!!The original Game:
* Fail to save someone from their predicted death? Their send-offs can be downright ''tragic''. Some of the worst ones are [[spoiler:Makoto, Jungo, Joe, Otome and Io]].
-->'''Io:''' "No... This can't be happening... [[spoiler:Makoto]]... [[spoiler:Makoto's]] dead..."
** Failing to prevent Tuesday's Death leads to [[FridgeBrilliance Fridge Sorrow]] concerning Daichi. He's traumatized enough when you ''save'' [[spoiler:Jungo]]; if you '''fail''', then he has to deal with [[spoiler:watching him get beaten to death right in front of him, not fighting back for fear of endangering the hostage -- i.e. '''him''']]. No ''wonder'' he slips back to CowardlyLion afterward.
** If :[[spoiler:Otome]] is burned to death by [[spoiler:Bifrons]] then [[spoiler:Koharu is orphaned]]. Worse if you remember the scene where you promise to [[spoiler:adopt her if anything ever happens to Otome]]. Woof...
** If you let [[spoiler:Io die as a result of the ritual of summoning Lugh, [[PlayerPunch her actual death turns out WORSE than her death clip predicts]].]] To wit: [[spoiler:First, Io [[{{Gorn}} starts convulsing with green fire spewing out of her mouth. Then it violently bursts out of her chest, along with what appears to be a huge amount of blood. A pool of said blood forms around her, lingering long enough to mortify Daichi before she finally fades away,]] leaving everyone positively dumbfounded.]] The very next scene is one long YouBastard to the player (disguised as a MyGodWhatHaveIDone scene) for [[spoiler:not getting her to at least Fate Stage 3 and comforting her after it's revealed that she will be Lugh's medium.]] As if that wasn't enough, [[spoiler:she's heavily implied to have a crush on, if not fully in love, with the protagonist.]]
* Many of the 5th FATE Rank events as well:
** Io finds a little boy [[spoiler:contemplating suicide after losing his whole family. She talks him down, revealing she seriously considered killing herself as well, but found comfort in her friends. It works.]]
** Joe discovers that [[spoiler:his girlfriend was hiding just how bad her condition was when she abruptly passes away.]] He resolves to NEVER be late again.
** Jungo [[spoiler:decides to [[ShooTheDog set his cat free]] in a safe place with other cats so that it won't be in danger.]] That alone is sad enough, but Jungo [[spoiler:running off after while his kitty frantically looks and cries for his friend...

* Why is Keita so dead-set on not having friends? Because in the past, [[spoiler:his father tried to help his friends, only to get betrayed and stuck with their debts]].
** If you weren't able to prevent [[spoiler:Jungo]]'s death, Keita's Fate Events reveal more about this. Eventually, he learns that [[spoiler:his father died in the earthquake protecting a coworker]], and doesn't take the news well.

* [[spoiler:The Anguished One/Alcor/Al Saiduq ending. Holy shit, talk about a BittersweetEnding. Alcor becomes God after killing Polaris and recreates the world anew. The Bittersweet part comes from the fact that Alcor BECOMES the world, losing his physical form and his ability to speak with Hiro and his other friends, but he can watch over the humans he loves so much.

** There's also the fact that you're [[spoiler: creating a new world from scratch i.e. a primeval world before humanitie's involvement. seeing as there's no mention of administrative authority or the things you can do with it in the Septentrione arc, it's likely that Alcor didn't use it to make the new world a modern one. you've essentially set humanity back centuries for true freedom. The best part case from this situation at least due to how it was used the new world exists outside the system, so Canopus or the other Administrators cannot interfere.]]
** [[spoiler: Record Breaker makes it a bit better, by making the cannon ending a mix of Triumphant and Kingmaker. Al Saiduq takes the throne, but retains his form because he is asked to reset the world, rather than choosing to become the new world.]]
*** [[spoiler: Record Breaker's Al Saiduq ending is equally heart-wrenching, though. You become the new Administrator, protecting Earth from future attacks, at the cost of no longer being able to live on Earth with your friends. Al Saiduq's happy to become your Sword and eternal friend, at least, and switches his striped suit for a bunny jacket.]]

** Its actually implied that [[spoiler:Alcor may have been revived as well in the true ending]]. YAY!!
* Whether or not the [[spoiler:Black Frost]] you fight is the same one [[spoiler:from VideoGame/DevilSurvivor]], the thought of having to kill [[spoiler:one of the few kind (outside the overlord evil path)]] demons is devastating.
* The credits song on certain endings, [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vW3y5G0WmbI Beyond the firmament]]. Especially because we see that [[spoiler: Alcor got his wish granted]].
* The scenes are VERY easy to miss but if you follow along the Dera Deka sidequest [[spoiler:He tries to summon a demon to help you and your friends save the world...But summons Jikoku of all this and is mortally wounded.

!!Record Breaker:
* The nightmare sequence. [[spoiler: It starts with a pan across a ruined battlefield, showing major characters dead on the ground in small groups. It soon focuses on the still living Daichi, pulling himself along the ground and calling for anyone else still alive, looking in different directions to show that there doesn't seem to be anyone left. Except Yamato, who seems to have [[OOCIsSeriousBusiness softened significantly]]. Then Daichi shifts onto his back for a MortalWoundReveal, wondering whether the absent Main Character could have made a difference, and stating his faith that Yamato can still stop the appocalypse in his last breath. Yamato [[BreakTheHaughty doesn't think]] [[MortalWoundReveal he'll last long either]], but the scene seems to end with him [[AscendToAHigherPlaneOfExistence departing with Alcor]].]] And then Daichi [[CatapultNightmare wakes up screaming]].
** Other characters have their own perspective on this sequence, but Airi's is particularly worth noting here. [[spoiler:Hinako was the first fatality TakingTheBullet for her. Note that one of Hinako's fans was left next to Airi while Hinako herself was [[BlownAcrossTheRoom on a separate part of the battlefield.]] Airi meanwhile was too torn up over Hinako's sacrifice to contribute further to the fight and was cut down soon after. In the present time, Airi is still torn up about this and doesn't think she was worth Hinako's sacrifice. Furthermore, it's implied that Jungo tried to save her from the next attack heading her way but got there too late, so she doesn't remember his attempt.]]
* [[BittersweetEnding The Guardian ending.]] [[spoiler:The Hero becomes the new Administrator in place of Polaris, and with a human on the Heavenly Throne mankind will no longer need to fear attacks by the other Administrators. However, he must remain in the Akasha Stratum for all eternity, never again able to interact with his friends or the rest of the human world. After regressing the world he erases the party's memories of him, but they will likely still experience deja vu, as seen by Daichi trying to remember "something important" when he and Io graduate high school without their friend. On the bright side, at least Al Saiduq is still around to keep the Hero company.]]
** This ending's final Nicaea message drives the point home:
-->''The world goes on.''
* While it's actually a happy situation, Koharu's parents did not die in the regressed world and Otome did not adopt her. [[spoiler: But being confronted with the situation of the world and not having Koharu as a sort of 'limiter' on Otome, she now works herself to the bone and even begins to suffer from stress-induced Anemia. Otome also admits that she feels horribly lonely.]] The last situation goes more into a Heartwarming territory, though, [[spoiler: when Otome realizes that, even if Koharu is not her adoptive daughter in this world, she still has friends and comrades she can lean on]].
* Fail to save someone from their predicted death? Their send-offs can be downright ''tragic''. Some of the worst ones are [[spoiler:Makoto, Jungo, Joe, Otome and Io]].
