It's not correct that Ace, Whitebeard, and Orochi are the only important One Piece characters killed in the present: while it depends on your definition of "important," other such characters include Pedro, Vergo, Monet, Absalom, Yasu, Kanjuro, Ashura Doji, Izo, Cobra, T-Bone, Mjosgard, and now potentially Vegapunk (and 2 Satellites), in addition to a larger host of more minor characters. Plus the Merry too, if you count that, and depending on how things shake out, also Kaido and Big Mom. In any case, it would be redundant to list all of those on the page.


** This trope is so prevalent in ''Manga/OnePiece'' that [[spoiler:when Ace ''did'' die, the chapter was titled "The Death of Portgas D. Ace" as if to convince fans "we're serious this time, guys."]] To date, [[spoiler:Ace, Whitebeard and Orochi]] are the only characters of any importance to have died in the present without immediately having the deaths retconned away.

* At the end of ''Manga/DemonSlayerKimetsuNoYaiba'''s Swordsmith Village Arc, [[ArcVillain Hantengu]] is about to kill a group of villagers as the sun rises, but Tanjiro can't give chase, since he has to shield his demon sister Nezuko from the sunlight or she'll burn up. Not wanting the villagers to die because of her, Nezuko kicks Tanjiro away, and he kills Hantengu while fully convinved that his sister is now dead. Thankfully, it turns out that Nezuko has developed the ability to survive in the sun, which is unique for a demon.
