Why did the toads didn't reverse summon Jiraiya when he died?

[Apple Knight]

Jiraiya

 

[The Necromancer]

B.... because he was dead?

 

[Amenotejikara]

No reason, kishi said it was fitting that jiraiya died and stay under water for some symbolism.

 

[Umari Senju]

Did they even know what he was up to? The only ones who knew he was fighting pain were ma, pa, and that one frog who keeps calling himself clumsy...and they were fighting Pain too. Don't think they had time to go back and set up a reverse summon.

this. Even if Pa could have gone back and told Ma, there wouldn't have been time.

Plothole. but it wouldn't have stopped anything, either he dies at the bottom of the ocean or on toad mountain
