This is the ending of one of the two core plot lines. And this one ending with death/parting, is bound to make an impact. And yes, this is why I'm writing fanfic, and my HnG fanfics will always involve Sai; he had no chance here, nor in his living life. There are so many things I want him to do yet, he's just too young to die.
His disappearance didn't make proper sense to me until vol 17. Then it made profound sense, but only from Hikaru's point of view. So yes, I'm glad to read fics about Sai.
I am aware that writing a Sai-comes-back fic negates a large point of the canon plot. But in fanfic you can just write what was left unwritten, even changing the intent of the canon. IMHO.
