You Can Barely Stand: Difference between revisions

** And appropriately enough in the scene happening parallel to that one, we have Shirou. During the course of his fight he's broken his fingers, gotten covered in cuts, has various other broken appendages, and is all but dead due to being outmatched. Quite literally the only thing keeping him swinging is a full on [[Determinator]] mode.

*** [[Always Save the Girl|Shirou]] in HF too. [[Punctuated! For! Emphasis!|He. Will. Save. Sakura.]]

* ''[[Naruto]]'' has the battle between {{spoiler|Jiraiya and Pein. After it looked like he had won, Jiraiya was ambushed by the rest of Pein's [[Hive Mind|six paths]], [[Necromancer|including the ones he had just killed]]. Worn out by using his sage mode, Jiraiya has no chance in hell of defending himself and all six bodies impale him with their swords. [[Determinator|When he still gets back up]], one of the paths goes to finish him off and slits his throat, at this point he's dying so quickly he invokes the trope almost verbatim. He still doesn't want to die however, so he makes a ''[[Desperation Attack|Massive]]'' Rasengan and destroys the path that slit his throat so thoroughly that it has no chance of revival. The force of this knocks Jiraiya back into the water, where he succumbs to his wounds and [[Go Out with a Smile|dies smiling]] after reflecting on his life.}}
