“Once I’m dead, I won’t even be able to remember you. So I’ll win, No matter what. I’ll live, no matter what!” – Mikasa Ackerman
The prominent animator – Hiroki Tagaki died earlier in February this year. He animated popular shows like:
- Neon Genesis Evangelion.
- March Comes In Like A Lion.
- Ghost In A Shell.
I say all that to say this:death isn’t kind, and it’s a constant reminder of how limited our lives are.
The thought of that inspires me in a weird way, because it pushes me to do more with my life. Everyday, and to never waste precious time doing wasteful things that don’t add meaning to me or the things I care about.
These 16 anime quotes about death will make you think, and give you the inspiration to do the best you can!
1. Mary Macbeth Quotes
“Everyone dies eventually, whether they have power or not. That’s why you need to think about what you’ll accomplish while you’re alive.” – Mary Macbeth
When you’re in a coffin, everybody is equal to you. Until then, do the best you can to make something of the life you have.

4. L Lawliet Quotes
“There is no heaven or hell. No matter what you do while you’re alive, everybody goes to the same place once you die. Death is Equal.” – L Lawliet

No matter how cruel, wicked, criminal, kind or nice you are, everybody gets the same treatment once life comes to an end. Regardless of good or bad.
5. Makina Hoshimura Quotes
“My reason for being is simply to kill those who killed me. So don’t get the wrong idea. We’re not heroes or champions out for justice. Keep following me around and you’ll die.” – Makina Hoshimura

6. Sunako Quotes
“I think death is equally terrible for everyone. Young people, old people, the good, the bad; it’s always the same. It’s rather fair in its treatment. There’s no such thing as a terrible death, that’s why it’s frightening.” – Sunako
Back to my point earlier – whether you’re a good person or a bad person. Kind or evil. Nice or an asshole. Death is the same regardless.
So when you consider that, it makes sense to live life the way you want to live it. Instead of worrying about other people’s opinions of what you should and shouldn’t do.
7. Nine Quotes
“They were weak. That’s why they died. We were weak, too. That’s why we couldn’t save them.” – Nine
