History TearJerker / TalesSeries

* ''VideoGame/TalesOfTheAbyss'': At Luke's lowest point he finds out [[spoiler:he's a [[CloningBlues clone]] and his childhood that he thought he forgot never happened., the person he respected and admired the most had been lying and deceiving him all along, he killed ''ten thousand'' people, everyone hates him, they prefer the original over him and the only person who might care is having her doubts.]] The sum of all this caused this troper to not only burst into tears, but somehow felt as if everyone around him hated him Luke's feeling of guilt hitting way to close to home.

* [[spoiler:Zelos]]'s death scene in VideoGame/TalesOfSymphonia sent this troper into a mad frenzy of hitting the reset button to do the ending properly.

* ''TalesOfGraces'' has a good share of tearjerking moments. Hell, even the first few hours makes such a drastic MoodWhiplash with [[spoiler: Absel witnessing Sophie dying and living with the guilt, later discovering that his father is dead, and of course the rain scene where there was even an in-game TearJerker.]]

* Many, many moments in ''TalesOfLegendia''.

* You can't go without mentioning ''TalesOfHearts''. After becoming very likeable characters, [[spoiler: Peridot and Byrocks were wounded by Incarose. [[CrowningMomentOfAwesome Chalcedny owns Incarose]], but he can't save Peridot and Byrocks.]] To add to the sadness, [[spoiler: Peridot then began talking about her [[DeadLittleSister dead little brother]] in order to persuade Chalcedny to go. Byrocks added to the persuasion, as Chalcedny's big brother. Their continued family metaphor as they laid dying was enough to make this troper cry.]]

* ''TalesOfEternia'': Pretty much every [[spoiler: Trial of Seyfert that Reid has to go through]] is just heart wrenching to varying degrees.
* The grand-daddy of all Tales games, TalesOfPhantasia, has it's fair share of tearjerkers

* ''TalesOfRebirth'' has one, in Hilda Rhambling's story arc. She finally met her blood mother, but got blatantly refused and thrown away like a thing many times. When [[CompleteMonster Tohma]] appears trying to kill her, her mother took the hit and died. After she's dead, Hilda found a letter written by her mother that sums up that her mother really loves her, and found out that her mother refused her to prevent a prophecy that could bring about her death. All that, and Hilda has yet to even call her 'mother', which caused her to break down and cry. This troper at first didn't care much about Hilda, but after re-watching that scene, he really wants to give her a hug...

** Grune's character quest, from the Wings of Light to the end. Everything about it. [[spoiler: Especially the huge difference in Grune's personality before and after her awakening.]] She was this troper's favorite character...

*** Not to mention [[spoiler: the times his apparition appeared after each rescue of your party in Wulgaia]]. This troper found herself crying her way through the last hour of the game because every five minutes she'd remember those scenes and feel so sorry for [[spoiler: Mithos]], perhaps even more than anyone else in her party. The thought of how twisted his views had become after thousands of years without his sister, being discriminated against, being betrayed by the only people he trusted, and how young he might have been at the start of his madness ensured many tissues met their demise in his name.

** How about Sheena during [[spoiler: Corrine's death]]? That always gets to me, especially considering that [[spoiler: Corrine, up until she met Lloyd and co, was Sheena's only friend and the only one who believed in her wholeheartedly. So when the little guy jumps in and makes a [[for her HeroicSacrifice]], it's so sad, especially as Sheena begs him not to die and then promptly beats the absolute CRAP out of Volt.]] The crack in her voice is amazing.

** [[spoiler:Botta's sacrifice]] at the end of the Iselia Human Ranch always gets to this Troper.

** You encounter one at the very start of the game. Cless and Chester goes hunting, and their town gets burned down while they're away. Cless is effectively orphaned as a result and Chester loses his little sister. That's right, the game slams one in your face within 5 minutes of starting the game!

** The scene in Ary. The background music didn't help things. Although to be fair, it's of the happy variant since the player has come far and the party is about to enter the very definitive FinalDungeon.
