* ''[[Generator Rex]]'' has quite a few, and we aren't talking just [[Mecha Mooks]] or [[What Measure Is a Non-Human?|Evos]]. Most onscreen deaths are actually [[Faceless Mooks|Providence]] [[Redshirt Army|soldiers]] fighting alongside the main characters. You know things are tough when ''in the very first episode'' you see crashed dropships and the bodies of the Providence operatives that were sent to save Rex from [[Big Bad|Van Kleiss]]. |

** The show as a whole seems to be making a game of killing off said [[Red Shirt|Red Shirts]] in the most brutal ways possible in a kids cartoon.

* Happens a lot in ''[[Batman Beyond]]''. A really terrifying example is in the episode "Sneak Peek", where a tabloid reporter gains the ability to [[Intangible Man|go through walls]]. He finds out that Terry is Batman and Terry tries to convince him not to reveal his secret.

Terry tries to rescue him, but the reporter couldn't stay tangible for long and just keeps falling, presumably to the center of the earth. |
