Fathers can be a terribly bothersome bunch. If you're the hero of an epic tale, half the time they turn out to be your worst enemy. If you're not such a hero, then maybe your father found his own way of pissing you off. Maybe he's set you up to marry the guy you hate, or he plans to hand over his title and fortune to his favorite general rather than you, his eldest son. Even if the title and fortune are intended for you, they're still not yours until the old fart is dead. Maybe your father genetically engineered you to be a Super-Soldier or to power his super weapon and doesn't understand that you are so much more. Maybe you didn't even know it was him and he just got in your way. Maybe it was prophesied and You Can't Fight Fate. Maybe he beats you. Or your mom. Maybe all of these. In any case, your old man made a big mistake when he didn't off the offspring because his days are numbered. Daddy's going down. Patricide, the act of killing one's father, is one of the most serious crimes throughout history (it being one of the other things Oedipus is famous for). Such a taboo is therefore bound to be found in media. Often there is a degree of My God, What Have I Done? after the deed, reflecting exactly how horrible the crime is considered. On the other hand, if you're not so very heroic, offing your dad may simply be the next big step in your long and promising political career. It could get you the woman of your dreams. And, let's face it, when you are the hero and your father is still alive, unless he's about to get kidnapped or murdered by the bad guy, then he probably is a horrible villain who deserves to die. The killing of a parent is certainly very affecting and tells us a great deal about any character who would do it (and equally as much about characters who refuse to do it). When you're looking for some way of characterizing a hero as dark or causing him to grieve heavily, this is always a good trope. What could be considered odd, however, is how often patricide is portrayed in fiction as opposed to matricide. This is probably related to Most Writers Are Male. Note that historically, the word Patricide was used as both a descriptive and personal noun. The act of killing one's father is patricide but the person who kills his father can also be called a Patricide. Subtrope to Self-Made Orphan and Murder in the Family. Spear Counterpart to Matricide. Compare Archnemesis Dad, The Evil Prince. Contrast You Killed My Father (someone else kills the character's father), Offing the Offspring (the child is killed), and Pater Familicide (the father kills the entire family). The more violent examples of Calling the Old Man Out may well involve this. May well be the life's goal of an Antagonistic Offspring and ultimate act of Betrayal by Offspring. This is a Death Trope, so beware of spoilers. |

In Devil May Cry 5, Nero learns what everyone had long suspected — that he's Vergil's son (and Dante's nephew). Both Dante and Lady tell him to stay out of the game's climactic battle so he won't have his father's blood on his hands. But the sudden realization that he has family awakens Nero's demonic strength and he intervenes to stop the fight so he won't lose either of them. Just before kicking the ever-loving shit out of Vergil himself because he still has a few issues with him to work through. | |

Mercenaries from Hong Kong: Madam He Ying, the only child of a wealthy executive and employer of the titular mercenaries, claims that her father was assassinated by a business rival, who then escaped to South East Asia, and sends the mercenary team to the hostile jungles of Cambodia to hunt down her father's killer. But the truth is later revealed by the captured assassin, Wen, that Ying actually arranged for her father's assassination herself, and the mission is to eliminate any witnesses to her wrongdoings. Things naturally goes From Bad to Worse for the mercenaries once Ying's true colours are exposed. | |

Angel: Angel when he became the evil Vampire Angelus ate his father and mother as well his little sister for good measure. You’d think a few centuries later and “blessed� with a soul he’d be really cut up about it... nope. In "Sense and Sensitivity" to he actually joked to a evil psychiatrist that his parents tasted like chicken when asked about them. Since Angel was a miserable "Well Done, Son" Guy when he was human, it’s not too surprising. In "Lineage", Wesley seemly shoots his father Roger when he makes a move towards Fred. Doubly subverted though as not only does Wesley vomit his lunch up immediately afterwards but it turns out it was actually a Cyborg pretending to be his father. Wesley is also further horrified when Angel and Spike try to comfort him, by sharing the times they killed their parents. |

In JoJo's Bizarre Adventure: Phantom Blood, Dio murdered his father Dario for being abusive. The fact that he blamed Dario for the death of his mother, the only person Dio fully cared for, didn't help. And if you count him killing George Joestar, his adoptive father, he committed patricide twice. | |

Taken: Played with in "Acid Tests". Although Eric Crawford did not directly kill his father Owen, he brought on the stroke that killed him by telling him that Sam, the favored son, was dead. In revenge for Owen treating him like dirt for his entire life, Eric taunted him as he died, which may have exacerbated his death. In "God's Equation", Eric's daughter Mary believes that her father has grown weak and is a liability to the UFO project because he has come to regret all of the terrible things that he has done over the course of the last 30 years. When Eric intervenes and attempts to stop her from killing Charlie, Lisa and everyone who stood in the way of capturing Allie, Mary has one of the project's agents shoot Eric in the back. As was the case with his father Owen, the last thing that Eric sees is his vengeful child's face. |

Derfel in The Warlord Chronicles kills his father Aelle, albeit at Aelle's request; he's been mortally wounded in battle, and having Derfel kill him quickly and cleanly in a duel gives him an Honorable Warrior's Death, as well as a death at the hands of a famed enemy warlord. It just happens to be that said warlord is his own long lost biological son. Derfel, telling the story many years later, is clearly disturbed by the memory. | |

Since The Simpsons has father-son antagonism as a major theme, it's not surprising this has been played with a number of times. In "Tennis the Menace", Lisa explains the concept of an Oedipus Complex to Homer after he becomes anxious when Marge replaces him with Bart as her doubles partner. Homer then dreams of Bart killing him and mounting his head on the wall. The Dream Intro for "Papa Don't Leech" has Homer killing Abe in a parody of a similar scene from The Sopranos. In "Treehouse of Horror XXVII", the "MoeFinger" segment makes Bart a secret agent whose nemesis turns out to be Homer, believed to have died in the line of duty. Bart tells him that he wants to make up and dispatches him with a Deadly Hug. In "Flanders' Ladder", Bart's Adventures in Comaland take an upsetting turn when he commits an Accidental Murder of Homer. He apologizes to Homer's ghost, who's a good sport about it. "I, Carumbus" tells the story of Ancient Roman-slave-turned-senator Obeseus the Wide and his upstart son Bartigula (zero points for guessing which characters they resemble), who end up combining this and Offing the Offspring in an impressive Mutual Kill. |

Wolfenstein II: The New Colossus includes a rather heroic example. BJ's abusive father, Rip Blazkowicz, is a racist, bigoted, sadistic, and overall repulsive asshole of a human being who manages the impressive feat of being one of the vilest characters in a game with actual Nazis in it, and who only married BJ's mother, a kind Jewish girl named Zofia, for her business connections. Rip's introduction during a flashback sees him getting downright furious at a young BJ for being friends with a black girl named Billie, knocking his wife out cold for trying to protect their son from his wrath and choking his son almost to unconsciousness, before forcing him to shoot the family dog (named Bessie) to teach him to be "strong"; Rip will just shoot the dog himself if the player doesn't. When the two reunite for the first time in years, the latter reveals that he sent Zofia to a concentration camp and tries to kill him. BJ finally bites back and makes the old bastard pay for everything he's done, cutting off Rip's left arm and burying a hatchet in his chest. | |

In Octopath Traveler II, this happens early in Hikari's route. Mugen kills his and Hikari's father, King Jigo, at the climax of Hikari's first chapter. This is because Jigo wanted Hikari to be king instead of Mugen, as Jigo realized that Hikari would be a far better ruler due to caring more about Ku's people. Unfortunately, Mugen heavily subscribes to Ku's former Might Makes Right mentality, so he offs Jigo and takes the throne for himself. | |

Odin Sphere: When Gallon, former king of Titania, used the Darkova spell to fend off an invasion from Valentine, the spell twisted and destroyed his mind, causing him to eventually turn upon his own kingdom. Edmund, Gallon's son, was forced to use the Psypher blade Almacia to kill Gallon, smashing out all of his teeth in the process. Seeing the blade again (given to Cornelius by a then-unknown Gallon in Netherworld Endelphia) causes a now much older Edmund to have a panic attack. King Valentine outright calls it patricide when revealing this to Cornelius and takes great pleasure in doing so. Ingway, prince of Valentine, seeks to do this to his father, Demon Lord Odin of Ragnanival, out of combination of hatred for his father seemingly caring nothing for him and self-loathing trauma for saving said father by destroying the country of Valentine. He goes to great lengths to learn the Darkova spell just to ensure he's strong enough to pull it off. However, his transformation aborts and he's beaten down by a combination of Odin and Velvet. Ironically, he indirectly causes Odin's death when he transforms again during Armageddon in an attempted Heroic Sacrifice, which riles up King Gallon in the Netherworld into a killing frenzy and he leads the army of the dead onto the land of the living, which destroy Ragnanival in the process. |

Fire Emblem: Twice in Fire Emblem: Genealogy of the Holy War: Manfroy goaded Chagall into killing his father to seize the throne of Augustria, while Andrey killed his father, Lord Ring, in order to seize control of Jungby and the Beige Ritter. Even Andrey's fellow conspirators were disgusted. In regards to Fire Emblem: The Binding Blade... Guess how Prince Zephiel got the throne of Bern? To be fair, this also doubles as The Dog Bites Back: his father and victim, King Desmond, had tried to assassinate him repeatedly (with one attempt being a major plot in the prequel). Possible to pull off in Fire Emblem: Awakening if the player has the Avatar deal the killing blow on Validar. Even if this isn't the case, the fact that the Avatar is on the army opposing Validar certainly doesn't hurt. In Fire Emblem Fates the Greater-Scope Villain Anankos is the true father of ]the Avatar, and the ultimate goal is to kill him... but it can only be done on the Revelation route. In Fire Emblem Gaiden and its remake Echoes: Shadows of Valentia, Emperor Rudolf's mix of Zero-Approval Gambit and Thanatos Gambit included him being slain by La Résistance... led by his estranged son Alm, who has no idea that Rudolf is his dad until Rudolf himself tells him in his last words. Naturally, the poor guy does not take this well. Fire Emblem: Three Houses: You can invoke this in the Crimson Flower route by having Felix kill his estranged father, Rodrigue. On the same route, it's possible for Annette to kill her equally-estranged father, Gilbert — though, unlike Felix, she did want to reconnect with him, and both express regret it came to this point. As part of Edelgard's purge of the corrupt nobles, Hubert willingly assassinated his father, Marquis Vestra. Hubert also has a personal reason for this: Marquis Vestra was a collaborator in the Insurrection of the Seven, which led to Edelgard and her now-dead siblings getting captured and experimented on by those who slither in the dark. Prior to the events of the game, Jeritza, then still going by the name Emile, completely snapped and killed his father after hearing the latter state that he would take Emile's half-sister Mercedes as a wife (due to the two's mother being too old to bear any more Crest-bearing children). Fire Emblem Warriors: Three Hopes: On the Azure Gleam route, you can have Bernadetta kill her abusive father Gregoire in the finale. Not that he didn't have it coming. The Scarlet Blaze route has a non-invoked example, where Ferdinand personally executes his father, Ludwig, for his crimes after he escaped imprisonment and attempted to stir up a rebellion against Edelgard with support from those who slither in the dark. This one hits the killer particularly hard, since despite everything their father has done they still cared about him (and in fairness, that love is reciprocated), but Ferdinand is well-aware letting Ludwig live at this point simply can't be allowed due to how much of a danger he is. Ludwig for his part accepts this and simply resigns himself to his end at Ferdinand's spear rather than try and hurt his son. |

Sabretooth did this very intentionally. His father was an abusive parent who kept him changed in the cellar where he sat in his own waste and was fed like a dog when his father wasn't ripping out his teeth with pliers and verbally abusing him by noting how much or a freak & monster he was. All this made his father the perfect target when he finally got loose. | |

Romance of the Three Kingdoms: One of the reasons Lu Bu is so infamous is that he betrayed and killed not only his birth father, but two adoptive fathers after him as well (Dong Zhuo being the last). To the Ancient Chinese, who followed Confucian values, killing one's father was one of the worst crimes a person could possibly commit, and Lu Bu had committed it three times. One of his most disparaging nicknames, "The Bastard of Three Fathers", is a direct reference to this. | |

Balthazar tells him he has to taint the vessel with a spell that requires him to commit an abominable act: spilling the blood of one's father. When Sam points out that his father (John Winchester) is already dead, Balthazar clarifies: you need the blood of the father, but the father needn't be blood (Bobby Singer). During Season 7, backstory reveals that Bobby Singer killed his father when he was a child, under sympathetic circumstances. |

Final Fantasy XVI has a rather cruel example of accidental patricide. Prince Dion of the Holy Empire of Sanbreque instigates a coup to take the country from his Wicked Stepmother Anabella and his half-brother reigning Emperor Olivier, all in an attempt to save his father, former Emperor Sylvestre, from their corruptive influence. However, Ultima, through Olivier as his puppet, goads Dion into throwing his lance at his young half-brother, only for Sylvestre to take the attack instead. Ultima then uses Dion's horror and grief over his accidental patricide to turn the coup into chaos, causing Dion to transform into a berserk Bahamut and subsequently rampage across the whole of Twinside. Despite not having had much control over events, Dion can only blame himself for his father's death, and seeks to atone for his crimes against both him and their citizens. | |

Darth Vader killing Emperor Palpatine at the end of Return of the Jedi is possibly a variant of this trope with the implication in Revenge of the Sith that Palpatine helped create Anakin Skywalker, who would eventually become Vader. Palpatine worked with Plagueis to create an Artifical Human and young Anakin was born to Shmi Skywalker via virgin birth, so Darth Sidious is more his creator than his father. | |

As the series goes on, it is revealed piece by piece that her father Richard Troy raped her and abused her for years, and that he intended to make her into a prostitute and sell her to child molesters. He caught her trying to feed herself and forced himself on her to punish her. Her arm got broken, she went crazy, and she managed to grab the knife she was using on the food. She killed him with the knife. | |

Die Another Day: Gustav Graves/Colonel Moon shoots dead his own father after the man dreads what his son has become and tries to stop his plan that will plunge the world into war. It's revealed that years before the events of Spectre, Franz Oberhauser a.k.a. Ernst Stavro Blofeld killed his father out of resentment and jealousy for favoring Bond over him. |

Wolverine does this by accident, as a boy seeing his supposed father John Howlett murdered by the groundskeeper Thomas Logan; James went crazy and popping his claws for the first time and slew Thomas in revenge. But it turned out he was illegitimate son of John and Thomas Logan was his biological father, so poor Wolverine went from two fathers to zero in a short space of time. | |

In Devil May Cry 3: Dante's Awakening, Lady kills her father Arkham, completely justified since he not only sacrificed her mother but used Lady's blood to open the Demon World. Lady bursts into tears after she does the deed, and it's clear in later games that killing him has left a scar on her soul. In Devil May Cry 5, Nero learns what everyone had long suspected — that he's Vergil's son (and Dante's nephew). Both Dante and Lady tell him to stay out of the game's climactic battle so he won't have his father's blood on his hands. But the sudden realization that he has family awakens Nero's demonic strength and he intervenes to stop the fight so he won't lose either of them. Just before kicking the ever-loving shit out of Vergil himself because he still has a few issues with him to work through. |

Jafar of Once Upon a Time in Wonderland is a Royal Bastard who was rejected by his father, the former Sultan of Lower Agrabah, who tried to drown him but he survived, grew up to be an Evil Sorcerer, and took his father prisoner; his primary motivation for changing the Laws of Magic is to force the old Sultan to love him. When, in the last episode, he does manage to change the Laws and win his father's love, he instantly kills him, stating that he wanted his father to know how it felt to be murdered by someone he loved. | |

Marvel Cinematic Universe: Thor: Double subverted with Loki who appears to be plotting his adoptive father's murder, but it turns out to be a part of a (completely misguided) ploy to impress his adoptive father by apparently saving his life. But the same ploy involves killing Laufey — whom he has just discovered to be his biological father and who left an infant Loki to die. Subverted at the end of Thor: The Dark World, when Loki disposes of Odin and impersonates him to take the throne. Many speculated that this trope was in play, but since the event in question occurred offscreen, it was never confirmed. Four years later, Thor: Ragnarok finally revealed that Loki actually didn't kill him, just wiped his memory and banished him to Earth. Played straight in Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2 with Peter Quill/Star-Lord as he destroys his father Ego the living planet, since Ego had killed Peter's mother by putting a brain tumour in her head, was about to absorb every planet in the universe, and crushed Peter's Walkman given to him by his mother. |

Kazuya wanted to kill his father Heihachi for throwing him off a cliff as a boy and for killing his mother Kazumi (though it should be noted that was self-defense since Kazumi was trying to kill Heihachi first), so after many years of training Kazuya attempted to kill Heihachi many times but failed usually thanks to outside interference and Heihachi's own insane power. Not until Tekken 7 does Kazuya gets his revenge killing Heihachi in a fistfight and throwing his father's body into a volcano. While he did become more villainous than Heihachi it's hard to deny that Kazuya's actions aren't somewhat justified. You can even see a degree of pity on Kazuya’s face after he toasts Heihachi, which is surprising considering the amount of shit Heihachi pulled. | |

Berserk: The Kushan Emperor Ganishka is revealed to have killed his father (after having killed his little brother, favored by their mother). He ends up poisoned by his own son years later, and would have died had he not triggered his Behelit, transforming him into an Apostle. Guts kills his own father (figure) Gambino at a young age, when Gambino got drunk one night and went into his tent to try to murder him. He blamed Guts for the death of his lover Shisu (Guts' foster mother) from the plague. There was considerably less angst after that, especially since Gambino admitted that he was the one who sold Guts to his rapist Donovan for three silver coins. |

You know how Ursa from Avatar: The Last Airbender was thought to have killed Azulon to protect Zuko? Well, in The Search, it's revealed that she just created the poison to do so. It was actually Ozai who killed his own father to get the throne. Subverted with Zuko and his father Ozai during the Day of the Black Sun. After Ozai tried to kill him with lightning Zuko caught the lightning and had the Fire Lord at his mercy. However, he chose to spare him instead. On the other hand after Zuko joins Team Avatar, he is the most fervent advocate for killing Ozai because Ozai intends to burn down the Earth Kingdom. |

Kamen Rider's done this a few times as well, though they're very odd examples. Kamen Rider Decade has Tsukasa have Wataru defeat a Fangire that took over his throne (so it's also technical regicide), but unbeknownst to Wataru (Tsukasa found out moments before the Fangire died), said Fangire was Wataru's dad. Kamen Rider Drive has Gou kill his own father. However, unlike most other examples, though, said father was the Big Bad and was plotting on getting away before Gou stopped him. In fact, this ends up being a sort of reverse Moral Event Horizon for Gou, as after this, he's back to his old self again. Kamen Rider Ghost has Adel murder his own father twice. The first time he destroyed his Soul Jar, the second time he destroyed his actual body. |

Beatrice Frega kills her father in Tyrion Cuthbert: Attorney of the Arcane. She always saw him as an "unstoppable, tyrannical force" who sought every excuse to belittle her, control her, and ensure that she would never inherit House Frega despite being a very powerful mage and his firstborn, to the point she left home five years prior to the game because she couldn't take it anymore. He also wasn't very nice towards her younger sisters. It's implied she didn't really plan to kill him when she returned (instead she just wanted to blackmail him into surrendering the entire estate to her so she could fulfill the terms of a Deal with the Devil she had made), but was "forced" to improvise a murder plot when the blackmail backfired. Of note is that she thinks of herself as an accomplice to the crime and not really responsible for it, when in actuality she indirectly ordered her familiar to kill him. He couldn't have done it without her explicit permission to harm him. | |

Gundam: In the original Mobile Suit Gundam Evil Prince Gihren Zabi murders his father, Sovereign Degwin Sodo Zabi in order to graduate from Dragon-in-Chief to Big Bad. For Gihren this is not a particularly shocking move. Neither is the fact that he uses a Wave-Motion Gun to do it. And then his sister Kycilia confronts him and shoots him, invoking the trope as her reason to do so; Gihren would've been executed for patricide anyway, according to her. At the end of Episode 17 of the second season of Mobile Suit Gundam 00, Andrei Smirnov killed his own father, Sergei, for being involved with the Federation Army's coup d'état in the Break Pillar Incident. An accidental version occurs in the final episode of the first cour of Mobile Suit Gundam: The Witch from Mercury. Guel Jeturk, who has been caught up in the Dawn of Fold's attack on Plant Quetta, hijacks one of their mobile suits in order to join the battle and save Suletta. However, he is immediately attacked by his father Vim (who has looking for him ever since he ran off) in his Ace Custom with neither father nor son knowing who is in the other mobile suit as Vim is unable to hear Guel's desperate pleading that he's not the enemy, forcing him to defend himself. Only after Guel impales his father's mobile suit is he able to establish contact and for both men to learn the Awful Truth of whom they have been fighting. Even though Guel tries desperately to rescue his father in spite of what happened, Vim's mobile suit explodes taking him with it. Naturally, Guel ends up breaking down crying over what he has just done, and it is the catalyst for the Heroic BSoD he is in at the start of the second cour. |

In Legion of Super Heroes (2006), Timber Wolf brutally murders his father in front of a live audience. However, it turns out to be a clone; his real father concocted this elaborate scheme to get his son to work with him again involving nanites implanted in his son's brain. It's ultimately averted at the end when Timber Wolf refuses to kill his father. | |

Wings of Fire has an interesting variation of this trope. When Tsunami is forced to fight in Queen Scarlet's Gladiator Games, she is randomly paired up against Gill, a prisoner who had attempted to revolt. Tsunami was forced to kill Gill because he had been tortured into insanity as a result of his little rebellion, and was so unstable by that point he'd been drinking his own blood. It's later revealed that Gill was not only king of the SeaWings, but also Tsunami's father. Naturally, she is extremely disturbed and horrified by the whole situation. | |

In The Tommyknockers, one of the pieces of information Becka picks up is that an offscreen character killed his father via Hunting "Accident". The killer thought it was a straight-up Inheritance Murder, but narration mentions that he's very thoroughly repressed memories of sexual abuse by his father. | |

An accidental example happens in My Hero Academia with Eri, who erased her father from existence when her Quirk first awakened. While this wasn't entirely her fault since she was very young and had no control over her ability, Eri's mother was so distraught by this that she handed Eri over to the Shie Hassaikai and disowned her. Tenko Shimura Aka Tomura Shigaraki was a very intentional example however. After he accidentally kills his other family members as a result of his Quirk's awakening, he tearfully reaches out to his father for help and the man attacks him out of anger and fear and Tenko, having suffered abuse from the man for years of his life, completely snaps and lunges at his father and kills him in a bloody heap. Rather disturbingly, he was about the same age as the aforementioned Eri. |

Thelma: Thelma was asleep when her father was killed in the lake. During the burgeoning of her powers but also because of repression, much of her psychokinesis happens when she's dreaming. Her father was killed as his hands caught fire and it spread throughout his body. He would have burned to death but he resolved this by drowning himself in the lake instead. Upon realizing this as she woke up, Thelma was completely horrified then and remorseful over her father's death. | |

The Elder Scrolls: Shows up in the lore on the Masque of Clavicus Vile in The Elder Scrolls II: Daggerfall. A disfigured noblewoman named Avalea used to masque to improve her reputation leading her to marry a powerful baron (the masque doesn't improve her looks instead making her more charming and influential). Of course, the Daedric Prince takes away his masque after a year and a day and a pregnant Avalea is banished from the baron's realm. Unusually for this trope, the child is a daughter who murders the baron when she grows up. Downplayed in The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim, wherein Serana helps the player to obtain Auriel's Bow, a divine weapon that you'll need to use later during the bossfight with her father, Lord Harkon. She helps you attack during said bossfight as well, though rarely will she deal the final blow unless you make an active effort to let her do so. |

A Song of Ice and Fire: Tyrion Lannister kills his father Tywin Lannister after years of psychological abuse and discovering that he had deceived him into thinking his wife and first love Tysha had been a prostitute. A kinslayer is cursed by the gods in Westerosi society, but killing one's sire is worse than killing a brother. Lord Eon Hunter, a man of over 80, died suddenly and is suspected of being killed by his eldest son, the new Lord Gilwood Hunter. According to Littlefinger, Eon's third son Harlan Hunter was responsible. According to the Free Folk's tales, the King-Beyond-the-Wall Bael the Bard once seduced and impregnated the daughter of Lord Brandon Stark. Their son was then legitimized and eventually became the new Lord Stark. When Bael and this Lord Stark finally met on the battlefield, Bael couldn't bring himself to fight his own son and didn't even try to defend himself. Lord Stark, unaware that Bael was his father, did not hesitate to cut him down and took his head as a trophy. |

Tekken: Kazuya wanted to kill his father Heihachi for throwing him off a cliff as a boy and for killing his mother Kazumi (though it should be noted that was self-defense since Kazumi was trying to kill Heihachi first), so after many years of training Kazuya attempted to kill Heihachi many times but failed usually thanks to outside interference and Heihachi's own insane power. Not until Tekken 7 does Kazuya gets his revenge killing Heihachi in a fistfight and throwing his father's body into a volcano. While he did become more villainous than Heihachi it's hard to deny that Kazuya's actions aren't somewhat justified. You can even see a degree of pity on Kazuya’s face after he toasts Heihachi, which is surprising considering the amount of shit Heihachi pulled. In his Tekken 5 ending, Kazuya murders his grandfather Jinpachi which is even more screwed up and tragic as unlike Heihachi, Jinpachi did show love to Kazuya as shown in flashbacks, though that didn't stop Kazuya sadistically killing Jinpachi with a grin. Jin likewise wants to kill Kazuya, his father, but was convinced not to do so by his mother Jun. In Tekken 7 he's right back on the mission: kill Kazuya. The Mishimas are one Big, Screwed-Up Family. |

Code Geass: A pre-teen Suzaku Kururugi fell into despair and killed his father, who happened to be Japan's First Minister, in order to make the Japanese troops surrender and stop the bloodbath caused with their (losing) war against Britannia. The trauma was so big that he became a Death Seeker. Lelouch Lamperouge has "kill Father" at the top of his to-do list for much of the series, partly out of revenge for some pretty severe Parental Abandonment, partly because he's the head of the evil empire that Lelouch despises. He eventually succeeds near the end of the series, and decides to kill his mother too while he's at it. |

In Death Note: The Last Name Light attempts to do this to his father Soichiro in order to get the Death Note Soichiro had in his possession by writing his name in the other Death Note. It turns out the Death Note Light already had was a fake, and everything was set up by the thought-to-be-deceased L to prove once and for all Light was Kira. He then tries to get Ryuk to murder Soichiro and the other task force members for him after getting caught. The look of horror and heartbreak on Soichiro's face is heart-wrenching. Probably the one time being Spared by the Adaptation really was the worse option, as in the manga he died before he could find out Light was Kira. Notably, even Light's Love Martyr Misa was horrified he was willing to murder his own father. | |

God of War: Like in several Greek myths examples, Zeus hears a prophecy that his son Kratos would try to kill him and usurp his throne. This prompts Zeus to kill Kratos and send him to Hades, in turn prompting Kratos to escape and kill Zeus. This becomes a very sore subject for him in the Norse era, where whenever the subject of patricide comes up Kratos' reaction is to awkwardly remain quiet. In fact, one sidequest involves a reaver who killed his own father so he can lead the crew himself whom should be noted also killed his own father himself. Of course by the time you find the killer, he is already dead, killed by his own crew for his crimes. | |

Fire Emblem Warriors: Three Hopes: On the Azure Gleam route, you can have Bernadetta kill her abusive father Gregoire in the finale. Not that he didn't have it coming. The Scarlet Blaze route has a non-invoked example, where Ferdinand personally executes his father, Ludwig, for his crimes after he escaped imprisonment and attempted to stir up a rebellion against Edelgard with support from those who slither in the dark. This one hits the killer particularly hard, since despite everything their father has done they still cared about him (and in fairness, that love is reciprocated), but Ferdinand is well-aware letting Ludwig live at this point simply can't be allowed due to how much of a danger he is. Ludwig for his part accepts this and simply resigns himself to his end at Ferdinand's spear rather than try and hurt his son. |

A tragic example happens in one case in Detective School Q. The Ichinose brothers murdered a medium who claims to have a message from their late mother who died in a plane crash, who the brothers suspect is a fake whose trying to scam them and little sister Kaori into giving her the family's vast fortune they inherit after their mother's death. However, the protagonists revealed the medium is actually their mother who actually missed her doomed flight and went into hiding to protect her children. The ironic part was the mother disguised herself as medium to tell her children to apologize to them and hope they have happier life without her. Naturally, the Awful Truth horrifies everyone with brothers trying to commit suicide. | |

The Heroes of Olympus: The final book reveals that, years ago, Reyna killed her father in self-defense. Broken by his experiences as an Iraq War veteran, he slowly turned into a mania upon returning home, which made him unable to tell what's real or not. Eventually, he regressed to the point of trying to kill Reyna and her sister, Hylla, therefore Reyna had no choice but to kill him. The Romans consider patricide to be the worst kind of crime, so when Bryce Lawrence, a fellow Roman, learns about this, he attempts to condemn Reyna to capital punishment. | |

Many characters in the story are very curious as to why; Rebecca Saint James goes to extreme lengths to find out.

One of the major elements in the cosmogony of Warhammer 40,000 is that the Primarchs, genetically engineered Super-Soldier sons of the God-Emperor, were stolen and later corrupted by Chaos. His favored son Horus fell the hardest, and eventually led the rebellion against him, until they faced off in a duel. Though he (Horus) died in the attempt, the Emperor was essentially turned into a barely more than a corpse, hooked up to an enormous machine that allows his body to continue living while his spirit continues to guide humanity (literally, in the case of the Navigators). | |

Unbeknownst to them, the group in question was simply returning home after their victory. Siegfried engages in battle with the leader of this group and beheads him; holding up the head in the moonlight reveals the identity of his prey: his own beloved father, Frederick, whom he had been searching for. The realization pretty much shatters his mind, forcing Siegfried to go into denial, believing that someone else killed his father. He decides to search for Soul Edge in order to defeat this murderer, and the rest of the tale is history. | |

On Once Upon a Time, lots of villains are patricides. Regina kills her father, Henry. Sadly, she really did love him, which was why she killed him. She needed the heart of the one she loved most for the curse she wanted in order to fulfill her quest for vengeance. Killian Jones (Captain Hook) kills his father, Brennan. In this case, patricide is a test of allegiance. Before accepting him as an ally, Regina orders Killian to kill his father. Brennan had sold Killian and his brother Liam into servitude and fled. At first, Killian wants him to escape, but when he discovers that Brennan has had another son he named Liam, just like his late brother, he kills him out of rage. Rumplestilskin kills his father, Malcom/Peter Pan twice. First he kills him to stop him from wreaking havoc in Storybrooke; later, in the Underworld, he destroys him with water from the River of Lost Souls. Let's just say that between the neglect, abandonment, blatant statements that his father hated him, and threats on the lives of Rumple's wife and son, Rumplestiltskin was glad to be rid of him. |

Fire Emblem: Three Houses: You can invoke this in the Crimson Flower route by having Felix kill his estranged father, Rodrigue. On the same route, it's possible for Annette to kill her equally-estranged father, Gilbert — though, unlike Felix, she did want to reconnect with him, and both express regret it came to this point. As part of Edelgard's purge of the corrupt nobles, Hubert willingly assassinated his father, Marquis Vestra. Hubert also has a personal reason for this: Marquis Vestra was a collaborator in the Insurrection of the Seven, which led to Edelgard and her now-dead siblings getting captured and experimented on by those who slither in the dark. Prior to the events of the game, Jeritza, then still going by the name Emile, completely snapped and killed his father after hearing the latter state that he would take Emile's half-sister Mercedes as a wife (due to the two's mother being too old to bear any more Crest-bearing children). |

In the original Mobile Suit Gundam Evil Prince Gihren Zabi murders his father, Sovereign Degwin Sodo Zabi in order to graduate from Dragon-in-Chief to Big Bad. For Gihren this is not a particularly shocking move. Neither is the fact that he uses a Wave-Motion Gun to do it. And then his sister Kycilia confronts him and shoots him, invoking the trope as her reason to do so; Gihren would've been executed for patricide anyway, according to her. | |

Shows up in the lore on the Masque of Clavicus Vile in The Elder Scrolls II: Daggerfall. A disfigured noblewoman named Avalea used to masque to improve her reputation leading her to marry a powerful baron (the masque doesn't improve her looks instead making her more charming and influential). Of course, the Daedric Prince takes away his masque after a year and a day and a pregnant Avalea is banished from the baron's realm. Unusually for this trope, the child is a daughter who murders the baron when she grows up. | |

In the Assassin's Creed III Haytham Kenway and his son Connor are on the opposite factions of the Templars and Assassins side, with Haytham being Archnemesis Dad, still both of them hope that they can form a bond and set aside their difference but alas Poor Communication Kills and Haytham tries to choke his son to death with the latter stabbing him in self-defense. Both of them feel pretty bad about this in the time they have left. | |

Horizon Zero Dawn: Avad, the 14th Sun-King of the Carja, earned his throne by personally killing his father, the 13th Sun-King Jiran. He did this because his father was The Caligula who had gone insane and was raiding every surrounding tribe for blood sacrifices; the vast majority of people, Carja and foreigners alike, consider this a tragic but just story. A good chunk of his own people, however, hated him for being a patricide and a kingslayer; they formed the "Carja in Shadow" and left the capital to live in exile. While the Shadow Carja leaders were mostly made up of those who worked with Jiran and were just using the patricide as an excuse to get out before they had to answer for their crimes, many of the common people were genuinely horrified by his actions. In the second game, Aloy can meet some peaceful Shadow Carja remnants who still refuse to be ruled by a patricide. In the Liberation miniseries, we see the overthrow of the Mad Sun-King. Avad didn't kill Jiran. In the end, he was too much of a Nice Guy and hesitated before killing his own father. His foreign bodyguard/maybe girlfriend Ersa struck the final blow, but they decided to give Avad the credit to ensure a smooth transition of power. | |

The Shadowhunter Chronicles: Centuries ago, Magnus Bane killed his mundane stepfather, who attempted to drown him upon learning that he is a warlock. Gabriel Lightwood has to kill his father, Benedict, after the latter succumbs to demon pox and turns into a demon. Julian Blackthorn is forced to kill his father, Andrew, to protect his brother Ty. By this point, Andrew has been turned into an Endarkened Shadowhunter, so killing him would be an act of mercy more than anything, but the experience still leaves Julian shell-shocked. The thousands of years old Unseelie King meets his end at the hands of his least favorite son, Kieran. |

Interview with the Vampire (2022): In the Season 1 finale, Louis de Pointe du Lac and Claudia attempt to murder their vampire father Lestat de Lioncourt — who has been psychologically and physically abusive towards them — by poisoning him with dead blood and cutting open his throat, but they don't succeed because Louis refuses to burn his lover's body despite Claudia demanding that they do so. A clip near the end of the episode shows that Lestat did survive, and Daniel Molloy deduces that he can eat the rats at the garbage dump. | |

The Assassin's Creed series has two very dark examples, featuring a villainous and heroic Big, Screwed-Up Family. Rodrigo Borgia the Big Bad of Assassin's Creed II decides that his Visionary Villain son is getting a bit much so he resolves to murder him with poisoned apples which Cesare imbibes only for his sister to warn him in time. Cesare then stuffs the rest of the apples down his father's throat. In the Assassin's Creed III Haytham Kenway and his son Connor are on the opposite factions of the Templars and Assassins side, with Haytham being Archnemesis Dad, still both of them hope that they can form a bond and set aside their difference but alas Poor Communication Kills and Haytham tries to choke his son to death with the latter stabbing him in self-defense.
