Which deaths in the Naruto and Naruto: Shippuden anime are the most beautifully portrayed?
It doesn't matter whether the death lasted/was real or not (i.e. Gaara came back to life, but his death still counts).
I'd have to go back and watch all of them to sort them properly, but I'd like to see what others think.

Here's an example list:
1) Death of Jiraiya
2) Death of Minato and Kushina (listed together since they died simultaneously)
3) Death of Itachi
4) Death of Asuma
5) Death of Kakashi
6) Death of Nagato
7) Death of Hiruzen
8) Death of Gaara
9) "Death" of Obito (when he was young)
10) Death of Sasori

Who's your top ten?

Only 2 death I've cared about and that was orochimaru's and jiraiya but if I could pick one it would be oro's I felt his frustration when he lost to this uchiha duckling but so it goes..

Konan's death was beautiful, if unexpected and unfair...

Jiraiya and Itachi's were heart wrenching.

And Minato and Kushina's were the best deaths ever, since they got to say "Goodbye Naruto" for the first time then "Hello Naruto" after that for the first time.

Konan is one of the best, the way her ending comments finalized he pointless life was epic.

Sasori threw his life away when he saw through Chiyo's final attack with the puppets "Mother" and "Father." He chose to die... for reasons unknown. It was well portrayed, regardless of whether it was a good cause or not.

Death itself is not beautiful. However, I believe that pain, sorrow, anguish, anger, and similar negative feelings are, by far, the most beautiful to observe. Nothing brings out such beautiful negative emotions quite like death.

1. Minato and Kushina (sacrificed their life just for their son - how sweet)
2. Jiraiya (such a legendary death this was, a sad death too; love seeing J-man giving it his all to write the code on Pa's back despite his bad shape)
3. Hiruzen (old man defeated Edo Hashirama & Tobirama and stopped Oro from totally destroying Konoha - what a boss)
4. Itachi (just a very sad death, especially after we discovered the truth about him)
5. Konan (did everything she can to defeat Obito; she came very close; Obito only survived because of Izanagi)

Good list with good reasons.
