Just Eat Him	comment	The nature of predator and prey is often made more complicated than it needs to be. Especially when the prey just happens to be the protagonist. For instance, if the predator seeks to kill his enemy or turn it into food, one would think that the process would be fairly simple. Just have it catch the prey in its mouth, chew its flesh and/or bones into a nonliving paste, and swallow it. If the character is fodder for the Monster of the Week or a horror antagonist, this doesn't happen. One of the following two outcomes almost always ensues: The predator catches the prey in its mouth. It chews for a while, and then spits it out again. The victim may be injured, or traumatized, or covered in a massive amount of spittle, but he is likely to survive. The predator catches the prey in its mouth, and then swallows it whole without chewing. This may make sense for snakes and sea life, but even toothy carnivores seem to do this. Unfortunately for the predator, this approach tends to result in either a "Fantastic Voyage" Plot or Womb Level on the part of the victim, and often results in the creature's death or discomfort due to damage to vital organs and the like. This version is often used as a family friendly fate for a character, since this isn't obviously graphic. Sounds of the person being chewed up need not be included, and neither does there need to be any blood or remains depicted, though it hinges on the younger members of the audience not realizing that being contained in an airless, claustrophobic, fleshy area and being covered with highly corrosive hydrochloric acid, enzymes and other digestive chemicals would be one of the most horrible deaths imaginable. It also doesn't make sense if the eater is intelligent and savoring the meal at hand, to the point of verbally describing it; swallowing a piece of food whole, especially meat, means you don't really get to taste it. The first example is especially common in video games with a life meter, as getting a Game Over because you made one mistake at full health wouldn't really make for an entertaining boss fight, though the boss may swallow if the player's health reaches zero while they're in its mouth. Those that do kill the player instantly tend to appear in the survival horror genre, or serve as stage obstacles in platformers. The carnivorous equivalent of Just Hit Him. Not to be confused with Just Eat Gilligan. Compare Eat Me when someone deliberately tries to get eaten. May involve a Mouth Cam. May be averted, or at least delayed, by Palate Propping. Contrast Eating the Enemy where the foe actually does (or at least tries to) devour their foe efficiently.

On at least one occasion, Sylvester has successfully eaten Tweety Bird, at which point Tweety starts walking around in Sylvester's head and eventually escapes. Even taking wacky cartoon/Rule of Funny physics as a given, it makes the whole exercise seem rather pointless. Another example took this only a tiny bit more realistically. Sylvester and Tweety are staying in a hospital and Nurse Granny finds Sylvester looking full with feathers in his mouth. She rushes him to an X-ray and Tweety's silhouette is seen in Sylvester's stomach. Cut to Sylvester in his bed with a surgical bandage on his stomach and a completely unharmed Tweety next to him saying "Bad ol' puddytat!"

If said victim is your character, you do have a chance to cut or blast yourself free, but you'd better make it quick. If you're wearing a ring of slow digestion, the worm automatically spits you back out. This attack form also means that PWs make useful pets if you can magically tame them, but you and the worm may eventually learn that swallowing certain types of creatures is a really bad idea.

He mutates as an Eldritch Abomination and eats Kirby with a huge eyed mouth from his stomach and spits him from the mouth. Note that here being eaten causes the damage, while normally it's caused because of being spit against a wall at full strength.

(It's said enemies' strongest combo attack and can poison you in the case of the aptly named Carnivorous Plant.) The Rockgagong in Tales of Graces devours the party and serves as a short dungeon (They end up escaping with a pouch of pepper they acquired by accident). It also tries to snap up anyone to who's standing too close to its face while you're fighting it as an Optional Boss later, which removes any victims for the rest of the battle. For some awkward reason, this attack is blockable, which makes it a lot less threatening it sounds (Unless the AI is the one standing close to it...).

Just Eat Him / int_6ac55ec7	comment	In Dungeons & Dragons 3rd Edition, some creatures have a special attack called "Swallow Whole" which causes massive damage by crushing and acid. It is possible for a victim to cut their way out (in which case, inexplicably, "muscular action closes the hole" without exception) or in some cases, climb back into the mouth and out. Notably, it is a semi-feasible strategy to fight the legendary Tarrasque from within, as its spell-reflecting carapace and absurd number of natural weapons make it more dangerous on the outside. (Acid-resistance spells are still a good idea, though.) In 4th Edition, it's no longer possible to carve your way out of the creature until it's dead. Creatures still have much lower internal AC than external, though. Some monsters still have an escape roll option; some are insubstantial or gelatinous so you literally push through, the rest you can only assume you crawl back out their mouth. Or somewhere else. As an aside, the game's titular dragons are by and large not among the monsters who try this, despite being big enough to do it as they grow older (doing so requires the dragon take certain feats). In the Blood War, the conflict between devils and demons, a lot of Mooks that form fiendish armies, like lemures and manes, don't stay dead under most condition, having incredible regenerative abiliies. One way to make sure they stay dead is to eat them, and this is often a practical method used by fiends on the opposing army. Any fiend worth his salt has little qualms against eating sentient beings, after all. Still, this method doesn't work for mortals who fight fiends, even members of races who are willing to do it; the flesh of fiends isn't something that any mortal creature could stomach...

Just Eat Him / int_727259ac	comment	Horribly averted in one episode, "The Boy Who Cried Rat", of The Ren & Stimpy Show. Ren pretends to be an invading mouse so that his resulting havoc will force the house's owners to hire and pay for Stimpy, who is masquerading as a mouse catcher. When Stimpy is forcibly encouraged by the house's husband to eat rather than release the mouse aka Ren, Stimpy tries to hold him in his mouth, but again is encouraged by the husband to chew it so he can eat it faster. Cue Ren inside shown being grinded back and forth between Stimpy's suddenly humongous teeth. And being a cartoon character, Ren lives through the entire experience, albeit heavily mutilated (by cartoon standards).

Just Eat Him / int_74f7210c	comment	This is very common in The Legend of Zelda series. Like-Likes have appeared in the series since the first game. Their main attack is to swallow Link whole, then spit him out with only minor damage. This may be justified, considering that the creatures seem more interested in devouring his shield or armor. Any boss monster that actually manages to catch Link in its mouth tends to merely do several hearts of damage and then release him. Recent 3D games treat this as a mini-cutscene. Moldworms, unlike most swallowing enemies, do not spit Link out, rather putting him through the entire digestive process (yeesh). Strangely, this is not necessarily fatal.

This transformation was sufficient to make something inside the T. rex go all 'splodey. You try swallowing something that proceeds to start growing inside you. Earlier, Rachel and Tobias got swallowed by a Kronosaurus. Rachel then turned into a bear and mauled her way into its lungs looking for breathable air (whereupon it conveniently beached itself to die). It also plays the horrific nature of what that would entail quite graphically, making quite clear that our heroes are being covered in very painful stomach acids. Plus, Kronosaurus is actually big enough to pull this off.

When they defeat the dragon who ate him, he's regurgitated and is spit out. Despite having been in there for many years, he's fine, except his shell smells of dragon insides.

You get health every time you lick it, so suffice to say it is an easy boss. Yoshi's Island has a boss battle where you are eaten by a frog, and must kill it from the inside.

Just Eat Him / int_de8fbc8e	comment	The ending of Godzilla 2000 has Orga expanding his jaws like a snake. Godzilla, realizing his opponent has made a fatal mistake, willingly goes inside, and as Orga absorbs more of his DNA and begins growing Godzilla-like spines, Godzilla charges up his atomic breath to a point where he starts glowing orange. When he fires the beam, he blows the top half of Orga's body to bits.

Just Eat Him / int_df238852	comment	In Muramasa: The Demon Blade, while in Hell, Momohime has to let herself be eaten by an Oni in order to retrieve Jinkuro's soul after she unwittenly causes it to be eaten. She even convinces it to swallow her whole for her plan to work. Given that she has swords, getting out it easy (and takes a whole life bar from the Oni). What's strange is that midway through the fight, the Oni will try and eat her again, leading to the same outcome, despite having been slashed from the inside before. Hell, it poses minimum threat.

Inquisitor Amberley Vail points out victims are likely crushed by muscular action or suffocated long before they have to worry about being digested.

Just Eat Him / int_eb1883c0	comment	In Tremors 3: Back to Perfection, Burt actually gets eaten by a Graboid at one point. Fortunately, it swallows him whole and he still had his walkie-talkie on him, so he was able to coach the nearby Jack into tricking Graboid into smashing itself against one of the underground concrete walls surrounding his compound. Jack, in turn, manages to dig down to the Graboid and cut it open in time to get Burt safely out. Justified, since Burt wound up taking refuge in a 55-gallon steel drum while being swallowed (so he had some "chewing armor.") Of course, the drum was nowhere to be seen when it came time to chainsaw Burt back out.

Just Eat Him / int_ebfefbc1	comment	In Bowdlerized versions of some fairy tales, most notably Little Red Riding Hood, it often turns out that the wolf (or similar predator) swallowed its victim whole, thus allowing for a happy reunion after the events have played out. Subverted by an adaptation of Peter and the Wolf by "Weird Al" Yankovic. "Which means the gastric juices slowly dissolved his body and he died a long, painful death." Subverted with a vengeance in Todd McFarlane's Twisted Fairy Tales line of figures, in which Little Red Riding Hood, clad in a leather bikini, hooded cloak, and thigh-high spiked boots, holds up the corpse of an eviscerated wolf to show the messy contents of his stomach (which included Grandma). In reference to this, Granny Weatherwax said: "That's just what children get told."

Just Eat Him / int_eda6d96a	comment	In Spirited Away, No-Face swallows first a talking frog (taking on its voice), and then a pair of bath attendants, only to vomit them later (unharmed) along all the food he'd gobbled down. Though, as he's a very strange shadow creature, eating and digesting are probably just unnatural for No-Face. He absorbed his surroundings—in that case, the greed and avarice of the bathhouse. He took on the voice of everyone he'd swallowed at once. Purged of his greed (and everything else) he returned to his original mild-mannered appearance.
