Line 10:
A quite literal interpretation of the trope existed in the Bulgarian army around the beginning of the 20th century as some common soldiers would keep a white shirt for last and put it on when defeat seemed imminent, in odd contrast to [[Bring My Red Jacket]].
 
Compare [[Snow Means Death]], which uses the color white to similar effect. See also [[Woman in White]], [[Man in White]], [[Blood -Splattered Wedding Dress]], and [[Bedsheet Ghost]]. Contrast [[Bring My Red Jacket]].
 
Since this is a [[Death Tropes|Death Trope]], expect spoilers.

* Mr. Blank from ''[[Sam and Fuzzy]]'' wears [[Highly -Visible Ninja|an all-white ninja tunic]], which tends to get blood-splattered [http://samandfuzzy.com/704 when he goes into combat] ([[One -Man Army|though not with]] ''[[One -Man Army|his]]'' [[One -Man Army|blood]]). {{spoiler|His death is remarkably bloodless if we ignore the part where he got his face and mask torn off by a killer robot -- he fell off the side of a building.}}
