* Many of the memory items are truly heartbreaking. Even more so after TheReveal.
** In the class photo memory, the speaker notes that he had a very good life filled with little hardship. However, as he nears death, the realization hits him that he has no one to share this life with. The last line really pummels this anguish in: "... I'm scared."



* The Memory Items have some pretty sad stories.

** ''Baby's Sock'' has message from a parent (mother?)to their soon to be born baby and how the baby would be born post-apocalypse.

*** A later Memory Item, ''Worn Out Collar'' is equally sad, as the dog died waiting for his owner, like, "such a good boy".

** The Torn Picture and Withered Plant combinations, where they tell the sides an IllGirl (who's not named) and Botanist. From what we get, they liked each other but they never admitted their feelings to each other and, at one point, after a falling out, Mao leaves town to study, promising he'd see the girl again. Deep down, she knows he won't come back and, sure enough, he doesn't. By the time of the game, they've both died without ever seeing each other again. Oh, and, adding insult to injury, Mao's accomplishment, the lantern flower, is dead and withered and the Torn Picture pieces? The Girl's drawing.

*In general, You may not cry, but you will feel the urge to; Seto keeps losing almost everyone he meets during the game, leading to many, ''many'', scenes like [[spoiler:Crow and PF's death, Sai and Shin leaving for the beyond]].
* The scene in the dam when Seto discovers a working radio is able to make contact with other survivors, thus [[HopeSpot leading him to finally begin feeling hope again]].
*The Memory Items have some pretty sad stories.

**''Mother's Shoe'' belonged to a mother who died in an earthquake trying to get back to her daughter. It's connected item, ''Toy'' has the daughter still waiting.
**''Baby's Sock'' has message from a parent (mother?)to their soon to be born baby and how the baby would be born post-apocalypse.
-->''I want you to know how truly sorry I am.''
**''The Dog Collar'' has a memory from the dog's POV. From what's implied, the dog is old and doesn't know this, trying to cheer up its owner. They don't succeed and the dog starts to cry, too, but doesn't know why.
***A later Memory Item, ''Worn Out Collar'' is equally sad, as the dog died waiting for his owner, like, "such a good boy".

* Once they find the exit from the underground mall, [[spoiler:Personal Frame's occupational limit has been reached and her battery depletes.

* In an interview with the director, producer, writer and designer Kawashima Kentarou he states that [[spoiler:the glass cage project gave humans the ability to empathize without the use of words and they died when they used this power.

* Everything about [[spoiler: Crow's]] "[[DeathIsDramatic death]]"...Just like [[spoiler: PF]], he begins speaking in monotone and repeating himself like a broken doll, before becoming coherent just for enough time to give a heartfelt goodbye to Seto.
** The reveal before [[spoiler: his]] death can also lead to to the realization that [[spoiler: the humanoid robots]] you fight shortly afterword [[spoiler: are the same [[RoboticReveal model]] he was since they all have his voice]] as their [[HellIsThatNoise dying screams]]. This can make it sound as if you keep hearing [[spoiler: Crow die]] ''EVERY'' time you kill one of them, which you may end up doing A LOT.
* The creepy Chicken Merchant's love for his [[spoiler: dead child "princess"]]...Just the fact that he probably reached HeroicBSOD and deluded himself into becoming the silly, naive collector of junk long ago and never recovered.

* After going through a large underground shopping complex with PF (Personal Frame, a robot made to assist its owner), you find a place to go to the surface. PF tells Seto that her occupational limit has been reached, and when Seto asks what she means, she keeps repeating "Warning: Battery low" which causes him to panic. He puts her on the ground and asks her what he should do, but by then battery has been depleted. But then PF comes back to life for just one minute and tells Seto how glad she is that she met him, and expresses regret about not even asking for his name. Her final words are ''"When all is said and done, I am glad to have met you."'' Seto holds PF in his arms and tells her, and then digs her a grave.
