Anime list ranks memorable villain deaths

A CBR feature ranks memorable deaths of villains in anime.

It says these endings can change a story and leave a lasting effect on viewers.

The examples in the available text come from Bleach, Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood and Death Note.

In Bleach, Mayuri Kurotsuchi uses a drug that makes Szayelaporro Granz experience time extremely slowly before he dies.

In Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood, Envy takes their own life after Edward Elric exposes the jealousy beneath their hatred of humans.

In Death Note, Near uncovers Light Yagami’s plan, and the Shinigami Ryuk writes Light’s name in his notebook as Light dies.

The feature presents these moments as different kinds of villain endings, from poetic justice to emotional breakdown.

It gives no next steps beyond its ranking.
