Got a request... sadly can only provide a description. It was something I had once seen in a pic, a bunch of screenshots with captions lumped together, and I thought I'd saved it for future reference. Apparently I didn't, so now I'm asking you guys in hopes someone knows what the heck this is.

It was from some animated show, almost positive it's an anime made in the 90s or late 80s. The scene involved is one where some barbarian-looking guy is kneeling before a villain character, your typical skeletor looking skullface if I recall right. The brute is saying he wants to take or give up his life over some failure on his part. The villain dismisses this, saying that it’s ridiculous that the life of a valuable underling should be wasted over a failure that isn't really their fault, and that he should calm down and go eat and rest until called for.

It was posted in some thread talking about atypical villains in fiction, so long ago I can't recall when or where. Probably got the details of the scene wrong too, but what can you do?

It just spouted up in my head out of nowhere and won't leave, and I want to know what it is from so I can hunt it down.
