If nothing else, Meghan has confirmed that Sombra is dead. Chrysalis is most likely dead as well unless you count the comics as canon. Also Lauren Faust has implied Nightmare Moon to be a separate entity from Luna manifested from her jealousy (and Luna kinda implied it herself by saying "I've missed you so much big sister" when Nightmare Moon would've had nothing but hate for Celestia when she was imprisoned). A non-villain was also killed off, but in a subtle way; Fuzzy Slippers is implied to have cancer, and there's a funeral in the next episode.

Also, although most people these days like their shows to be more violent (unless it's MLP), there are usually only two types of character they would hate to see killed off: Fan-favorite characters (like Princess Luna), and main villains (like Chrysalis). And Pokemon has killed off good characters, most notably Latios and Lucario. As for MLP, it will not kill off Luna or any of the Mane 6 unless they want a riot on their hands, and I think Celestia has gained popularity among the fandom as well.
