Giving Up the Ghost | comment |
This is a comedy trope often found in anime and manga. Sometimes, a character may feel like they could die at any moment due to some form of sudden external stimulation or just plain exhaustion. It could be getting knocked out with a sudden blow to the head, being scared half to death, a sudden shock to the system, being pushed to the point of physical exhaustion, or some other form of Amusing Injury. This results in the character's very soul momentarily escaping from their body, most often from their mouth. It doesn't matter how it happens, but it's a comedic way of showing that the character just nearly died or felt like they are about to. They nearly gave up the ghost. This is always just temporary and the character is likely to be back to normal in the next scene. Contrast the Western Winged Soul Flies Off at Death, which usually indicates death (and the soul has to be forced back if not). |

In one chapter of Squid Girl, Squid Girl wants to be taller, and tries different ways to grow taller, but they do not work. The last attempt ends up with Squid Girl's leg muscle being popped, and Squid Girl states how she is growing taller... until it's revealed that Squid Girl's ghost is now drifting off. Squid Girl is quickly awakened, luckily. | |

In episode 15 of Oh! Edo Rocket, Shunpei is so worried about his constant worrying that he can't get any sleep. When Onui wakes up the next morning, she sees that his body is a shriveled up husk and his spirit is drifting out of a pouch hanging from his waist. She panics and quickly revives him. | |

Asteroid in Love: In the fifth chapter, Mira does this when Ao mentions discovering an asteroid is increasingly difficult. A more dramatic version occurs in the thirty-fourth chapter, when both Mira and Ao are having a Heroic BSoD when it turns out one of them is accepted to the Shining Star Challenge while the other doesn't make it. Mira goes Blank White Eyes and have this at the same time. |

One episode of Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood had Edward get smacked upside his head so hard by Winry's wrench that his soul started to escape from it. A surprised Alphonse grabs onto it and says: "I've got your soul, brother!" Young Edward does this after getting his butt kicked during a teaching lesson with Izumi, back when both brothers initially began their alchemy training. This happens to Ed a LOT, usually as a result of getting the business end of Winry's wrench after breaking his automail. One memorable example involves Winry calmly working on Ed's automail while he holds onto his soul with two fingers. |

The 100 Girlfriends Who Really, Really, Really, Really, Really Love You: A frequent Running Gag is for someone's soul to pop right out of their head, usually as a result of some form of Cuteness Overload or other form of bliss. This often results in another character grabbing the soul and popping it back into its owner as a Funny Background Event. In chapter 58, for example, the sight of Hahari dressed as a high-schooler sends her maid Mei's soul popping out, only for Nano to pop it back in. In chapter 106, the opposite happens as Hahari's ghost begins popping out in her bliss at being thanked by Kurumi for the all-you-can-eat yakiniku the family is having. Mei has to grab her soul and pop it back in before the fans in the room suck it away. | |

One of the more comedic scenes in The Sacred Blacksmith involves Charlotte and her bodyguards. First by Charlotte from the shock that a princess like herself has to perform the tasks of a common servant as well as look the part. Her friends decide to gang up on Fio for subjecting her to such a state, and then this happens to all three of them after Fio effortlessly knocks them out and leaves them piled up on the floor. | |

Early Monster Musume would have this happen to someone almost every chapter. Either it's an unfortunate victim of Miia's cooking or it's Kimihito being injured by someone in his Unwanted Harem getting overly enthusiastic again. There's a little bit of Fridge Horror when it's revealed that he actually dies and comes back to life every time he gets hurt this badly. | |

In Seraph of the End Omake 1 for season two, when Mika asks Krul to tell him why she wants the Seraph of the End, she whispers into his ear. However, she's just saying "whisper, whisper", making Mika asks her to repeat herself. About the third time he asks her to repeat, she whispers, "About Yuuichiro, actually—" Followed by a long censored beep. Whatever it was she said, it caused Mika to have a fully red face and then promptly pass out while his soul happily ascends to heaven. Krul is amused. | |

A few times in Lucky Star: Konata gives hers up after gaming for 3 days straight. In the very next scene, Miss Kuroi gives it up as she rushes to the classroom and tells her students to switch out of summer break mode and go back to focusing on school. The class is shocked that she's saying that when she's not even prepared herself. Hiyori Tamura does this after pulling off an all-nighter to meet her manga submission deadline. |

A fairly common gag in We Never Learn is that someone rather distressed at what someone else has said will undergo this. One particular instance was, when Rizu and Fumino inadvertently reveal more Not What It Looks Like incidents to Kirisu-sensei that the latter hadn't heard about before, Yuiga not only does this, but his ghost simultaneously coughs up blood. | |

Haruhi-chan: Happens to the Computer Club members in the 5th episode after the dodgeball game. In Episode 10, both Yuki and Mini-Ryoko give up the ghost after being knocked out. Before that, Yuki gave it up when the scene cuts to the bedroom, whereas Mini-Ryoko gives it up after a failed Wall Jump. In the Christmas Episode, when Haruhi hits Kyon, after a short time, Kyon's ghost emerges from his body. Oddly enough, it remains until later on. |

This happens to Kurumi in the 2nd episode of Pani Poni Dash! when Becky called her a boring girl who has no noticeable characteristics. Her soul can be seen just floating out of her mouth. When Becky calls her "Boring Girl" again, her ghost screams out in further shock. It just escapes further and further outward across the rest of the episode until it finally flies away when Ichijo adds the final nail to the coffin. It happens a few other times across the series too. | |

This occurs in episode 2 of Fairy Tail during the guild brawl. Lucy is speaking with Mirajane about the commotion, asking if this is normal for the guild. As Mira is replying that they guild is always like this, Her brother Elfman is thrown into her, knocking her unconscious and giving up her ghost. This also happens in episode 8. Kage gives up his ghost when he is informed that he looks like the Blue Pegasus guild master, Bob, when he was younger. Master Makarov does this in the the episode when Natsu, Gray and Erza defeat the demon from the lullaby, but destroy the Guild Master meeting hall in the process. In the anime version after Elfman just curbstomps Sol, he gives up the ghost and the enraged Elfman grabs it, shoves it back in, and beats the shit out of him some more! |

This happens quite frequently in Love Hina, especially with Mutsumi Otohime. Early on she was prone to "dying" (she faints) at the drop of a hat, so much so that it gets lampshaded quite often. At one point, Motoko noticed such a serene calm coming from Mutsumi during a New Years ritual that she thought she was achieving Buddhist transcendence... until everyone realized that Mutsumi was about to die from the cold, so they had to grab her soul and wake her up again. | |

In Splatoon, splatted Inklings have their squid-form "ghost" float upward and head back to their spawn point. One ability, "Haunt", even causes said ghost to haunt the guilty party and revealing them on the map to your teammates for a short time. The same goes for Octolings, who leave octopus-shaped ones, of course. | |

My Bride is a Mermaid shows this happening to "Chimp" Sarutobi on a few occasions. The first time is when Nagasume takes him to the nurses office after he had been knocked out in the classroom. Nagasume was surprised to see that the school nurse was Sun's mother, Ran, and promptly tosses Saru to the floor. Saru was about to regain consciousness when Ran instinctively kicks him in the face and makes him give up the ghost. Another instance is during Gym class when a submarine emerges from under the floor, right directly under Saru. He gets knocked around so hard that everyone nearly forgot about him laying in a corner with his soul raising up from his mouth. Even Sun isn't exempt of this trope. When she realizes that Akeno is conducting a Mermaid exam on her to determine if she's allowed to stay where she lives, Sun starts to tense up at the thought that anything she does next may compromise her situation. Her soul takes the form of a little angel that revolves on top of her head. Akeno lampshades this by saying that it looked like her soul was about to fly away. |

In No Game No Life, after three days and 500 nonstop rounds (158 wins, 158 losses, 184 ties) of games between Sora and Shiro in order to determine who will be the sole ruler of Elchea, they pushed themselves to the brink of exhaustion and passed out after doing this. Even bystander Stephanie Dola started having delusions after being tired of waiting for them for so long, and eventually gave up hers at the same time too. | |
