Top 10 Saddest Animated Disney Character Backstories

[@baileyjohnson5933]

I really feel like Héctor should be on this list. All he wanted was to go home to his wife and daughter. He gets killed by his best friend, the guitar his wife gave him was stolen, his songs were stolen, he spent 96 years trying to cross the bridge just so he could go home to his daughter, his wife didn't know the truth so she resented him, and he was nearly forgotten and nearly died a second time.

[@IndriidaeNT]

Nick Wilde’s in Zootopia (2016) and Dory’s in Finding Dory (2016) are indeed the saddest same for Marlin’s in Finding Nemo (2003); You should make one for Universal Pictures animated characters' sad backstories next. I also hope that Garfield (2024) has a tear jerker opening explaining how Garfield’s mother died when he was a kitten and him and his dad’s gluttony are just their emotional eating over her death. I also hope that Sing 3 will have a tear jerker opening focusing on how Claudia Crystal Porsha Crystal’s mother and Jimmy’s wife died when Porsha was young and the reason why Jimmy became a villain to begin with and what caused Porsha and Johnny’s passions for music and becoming musicians and how Johnny’s mother and Big Daddy’s wife died when he was four and tear jerker scenes focusing on how Nick Wilde’s father and Fru Fru’s mother Mrs. Big also died in the opening to Zootopia 2 with Nick’s mother and Fru Fru’s father raising them on their own.

[@IndriidaeNT]

And Porsha’s drama queen attitude and overprotectiveness towards her friends and her relationship with them was caused by the death of her mom and living with a cruel father for twenty years before she met and joined the Moon Theater Family in Sing 2.

[@IndriidaeNT]

Imagine a tragic backstory for Suki Lane in Sing 3 where she used to have a greyhound husband and seven year old saluki dog children but they were all actually killed by Jimmy after they accidentally “embarrassed” him and it was what caused Suki to become so heartbroken, cranky, bitter and haughty and cynical and pessimistic related to how Clay Calloway was after the death of his wife Ruby before being set right by Ash and why she hated Jimmy so much and became determined to overprotect Buster and his friends from him at all cost before Buster Moon and Porsha Crystal, Rosita and Johnny helped her overcome all those flaws in Sing 2 and she finally had the courage alongside Porsha to finally stand up to and have Jimmy arrested and incarnated for all his crimes and Suki joined the Moon Theater Family alongside Porsha Crystal, Nooshy, Clay Calloway and Darius and Suki and Buster possibly formed a romantic relationship so Suki could get married and have koala and saluki dog puppy kids and give having a spouse and kids a second chance related to Manny from Ice Age (2002), Marlin from Finding Nemo (2003), Shrek from Shrek (2001), Nick Wilde and Branch from Trolls (2016) and Zooptoia (2016).

[@sarahmargaret6498]

Yo where the heck is Héctor from Coco? I have never felt so sorry for a Disney character in my life. He was betrayed by his friend who stole his songs and murdered him when he was only 21. Then, because he was never able to return home, his wife grew bitter and angry at him, believing that he had abandoned her and their daughter, Coco. As a result, she banished the one thing Héctor was known for; his songs, thereby completely erasing his legacy from the Rivera family history. Meanwhile, in the Land of the Dead, Héctor became a lonely, broken, down on his luck skeleton who was rejected by Imelda, his wife, after she arrived, and was unable to reconnect with her. He is the laughingstock of other musicians who mock him for his cause of death, not knowing that he was actually murdered. He’s forced to use trickery and conman tactics just to get basic things he needs. He’s forced to deal with the fact that his best friend used his songs without ever giving him credit and became wildly famous. Because his living family has never put up his photo, Héctor is unable to cross the bridge so see his daughter, Coco, whom he loves so much and has been trying so hard just to reunite with her. And to top it all off, he’s on the verge of being forgotten with no means of revealing the truth about himself and gaining his redemption before he dies for good. And that’s all before the actual events of the movie!

Then, he was murdered by his best friend, Ernesto de la Cruz(without him realizing that Hèctor has a family that cares for him). Lastly, he is being forgotten by his own family, especially his daughter, Coco.

I think Cauhoon “sorry if I misspelled,” from Wreck it Ralph should have been on this list. She is programmed with a backstory that pulls our heart strings. Her husband dies on her wedding day, because she didn’t do a perimeter check. Her husband was eaten by a sci-bug, and had to shoot it. Also with the creepiest the theories about the sci bugs mutation, add on the fact it made her an insecure wife at first when Felix said “dynamite gal.” And then you have one of the most disturbing and sad backstories in the Disney franchise.

[@theenergetichopecat7006]

I totally have compassion for Dory because after she had lost her family and suffers from short term memory loss it does make me sad.

[@sleepylionking1103]

Tbh Dory and Hector have the saddest backstories. They both make me cry over and over again.

I've never sat down and watched zootopia before, but it really hits me in two ways especially with Nick's backstory. First of all not only is he presented as a predator which is discriminated against because of a bias that everyone else has, which related to racism, but it also really speaks words for how guys are treated as well. The part where he says if anybody's ever going to see predators as only untrustworthy and shifty, why be anything otherwise? That's a lot of mindset that a lot of guys have. They get treated like garbage simply for being guys so they figure why am I going to try to be what they want me to be if I'm only going to be treated like shit for it regardless? I think I'm going to watch that movie because it really shows two sides of two different stories, with the same twisted moral

I feel like Maui should've been on the list. I mean, his parents straight up abandoned him and apparently THREW HIM INTO THE OCEAN!

[@HoshikoYui]

Wait, I agree with Quasi, but what about Elsa, Anna, Beast and Héctor!?

I think that a backstory that should have AT LEAST been mentioned was Peter Pan. When he was taken away to Neverland as an infant, he came back later to find a new baby laying with his mother in her bed and he felt like he had been betrayed, replaced, and forgotten so he decided to stay in Neverland forever. May not deserve a place on the list but it at least needed to be mentioned.
