* The aftermath of the battle with Kodo in Sendai - just when it seems like ''for once'' everything will be all right, Heisuke and Sannan both collapse, their last energy burned up from using their Fury powers. All Hijikata can do is clasp both their hands as they say their final farewells and crumble to dust.

** But by far the absolute mother of all heartbreaking, horrible things in that same damned scene is Okita's death. Even if you were one of the ones who thought Okita was a bit of a mixed bag, which is unlikely, the Saito and Okita friendship was one of trust and admiration beyond what you'd expect. Okita, who is sick with tuberculosis that not even the water of life can cure - and the water of life would gradually drain his life anyway, mind you - finally states that maybe Hijikata wasn't so bad after all. It's then that Saito smiles and turns his back on him. "Souji, we should go on," is what he says, but he gets no response. When he turns back, only Okita's sword is there, causing Saito [[LastStand to drink the water of life and go on a rampage killing furies]] - using both swords to honor his fallen partner and feel him by his side once more.

** Special mention goes to Okita's in ''Kyoto Winds'': Rather than any of the above, it basically has their relationship destroyed to the point where Okita threatens to kill her if she comes near him again. Unlike [[IneffectualDeathThreats before]], this time he doesn't seem to be joking.
