History TearJerker / DescendantsOfDarkness

* Hisoka's breakdown after he kills Tsubaki, a girl whom he had befriended, [[ICannotSelfTerminate to end her suffering]]. Usually a stoic teenage boy, this horrendous and heartbreaking act leaves him [[CryCute sobbing hysterically]] and wondering if he'll turn into a monster like Muraki. [[CooldownHug Tsuzuki hugs him]] and reassures him over and over again that he's not a monster.

* The scene featuring this phrase: ''If you don't have anything to live for... at least live for me!'' as Hisoka desperately tries to convince Tsuzuki to not commit suicide after muraki {{mind rape}}s him completely. Oh, ''Hisoka''. In the episode in question, it became apparent that the two YaoiGuys were getting a '''''happy ending'''''.

* Even if he's responsible for the aforementioned situation with Hisoka, one has to admit Nagare [[TraumaCongaLine has also had it pretty rough]]. His [[AbusiveParents father]] [[ParentalFavoritism preferred his brother to him]] and purposefully gave him the position of clan head to save (the ten years older) Iwao from being [[RapeAsDrama raped]] (painfully, involving [[NaughtyTentacles tentacles]], blood and screaming) by a god constantly. Said brother [[WouldHurtAChild murdered]] his ''newborn daughter'', and is implied to have murdered his [[TheLostLenore first wife]] as well. He tells Tatsumi and Watari he wasn't even given time to [[TheMourningAfter mourn]] them before being shoved into a second marriage - with his first wifes [[ReplacementGoldfish identical twin]]. The when he had a child with her, Hisoka was accused of being a demon, and a council demanded Nagare ''kill'' him. When he refused, his wife took into her own hands and tried to kill their son ''herself''. Then Hisoka was murdered by Muraki anyway, which is two lost children for Nagare. In the current arc he's accused of murder by Tatsumi, accused of ''making the crops die'' and the birth rate of Kamakura to lower, and then when [[CainAndAbel his brother's attempt to poison him]] fails Iwao [[GraveRobbing desecrates his daughters grave]]. All of this culminates in him [[DrivenToSuicide attempting suicide]], and telling Tatsumi (while crying) that he wanted [[TogetherInDeath "to go where Kasane and the children are."]] [[note]]Since the word used is ''children'', it can be assumed he ''did'' care about Hisoka, thus losing a child for him is a tearjerker. This does not, however, absolve him of his abuse of Hisoka.[[/note]]

** Made worse in the manga where Hisoka, because he can't bear the thought of being alone again, decides that [[spoiler: his place is at Tsuzuki's side, and [[TogetherInDeath if Tsuzuki chooses death then so will he]]]].
--->'''Hisoka:''' [[spoiler: I decided long ago that my place was by your side. So I won't leave you. I'll never let go of you again. I'll go with you... to that world you dream of... Tsuzuki.]]
* [[spoiler: Kazusa's]] death. That whole arc spent to protect her and she [[ShootTheShaggyDog dies anyway]]. [[TheWoobie Poor thing]].

** Not to mention if he ''hadn't'' encountered Muraki that fateful night, he would have still been doomed to be [[spoiler: raped]]. Apparently [[spoiler: a demon is getting passed from generation to generation in the Kurosaki lineage, inhabiting the bodies of every clan head and torturing them every night.]] Hisoka was [[FridgeHorror next in line]].
