User blog comment:LordLuminous/Why Silver Fullbuster won't die, Theory/@comment-24800928-20140720222855

idk the more i think about it the more I feel as though Silver may in fact stay alive and its all because Mashima does usually kill off characters without even batting an eye or giving a hint. Brain may be another example where Mashima just kills of a character and done, although no one's sure if he's dead.
