What character death hit you hardest?

Narancia from Golden Wind.

Many other deaths have some kind of build up to them or foreshadowing. Not him. His death legit came out of nowhere with no warning. This may sound like bad writing, but really that’s how death works in real life. Sometimes it just happens, straight out of nowhere.

Gyro from Steel Ball Run too, though his did have a bit of build up to it.
