9	!!!General
10	* In general, when there are giant monsters appearing in the city, there tend to be causalities. However, this series itself was filled with FridgeHorror, NightmareFuel, TearJerker in nearly every episodes by stating or showing this in a massive amount. Given that Creator/ChiakiKonaka's involvement as the show's writer, ''Tiga'' borders with seriousness and horror myths, some of which even takes cues from Literature/CthulhuMythos. This makes Ultraman Tiga a darker series that can leave soul-rending effects towards children compare to its successor, [[Series/UltramanDyna Ultraman Dyna]], which was more light-hearted.

16	* Kyrieloid is perhaps a living embodiment of this trope. And with many examples;
17	** He performs a DemonicPossession of a newscaster a la ''Exorcist'', blowing up buildings, possessing the corpse of a deceased man; all just to prove himself worthy of humanity's protector than Tiga. For his homicidal act in blowing up buildings, its fortunate that they were ConvenientlyEmptyBuildings. And no, that line is not on the English dub.
18	[[AC:Episode 5]]
19	* Sealizar started out appearing as a harmless monster corpse until it awakened when GUTS try to remove it. What kind of monster species it was probably got washed away by constant regeneration of its cells even after death.
20	** What makes it more disgusting that the monster's huge rotten fleshes spilled out from it's body after the hooks carved a scar and detached from it.
21	[[AC:Episode 8]]
22	* Episode 8 has the witch Giranbo emerge from her dimension to give out tainted candy to child that let's her brainwash anyone who eats it to come to her. Once she's done this, she eats their dreams until they're an emotionless EmptyShell and dumps them in her Dream Graveyard like discarded candy wrappers. She does this ''every year'' to entire ''towns'' worth of children, and has for as far back as GUTS has on record. Only two of her drained victims are restored by her deaths, meaning what's likely hundreds if not thousands of children suffered this fate at her hands and are either dead or trapped as emotionless husks in the Dream Graveyard for eternity.
23	[[AC:Episode 15]]
24	* What supposed to be a BreatherEpisode gets subverted for a member of GUTS, Tetsuo Shinjoh, who loses his brother-in-law to be because a monster called Gazort killed Takuma Aoki, Mayumi's (Tetsuo's little sister) boyfriend on the plane that he rode to Japan. It comes out of ''nowhere.''
25	[[AC:Episode 51]]
26	* Everything about Gatanothor, the final villain from Ultraman Tiga. Granted that he's a Lovecraftian monster.
27	** And then there's [[spoiler:Tiga's defeat and petrification]].
28	*** It only gets even worst when [[spoiler:where the different outcome of the petrified giant being shattered into rubble]] in ''Ultraman Fighting Evolution 3.\

33	* In R'lyeh island, the three Dark Giants suddenly awakened from being petrified after GUTS destroyed the seal, ''in a middle of the excavation.'' Cue Captain Iruma's OhCrap moment. Not to mention, she is the only surviving member of the excavation team left, struggling to survive while the rest were brutally killed by the monsters released by these giants.
34	* One of the Shibito Zoiger's last moments by declaring that darkness will rise with it's dying breath, with a humanoid face.
35	* Tiga Dark's EstablishingCharacterMoment in ''Odyssey'': crushing a little crying little girl. [[spoiler:Thankfully, it was just a vision.]]
