^Nepthys and Niang Niang can't help mostly because as Magic gods they can't intervene (although they do like just doing random shit).

As for the whole Kanzaki thing, Hamazura didn't even try to communicate properly with them, literally the first thing he did was sneak away from them. Heck, he even had a proper chance of getting help due to helping Queen Elizard who he then just as quickly betrayed.

If he had stuck around he would have met up with Touma and the others and if he had explained it to them Touma would have definitely tried to help in some way. Aliester could have probably found a way to bring her back with the help of Index and Fran who saw where she was made and the tools used to create her. Queen Elizard would have been in his debt and could have done something to research how to save Dion Fortune (considering the amount of bs and deus ex machina moments that have saved him so far he could have gotten away from Choronzon in some way), etc, etc. Hamazura had plenty of alternate ways to find help, but he jumped the gun and went with the quick and easy answer that appeared before him.

Like I said, his actions in this volume are not that different from those of past antagonists who were trying to do a good thing the wrong way out of desperation and in that desperation he was willing to let others die and suffer for the sake of achieving his goal.

Sure, he was trying to help someone and that is not a bad thing, but he knowingly went along with the villain who he knew was trying to destroy every human alive. If anything at this point Hamazura is more of an Anti Touma than Kamisato himself.
