* ''[[Mai-HiME]]''
** Whenever someone dies as a result of the HiME battles, the victim's heart stops, then their body's color fades, finally ending with slow dissolution into green sparks. {{spoiler|Haruka, because she's a [[Badass Normal]], simply refuses to "just die", preferring to get in a parting shot at Shizuru after [[What the Hell, Hero?|calling her out]] on her "disgusting behavior".}}
** In the [[Elseworld]] sequel ''[[Mai-Otome]]'', the same thing happens to any Otome/Master or Slave/Master relationship. ''Mai-Otome'''s problem is that it was porting over yet another familiar element from ''Mai-
* The Zoanoids in ''[[Guyver]]'' (anime & manga) are engineered to dissolve after dying, in order to leave no evidence of their existence.
* {{spoiler|Carrossea}}'s body in ''[[Madlax]]'' presumably disappears off-screen as it is never shown after the episode when he dies. That is probably because he was [[Dead All Along]].
Line 145:
* In ''[[Ōkami|Okami]]'' and ''[[Ōkamiden|Okamiden]]'', your enemies turn into flowers when you kill them. Instead of spurting blood, they will literally shoot pure flowers from their veins. Issun explains this in the first game as "When a demon is exorcised, the gods power can return, and nature thrives." This doesn't explain how the flowers the Demons leave behind disappear too.
* Since ''[[Shadow of the Colossus]]'' only has 16 enemies anyway, and they're too spread out to risk piling up, the corpses of killed Colossi remain throughout the whole game, and you can even have flashback-styled fights with ones you've already killed. The small creatures, however, such as lizards, disappear after you kill them.
* Both played straight and averted in ''[[Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots]]''. When killed, the elite FROG soldiers immediately dissolve into dust. However, when a normal soldier is killed, his body remains and must be disposed of to keep other soldiers from discovering it.
* Spaceship wrecks in ''[[Eve Online]]'' last for about two hours before vanishing.
* ''[[Baldur's Gate|Baldurs Gate]]'' averts this trope. Everything you kill lies there dead for the rest of the game, unless you killed it in some way that doesn't leave a body (e.g. vaporizing zombies with your enchanted mace).
