Line 15:
* In ''[[Gurren Lagann]]'' using this trope as a mantra is why {{spoiler|Simon is happy with the series ending despite the heart-rendingly painful price he had to pay to save the universe. It perfectly shows how strong and heroic Simon has become.}} It's also extremely Japanese.
* [[Fate/stay night|Shirou Emiya's]] father, [[Anti-Hero|Kiritsugu]], possessed this principle and we get to see it in action in the prequel, ''[[Fate/Zero]]''. The contradiction in this ideal is also exposed {{spoiler|by the corrupted Grail}} when he gets shown an illusion where he has to save either the many or the few until he has killed 498 people for his two most beloved people.
* Discussed in ''[[Weathering with You]]''. As the weather gets worse than ever, Keisuke wonders aloud if {{spoiler|letting Hina be sacrificed is a worthwhile price to pay in exchange for millions getting normal weather back.}} One sign of how bad things have gotten is that Natsumi, who normally calls him out on his foolishness, doesn't say anything this time.
