Daredevil: 11 Most Fan-Pleasing Moments From Season 2
9. Nobu Dies... For Real This Time
The further exploration of the relationship between Matt Murdock and his estranged mentor, Stick, was one of this season's most surprising elements. Not for the wrong reasons mind you, but quite the opposite. Matt may still resent his adoptive father's more extreme methods, but the episodes that focused on them both were some of season 2's brightest moments. However, I digress, as it's not the warm exchanges of respect the two share that really held the best for Stick. He's an absolutely incredible fighter and tactician, and after seeing Nobu get resurrected one time too many, he finishes the job in a manner no immortal ninja could ever hope to recover from. It was a fairly appropriate end for a character that had wrought so much grief upon Hell's Kitchen, and one that only Stick himself could carry out. You can't help but want to applaud his efforts, even if the master assassin himself is a bit of a cold-hearted character at times. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GKAtdgrUsaQ
