No sane person likes to see people getting killed, but these are fictional characters, not real life. Still, Hajime takes a profoundly realistic approach to his manga, and in real life, people die in war and combat en masse. It's just how it is. Not all of us like to see overtly-idealistic or soap drama-style anime, but gritty realism that says something true about us as humans, both the good and bad sides, and not just the things we'd like to believe. Those who deny the latter are just afraid to face and admit the darker aspects and soul-crushing hardships of life and humanity.
