Pietà Plagiarism/Western Animation

Examples of Pietà Plagiarism in Western Animation include:

  • Avatar: The Last Airbender: This scene from the second season finale is one example that doesn't follow a Heroic Sacrifice, but a poorly timed mistake.
  • Ben 10: Alien Force actually has a shot like this in "What Little Girls Are Made Of", with Kevin holding Ben after he is knocked down in a (brief) conflict with a woman who turns out to be his grandmother. The scene is not dramatic and Ben isn't even unconsious, but he stays in Kevin's arms like that for a good five seconds.
  • Superjail: When the Littlest Cancer Patient dies, one of the prisoners holds her like this.
  • Transformers Animated, Endgame Part 2: Jazz carries Prowl's body after the third Lugnut Supreme blows up.
  • Spoofed in the Dexter's Laboratory accompanying short, The Justice Friends, in which Major Glory holds Valhallen in his arms after Valhallen injures himself in an attempt to get a bee out of their apartment. When Valhallen states that he is fine, Major Glory casually tosses him aside.
  • In Lilo and Stitch 2, where Stitch has died, Lilo holds him in this fashion. It's okay though, he gets better.
  • The end of the Looney Tunes cartoon "What's Opera, Doc?"
  • The Simpsons: The famous "Death of Superman" comic is parodied with Sad Sack.
