I felt like a lot of the deaths in the final book didn't help move the plot forward or serve the story. (the death of Tara was super-shitty, especially now that I am aware of the trope it fell into BUT it did move the plot forward, creating evil Willow. Doesn't mean it was the right choice, but without that event, we don't have the Season 6 finale)
And I know, it was war (WWII), soldiers die and are not celebrated etc. but it felt cheap that it kind of happened off screen so it felt like a disservice to the characters. Especially for adult fans who might have been more invested in them than the kids who only focused on the Trio.
At least the movie version has the wonderful Glow-Up that is Neville.
