Mortal Wound Reveal | comment |
Usually happens in an action scene—bullets and blades flying every which way—chaos and mayhem dominate. At either a lull in the fighting, or the final victory of one side (usually the heroes), we see one of the characters standing fairly still, looking pale. Then something about the scene changes. Either the camera pans to reveal a gaping hole that really shouldn't be there, or essential parts of the character drop off. They don't have to die instantly, but the wound has to be lethal, and revealed. The heroic version tends to be used in works where Anyone Can Die, and played for tragedy. The villainous version tends to be either a) the loved one of the Big Bad, so they go berserk—which usually humanises colder villains, or b) a major villain has been killed, most often The Dragon or the Big Bad, bringing that arc to a close, sometimes unexpectedly early. Mooks are too small fry to waste serious stage directions on. May arrive after a Gory Discretion Shot, as a sort of Subversion though this is by no means necessary. More often there's no clue given that anyone on the team that thinks they won is hurt beforehand. May very well be used in an example of Not Quite Saved Enough. See also Gun Struggle, Bullet Holes and Revelations, and Diagonal Cut. Some forms of Robotic Reveal subvert this trope—the robot, of course, does not die from their 'mortal' wound. Compare Almost Dead Guy, After-Action Healing Drama, Agonizing Stomach Wound, Belated Injury Realization, Zombie Infectee (where the injured party deliberately hides that they've received a wound, rather than the author/director hiding it from the audience), and Game-Breaking Injury (where it's specifically the Hero who receives a significant—though not necessarily mortal—wound). Non-lethal examples will usually go under either Secret Stab Wound, or if they really don't fit either of those tropes for some reason, go here as a Playing With of some kind, invoking either No One Could Survive That!, or No One Should Survive That!. May result in the dying character doing The Dying Walk. Sometimes foreshadowed by I'm Cold... So Cold.... As this is a Death Trope and a form of The Reveal, unmarked spoilers abound. Beware. |

Tokyo Ghoul √A uses a bait-and-switch approach to this. Blood dripping is shown repeatedly during a scene, seemingly coming from the heavily wounded Kaneki. But then Hide collapses, and reveals a stomach wound gushing blood. He dies in Kaneki's arms shortly afterwards, leading to Kaneki's ambiguous Suicide by Cop. | |

Bleach has a not-so-villainous example with Ulquiorra. He's able to get back up and stop Ichigo's Superpowered Evil Side after being on the receiving end of a Curb-Stomp Battle, so none of the heroes realize how injured he really is until his remaining wing explodes into ashnote a sign that his Healing Factor wasn't working. Then again, his thoughts also reveal that his organs are not coming back. | |

A tank example in Girls und Panzer. During the Final Battle, the Hetzer manages to execute a plan to destroy the enemy's Maus tank, but shortly afterward, it shuts down from the damage it took; the tanks have a system in which if they're hit with sufficient force, or take enough damage, a flag rises and they're out of the game. | |

Played with in the Looney Tunes short A Corny Concerto. Porky Pig and his hunting dog are hunting Bugs Bunny, and after a chipmunk gets ahold of Porky's rifle and shoots it, the three of them stand to the camera with their hands over their chest. Porky and his dog both cautiously check under their hands, and realize they're fine. Bugs peeks under his hand, goes green and collapses. He's faking, of course. | |

Catch-22: Yossarian is introduced in the first episode climbing out of a burning B-25 completely naked with his face covered in blood. In the finale, we see what happened: the bomber is hit by flak and the Ensign Newbie is wounded. It doesn't appear to be serious... until Yossarian goes to pull him away from the wall, revealing two huge holes in the bomber's hull where the Ensign Newbie's torso had been. Yossarian opens the man's jacket to reveal his entire torso is reduced to hamburger; he dies in Yo-yo's arms moments later. | |

Naruto loves to invert this trope. A ninja gets filled with shuriken, stabbed, or nailed with a high-powered Jutsu. A few reaction shots... and then the predictable reveal that the ninja A. was a Clone, B. used a Substitution Jutsu, or C. the situation was not what it seemed in another way (Genjutsu, Transformation Jutsu, a last-second counter-move mitigated the hit somehow, they have some sort of regenerative or protective power...) | |

V for Vendetta has an example, where initially it appears that V has superhuman powers by surviving a barrage of gunfire. After dispatching his foes while they frantically try to reload, he removes a home-made metal plate—riddled with bullet holes and covered in blood—from under his shirt, drops it on the ground, and staggers off. Before the this moment, there's a subtle indication: his raspy, pained voice as he delivers his Kirk Summation. | |

Resident Evil (2002) – The Laser Hallway scene has two of these. As the first laser goes by and shears off one commando's fingers, the leader turns to The Medic asking her to help, but she doesn't respond. They look again, and the camera shows a paper-thin red line appearing through her neck before her head falls off. A few seconds later, after a laser grid passes through the leader, he falls apart into chunks of flesh. | |

Trigun arguably subverts this, since it's obvious in a meta sense that Nicholas Wolfwood isn't long for this world following his confrontation with Church, but since Vash is too deep into an Heroic BSoD to notice, the direction doesn't make it explicit until their actual death scene. | |

Mobile Suit Gundam 00 has a particularly cruel Senseless Sacrifice example, where Lichty's Heroic Sacrifice for and reveal of his cyborg nature to Christina Sierra is then followed by the reveal that she'd been pierced by a chunk of shrapnel and he hadn't noticed before he died in her arms. She too dies shortly afterwards, still clutching his body. | |

Forever Knight In the final episode, Vampire Detective Nick Knight is trying to talk a criminal into handing over his gun, but he fires instead causing Nick to vamp out and kill him. He then turns to see his human partner Tracy Vetter (who knows that vampires exist, but not that Nick is one) staring at him in shock. She then does a Wall Slump to reveal the bullet passed through Nick and hit her. A literal version in "The Human Factor" when Janette is revealed to have become mortal again after she takes a bullet. Nick offers to make her a vampire again to save her life, but she refuses. |

The fact that he was wounded is only revealed when the maintenance crew finds blood on his pilot seat and the extent of it when he silently passes away on his girlfriend's couch. As a Shout-Out, Macross Frontier set up the exact same thing with Ozma getting hit in a battle and going to Ranka's concert fully knowing he's gonna die, but him passing out from blood loss alerted his subordinates that something's wrong, saving his life. |

Devil Survivor 2: The Triangulum Arc in Record Breaker starts the third day off with a nightmare of the party having managed to defeat Arcturus, but everyone except for Daichi and Yamato to have died during battle. While the two talk, Daichi turns over and reveals a large, bleeding stomach wound that he's dying from and begs one final promise from Yamato. After he promises, Daichi dies and Yamato wonders how he can fulfill the promise, though, revealing his own mortal wound. This is not a nightmare, but a memory of the world's previous cycle, and Yamato was saved by Al Saiduq, before the latter regressed the world again for another chance. | |

The Ninth Configuration ends with Colonel Kane saving Capt. Cutshaw from a biker gang at a bar. Following the brawl, Cutshaw carries the battered Kane back to the asylum wrapped in a blanket, but it isn't until he's alone that Kane lets the blood-stained knife drop to the floor and begins composing a farewell letter. In the film's original ending (and the story on which it was based), Kane palmed the knife and committed suicide, but the studio insisted at the last minute on changing a line of dialogue to imply that he was actually stabbed in the chaos. (Some argue this was actually an improvement, since Kane's intended lesson—that humans are capable of selflessness—would be broken by suicide.) | |

Scream: In the finale of Scream (1996), Sidney stabs Billy in the shoulder with an umbrella, but doesn't cause any apparent wounds. Later, when the two are grappling, he has a gaping hole there, big enough for Sidney to stick her finger in. Occurs in the opening of Scream 2 when the killer, disguised with Phil's jacket, stabs Maureen in the chest. |

In The West Wing at the end of Season One/beginning of Season Two, the president and his staff are the targets of shooters. After the shots, Toby attempts to find Josh and comes across him sitting against a wall. At first it seems that Josh is fine, but as Toby walks closer he sees that Josh is holding his stomach over a bullet wound. Being a major character, Josh does survive. This trope is also played fairly straight with the President, another bullet victim noticed after the fact (he also lives). | |

When the survivors come to check on him, they see he survived the fall with only a few scratches...and then it's revealed a balcony rung has impaled him through the midriff and he can't move. This leads to Kenny performing a Mercy Kill on him when walkers swarm the alley. | |

In Joseph Heller's Catch-22, Yossarian attempts to tend to the small wound of a crew member who was hit by flak on a bombing mission. But when he loosens the crew member's jumpsuit, he finds a huge exit wound, and can do nothing but attempt to comfort the dying man. The non-chronological order of the narrative makes it a bit hard to tell, but this is the experience that pushes him into him into becoming the paranoid, cowardly Cloud Cuckoo Lander / Only Sane Man that defines his character for most of the novel. | |

In one Legion of Super-Heroes story after Karate Kid fights off a group of muggers the team's precognitive Dream Girl wakes up from a nightmare in which one of the LSH members dies, but she can't remember who. With Karate Kid manning the monitors, the twosome quickly rule out every Legionaire...except him. Suddenly, he passes out and Dream Girl rushes him to the infirmary, where it turns out that he'd been cut badly by one of the muggers, but his strict martial arts discipline had kept him from noticing the pain. It's not said how he and Dream Girl managed to ignore the blood which must have been pouring down his side, soaking his uniform and pooling on the floor, though. | |

Only after everything has calmed down does he realize that Martin hasn't gotten out of the car as well and looks over to see him slumped over, gasping for air, his shirt soaked with blood, revealing that he's been shot. Subverted in that he lives, but barely. | |

Horatio Hornblower: In "The Even Chance", midshipmen Clayton (good guy) and Simpson (bad guy) duel. Hornblower's friend Clayton shoots Simpson and it looks like he has killed him, celebrating with "Got you, bastard!" Next moment shows Clayton with deadly Blood from the Mouth. His injury from the duel is much more serious than Simpson's injured arm and Clayton dies later that day in an inn. Archie Kennedy's wound is revealed after the battle over the ship in "Retribution". Although the wounding is shown (he is shot at and sits down abruptly), it isn't until the aftermath that Horatio rips his coat open and sees that he's been shot in the stomach. It takes him quite a long time for the wound to kill him; the wound was mortal largely because of the state of medicine in early 1800's Europe. |

Only when Baelor's mangled helmet is removed does everyone discover that Baelor has a fatal (and apparently ghastly) head wound at some point in the fighting and his body been running purely on adrenaline since. Baelor then falls unconscious and dies several days later. | |

In the Sherlock Holmes parody The Very Strange Case Of The End Of Civilisation As We Know It, John Cleese as Holmes is shot in the stomach several times with what were supposed to be blanks as part of a clever gambit. When Watson fesses up that he'd forgotten the switch, Holmes surveys the growing bloodstain on his shirt, and irritably scolds Watson for his bungling. | |

The Breaking Bad episode "Face Off", Gus walks away from an explosion caused by a bomb, seemingly unhurt. However, the camera pans around as horrified nurses look on, and reveals that most of the right side of his head is burned or missing. He then collapses and dies. | |

The Matrix franchise: In The Matrix Reloaded, the heroes appear to have escaped through a door just in time to avoid a hail of gunfire from the army of Smiths chasing them. Then The Keymaker turns around to reveal that his torso is riddled with bullet holes. In The Matrix Revolutions, Trinity gets a mortal wound shortly before arriving the core of the Matrix in the real world. Unlike the usual case, this is not a case of Behind the Black as Neo himself is blind at that point (and unlike in the previous film where Neo managed to revive her from a similar wound in the Matrix, she dies for real since this wound is received in the real world). |

Happens in The Quick and the Dead, when two characters face off in a gunfight. Both fire, and one appears fine until he looks down at his shadow and sees light coming through a bullet hole in his chest. | |

In Young Guns II, Chavez gets wounded at some point during the fight with Sheriff Garrett and his deputies, but we're not really aware of the wound until he starts acting hurt when they reach safety. Later still, Billy finally catches up to them and Chavez shows him what turns out to be a pretty horrifying stomach wound. Shortly thereafter Chavez limps out and goes off to die by himself. | |

In The End of the World, just to tug our strings, the Doctor finds his companion Jasmine unconscious, starts to freak out, then she wakes up... and he notices her stab wound. And all he can do is cradle her as she dies, muttering empty promises. | |

In Inception, after the shootout/car chase in the first level, it's revealed that the only character who didn't escape unscathed was Saito. | |
