* ''Manga/OnePiece'': Kozuki Oden was fond of proclaiming "I am Kozuki Oden, and I was born to boil!", a pun on how "oden" is also his favorite food to make. Orochi ultimately sentences him to [[DeathByIrony death by]] [[StewedAlive boiling in oil]], but Oden survives for so long it becomes a public spectacle that salvages his destroyed reputation. When Orochi gives up on the oil and brings in a firing squad, Oden gets out "I am Kozuki Oden, and I was born--" [[KilledMidSentence before being shot in the head]]. Then the crowd shout in unison "... TO BOIL!", causing Oden [[GoOutWithASmile to smile as his body sinks into the oil]].

* ''VideoGame/MetalGear'': Throughout his appearances in the series, Revolver Ocelot lets his opponents know how impressed he is of them by saying "You're pretty good". At the end of the final battle with him in ''VideoGame/MetalGearSolid4'', Ocelot says this very thing to Snake before passing on.

* ''Fanfic/OversaturatedWorld'': {{Discussed|Trope}} by Timber, when talking about a CatchPhrase shared between his mom and sister.

* When Bugs Bunny dies in ''Film/SpaceJamANewLegacy'', his final words are "That's all folks," which is what the phrase the ''Looney Tunes'' would use at the end of all their cartoons.

* ''Machinima/FinalFantasyVIIMachinabridged'': Throughout the series, whenever Cloud apologizes to Aerith she responds by saying, "All is forgiven." At the Forgotten City, upon stopping himself from killing her and apologizing, Aerith starts to tell him all is forgiven [[KilledMidSentence just as Sephiroth impales her]].

* The most commonly uttered greeting of V.V. Argost, the main villain of ''WesternAnimation/TheSecretSaturdays'', is "greetings and ''[[GratuitousFrench bienvenue]]''." In the GrandFinale "War of the Cryptids", this phrase ends up being one included as part of Argost's last words before [[ItMakesSenseInContext he seemingly dies in an explosion of matter and anti-matter]].

* A variant in ''WesternAnimation/TheVentureBrothers'' At the end of "All This and Gargantua 2", Jonas Venture Junior [[ItMakesSenseInContext (Rusty's twin, whom he ate in the womb)]], says "Go Team Venture," to Rusty and Dean before he pilots a section of the station with a nuclear core undergoing a meltdown away from the rest of the ship. The phrase is used a lot in the show by a variety of characters (mostly the Venture family and members of the original Team Venture) and highlights JJ's situation where he's viewed as an outsider because he wasn't present until much later.

* ''WesternAnimation/ThePowerpuffGirls1998'': In "Twisted Sister", Bunny's last words end up being "Bunny do good!" which had been her catchphrase throughout the episode.

At the very end of the movie, Quicksilver speeds in front of Hawkeye, using his body as a shield between Ultron's turret gun and Hawkeye and a child. Quicksilver's last words are "I bet you didn't see that coming..."
