* Tankie later spends the opening of Centricide 4 mourning the loss of his close friend, including a song that concludes with a HeartwarmingMoment, eventually crying before getting back to the mission.

* The Centricide 7.0 rabbit hole has tons of videos for the viewer to explore through [=YouTube=]'s info cards and end screens. Some are particularly more personal, sad, and raw.

-->-- '''Jreg''', ''"Office Life"''

* Jreg's videos about his ([[UnreliableNarrator maybe]]) real life fall into this. They're lengthy rants where he's clearly actually upset and is attempting to cover up his true feelings and insecurities with a thick layer of irony, to the point he admits he doesn't actually know if anything he's saying means anything.

* [[https://youtu.be/gLYWLobR248 "I Watch My YouTube Videos At 2x Speed ♪"]] is a musical lament that highlights how empty and shallow social media content now feels.

Yes, even a [=YouTuber=] as offbeat and audacious as WebVideo/{{Jreg}} can have some [[TearJerker genuinely sad moments]].

** It's even worse for Tankie, who had witnessed his closest friend's personality be completely erased only a short time prior and was under the impression that he was losing the only other member of the extremists he liked or tolerated. He even remarks on how he's "already lost so much". The fact that we see him drinking heavily by himself in "Centricide 8.0" (complete with him looking at a photo of the extremists) while the rest of the Extremists are off with their own quadrant means that he wasn't good at making friends in the first place, so seeing his two only friends being (almost) killed and suffer a DeathOfPersonality must have did a number on him.

* [[spoiler: Transhumanist, the most likeable and sane of the wackies, heartlessly betrays his comrades in a bid for power, and becomes the monstrous posthumanist, and mortally wounds Anarcho-primitivism, who dies cradled in the arms of Anarcho-Monarchism.]]

* Milder example but Nazbol getting rejected by Nazi and Commie despite saving them from Horseshoe Centrist is a downer. Despite pulling a BigDamnHeroes moment, Nazbol still fundamentally too wacky for the regular Extremists, even as he is rejected by the Centrists and Wackys alike.
