Why do fictional deaths hurt?

We cry because these fictional characters can touch our hearts. Maybe their stories resonate with our own experiences or emotions, and their deaths feel like a loss.

Fictional deaths are crucial for character development. When a character we care about dies, it can make other characters grow. In 'The Book Thief', Rudy's death makes Liesel realize the harshness of war and the value of friendship. Deaths can also be plot - turning points. In 'Gone Girl', Amy's faked death completely changes the direction of the story.

They can have a big impact. It might make us sad or even question our own feelings about loss and mortality.

Also, in 'The Lord of the Rings', Boromir's death is impactful as he redeems himself in the end.

When fictional animals get hurt, it often evokes various emotions in us. Some might be concerned about their fate, while others might view it as part of the story's plot development. It really varies from person to person.

Using flashbacks can also create emotional deaths. Say a character like Mina is about to die. The writer can then show flashbacks of her happy times with her friends at U.A. High School. These memories of their training sessions, school festivals, and inside jokes make her death more heart - wrenching as it shows all that she will be leaving behind.
