Fictional last words in animated television series

The following is a list of last words attributed to various fictional characters in animated television shows. Characters are listed according to the originating show, then the name of character the quote is attributed to (in case of more than one quote per source). Where possible, for the purposes of clarification, further explanatory notes have been presented. Additionally, if a character's final words consist of a dialogue with the other characters, the other character's speech may be included for contextual purposes; for example, if one character asks a question that the one who is about to die answers.

Some characters may have more than one "death," in instances such as being resurrected, or existing temporarily as an undead being. In some of those instances, their last words from each "death" may be added if they are significant. Additionally, significant last words from deaths that are merely assumed to have happened or are non-canon are included. Additionally, in instances where there are multiple outcomes, or in media with alternate timelines, the character's last words will be featured.

Quotes

  • To think that you are their leader now, the end is near. Those who stand above others, must have noble ideals, along with the most noble intentions. Anyone that cannot manage the will of the masses is not fit to serve as leader of knights. You say you're punishing someone for standing up to you? That kind of justice, is a lie. We are an official section of the CC corporation. If that's a problem for you, well then don't play. You mean, you'll kill us all. It's an insult to call that justice. You are silencing the players through mass murder. Remember this, those who call themselves knights must not hide behind a shield of false justice. If you forget that, you are nothing but an empty shell.

    • Source: Robot Chicken
    • Note: Following him saying this, he always does something to kill himself (i.e. hanging himself, dropping an electric toaster in a bathtub while he's in it and electrocuting himself) and succeeds. This occurs at the end of the Bloopers skit, and prior to the end credits (when you hear the chickens singing). One of the most recent episodes in the fifth season subverts this, in which he, after revealing that he has had a horrible life, which involves being whipped, beaten and verbally abused all the time for no reason by his father when he was a kid, suffering from excessive piles all the time, being pressured into sleeping with a fat woman he found unattractive which was the only time he ever had sex, and imagining he is being laughed at by the people around him all the time (basically explaining away his frequent suicidal tendencies) brings out his bratty pregnant thirteen year old daughter, born to the fat woman he slept with, to help him with offing himself, but she refuses, much to his chagrin. The second quote comes from "The Rescue" skit from the 100th episode; as the Robot Chicken cuts down the hanging rope of the Bloopers host, while on his way to save his wife from the Mad Scientist. The Host says this quote before having his head sliced off by the Chicken.

    • Note: The leader of the Neo-Nazi group, Ratchman is a coward who is killed by both Revy and Dutch.

It means we get to live for that much longer. We can... we can add on to our lives. So we're never going to die. That's right. We are eternal.

  • You're evil! You're the devil!

However, the assassination was, in fact, a plan by Lelouch himself in order to create worldwide peace with his death. His final words confirm Nunnaly's sudden realization of her brother's plan, The "Zero Requiem." Lelouch's death is left for the viewer to interpret as both the final lines of the show and the name of the season itself, (R2) implying that he may have become an immortal by sacrificing his Geass.
  • Brother, you're a liar. You lied... right? Saying stuff like wanting to kill me... that you hated me... [Lelouch: "I see. You saw through my lies. You are indeed my brother."] That's... right. I know... everything... about you... Brother. [Lelouch: "Yeah that's right. Your brother is a liar."]

He required the ability to connect with a server run by the Syndicate in order to maintain control of the body, but after he went rogue they disconnected the server, killing his consciousness. It is later revealed that his consciousness was preserved through a separate server.
  • Is that really okay with you? Is that your answer, Hei? By assuming to assume both identities you'll only make life harder on yourself. The syndicate will do what ever it takes to capture you. You'll have to kill again if you choose to walk that path. Didn't you tell me you were sick of it? You're only going to manage to lose everything you've managed to gain again. You won't be able to see the real stars or your beloved sister, anymore. Will you still... Why? Isn't this what you've always wanted? That's why I...

The last thing he saw was an apparition of L, who was killed by Rem over five years earlier.

  • You're still not in your own world, Homer! I can get you back, but you have to do exactly as I--
  • Oh, I'm bad at this.
    • Who: Groundskeeper Willie
    • Notes: As a running gag for a Halloween episode, Willie was killed with an ax to the back in every segment. The first line was said after an insane Homer axed him. The second line was said to a dimension hopping Homer before Maggie axed him. The third line was said after being axed by Seymour Skinner, bemoaning the fact that he had died in every segment where he enacted a rescue. As they occurred in a series of Halloween shorts, none of these deaths are canon.

  • Get off me, you schmuck! Oh... going out on a sight gag... classy.
    • Who: Krusty the Klown

  • Oh, you STUPID, SON OF A-
    • Who: Ned Flanders
    • Notes: Ned shoots Homer to prevent him from idiotically pressing a self-destruct button. Homer at first turns around and falls frontwards, then flips backwords, just inches from the self-destruct button. His tounge then hits said button, prompting Ned to say the line. He is interuppted by the bomb, vaporizing Springfield. Death not canon.
  • I understand... these things take time. Good night.

  • Go ahead; do it! You're no different from me; we're made from the same "dinnah".

    • Notes: Lisa is about to stab Bart for committing mass murder, mainly on Principal Skinner and Elizabeth Hoover. He attempts to hide and takes cover on a crowded playground. The kids eventually disperse, and Lisa faces Bart. He states this line, and Lisa, after stating that they are not the same, throws the knife in the air, only to hit Bart, either instantly killing him or, at the very least, rendering him brain-dead. Edna Krabappel, Bart's teacher, mocks the body, and it is implied with her interaction with Lisa, that Lisa was intending to kill Bart. Since it took place in a "Treehouse of Horror" segment, death is not canon.
  • Juicy, flavorful, with just a hint of-
    • Who: Kent Brockman
    • Notes: Kent was trying out the new Burger Squared. He is describing the taste of Burger squared, when he suddenly is poisoned and becomes a zombie. Death not canon.

    • Notes: Character owned Team Masho, and bribed the Tournament Committee on several occasions to rule against Yusuke's team to lessen their chances of victory. He says this line when Sakyo and Toguro approach him. Sakyo responds that Yusuke did not kill Tarukane- Toguro did- before having Toguro kill him.
