The katana attacks were very strong, and Tenya only knew that after Izuku had gotten attacked, Eijirou wanted Izuku to sit back from the boss, and so he reacted. Tenya seems like the kind of person to make a last second decision based off of what he feels like will happen in the moment, and so I went with that.
I'm sorry you don't like it, but I did say in the tags that I only had bits and pieces of this story planned out, and most of this is just coming to my brain as I go.
A lot of character deaths happen, and they do seem quite random, and later on seem quite pointless, including in SAO and BNHA. When Nighteye died, nothing much really happened, and his character death only really provided an angst factor in the moment, and was disregarded later as if it didn't happen. This also happens in SAO, and the death doesn't play too much of a further impact.
People understand that this is a killing game, and so I honestly don't think Tenya's death was too random. Also, the pros have lost many more lives than the citizens, so they can't say too much, and I do have ways for the death to play a good factor later on in this fic.
However, I do appreciate the suggestion, and may put it into later chapters!
