Samurai Sentai Shinkenger/Tear Jerker


 * in Act 25, revealed in a dream Mako sees while both are in an Ayakashi's dreamworld; not only will it tear at your heart, to see is a really, really powerful moment.
 * Kotoha in Act 20. Luckily, this is a prelude to some great moments in camaraderie.
 * Kotoha again, in the 'butler' episode - on a date with a Lonely Rich Kid, our heroes realise that a parasitic Ayakashi is somehow feeding off of his feelings for her. What does she do? Start playing the Gold Digger in front of him and cut off the parasite's sustenance. Break his heart, to save his life. Worst of all, it broke her heart to do that as well.
 * Mako's childhood as revealed in Act 34.
 * The moment between Ryunosuke and his best friend in Kabuki in Act 35. The scene is utterly devoid of speech except for one line his friend said at the end; which is exactly what provided the intended impact.
 * Genta at the shrine in Act 43, on his knees begging Juzo to have some humanity. Juzo's reaction makes it all the more heartrending.
 * The entirety of Acts 45-47 is one big Tear Jerker after another.
 * The ending of the series.
 * Also the end of the Final Live Tour show. Just try not choking up a little bit during Tori Matsuzaka's speech. Only he and Hiroki Aiba are able to hold back tears of their own.
