Kung Fu Panda 2/Tear Jerker


 * To make it more tear-jerking, this realization pulls Po out of his two-Act-long Heroic BSOD, and leads to him returning to finish Shen off!
 * Ditto combined with Fridge Horror as you realise Po's line from the first movie about him eating while he's sad. His mom left him in a Radish crate that was full, and when he got to Mr. Ping's restaurant it was empty. On the bright side, it also makes his other line in the first movie, "I'm not hungry" all the more epic.
 * Also a Crowning Moment of Heartwarming.
 * "Noodles..."
 * The Soothsayer sincerely telling Lord Shen that she hopes he finds happiness someday.
 * Boss Wolf's expressions as he struggles with the need to obey his master and the need protect his pack. It's worse when you take into consideration that he had been childhood friends with Lord Shen, and then he is.
 * The sight of all ten kung fu masters, the most powerful and noble warriors in the land, in the aftermath of the completely drained and utterly defeated, seemingly without a chance in the world...the shot of Shifu watching Po- either a surrogate son or a dear friend to him- makes this troper's heart break.
 * Makes it more sadder that for a long time
