unless, like has been said, he didn't do anything to impede the death because he accepted it because hiro told him he was going to die.

yea, the hole in my theory=

"why didnt he just use his ability to save himself" he doesnt mess with destiny, he's kaito..he was "destined" to die so didnt fight him off

"why did he not travel through time" well...he might have developed his ability that much, but just CHOSE not to ever time travel, being kaito...this is believable

He didn't know that was his destiny until after Hiro told him. Time travel can really throw in alot of variables in the equations! Who knows if he knew or not when we saw it the first time, but I think we have to assume he didn't.

Not necessarily - if you assume he didn't know the first time, you'd also have to assume that at some point Tekezo Kensai did all of his great deeds without the interference of Hiro Nakamura - and that just doesn't seem likely considering what we saw in the past.

So if Hiro always was the Kensai of the Legends, then it is entirely possible that Kaito was "destined to die" simply by his own decision that he was "destined to die" - see?

could be that originally kaito did fight back (which we never saw), but was killed and then hiro went back in time to warn kaito and kaito accepted his destined death (the first death we saw), which resets events and when hiro goes back to save his father again (though, with events reset its as though it were the first time) kaito once again accepts his death and doesn't fight back (the second time we see him die, happening exactly as it did the first time we saw him die). so it basically has become a loop.

its kind of like what i've heard mentioned with hiro trying to save charlie. if he had succeeded to save her life in the past, to get her to not go to the diner that day, then hiro would have never met her at the diner and never would have had a reason to go back in time to save her and since he wouldn't go back in time to save her she would still end up going to the diner and dying.

That's very possible, Guaxini. I like!

It's similar to Sylar being the original "bomb" and Future Hiro stabbing him, but Sylar regenerating (as per the Graphic Novel). When Future Hiro went back in time to see Peter on the subway, that effectively changed history and made Peter the bomb while Sylar never obtained Claire's ability until five years later.

Nice thought, Guax! Cool

lets not hear hoofbeats and assume zebras here...

it doesnt have to be fire... it could be luminescence or Radioactivity or lazers or all sorts of things.

But this may be spoiler worthy... so make sure to use tags next time...
