Friendship matter

Yea.. friendship matter to the protagonist. No matter what the platform is, anime, manga, movie, video games or whatever it is. We often saw when one of the protagonist died the event will become somekind of disaster where sobbing heart breaking scene will arise and everything went gloomy. Everyone will cry with the loss and something like 'i won't let your sacrifice in vain..' or 'i'll revenge your death!!' will follow.

That's totally okay. But isn't that somekind of unfair to the antagonists? Most of the times.. when they died, they will just died like that, like a falling leaves in autumn, nothing importance of their death. Isn't they have friends too? Isn't that they have someone who will cry by their death? Isn't that the other antagonists will get the same gloomy hype and revenge spirit like the protagonist? Isn't that the other antagonists become more motivated by their death? Just because they are antagonist it doesn't mean they don't have friends right? Just because they are evil it doesn't mean they don't have friends right?

Only one time i remember that friendship matter for the antagonists side, that is when Ubogin killed by Kurapika and Nobunaga actually cried because of that.

Of course i know that anime, manga, movies, video games are made from the protagonist perspective so it's just natural to ignore the antagonists feelings or their perspective. I understand that, i just want to point this out and add MAF weird threads haha..
 
i agree but what if they have evil friends anymore who wouldn't care much?.
it could happen too and those friends aren't good friends and normal rules don't apply
 
i think i got what you are trying to say.
but you think if you keep on doing bad things and everyone is targeting you and cursing you, will they stand by your side at all times? even friends kill each other

If in the protagonist side friends not kill each other then it's the same way in the antagonists side. No matter which side it is, what makes people band together and make connection is the same

don't you think sometimes even the antagonists band together too?
like evil pirate ships in one piece. they are evil and they still protect each other
 
but don't you think antagonists side, no one is left to cry?
usually protagonists wipe out all the evil people
 
they are trying to protect people who are still alive.
don't you think if many protagonists died at once, then people would battle first and mourn later?

they are not different from protagonists in every regard

What about in the situation that only one person died? Not many series have that many antagonists died on initial clash

do you have any situations in your mind?
i don't remember any anime where just one antagonist died and others retreated. don't you think in many anime, usually some people who adore the antagonists seek out the revenge and end up dead?
