Maybe they don't say up front that the princesses are "dead" but we're left to assume it based on certain lines that would go over the kids' heads.

Compare the Big Five in Yu-Gi-Oh! Noah imprisons them in a different corner of the virtual world, and several episodes later, the virtual world is destroyed. We don't see the Big Five again and they are hardly mentioned after their imprisonment but anyone thinking about it hard enough will know they were destroyed along with the virtual world. (Yu-Gi-Oh! often censors most characters' deaths by replacing it with eternal damnation to hell... yeah I don't get that either)
