While i understand that Mashima doesn't want to make the series too dark, right now the story is ruined by the excessive plot armour. And i have to agree on the Dragons, Mashima made their first appearance to be have so much impact, showing their immense strength and now it suddenly disappeared. So in the end the only way to improve the story is to include death. Even Bleach which didn't face any death on the good guys' side dealt with some death in it's current arc when the Quincy appeared and invade Gotei 13.
