Worth Living For is when a character realizes he has something worth living for, be it a loved one, a new-found opportunity, or whatever have you. Will usually inspire new-found determination that might verge on making them a One-Man Army. Hope Is Scary may hit first, but will be overcome. This trope can be the end of a Death Seeker's search in the non-lethal fashion, or simply someone deciding it's time to stop merely plodding through life and actually live. Not to be confused with Hesitant Sacrifice, where a character breaks down in the face of their own Heroic Sacrifice. When the Death Seeker character actually answers this with great confidence or profound sense of hope, expect a heartwarming moment and/or an awesome moment. Compare "No More Holding Back" Speech, may often lead to a Survival Mantra. Compare Living Is More than Surviving. |

In Watchmen, Doctor Manhattan spends most of the story in a state of detachment since his skewed perception of time makes him think that everything is set in stone no matter what he or anyone else does. The combination of a tachyon swarm disrupting his ability to see anything but the present and the revelation that Laurie is the Comedian's daughter trigger an epiphany. Doctor Manhattan ponders the multitude of coincidences that resulted in Laurie's existence, realizes that everyone alive is just as miraculous, and finally feels the urge to do, well, anything again. | |

Hayate Yagami in Magical Girl Lyrical Nanoha A's had resigned to the fact that she was going to die from an unknown illness at the age of nine since she didn't have any friends or family. It was only after the Wolkenritter entered her life that she found herself actually wanting to survive. She still wasn't afraid of dying per say, but she was afraid of leaving her new family all alone. In a tragic case of irony, the very people that gave her the will to live were (through no fault of their own) causing her to die faster. She eventually gets better, and decides to live for more than just "my family and friends would be sad if I died". | |

The pilot episode of Smiling Friends has the Smiling Friends help out a man named Desmond who's Driven to Suicide and spend most of the day trying to get him to find something worth living for, all while he has his gun pointed to his head the whole time, and failing. But just as they get the paperwork to write it off as a failure so he can go through with his suicide, Desmond walks into a Blibley (little pest-like creatures) infestation and shoots one dead, which he felt good about. He then lives a happy life as a Blibley exterminator, killing Blibleys with hardcore violence. | |

Naruto: After losing every member of his original team (including his sensei) in the span of a single year, Kakashi Hatake nearly lost the will to live. The only thing to kept him going was his promise to be his deceased best friend Obito's eyes into the future. Even then, Living Is More than Surviving came into play — for several years, he immersed himself into the ANBU Black Ops division and the only reason he had anything resembling a social life was because of the persistence of his eventual adulthood best friend, Might Guy. Eventually, even the Third Hokage became concerned and kicked him out of ANBU so he could become a somewhat functioning individual again, which didn't happen until Team 7 came along. And even that was debatable, seeing as Kakashi's idea of "functioning individual" was reading porn in public, being chronically late due to staring at the memorial stone for three hours everyday, and turning himself into an imitation of an adult version of his dead teammate. It wasn't until after Obito died again that Kakashi was finally able to move past everything and live his own life. | |

Cain's arc in Tin Man. He was dead-set on killing Zero to avenge his family, then dying. But then his former boss appeals to his honorable streak and forces him to promise that he'll guard DG the lost princess of Oz "at any cost." Cain is still Lawful Good enough to not turn down the Mystic Man's Last Request. Between this and learning his family survived, he's got enough Heroic Willpower to fend off a bullet and hypothermia. | |

In Claymore, when Teresa is sentenced to be executed by her fellow Claymores for breaking the rule against killing humans in order to save the orphaned girl Claire, she refuses to submit because in Claire she has found something worth living for. In the Anime Gecko Ending Claire reaches a similar point when Raki's pleas bring her back from the verge of becoming an Awakened Being, and she decides to keep on living for his sake. Instead in the later chapters of the Manga something similar to this happens. When Clare finally confronts Priscilla in the Western Lands of Lautrec a psychological block prevents her from awakening even though she's actively trying to do so in order to be strong enough to defeat her impossibly powerful adversary, it is later revealed that after going through many adventures with her companions she has lost the determination to give her life to avenge Teresa and she would rather live with her Claymore friends. Clare's new reason for living made her weak, but ultimately also strong enough to allow Teresa to awaken within herself and finally defeat Priscilla. |

Kouji tells her it hurt a lot when his grandfather got murdered by Dr. Hell, and he wants nobody else to go through that. And if Dr. Hell conquers the world, that is exactly what will happen to millions of people, who will lose their families and will be enslaved.

The difference is that instead of being a Death Seeker, Snake has focused entirely on survival rather than on enjoying life. Then played touchingly straight at the end of Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots, where Snake knows his time is drawing near, but is now content to see it out peacefully in retirement. He even quits smoking, saying to Otacon "those things will kill ya." |

Ascendance of a Bookworm: Myne, a modern-day Bookworm reborn as a sickly poor girl in a world where books are extremely expensive luxury items, sets her mind on making a book herself. On the path to that pupose, she learns how to write from a colleague of her father's named Otto who's a former merchant. Later, Myne's friend Lutz turns out to want to become a merchant and asks Myne to introduce him to Otto. Some time after she promises to do so, Myne's mother uses the wood slates she had prepared to make a book as firewood and it becomes clear that this is just going to happen again if she makes new wood slates. Myne's reaction to the incident is to get so depressed that she's willing to let the strange disease she's affected with kill her, until she remembers that she promised to introduce Lutz and Otto to each other, alongside the fact that Lutz is unlikely to meet someone from the merchant trade otherwise. The realization makes her want to live at least long enough to keep that promise. | |

However, he is finding that Humans Are the Real Monsters and they are just as bad as demons. He is feeling his resolve to fight is wavering when he remembers he has something worth to fight for: Miki. He rushes towards her home only to see the place burning down. A mob had chopped Miki and her whole family up in pieces and had set their home on fire. Grief-stricken, he thought he had nothing left to protect... but he would keep fighting if only to stick it to Satan. | |

Near the end of Mass Effect 3, Shepard can admit to Javik that his/her friendships with their crew are the only thing keeping them going anymore, possibly with Javik noting Shepard's lover in particular. Given that Shepard has become something of a Death Seeker at that point, those relationships may be the only thing that kept Shepard holding on in the only ending that doesn't involve Shepard's body disintegrating. | |

Mass Effect: In Mass Effect 2, Thane Krios if female Shepard decides to romance him. Which is difficult, since his Death Seeker status was due to terminal illness... Throughout the series, it's been theorized that a lot of the vicious infighting and turmoil among the krogan is due to them not having any hope for the future, thanks to the genophage: without any hope for the next generation, there's no incentive for them to work together or... do anything but fight, drink, and make money, really. In Mass Effect 3, Wrex demands a cure for the genophage in exchange for krogan help with the war effort, hoping that it will re-inspire the krogan species. Near the end of Mass Effect 3, Shepard can admit to Javik that his/her friendships with their crew are the only thing keeping them going anymore, possibly with Javik noting Shepard's lover in particular. Given that Shepard has become something of a Death Seeker at that point, those relationships may be the only thing that kept Shepard holding on in the only ending that doesn't involve Shepard's body disintegrating. |

The Transformers (IDW): A villainous example shows up in The Transformers: More than Meets the Eye. Overlord still hasn't recovered from his Villainous Breakdown in The Transformers: Last Stand of the Wreckers. The moment he learns that Megatron is alive, he regains his fighting spirit. Megatron in Season 2. After the events of Dark Cybertron he surrenders and pleads guilty of all charges at the start of his trial. Starscream delivers a scathing testimony that he believes will be the last nail in his former boss's coffin, but it actually stirs Megatron, who resolves to live on, if only out of spite. His relationship with Rewind is the one reason Chromedome lived long enough to make it onto the ship in the first place: they literally met at an assisted suicide clinic, and while Rewind had other motivations for being there, Chromedome did not. |

One Piece: Nico Robin was on the verge of giving up on her life, and Luffy and the Straw Hat pirates were the light at the end of the tunnel. Her time with the crew was the happiest she had ever been — and she cared for them so much that she willingly turned herself in in order to save their lives from the Buster Call, a large scale navy attack that would surely kill them as thoroughly as it did her home island. The Straw Hats come to rescue her from being executed, and refuse to abandon her just because she had the entire world as her enemy. Just to prove their point, they declared war on the entire world for her sake. It was only then that Robin realized that she had finally found her place. When Luffy nearly passed the Despair Event Horizon over the death of Ace, he remembered that he still had his crew. It was only because of them and the fact that Ace would have wanted him to move on that Luffy bothers continuing to live anymore. Ace had tons of angst over his bloodline, to the point that the question he spent his entire life searching the answer for... was whether he or not he deserved to be born. Living only stopped being so painful when Sabo, Luffy, and eventually, the Whitebeard Pirates, came into his life, having finally found the answer to that one question. All of it only serves to make his death more tragic. Trafalgar Law had lost his friends and family to the World Government and a disease that would kill him before he even reached adulthood. Thus, he believed that all he had to live for was to destroy everything in sight, as retribution against a world that cruelly took away all he held dear and persecuted him — until Corazon showed him kindness and compassion, and eventually gave up his own life so Law could live. Thus, Law had something else to live for: killing Donquixote Doflamingo, Corazon's murderer. Thirteen years later, after Doflamingo is finally defeated, Law finds closure after speaking with Corazon's father-figure Sengoku, who tells him that Corazon saved him not because of some fabled inherited will, but out of love, and that if Law truly wants to honor that sacrifice, he should live as Corazon would want him to: free. |

My Vow To My Liege has a beautiful mutual example of this in Fuchai and Wu Zixu. For all their constant fighting, they both understand what it's like to have their old lives destroyed, to be left alone in the world, so embittered and consumed by vengeance that they're not sure they'll have anything left when their duty is done. The key to their happy ending is deciding that all the agony they've been through is bearable if it brought them to each other, and that the other is proof that they have more left in the world than just revenge. | |

At the climax she tries a suicide run against Scar (a Cylon ace), only to be snapped out of it at the last minute when she realizes she can lure the fighter out so Kat can get a shot on it. She remarks later to Helo that she could've made the kill but it would've meant her own death, and suddenly that actually mattered to her. | |

In Little Busters!, this is arguably the whole point of the game: that is, showing Riki and Rin that even if their friends all die, they can still pick themselves up and have a reason to keep on living. It's most obvious in Riki's arc, where he realises after the other Little Busters died that it was his parents' death originally that closed his heart up, but that because of the efforts of his friends and everything he and Rin had done together over the game he could now accept the bad things that had happened and understand that having been born itself was a wonderful enough reason to keep living. | |

In the X/1999 anime, Kamui falls catatonic after Kotori's death, but Subaru manages to convince him that his life is still worth living, if only to save Kamui's best-friend-turned-evil (and Kotori's brother) Fuuma. Much later in the series, Kakyo and Subaru's ghostly sister do this for Subaru himself (who falls catatonic after killing Seishirou), just in time for him to save Kamui again. In the manga Subaru lost all will to live when Seishirou died (not that he had any to begin with) but when he inherits Seishirou's eye to replace the one he lost and with it his role as the Sakurazukamori he decides to keep on living as a way to keep what's left of Seishirou "alive". |

As several characters in Touhou are explicitly or not-so-explicitly immortal, some Fan Fic writers explore the reason they keep pushing forward despite the obvious existential angst. This trope is commonly brought into the story for Mokou and Eirin, with Keine and Kaguya as their respective reason to live. Note that Keine isn't immortal despite having a very long lifespan; it takes Mokou serious courage to forge a bond with her. | |

However, this causes problems when he's on a Conveyor Belt o' Doom towards a raging inferno and is concerned that this might actually kill him. It's more fortunate for Igor and Brian that he wanted to live; otherwise, he might have just elected to go through with it. | |

In God's World, the protagonists try to convince The Creator that the world he created is worth living for. They might have a bit of an agenda, considering how they themselves are from said world, but can you blame them? | |

Babylon 5: In "Shadow Dancing", Stephen Franklin — having been stabbed, and after being berated by a hallucination of himself giving him a potent "The Reason You Suck" Speech which turns into a sort of Rousing Speech — realizes that he wants to live, and is willing to fight to survive, even if it means making all of the same mistakes all over again. After Sheridan's death at Z'Ha'Dum, he is challenged by Lorien to find something worth living for, rather than merely finding something worth dying for. For Sheridan, it turns out that the one thing in his life worth living for is Delenn.

Climax of Noir has Mireille holding onto Kirika via one arm over a Lava Pit. Kirika is pretty much content to die; especially since as a Tyke Bomb she had killed Mireille's parents; Mireille; crying; begs her to live. Kirika looks up; sees that Mireille is the one person who gives a damn about her; cries as well and lets Mireille pull her up. | |
