All set to the short, yet somber cello of Yume Monogatari. She manages to deliver a Dying Declaration of Love and a First Kiss slash Last Kiss to the man she was starting to crush on before letting death take her. In the anime version of Akame ga Kill!, Mine is not given the Plot Armor her manga counterpart was given, and proceeds to die in Tatsumi's arms after sacrificing her Imperial Arm to kill Great General Budo, who had fatally wounded her earlier in the fight.The kicker? It plays to the most heart-wrenching award bait song EVER. Perhaps the most tear-jerking of them all is Misuzu dying in Haruko's arms in AIR.This is a Death Trope, so be warned that UNMARKED SPOILERS abound.
(Though strangely enough, intimacy is exactly what's being referenced by the Cutting Crew song.) May overlap with Cradle of Loneliness, especially if the body of a loved one is cradled long after their death. Contrast Intimate Healing, where a wounded or ill character is less likely to die while in a loved one's arms. May be an extension of the refusal to let your loved one Die Alone.Ĭompare with Pietà Plagiarism, the pose characters generally find themselves in, Cradling Your Kill, when a character dies in their killer's arms, and Deadly Hug, where the victim is killed during the embrace. Can turn into It's Personal for the witness, and very often overlaps with How Dare You Die on Me! and Dying Declaration of Love. If this is done on an Anyone Can Die show, expect the character to be Killed Off for Real ( usually). As the onlooker (usually one of the dying character's True Companions) holds them dearly, the dying may flash them a smile or make a final dramatic statement before finally closing their eyes and succumbing to their fate. Cutting Crew, "(I Just) Died in Your Arms"ĭeath Is Dramatic, depressing, and emotional enough, but sometimes, just for the extra emotional kick-in-the-gut Tear Jerker, the author will make a character die in the arms of a helpless onlooker.
