8	# ComicBook.FinalCrisis: A tie-in one-shot, ''Final Crisis: Requiem'', which elaborates more on the Martian Manhunter's death.
9	# Creator.RobertAHeinlein: The short story "Requiem" is about D.D. Harriman's attempt to fulfill his dream of landing on the Moon. He succeeds, but dies soon after landing.
10	# Film.RequiemForAHeavyweight: Appropriate for a heavyweight boxer at the end of his career, which has been a sad failure.
11	# VideoGame.MedalOfHonorVanguard: The third and final mission of Operation Neptune is called 'Requiem', [[spoiler:it is also the mission where Sergeant Magnusson is killed]].
12	# VisualNovel.HigurashiWhenTheyCry: [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s-kADZYnBp4 Requiem for the Disaster]] is exactly that, with the BigBad rejoicing during the whole song for a full dollop of MoodDissonance.
13	# {{Cantata}}: Music/KurtWeill's [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tQZUEOG14vQ "The Berlin Requiem"]] is a morbid, secular cantata about [[AMillionIsAStatistic faceless]] war casualties and victims of violent crimes. Appropiate for a piece [[TitleRequiem titled Requiem]]. The lyrics come from Creator/BertoltBrecht's poems.
14	# DefiantToTheEnd.ComicBooks: The ''ComicBook/FinalCrisis'' tie-in one-shot ''[[TitleRequiem Requiem]]'' reveals the ComicBook/MartianManhunter didn't go to his ComicBookDeath when he was stabbed in the back by Libra's flaming spear but reveals that J'onn put up a fight in his escape attempt. Even after it failed, when he knew he'd die, he told Libra, "[[SuperVillain Your kind]] will fail. Your kind will always fail."
15	# DyingMomentOfAwesome.ComicBooks: ''ComicBook/FinalCrisis: [[TitleRequiem Requiem]]'' reveals that the ComicBook/MartianManhunter didn't go to his ComicBookDeath merely being stabbed in the back, but went down fighting the Secret Society while getting his friends to write down his life story as he died.
16	# DoNotGoGentle: While ''ComicBook/FinalCrisis'' itself showed the ComicBook/MartianManhunter getting stabbed in the back by Libra's flaming spear, the ''[[TitleRequiem Requiem]]'' one-shot reveals that J'onn didn't go to his ComicBookDeath merely from this, but went down fighting the Secret Society, even managing to get some friends to tell his life story and [[DefiantToTheEnd tell Libra to his face that he'd never win]].

20	# ComicBook.Ultimatum: ''Ultimatum'' was followed by "Requiem" issues of X-Men, Spider-Man and Fantastic Four.
21	# Fanfic.PokemonMaster: The twelfth chapter is titled "Requiems".
22	# Music.{{Epica}}: The album and title track ''Requiem for the Indifferent''.
23	# VideoGame.DarkParables: TitleRequiem
24	# Webcomic.AOTNoRequiem: As described by the main page, a requiem is a song to honor the dead or to be played at a funeral, which is fitting considering ''AOTNR's'' story. [[red:► It doesn't elaborate further on how the work is sad and dark.]]
25	# Recap.StarTrekS3E19RequiemForMethuselah: The episode is called "Requiem for Methuselah", an [[LiteraryAllusionTitle allusion]] to the Biblical Methuselah, who was reported to have lived for 969 years (and who, according to Flint, was another of his past identities). [[red:► It doesn't elaborate further on how the work is sad and dark.]]
26	# Creator.EdmondHamilton: A story called "Requiem" about Earth's death being made into a TV show. [[red:► It doesn't elaborate further on how the work is sad and dark.]]

29	[[folder:Misuse (1/27)]]
30	# Characters.YuGiOhCardGameEToF: "Dark Requiem Xyz Dragon" which is named as such in reference to Yuto's grief for his lost comrades in the resistance. It also has stained glass wings in reference to church buildings. [[red:► It's misused with the name of a Yu-Gi-Oh! card instead of the title of a work. Also, it isn't a character trope.]]

43	# GrandFinale: ComicBook/UltimateMarvel
44	** In the initial plans, ''ComicBook/{{Ultimatum}}'' was going to be the grand finale of the Ultimate Marvel universe, followed by a reboot. The three ongoing series at the time, ''ComicBook/UltimateSpiderMan'', ''ComicBook/UltimateXMen'' and ''ComicBook/UltimateFantasticFour'' got their TitleRequiem issues. But then it was decided to continue the story from that point. However, it still counts has a grand finale for the phase 1 of the X-Men.
45	# {{Subtitle}}: Lastly, there are tropes that only look like they'd go here, like EpisodeZeroTheBeginning, for titles with the number 0 and beginning something, and TitleRequiem, for titles with the word "Requiem" in it, implying that event's going to occur. And to cap off the confusion, thanks to the history of the English language, there's "MediaNotes/ClosedCaptioning"-type "subtitles", and the tropes about that ''also'' don't go here. Tropes such as RealityHasNoSubtitles, FunWithSubtitles, and SpiceUpTheSubtitles.
46	# TheLastTitle: Compare TitleRequiem.
47	# TitleTropes: The title ends with "requiem", often implying a BittersweetEnding or DownerEnding.
