name a darker kid's show deathhttps://youtu.be/VMO70D16dG4
>insert detailed gory /a/ deathKorra isn't even a "kid's" show.
>>150774895Dark Crystal Age of Resistance having Skektek the Scientist bash a slave's head in with a bit of metal or the amount of Kaiju mutilation in Sym Bionic Titan.
What about the armless waterbender that got fucking electrocuted not one minute before P'Li blew her own head off? She even screamed in agony.
>>150774895I'd say the actual suicide or the queen being slowly strangled to death were darker
>>150774919Nigga it aired on Nickelodeon
>>150774895Cinco's deathhttps://youtu.be/rWtazOoyieI?si=BvQII4VWxrxFawSp
>>150774895Adventure Time that one harpy siren thing that got turned into an apple and eaten by her own sisters.
Dudes get murked pretty hard in Dragon Princehttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TVzvtpb4u50

>>150775044KISS MY ARSE!!!
>>150774895I mean, even just in Avatar I would say Amon's murder-suicide is more grim.This one's pretty fucked up thoughhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X31ROvszfGU
>>150774895Hell I thought the Queen of the Earth Kingdom had a worse death. It was all on scene for the most part and didn't cut away as bad as that one did.
>>150774895I remember absolutely nothing about S2 and 3, but I will always remember the murder-suicide at the end of S1. I was floored. Pretty mature season of a cartoon in general, haters gonna hate.
>>150775258Oh I wanted to post that too but I forgot if the guy died. Its nightmare fuel.

That episode of Phantom 2040 where a kid had to euthanize his parents after they were kidnapped and had their brains ripped out (or something) to help power a killing machine.
>>150774895SPOILERS!
>>150775044I'm surprised those sites are still alive
>>150774895That time a guy got fucking gas chambered in Superman. I really don't buy that Superman would be cool with the death penalty by the way. No way Metropolis has that
literally any other episode of Animals of Farthing Wood
>>150775057This show was weirdly dark for such a stupid premise
>>150774895> person in a life or death fight dies nearly instantly in a blink-or-you'll-miss-it offscreen implied head explosion.> darkYou are like little baby. P'Li lived by the sword and died by the sword. Its nothing compared to, say, an entire concert hall full of innocent people being killed just slowly enough that they have time to know what is happening and beg for help simply for being in the wrong place at the wrong time.
>>150777101The Simpson's isn't a kid's show
>>150774895
>>150777140Stfu weebshitter
>>150777193They hated him because he spoke the truth.
>>150777236Go suk your own dick
>>150777140>no blood>vibrant colorsCouldn't you at least post Berserk?
>>150774895The way Gyrus Krinkle from SRMTHFG got offed lives in ny head to this day. Literally got his mind destroyed while connected to high end tech that he himself made.
>>150777193>>150775112>>150777247Mods are you sleeping with this faggot?
>>150777384Berserk isn't a kids show. If we remove the kids show label, obviously we can get some pretty fucking brutal deaths in anime. But even japanese kids shows don't shy away from civilian casualties and onscreen deaths.Point being, if the OP scene counts as 'dark' to you, its because your standards for deaths onscreen is so low that basically anything counts.
Hey Arnold! had fucked up deaths, especially halloween episodes. Most notable Headless Cabbie's and Ghost Bride fiancee'shttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7qKLHBwHIqI
>>150776945>I really don't buy that Superman would be cool with the death penalty by the waySuperman is LAWFUL good, and favors self-determination. He knows that societies need to be responsible for their own safety, and that this sometimes involves killing threats, whether militarily, or through a judicial system.>No way Metropolis has thatThe death penalty in the US is a state matter controlled by state law, apart from a small number of federal capital offenses. Municipalities don't have a say in it.
>>150774895Not a death, but the slow, torturous decline of Baxter from 03 turtles was leagues darker.
>>150776945>>150777774Also worth adding Superman looks at humanity much more from an outsiders perspective, unlike Batman he's not going to go crashing in to save a guilty soul getting the death plenty
>>150778000Forgot the pic
>>150778049
>>150774895I'll need you to define "darker" Cause that shit was everywhere in 80s and 90s cartoons. You had shit like Inhumanoids that had people die to the demon monsters and be used as parts in Frankenstein's Monsters creations. It wasn't until the late 00s that stuff got more tame across the board.
>>150775057Threat
>>150777619> But even japanese kids shows don't shy away from civilian casualties and onscreen deaths.DandaDan is in shonen jump, and one of its ghosts has one of the most emotionally devastating sequences I can think of. The death itself isn't especially brutal, but the panicked desperation and buildup to it really makes it hit you in the gut. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GqM6rXtKP8g
>>150774895Yeah, about that....
>>150778351
>>150778441
These aren't really darker than a head getting blown up.
>>150774895You can't see shit
>>150774895Captain Planet
>>150778067Say whatever you want about Baxter Stockman in that show, the man didn't let anything keep him down for long.
>>150774895Child's play, dear anon. Space Runaway Ideon is a kid show that surpasses that.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yQdabspcEg0
>>150774960>>150775025It was always a show for Tumblrites and you know it.
>>150778311Fucking ruined the show for me
>>150774930I wasnt even sure she died ngl.
>>150778067Honestly no idea how censors let it through, one time we got really lucky.
>>150774895I can think of a a few, like some deaths in The Animals from Farthing Woods or this cartoon for chinese kids that has a pretty gnarly death scene : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zfzp1E6pjL0
>>150780102Stfu
>>150777157Contrarian fag
>>150780102Nigga it aired on Nickelodeon
>>150777157Based
>>150774970Such a shame it happened to a QT like her.
Surprised nobody's posted Infinity Train clips yet.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iPCWwkTu-u0https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=em5O_hMMnu4
Murder. A group of crows is called a murder.
>>150775000Classic trope of betrayer getting fucked over but man, there was just no passion in that animation at all.
>>150775661Brutal, buuuuuuuut Blurr didn't actually die from this
>>150782546Oh yes the great highway crossing episode, where a shrike kills the friggin mouse babies and the hedgehogs panic and get roadkilled.Didn't traumatize me AT ALL.Let's see, what else do we have here:>the heroic savior figure, the deer, gets crushed by a tree.>some cubs of the fox get killed by the rival fox>rival fox literally gets assassinated by the adder>the adder kills some rats for killing her boyfriend>the newts are buried alive>one of the squirrels accidently gets killed for food by the hawk>one of the fox's cubs tragically drags himself back home after a hunter shoots his eye out and basically dies in the arms of his parents>I think the pheasants get shot>the beloved mole character dies offscreen because he didn't make it through winter.>his friend, the badger, gets friggin dementia, rambles about their old home, and diesAnd there's many more deaths I can't remember right now, I forgot if the male otter died... you know, for kids.
>>150774895>dark but I can still clearly see it
>>150789218Also the reaction is basically:"Oh fuck you killed my babies!" "Yep." Never mentioned again.
>>150777716Made me laugh that her gravestone had an obvious rhyme about her going to Hell, but the characters couldn't make out the last word.
>>150786844I feel like this scene belonged in a better and more haunting movie.
>>150774895Pick an episode and there is a darker desth.
>>150790060That's robots got some big boobs
