Oh no! The Love Interest, mentor, parents, little sister, or another emotionally significant character to the hero has been killed by the villain. Woe! However, it's okay. Because the Big Bad has been defeated, and their souls can rest peacefully in Fluffy Cloud Heaven. To demonstrate this, their ashes, ectoplasm, or even (and this one's popular) the clouds themselves form into their faces and smile serenely down at our (still living) heroes before fading away to their eternal reward. Typically a Heartwarming Moment. Common in children's movies where you get a Death by Newbery Medal, and sentimental films in general. Peaceful in Death may be a mundane (or ambiguous) alternative. Occasionally overlaps with Ascend to a Higher Plane of Existence. Very likely to occur with two people who are Together in Death as well as Ghost Reunion Ending, especially if it's a Russian fairy tale's Happily Ever After, since their traditional ending is "And they lived their lives happily and died in one day", meaning they were Together in Death. Compare Winged Soul Flies Off at Death, Afterlife Welcome and Don't Fear the Reaper. Contrast Go Out with a Smile, Dying as Yourself, and Afterlife Angst. As this is a Death Trope, unmarked spoilers abound. Beware. |

The ending to Puella Magi Madoka Magica is ambiguous about whether it's this trope or just new superpowers, but there's the possibility that Homura is about to go to Heaven and be reunited with her friend Madoka as the series ends. The manga adaptation changes the ending to make this trope more explicit. Puella Magi Madoka Magica The Movie: Rebellion defies this trope. In fact, Homura achieves an Everyone Lives ending...but at great cost. |

In Dark Chronicle, The Dragon Gaspard is given a significant amount of backstory, most of it bad. After you defeat him, however, you get a cutscene of him as a child again, reuniting with his mother as if he had just come back from playing outside. | |

During the final battle of Dragonheart, Draco tells his friend Bowen to kill him because it's the only way to truly defeat King Einon. After much hesitation Bowen does so, and afterwards Draco's body vanishes in a ball of light as his soul ascends into the Dragon's Heaven, (the constellation Draco) where Brother Gilbert's closing narration states that in times of trouble Draco's star shined out with particular brightness as he watched over his friends and their subjects. | |

Pokémon the Series: Sun & Moon features an episode in which a Stoutland who had served as mentor to what would ultimately become Ash's Litten dies of old age. It simply disappears, leaving its pupil distraught and looking for it until they come to realize what has happened. Ash manages to snap Litten out of its depression and catches it. At the end of the episode, Stoutland is seen in the clouds walking beside a rainbow. | |

The film of the musical Reefer Madness plays this one for laughs. The hero's girlfriend Mary Lane, ingenue of ingenues, is sent to Hell for being tricked into smoking pot once, and subsequently turning into a sex-crazed dominatrix. The hero eventually destroys the demon weed, which sends Mary back to Fluffy Cloud Heaven. The hero then asks her to wait for him. "One day I'll get cancer, or hit by a train!" She's overjoyed at the idea. | |

Naminé and Roxas in Kingdom Hearts II, although it's less "death" and more re-assimilation back into their original selves where they continue to live on in their hearts. Either way, both of them are definitively Back from the Dead by the end of Kingdom Hearts III. | |

Disney Animated Canon: King Kashekhim Nedakh, and to a much lesser extent, the former Queen of Atlantis from Atlantis: The Lost Empire. Mufasa in The Lion King does this to Simba, albeit also to give him counsel to face Scar. In The Princess and the Frog, Ray's shockingly not a Disney Death is softened when it is revealed that he became a star and is now united with Evangeline. |

The Simpsons: Parodied on "'Round Springfield", where Bleeding Gums Murphy appears to Lisa in the clouds... followed by Mufasa asking "Kimba - I mean, Simba" to avenge him, which is followed by Darth Vader saying, "Luke, I Am Your Father", and finally, James Earl Jones saying "This is CNN." It's then immediatly played straight as Bleeding Gums says goodbye to Lisa, but decides to play one final song with her first (his classic "Jazzman") There's also a later episode with Maude Flanders looking over her son Todd up from Heaven. |

Fullmetal Alchemist: One omake shows Hohenheim and Trisha happily reuniting in the afterlife. When Hohenheim dies for real, he has a smile on his face. Furthermore, Izumi and Wrath are reunited in Fullmetal Alchemist: The Conqueror of Shamballa. Each volume of the manga that has at least one character die has a panel at the end dedicated to them, showing them floating up to Heaven. There are two exceptions: first, Shou Tucker is the only character to go to Hell instead. Second, in volume nine when Maria Ross is apparently murdered by Roy Mustang, the end of the book features the usual dedication with her floating up to Heaven. In the following book, when it's revealed that her death was faked, the dedication page features Ross falling back to Earth, passing by the characters who did die in that volume. |

The case for most heroes in the Dragon Ball series. Shining example is Goku's Grandpa Gohan who as we retroactively discover, was accidentally killed by Goku when he transformed into a giant ape, but later shows up just fine when he gets to spend one day back among the land of the living and see his grandson again. There's also Goku himself when he died during the Cell Saga, who talked with the others via a telepathic message to let them know that even though he was dead he was perfectly okay. Of course in his case he (eventually) wound up coming back. | |

Discussed and ultimately averted in the Discworld novel Hogfather; Death runs across an Expy of The Little Match Girl and is horrified by the situation, not because of the fact of her death (that's his thing, after all) but because it's supposedly sentimental and an integral part of the "Hogswatch spirit." For the most part, the eventual fate of those who die in Discworld novels is ambiguous, as Death accompanies them to a desert they must cross, and the readers never see what awaits them on the other side (though it's implied that it's whatever they ultimately expect/deserve). There is one exception; the golem Anghammarad in Going Postal decides not to cross it at all, as he spent 19,000 years of his existence trying to deliver a message (and willing to wait for time to start over to complete his task), and having no further orders to follow is bliss. |

At the end of The Adventures of Mark Twain, Twain dies awesomely ever after by first merging with his dark side, and then Ascending To A Higher Plane Of Existence by actually becoming part of Halley's Comet. His smiling face appears in its celestial ripples to bid the three Tag Along Kids farewell. In the 1944 original, Twain is called away by Tom Sawyer and Huckleberry Finn, and they walk down the road to heaven together while Halley's Comet zooms by overhead. |

In season 5 in Supernatural, Sam and Dean are sent to heaven. (They get better.) There, they find Ash, who had died a few seasons earlier. He's quite happy to see them and is enjoying himself living in his favorite place and getting to meet all kinds of other dead famous people. In season 15, they die again, this time permanently, Dean on a hunt and Sam decades later of old age. Dean learns from their long-dead surrogate father, Bobby, that everyone else they've loved and lost is also there, and happily reunites with Sam when he arrives. |

Kikyou's death in Inuyasha. Kikyou is one of the few characters who proved to be an actual threat to Naraku, making her one of his main targets. Unfortunately, Naraku eventually gets the upper hand and drives her into a corner and finally deals a fatal blow to the priestess. During her final moments, she visited her sister, Kaede, in spirit form, and apologizes for the suffering she has caused her and shares a final kiss with her former lover, Inuyasha. She then exclaims that she's finally become what she always wanted, an ordinary woman, and her soul leaves her fake body and embraces all present as if saying farewell. | |

Parodied in The Adventures of Dr. McNinja, at the end of the D.A.R.E. arc. While Benjamin Franklin's clone is a character in the comic, Doc wistfully thanks the memory of founding father Benjamin Franklin for designing the Constitution in such a way that would prevent the president from becoming too powerful. The image of Franklin in the clouds appears to correct him, saying that he wasn't responsible for that part. Also shows up later on during the Futures Saving arc with Dan & Mitzi performing a Heroic Sacrifice together. |

Played with in Homestuck, the dead heroes are shown to be concerned at first because the Big Bad is still active and their friends who are still alive are in trouble, but pretty shortly they relax because they no longer have to worry and basically gain the opportunity to build a sort of mutual afterlife with all the dead versions of themselves and their friends from other potential timelines. That is of course until Lord English enters the happy afterlife they've built together, double-murders it's inhabitants and proceeds to destroy it so thoroughly that the only remaining evidence is a pulsing crack in space and time. Oh, and just because you died happily doesn't mean everyone did, and some of these angsty teens have been stewing in grudges and insanity for billions of years (see Damara, who wants to work with Lord English so she can watch her "friends" become Deader than Dead (again (permanently))). |

Metaphorically it takes place in Five Little Pigs: the actions of the hateful Woman Scorned cause the death of the happy (if often dysfunctional) married couple, but she herself admits that she failed to ruin their love for one another and in the end they "both escaped - they went somewhere where I couldn’t get at them". | |

In The Order of the Stick's "Start of Darkness: Dorukan fails to rescue Lirian's soul from a magical gem and ends up trapped with her, she assures him it is no longer a prison to her. In the comic proper, attempts to raise Lord Shojo fail; Belkar points out that all Shojo had to look forward to in life was a trial and death from old age, so there's no reason for him to come back from the Chaotic Good afterlife. Miko ends up dying at peace when, despite knowing that she will never be a paladin again, she learns that her horse and possibly only friend Windstriker will be waiting for her in the afterlife, even if he'll only be visiting her in whatever Neutral afterlife she's probably bound for. Durkon dies happy knowing that he will finally be able to return to the Dwarven lands, as the Oracle specified that it would be posthumously. Subverted when it's revealed that Durkon's body is being controlled by a Vampiric parasite who is also the High Priest of Hel, whose goal is to destroy the world through the Godsmoot, while Durkon is trapped inside his own head, watching but unable to do anything. His return to the Dwarven lands will in fact be posthumous, as he is returning as a vampire bent on turning the entire Dwarven Council of Clans into vampires in order to sway the vote to destroy the world. |

Seita and Setsuko in Grave of the Fireflies. At the start of the movie, we see Seita's soul taking a train ride (which may or may not be a reference to Chris DeBurgh's Spanish Train), and it ends with the now very long dead siblings going to sleep just outside modern-day Kobe. No explanation is offered as to what this final scene actually means, although it is implied that they're at peace. | |

For the most part, the eventual fate of those who die in Discworld novels is ambiguous, as Death accompanies them to a desert they must cross, and the readers never see what awaits them on the other side (though it's implied that it's whatever they ultimately expect/deserve). There is one exception; the golem Anghammarad in Going Postal decides not to cross it at all, as he spent 19,000 years of his existence trying to deliver a message (and willing to wait for time to start over to complete his task), and having no further orders to follow is bliss. | |

In the movie Casper, this is actually a plot point; in this film those who die only cross over to the afterlife if they pass on this fashion - in turn, ghosts are those who die but leave "unfinished business" that ties them to the mortal world, though fulfilling whatever it was they never accomplished allows them to cross over when they do realize it. When the ghost of the lead villain tries to intimidate Kat and Casper they remind her that she achieved what she wanted which instantly forces her to cross over, then at the end Kat's mother briefly returns from the afterlife to assure her father that she passed on happily which is why he'll never find her - and begs him to not let his search prevent him from crossing over when the time comes. | |

Darker than Black does this in the last episode where the protagonist receives encouragement from characters who have died in the course of the series. Kind of a unique example, as nearly all of these characters were antagonists of the protagonist, and most of those died by his hand, but given the Grey-and-Gray Morality of the series it makes sense. | |

At the end of The Good Place, the main characters have saved the world, redesigned the afterlife so it allows everyone to eventually get into the Good Place, and given all residents of the Good Place the option to go through Cessation of Existence once they've experienced enough of eternal happiness. After earning their way into the Good Place, reconciling with their loved ones and experiencing thousands of years of paradise, Jason, Chidi and Eleanor choose to walk through the Last Door and peacefully dissolve into sparks of light. | |

Common in the Septimus Heap universe. That's because almost everyone who dies in that universe, with a few exceptions, becomes a ghost—and although there are a few hazards to that, including things that, yes, can kill a ghost, the deceased can continue to have happy existences. The biggest example is probably Alice Nettles, who gets to be with her beloved after her death, in ghost-form. | |

Shadows of Forgotten Ancestors: Played ambiguously. As Ivan stumbles into the forest, mortally wounded, he senses Marichka's ghost walking nearby and begins to smile. She reaches out to touch him, and he screams, dying. Whether he's happily reunited at last with Marichka is up to the viewer. | |

The cultural ideal for the aetherborn of Kaladesh in Magic: The Gathering is to go out calmly at the end of a big party, having left all their friends with good memories and taken, in exchange, only a promise to pay it forward - although many do use variably ethical means to extend their short lifespans. Yahenni, in particular, goes out having both helped overthrow a tyrannical government and made shy hero Nissa feel at home, in Renewal: Just before Yahenni's death, Nissa had also told her the truth of the multiverse: that Kaladesh is one of many worlds, and the Aether is the matter they are made of. Yahenni not only dies triumphant, but also knowing that they are becoming one with the multiverse. |

In the Serbian film Underground the various main characters fall victim to mostly violent deaths in either of the world wars or the Balkan conflicts. The final scene shows all the characters reunited in a bucolic feast. As they party, the ground around their table breaks away and drifts into the ocean, symbolizing their trip into the afterlife (as well as symbolize the film's theme of balkanization). | |

The Little Match Girl dies from exposure in the snow on New Year's Eve. From her perspective, this counts as a happy ending as she gets to be reunited with her beloved grandmother in Heaven and doesn't have to suffer anymore in this sinful earth. For those left behind who realize how unnecessary and preventable the Death of a Child was, however, it's an Esoteric Happy Ending at best. | |

Survivors of the apocalypsenote its final stage, interrupted in the middle, to be precise; the previous millennium turned out to be the first stages that lasted that long thanks to the actions of the resident Big Bad Anti-Villain emerge out of their shelter to find dead bodies of the central characters — Vin and Elend — and a letter from the new god — Harmony, formerly known as Sazed. The letter says that while he is a god that rebuilt the world, he still cannot resurrect the dead, but he assures the readers that those two are happy in the place where they are. | |

Call of Duty: Zombies: Mob of the Dead revolves around four gangsters trapped in a hellish purgatory based on Alcatraz prison, with the player left to decide if either they continue their eternal cycle of torment or if one of them, Al, gets off easy and the remaining three are subject to eternal damnation. The follow-up map Blood of the Dead shows all of them and countless other souls trapped in Alcatraz and establishes they’ve been here a long time. The end of the map sees Primis defeat Brutus and finally free all the souls from the Alcatraz dimension, and we see one last appearance of Al in his Icarus form, flying to freedom in the afterlife. | |

The Sandman (1989): Wanda, a transgender woman with a crippling fear of sex-change surgery in the graphic novel A Game of You is denied entrance to the dreamworld on the basis that for magical purposes, she's not a "real" woman, is killed ignobly, and her parents insist on burying her dressed as a man with her birth name "Alvin" on her gravestone and not acknowledge that she self-identified as female for most of her adult life. Yikes. But when the main character Barbie sees her spirit enter the afterlife, it is as a woman, secure in her identity and no longer "camp or artificial" as she had appeared in life (as her facial features were too recognizably masculine for her to appear quite as feminine as she desired). | |

She eventually discovers a letter from the sister telling her daughters to free her from the urn before she died. She has a Heel Realization and performs a Heroic Sacrifice to save everyone else from the spell she's cast. She is shown reunited with both her sisters in the afterlife. Cora dies with her heart being restored to her, realising that her love for Regina "would have been enough". She properly makes amends in the Underworld and is rewarded with going to Heaven. Belle dies of old age in the very last season but got to live a full and happy life with Rumpelstiltskin. When he dies in the final episode, she appears to welcome him into the afterlife with her. |

After getting addicted to steroids, Captain Hero befriends fellow addict Popeye, who eventually dies from AIDS he contracted from sharing steroid needles, and asks Hero to get clean for him as his dying wish. Hero does this by getting clean and "winning" the AIDS walk (by injuring and killing most of the other participants), and claiming the AIDS quilt as a trophy. He tributes the victory to Popeye, and sees his image in the clouds. His reaction? | |

Sailor Moon: The Shitennou (Jadeite, Nephrite, Zoisite, and Kunzite) from the original manga version end up this way, their smiling souls fading away while saying that they'll always watch over Endymion/Mamoru. In the anime version, this happens to the Amazon Trio, who die but gain human souls that are allowed to dwell in Elysion afterwards. A common interpretation of Nehellennia's fate in the Stars season. She's seen being restored to her child self back in her court, where her subjects will now befriend her. A common fan theory is that she was given a Mercy Kill and this is her in the afterlife. |
