miscellaneous [loved trope] the hero pathetically begs the villain for their life

The examples are:

The Wicker Man: In the end, the protagonist begs for his life while being burned alive inside the titular object

Ibitsu: This manga is about an unknown supernatural entity that chooses people to force them to become its “older siblings,” obviously isolating them from their loved ones and killing anyone who gets in the way. When the protagonist is about to be killed by it, he gets down on his knees and begs for mercy.
