Don't remember the book... I think it's the one on that planet where they have to gravdrop into combat, while a team is infiltrating. Book 5 or 6, I think.
What I do remember is the damn feth-head who does it. Lijah Cuu...
So, like some others I cannot pick out a single saddest thing, but rather have a few...
"Try Again" Bragg and Colm Corbec. I shed tears for both. And Augun Soric. Damn, that last one might not have been part of "the old gang" but just the description of what had happened to him after Hark turned him in, what he was reduced to.
Wash's death. Damn that really hit me hard.
This one. Damn that was brutal on me.
Also, the episode "The Sting" had me in tears. Not excactly death, but...
Sniper Wolf. That entire thing just seemed so pointless. She didn¨t really seem like an advesarry at all in the end, more like she fought because that was all she knew how to do. A tragic life with a tragic ending.
When Satine dies, I flood my apartment.
When the father dies in the end, I start blinking away the first few tears. When we see the people at the funeral, everyone he has ever told stories about, all the love and the lives he was part of, I break down.
Maes Hughes was devastating to me. As was the Nina/Alexander thing.
Christopher Moltesante.
Edward Scissorhands(though not technically...), Mara Jade, Jean Grey, Aeris, Roxas, Zidane, boy at the end of American History X, Eddard Stark, Lisa in Silent Hill, etc.
I am quite emotional when it comes to films, series, games, comics, books... Any media really. Don't know why, since I don't get nearly as teared up about real life stuff.
Ovan from .hack//G.U. He was your teacher through the game and Haseo felt so much for him and he just up and died to save his sister!! That has to mean something.
Godwyn Fischig in the Eisenhorn books, of course John Marston and John Coffey, but another one that did it for me was the death of Fredo at the end of the second godfather.Not because i thought he would live but of how the scene was set up and the relationship he had with his nephew.
The race on the PLanet who's sun is going Nova in the Star Trek Next Generation Episode, "The Inner Light". The one where Picard plays the flute, it gets me every single time *sniff*
That, and Lockon Stratos from Gundam 00, the Haro coming back crying like a broken toy. *double sniff*
The one that had me crying for hours when I read it was this:
Skarlath from The Outcast of Redwall by Brian Jacques.
Granted I was in middle school at the time but I get a bit teary-eyed just thinking about it even now.
Edit: Come to think of it, when the picture book of The Lion King came out before the movie--what, in 1993 or so?--I remember having my dad trying for the longest time to stop me from crying about Mufasa. That seriously tore me up. I must have been 6 or 7.
Kamina from Gurren Lagann
Spike from Cowboy Bebop (even though it was part of the greatest ending of all time)
Boss from MGS3
But the first one that came to mind for me was Emma Sheen from Gundam Z, which really made me pretty depressed and angry. She was the 'normal' person hero of the series, no newtype powers to speak of and really nothing special as a pilot but she was still a strong character. The spectacle of the whole situation didn't help. An entire battleship is sacrificed trying to save her and then she still dies, in severe pain, in the main character's arms.
Pretty much the entirety of the Stark clan, Eddard Stark gets introduced and killed in the first book of the series, framed for treason and beheaded as his daughters watch, then about the third book Eddard's son, Rob Stark, gets his head taken off and Rob's pet wolf's head nailed onto the stump, at his uncle's wedding, also this is where Katelyn (rob's mother) also gets killed and these are just the MAIN CHARACTERS! the "good guys" the people you follow through the story, and over half of them get offed in horrible, mean ways... which is why this series is so goddamned good.
I like that the author's willing and able to kill off characters, but man, vicious...
My personal fictional death I still grieve is from the same series.
Sandor Clegane, alias The Hound. Although the death is never described as much, and still not 100% certain to me. Considering Martin's track record though...
