The comics and show heavily lean into the plot armor trope. It's basically the most common story device in the series. If you hate a series where the characters never die or always come back to life then you will loathe Invincible. They had everyone fake die in the second season just to drive the point home. Even starting the storyline of Donald dying over and over again and being brought back as a robotic clone. "No one's ever really gone".
This Ulitmatlety plays into one of the biggest problems with a like this, where they actively kill everyone but then will constantly revive them in a mere week.
There are no long-lasting consequences.
People who have died will quickly be revived in cybernetic bodies, be brought back from an alternative universe, or turn out to never be dead in the first place.
Heck, when Mr. Cyborg Donald was crying about "I should have died a long time ago," I felt more annoyed than sad for him.
It doesn't matter how people brutally kill people the show kills.
The audience will quickly become desensitized to it when you treat death like it's just a daily event.
Why feel sad about anybody dying when they can be so quickly revived?
They somehow couldn’t bring back the guardians either despite wasting that technology on some fat faggot with bitch tits. You’d think whoever did the previous cyborg stuff would be better than the guy who lobotomized the homo.
Donald was shown to be dead for days in some cases. Just seems like resource mismanagement.
This actually plays into another problem.
This show has many methods to revive so many characters, not just by turning them into cyborgs, but they can also clone them.
Does anybody remember the Mauler twins?
These two alone could revive the guardians with ease.
They're so good at it that they even figure out how to make sure the clone doesn't have an essential crisis, and it's not like Cecil would be bothered hiring two criminals to get the job done.
He isn't exactly someone who's concerned with what's morals as long it keeps planet Earth safe.
