Joss has repeatedly said that the core three are safe. Whether he'll stick to that or not, I'm not sure. I, for one, hope he doesn't kill Willow. I hope he doesn't kill Amy either! I've loved Amy since 'The Witch' and I'd be really sad to see her killed off.

I think Amy's death is inevitable. I'd hate to see Willow killed off, just as much as I dislike the possibility of her going evil again. I think that if there is a main character death it might be Xander. There's supposed to be some big painful event in the next arc and Xander getting killed is the worst possible scenario I can think of in that respect. Something like that would hit Buffy, Dawn, and Willow where it hurts.

Of course if Amy dies, so does Warren.
I'm not sure now what I think about Scoobie death possibilities. For a long time I thought Joss was going to lay the tragedy on thick this season, but now I'm wondering if that's really the direction he's heading in. I know somebody's going to die, and I'm very afraid in particular for Satsu and Leah and Rowena... but I don't know if any first-string character deaths are in the cards this time around.

Personally I'd rather see Satsu in a relationship with Kennedy than killed off. I haven't had much time to grow attached to Leah and Rowena, so it never occurred to me that a writer would see any point in having them harmed. Joss tends to be big on the surprises, and I have yet to be disappointed with a character's introduction or departure.

Personally I'd rather see Satsu in a relationship with Kennedy than killed off. I'd rather see her in a relationship with Buffy, of course. And I'd like to see Willow and Kennedy stay together. But any alternative to killing Satsu off would be OK with me.

If Buffy dies a heroic way i be proud of buffster.and she the true champion in the end.
But if Xander dies thats a reason why dark willow might be merged. or could it be Giles.

No more killing of the Buffy. She has had 2 heroic deaths, no more. lol Season 8 has made me a really big Andrew fan so I hope that he is safe.

I totally agree, his dialog in the comics are funny also entertaining to read. I don’t want either character to die in the scoobies. I hope it leads to a remarkable storyline. Like they did to Jenny Calendar back in season 2, that death scene was brutal but remarkable.

I also agree, she shouldn't die more than twice (and come back).
And Andrew IS awesome in the comics, he always supplies a good laugh!
I hope he doesn't kill off one of the main scoobies (Buffy, Xander, Willow, Giles. Or Oz or Faith for that matter). But I suppose that the deaths will have to be at least reasonably significant characters.
Blegh, I almost don't want to read it if important characters like these die! ... Nope, I take that back, I totally want to read it whatever the case, don't know how I would handle not being able to! xD

If its a important character i don't have any doubt that it be a remarkable exit to a magnificent character.
If its a main character ( scoobies), i would like to see Dawn die in battle, or Twilight. That be an awesome to see Buffy fulfill her emotions with anger and then she kills him by her essence of emotion. I don't want to see Giles die,no British connection to the comics lol.

Of interest to Leah fans... She's still alive, and apparently doesn't die anytime soon! In response to a question I asked Jeanty in a Q&A on another board, he responded:
So, Leah fans rejoice.

Now that it's much closer to the end of the season, I think that Kennedy, Xander, Satsu, Dawn, or Buffy may be killed. I know, I know. Killing Buffy has been done before and she'll come back.
If there's one thing Joss is good at, it's a death scene/episode. He understands that if a main character is going to die, something must come from it. There must be some meaning to it (i.e. Joyce Summers) or no meaning at all (i.e. Tara Maclay).
That's why I see Xander's death as meaningful to the theme of season 8 and Twilight's anti-magic stance. Xander, who has no special powers, still fights alongside good magic, in the forms of witchcraft and slayers. His death could give Buffy and the other slayers the rage to defeat Twilight.

I still think Giles or Xander are the most likely to go. Though the more I think about it, the harder it is to imagine a credible season 9 without Xander around. I suspect the heart might go right out of the story if Xander or Willow were permanently removed from the equation.
Dawn, Andrew, and Faith are also candidates, and of course all of the Nu Slayers (including Satsu, Leah and Rowena) are wearing bright red shirts.

I think Satsu and Faith definetly have the potential to stay a while more cuz it feels like they have so much story and potential left in them. Kennedy might go just because she wont be around with Willow in the future, I think she'll probably be gone by the end of this season. MAybe Dawn cuz all of Xander's other lovers got killed off eventually. I would think that Amy and Warren wouldn't stay after this season either, they dont have much room in the story except for a possible face off against their greatest foe: Willow.

As much as I love Amy (I do a lot) I think the perfect end for the character would be her death by Willow's hands. I would also like Dawn to Kill Warren before she dies a heroic death her self. (as long as Faith/Xander/Oz and Riley are fine, I am happy.)

I'm thinking Kennedy for sure. I'm not saying that because I'm anti-Kennedy, but I just get this feeling that it might be something that will push Willow into becoming FDW.
I just have this mental image. Eep.

First I suppose Warren and Amy have to die. They are villains, you know. That is what always happens with villains - they die. Some Slayers (or may by many of them) will die,I guess. Because of a new battle with the army of Twilight. I afraid, Faith is gonna die too.I like her very much, I want her to be alive, but... it is not my decision. The same is for Twilight. But I still hope he will survive. Buffy and Willow - both will survive, I am sure. Xander and Dawn.. well, they are in love, so at least one of them is in danger. Just as Kennedy and Satsu. And Giles... well his death will be a major loss. So he is on the list too, near Faith. Leah and Rowena. Honestly, I don't remember who are they. Must be Slayers. I don't care about their destiny.
Addon. I doubt they will kill Dawn. She is nice and, what is more, she is Key. So they cant just go and kill her. But Xander is another deal. His death makes sense, especially in case Buffy loves him.

I think xander may die cause buffy has feelings for him and this could be the reason why willow goes evil or dawn cause if twilight wins and I think he might all magic will disappear and because the monks did a spell to transfer the key into human form the spell will fade and she well convert back into energy.

I doubt Buffy, Willow or Xander will die. Giles is a possibility in my eyes, though.
I don't really want any of our good guys to die. The only one I wouldn't really care about would be Riley. If Faith, Buffy, Willow, Xander, Giles or Dawn die I'll probably be angry for about 4 days, then I'd cry. I wouldn't be too happy if Oz, Andrew, Satsu or Kennedy died either. But meh. I wonder who it's gonna be.
