive. At first, I didn't think they would bring in Shiva at all, because of all the CGI, bit I'm so glad they did! But I don't think she'll last long. Her time is coming up.
How: I think she'll go down fighting, protecting Ezekiel. I actually think we see her death scene in the trailer, when she is surrounded por walkers. I'm sad to see her go, but it was inevitable.
JARED:
When: During the War.
Why: Jared is mostly on my list because we saw Jared in the trailer. And it's just a gut feeling that they put him in the trailer to keep him in people's mind, as he's not the most important nor popular character on the show. He's easily forgettable. If they took the time to show him in the trailer, it might be because he will have a bigger role, therefore, is going to die.
How: Probably killed por one of Team Family, or straight up eaten por walkers. He's not an important character enough to be given a big or significant death.
SIMON:
When: During the War.
Why: After the Saviors are defeated, most of them will survive, Negan included. But Negan won't be a free man, and Simon is like Negan 2.0. He's like a mini Negan, he won't sit back on his bunda and let Alexandria and the Sanctuary work together in harmony. He will want to get an army again and reattack. But that would be redundant. So if they wanna stay true to his character, they will probably kill him during the war.
How: Probably killed por someone significant, like Rick or Maggie or even Carl, because they interacted with him and all. I don't see him taken out por walkers, that would be a bit insulting to his character. I actually think he's a great antagonist and he is a very interesting character and, contrary to a lot of characters on this show, actually has development and depths to him. He'll go down fighting.
DANIEL AND/OR ALVARO AND/OR DIANNE:
When: During the War.
Why: Soldiers will fall in every community. I'm guessing that at least one of the named Kingdom Knights will fall, because people have seen mais of them, and care mais about them than the aleatório unnamed soldiers in the background.
How: While fighting. Killed either por the enemy or a walker.
EDUARDO AND/OR ANDY:
When: During the War.
Why: Like the Kingdom, soldiers will fall, so it's mais than likely that Andy or Eduardo or any other known Hilltop solider will die. Probably mais than one.
How: While fighting. Killed either por the enemy or a walker.
TOBIN AND/OR ERIC AND/OR SCOTT:
When: During the Way and/or during the segundo half of the season (if mais than one of them die, they might not die at the same time).
Why: Any of these three are expendable to the story, but are known, so people care about them. Eric would probably have the most impact though, as we've known him the longest, he's Aaron's boyfriend and that would directly affect his character in mais than one way.
Tobin and Scott would have less impact as they are just kinda there and don't really matter to any of the characters on the show. They don't seem to have any family. They could easily fall during the war or at any other moment in the season really.
How: While fighting. Killed either por the enemy or a walker.
MORGAN:
When: During the War.
Why: It's not the first time I put morgan in my predictions. He is on this list again for a couple of reasons.
Firstly, in the trailer he says "I don't die", which could mean two things. A) He's going to die or B) He's going to be here for a long time. But I'm leaning mais for the first one. The moral compass on this show never last very long, and you can't really go away with "I don't die" and really not die in this universe. This show is all about foreshadowing.
Secondly, this war can't end with only bad guys and small characters dying. At least one big character must go and I think the writers are going with Morgan, because he would be the wiser choice. I know he has a lot of fans, but most people don't really care about him anymore, myself included, not as much as before anyways. That would hurt the family, especially Rick and Carol, to see him go. It would make an emotional scene, without killing too much of a fã favorite.
How: I think morgan would go down por saving a family member. His story would go full circle. He would die doing the one thing he's been trying to do for the past two seasons, saving a person and not killing one.
CHARACTERS I THINK MIGHT DIE, BUT I'M STILL NOT SURE:
TAMIEL:
When: Probably during the war, but maybe later in the season. Depending on if they cadastrar-se the fight or not.
Why: I think at least one of the Garbage People will die during the war, if they participate at all. They don't really have loyalty towards anyone, but if Negan makes them a good enough offer, they will fight his fight. And when they do, I think Tamiel is probably going to die, because she's Jadis right hand woman and she's really important to this group. I think Tamiel's death would hurt Jadis mais than anyone else's, because we saw that she cared about her when Gabriel put a faca to her throat last season.
How: Most likely killed por a member of Team Family, because that would have mais impact on Jadis than her getting killed por walkers.
NATANIA/KATHY:
When: Maybe before the war and/or during.
Why: I don't know if we're going to see Oceanside again, because we didn't see them in the trailer, but I'm assuming we will. They didn't introduce an entire community only to never see them again. I don't know if they will cadastrar-se the fight or not. But I think Natania or Kathy dying at the hand of the Savior could be the thing that makes them want to go fight, especially Natania. Beatrice and Cyndie are the most developed characters from that community, so I think that makes them safe, for now.
How: I would think killed por a Savior, because that would be the best way to reintroduce them to the show, as they don't want any part in the fight.
RACHEL:
When: Anytime during the season.
Why: Little girls don't have a good track record on this show, they pretty much always die. At least Rachel has brown hair, which could save her, because every other little girl that died on the show was blonde. (Sophia, Lizzie, Mika, Beth, Meghan...)
How: I would think while fighting, but I don't know if they would let her fight, due to her age. Probably taken out por a walker instead, but she would have to be taken por surprise, because she proved that she can handle them just fine.
CHARACTERS THAT COULD POTENTIALLY DIE THIS SEASON, BUT IT'S UNLIKELY:
(New category, but I just need to talk about those two characters, even though I doubt they will actually die.)
MICHONNE:
When: End of the season, IF.
Why: Ok, don't freak out people, it's pretty unlikely. I just put her in my predictions, because Danai has been seen twice hugging people from the show in a very sad way. Firstly with the executive producer, link, on set and then not that long ago, with link. So it's really just a hunch that I have because of these and they have been bugging me for over a week now. I don't know why she would hug them looking really sad, so I thought that maybe, and it's a big maybe, she is being killed off. But I'm mais on the not side than on the yes side. I thought I'd still put her here anyways though.
How: I seriously have no idea, but I'd say while fighting or protecting her loved ones.
EZEKIEL:
When: End of the season, IF.
Why: Like Michonne, I think it's pretty unlikely that he's dying this season. I'm thinking mais season 9. But I'm putting him here, because I know that very often, the show likes to rush storylines, so I wouldn't put it past them to rush Ezekiel's death and have Carol become the queen of the Kingdom. We all know this is where the story is heading, but I would imagine mais in season 9. But they could very well rush it and have Carol become the queen at the end of season 8, and use that for season 9's promotion.
How: While fighting or protecting loves ones.
But, if ever I'm right about one of these two characters, it's 100% sure the other one is safe. They're probably not gonna kill either of them, let alone both of them.
CHARACTERS I WANT TO DIE BUT PROBABLY WON'T:
JADIS:
Why: If you know me, you know how much I looooooooove Jadis. She is so annoying and boring. She's weird, she's two-faced. I don't like the way she talks and acts. Everything about her just annoys the hell out of me. So I would be very pleased to see her go, but I doubt she'll die this season.
GREGORY:
Why: I know Gregory is not dying anytime soon, but urgh. He's such a cowardly character, but not the interesting kind. Every time I see his face, I get angry. I just hate him so much, please kill him soon!
CHARACTERS THAT WON'T DIE BUT SOMETHING BAD WILL HAPPEN TO THEM:
NEGAN:
Why: Usually, when our group defeats an antagonist on this show, they kill him/her and then they mover on. Negan will be defeated this season, but he won't die. This is probably going to be prompted por Morgan's death, but Rick will want for things to go back to the old ways. He will want to rebuild society and have rules and not just kill people. He's going to use the prison morgan built and put Negan in there instead of killing him. But that doesn't mean Negan's not going to get hurt. I'm basing this prediction on the comics, but I think Rick will hurt Negan very badly, but he'll survive. It will also probably be left as a cliffhanger and people will think Negan is dead and then after the mid season break, we'll see that he's not. We all know how much this show loves death scares and deadly cliffhangers *cough*Glenn*cough*dumpster*cough*. They would be stupid to kill off a great character like Negan, especially after only a season and a half. If they are smart, they will do the same thing they did in the comics, and let him live.
There you go. Do you agree with any other them? Do you think I'm completely out of my mind?
Who do YOU think will die?
Who do YOU want to see die?
