Fictional character deaths that wrecked you

[Number Nine 341]

Buffy:

Not necessarily Joyce dying, but that episode, I was cool watching it but so many things kept piling on: Buffy's reaction, Willow's indecisiveness on what to wear for Joyce, Dawn finding out, the quietness of the episode and fucking Anya's speech. I eventually lost it. 

Also Mufasa's death in The Lion King. I didn't cry when I was little but instead the most recent time I watched it 

Oh, and this always has me feeling some type of way too

Doubt anyone will know this but whatever.

 

I just finished an anime recently called Tsubasa: Reservoir Chronicles and the two main characters die at the end. Part of the manga continued from where the anime left off and they both came back to life, only to be turned into feathers that contain their souls  so the manga ends with their son starting a journey to give their souls new bodies. They didn't have the decency to actually write a new arc where he does that, they just end it on "we'll see each other again some day!" and it left me in a state of mourning for a few days

As for movies, Hachiko fucked me up. I cried for six hours afterwards until I went to bed

I always cry with the dog-related ones (especially Marley from Marley & Me, Hachiko's owner and the episode with Fry's dog from Futurama  )

I also don't know if anyone here saw Bridge to Terabithia but

Bridge of Teribithia and I forgot what this movie is called but the one that I think is in a field and this girl walks thru it and this old man told her that he had toys in there and raped/killed her and she went to heaven and watched how her family NEVER got justice for her death  I really forgot the title of the movie

We already have a thread about celebrity deaths and movies that made people cry, but what about fictional characters? I'm putting my answer under a spoiler cut and I advise anyone else who wants to share to do the same.

Buffy the Vampire Slayer - When Buffy died in the season five finale, I felt sick and I couldn't believe they actually went there. She's one of my greatest heroes and role models, and she was just...gone. She had gotten into so many life-or-death situations up until that point and always managed to make it out, and then she finally came across one that was bigger than her. I know she eventually got resurrected, but the futility and hopelessness of watching that scene the first time is something that will never be lost on me. She died selflessly sacrificing her life to save the world (specifically her younger sister), and even though I hated that it had to happen, the way it did made so much sense and was perfect for her character. Her speech to Dawn as her friends cry over her body and her epitaph is shown is heartbreaking. Like Buffy, I have a younger sister and she annoys the hell out of me sometimes too, but in the same situation I would jump into that portal without a moment of hesitation. I know everyone says the episode where Joyce dies is the saddest one,  but this hit me even harder.

 

At the time I had no internet and never watched gossip tv or anything, so to me, that death was the real deal. Like, that was it for the TV show as far as I was concerned. I thought it was legit over and that was the last season, how could they ever come back from that? Needless to say my heart broke, but at the same time it felt right. It was poetic and heroic beyond anything else.

Do you have any specific problem with animals dying in movies? I know a lot of other people do and it's not something I generally take particular issue with, but I was watching the remake of Willard last night and although I didn't really find it upsetting, I did think it was a little weird that they introduced a cat in one scene
