People fainting in Real Life when presented with a shocking development is a dire occurrence. When it does happen, it's not just suddenly falling asleep. Extreme onset of emotion from fear or anxiety can actually cause some people to go into a comatose state. This is the reason doctors or emergency personnel often ask the recipient to sit down before breaking bad news, such as the death of a loved-one or a scary diagnosis like cancer. Medically, fainting is called "syncope". It's generally caused by the brain not getting enough of a bloodflow to work properly, which in turn may be caused by a number of factors, some harmless and some not-so-harmless. When in doubt, ask your doctor. Fainting in fiction usually takes one of the following forms: The Corset Faint: One of the oldest versions of the trope hanging around from the late unlamented days of the tightlaced corset, when, supposedly, women were a deep breath away from being cut in twain. Anemia Faint: An affliction common among Japanese shoujo heroines, causing them to black out at inopportune times and thus, give their love interests a convenient excuse to hold them and act all manly and protective. Also a staple in tragic Victorian literature heroes, as tuberculosis was rampant and romanticized in that era, and anemia was one of the symptoms of tuberculosis, with the blood coughing and all. Also tends to happen to people who have recently been kissed by a vampire or lost blood in some other dramatic way.note Truth in Television to an extent. This is why you get an iron test when you give blood and the necessary threshold is set above what counts as anemic — you can faint while giving even if your iron is only slightly down. It's also one of the reasons why the nice folks at the donation center tell you not to do any heavy exercise for the next 12 hours. Fake Faint, or Faint Feint: A character pretends to lose consciousness in order to create a distraction. Shares its habitat with Corset Faint above, although it can be done by anyone in just about any time period. Even Sherlock Holmes has done it! (Watson also mentions him fainting from hunger, but this never happens on page.) Pregnancy Faint: A way to indicate that a female character is now expecting, slightly more dramatic than Morning Sickness. In real life, it's very rare (usually it ends at dizziness). Exhaustion Faint: This one happens when a character is exhausted from overwork, overexercise, a heat wave, Crossing the Desert etc. Also Truth in Television. See Power-Strain Blackout and Post-Victory Collapse for common forms of this in fiction. A Fainting Seer may be considered a subtrope. Faint in Shock, sometimes called an "Emotional Faint", is a subtrope. Any time a character faints due to their emotions getting to be too much to handle. In Real Life, this is called "vasovagal syncope". Not to be confused with Non-Lethal K.O., due to the term "fainting" being occasionally interchanged with getting knocked out thanks to certain games like Pokémon. |

In Underdogs, the protagonists find Shannon shortly before she stabs an assassin to death and then passes out. She stays unconscious while they transport her back to their base. Lorraine, a nurse, thinks she's faking at least some of it, since faints typically only last a few minutes. | |

When she wakes up, Lord Maccon points out that despite the bloody goings-on, Alexia practically never faints.

In Dragon Age: Origins, one of the pickpocketing quests in the Crime Spree questline requires you to steal a heavily jeweled decorative sword off a lady knight while she's shopping. If you have a high enough persuasion/cunning, you can convince her that she's afflicted with a horrible disease that will cause her lungs to stop working in a short time and tell her the only thing she can do to save her life is to breathe as rapidly as she can. She promptly begins to hyperventilate and faints, allowing you to steal the sword. | |

If you avoid punching him out and opt to talk him down, he'll eventually just faint from sheer stress. | |

The Defenders of the Earth episode "A Demon in His Pocket" contains a scene where Mandrake is apparently taken ill on live TV, sending Lothar hurrying onto the studio floor. It turns out that there's nothing physically wrong with Mandrake, whose collapse was brought on by his sensing the presence of the demon Shogoth. | |

Girl Genius: Gil manages to just barely avoid this in public after his single-handed victory over a small army attacking Mechanicsburg: After Gil pulls Tarvek out of the time stop, and rather painfully heals his most recent poisoning by his family, Tarvek ends up falling dead asleep the minute their conversation pauses, and doesn't even wake up when Gill carries him to bed or when he's abducted. Much later on, Seffie immediately passes out after confirming she's managed to save her doofus brother Tweedle's life; her attendant comments she hasn't slept in days. |

This is both played straight and parodied in Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl. Early on, Elizabeth faints from her overly-tight corset; near the end, she pretends to faint in order to distract the local guards. In Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man's Chest, it's parodied again as she pretends to faint in an attempt to break up a fight between her current and former fiancés, and they both ignore her. The fact that she's not wearing a corset in the latter instance probably has something to do with the men ignoring her. The reason cited (the heat) is less-than-convincing coming from a convicted pirate/swordswoman who's spent more than her share of time in the tropics. That, and they're so focused on surviving their three-man swordfight that they continue to not notice her when she starts shouting and throwing clumps of sand. | |

Ophelia: Near the ending, she collapses from exhaustion as she walks into a convent, with a nun rushing forward to catch her and help her inside. She'd been travelling for days, possibly weeks, and recovering from the effects of snake venom, on top of going through the emotional wringer, so it's unsurprising she needs a break once she's safe. Plus, she may be in the early stages of pregnancy. | |

My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic: The first time the Mane 6 use the Elements of Harmony, in "Friendship is Magic Part 2", they are next seen laying unconscious on the ground before they wake up. This doesn't happen any other time they use the Elements. Applejack faints from both exhaustion and shock in "Applebuck Season" on seeing there were a lot more trees full of apples when she thought she was done applebucking. While shock is a major factor here she was already extremely sleep-deprived from trying to buck all the apple trees on her own and was subsequently screwing up helping out her friends with various tasks throughout the episode. Twilight appears to faint from exhaustion when Starlight takes her cutie mark in "The Cutie Map Part 1". The other Mane 5 stay conscious when she does the same to them. |

In The Mermaid's Mirror, Lena's dad takes her to meet his boss, who works in a corner office on the twenty-ninth floor of a skyscraper. Lena faints from being so high up. Her mermaid ancestry means that if she's too far away from the ocean, she suffers health problems. | |

Played for laughs in Pokémon: The Series when, in the episode "Here Comes the Squirtle Squad", Ash keeps getting very unlucky on his way to get a super potion for Pikachu. After being barely able to walk, Ash notices the shop and as he is about to enter, Gary opens the door right in his face. He mumbles "I beg your pardon," and then faints out of exhaustion. | |

Nagisa in Strawberry Panic! has fainted a few times in romantic scenes, apparently because Onee-sama Shizuma's presence is just that powerful. Usually it's only for a few seconds—just long enough to be caught by another character (who, surprisingly, is not always Shizuma), or fall to her knees but recover. However, the first time kept her out long enough to be moved from the field to her room quite some distance away, and for her roommate to have watched her for long enough for it to be creepy. | |

In Tsukihime, Shiki is a Rare Male Example, suffering from it after his backstory Near-Death Experience. Like many female examples, it often serves the purpose of allowing his love interest to protect him and keep him safe, and throughout the story he ends up semi-regularly collapsing from it, especially in the Far Side routes where he's getting too close to figuring out the secret behind where it comes from. | |

This happens a few times in Negima! Magister Negi Magi, usually to Nodoka, although once she was let in on The Masquerade * and now has an explanation for stuff like seeing five of your teacher or getting attacked by a vampire, she got much better about this. | |
