Seeing as there's no obvious automated notification of replies, banning someone for not noticing a reply seems unfair.

He's really just deleted the comment -- for some reason the software uses the word "ban". The commenter is still registered.

Yes, it's unfair, yes, we should fix this at some point, but I deemed it more important to not spoil a unique anime.

I'm a little confused -- what does it mean to ban a comment? I know how one can delete a comment, or ban a user, but I've never heard the words used this way before.

Delete, really. The button just says "ban" if you're an administrator.
