* A relatively minor one, but if Jinpachi is paired with Kazuya, his intro has him say his grandson's name in a mournful tone of voice, as though trying to apologize for the shitstorm their family turned into.

* Jin's [[MyGreatestFailure Greatest Failure]]: he wasn't there when his mother fought Ogre to protect him and subsequently vanished.
** Consider this: Jin was a mere 15-year-old teenager when Jun went missing. He was essentially raised in the wilderness, thanks to Jun deciding to move to a quiet forest in Yakushima, a mostly uninhabited forest-laden island located off the coast of Kyushu. Then during that night, his only caregiver was taken away by what can be best described as a "natural disaster". Imagine seeing a helpless young teenager crying and screaming for his mother alone in the darkness of a forest...



* Miguel's OriginStory. He was a wild man and had run away from home at the age of fifteen, yet the only family member who didn't shun him for what he did was his little sister. Years afterward, he attended his wedding, which turned into a place of chaos when a Mishima Zaibatsu airship abruptly shot the church, causing an explosion and killing Miguel's sister. RoaringRampageOfRevenge ensues. This moment is included in the game's opening, as well, complete with Miguel's SkywardScream.
** And then it turns out that the reason for the bombing is because [[spoiler: Jin wants to spread as much hatred as possible to the world, so Azazel can be given a corporal form. Yeah, Miguel's tragic life is a mere drop to achieve a greater good. Heartbreaking.]]



* In the prologue of Scenario Campaign, Jin states how much he misses his mother and his wish for them to be reunited, even if he thinks that she may be already dead somewhere. He never completely moves on from her.



** [[spoiler: Even more heartbreaking is when Kazuya finally reunites with his mother and is forced to fight her.]]

* Shin Kamiya of ''Blood Vengeance''. [[IronWoobie Poor kid]]. He and his classmates were made guinea pigs for the Devil Gene testing by the Mishima Zaibatsu solely because they happened to enroll within their school, the Mishima Zaibatsu Polytechnic. Thanks to the test, all of Shin's classmates died, with the exception of Shin himself, who had to endure the rest of his life knowing that his life is cursed by the Gene, mentally and physically (his body is permanently marked with green tattoos). He tries to commit suicide once and twice, but can never manage it because his newfound power prevents him from dying. Then finally, [[spoiler: when he goes on an assault to Heihachi to take revenge for what he did, Heihachi nonchalantly kills him. As he lays dying, he states to Xiaoyu that he can finally break away from the Gene's influence and attain peace, even in death.]]

* Wang Jinrei's ending in {{Tekken}} 5: it's really rather sad how Wang had to destroy the TragicMonster Jinpachi's become, but their last talk together puts a lot of emphasis on the "Tragic" part.
** The most chilling part is him acknowledging that Jinpachi's death is not enough to fulfill his friend's wishes, and as he stands, he knows that he cannot follow his friend just yet.
--> '''Wang:''' My friend... It seems my time has yet to come!
** MoodWhiplash: This ending is used for the CrowningMomentofFunny of Wang's Tekken Tag 2 ending. Wang and Jinpachi also poke fun at Wang's death during the former's ending in Tekken 6. But damn if you didn't agree that Wang's "awesome existence" justified his presence in the latter games.
* Kazuya's ending in Tekken 5. Before he [[spoiler: kills Jinpachi]], he has a brief flashback from when he was a child, sparring with him.
** His ending in Tekken 1 is a bit sad as well. Sure, he finally got revenge on Heihachi, and the ending had a somewhat upbeat tone. But upon hindsight, that moment leads to Kazuya [[FaceHeelTurn turning into the monster]] he becomes for the rest of the series.
* Baek's ''Tekken 6'' ending is enough to draw a tear from anyone. As he takes an attack from [[TheDragon Azazel]] which was intended for his pupil Hwoarang, he retaliates with a large kick and puts an end to the monster, only to collapse lifelessly to the floor. Hwoarang, as the faithful student he is, rushes to check on his master and calls out to him, but gets no response and lets out an anguished [[SayMyName scream of ''Master'']] to the sky. Poor guy...
* Being a workaholic can be detrimental to one's social life, as described in Lei Wulong's ''Tekken 4'' prologue. Not only were his cases unsucessful, but losing his girlfriend in the process was the kicker to everything.

* Alisa thanking Lars for treating her like a human, shortly before shutting down.
* [=TTT2=] delivers a sad end for Christie. Looks like she'll finally forgive Eddy for his stint with the Zaibatsu in ''6'', except there were lots of people in the train station who dressed like him from behind and just when she found him, he didn't notice. When she's about to board his train, Christie got occupied with cheering up a crying girl, and when the deed's done, the train left. Eddy ''finally'' noticed Christie's pleas to wait, but he shook his head sadly, he probably couldn't forgive himself for doing that stint. It's a sad day for both Capoeira users.
** In Jin's ending, after Unknown is defeated, Jin is holding her in his arms as she reverts back to Jun and then fades away into nothingness. After a few moments of silence, Jin angrily transforms into Devil Jin and flies off screaming in rage. Continuing into Devil Jin's ending, Jin still screams in rage as he flies into space. A spirit of Jun appears before Jin and becomes one with him. Jin falls to Earth as his Devil Gene is neutralizing and he is found unconscious on a beach.
* Combot's TTT2 ending. There's no dialogue, but instead we see Combot staggering through a city, seeing thrown away machinery, then watching cars being crushed over and over. Then, he just gives up as his arm and leg break apart, and he falls to the ground. Then he briefly awakens again, to see Violet looking over him, and just as suddenly ceases to function. The worst part is Violet seemingly crying over his robot's 'death'.
* Jack-6's ending in Tag 2, reminiscent of the ending to TheIronGiant. Just as an asteroid is falling towards Earth, Jack-6 takes flight towards the asteroid and starts hammering away at it, only to have minimal effect. It looks like Jack-6 is about to fly away from it, only to fly towards it full throttle and uses all his power to break the asteroid into bits and sacrifices himself in the process.
* Most of Steve's endings really... in T4, he meets his mother for the first time as she saves his life, only for her to disappear again. In T6, he gives his winnings to pals Paul and Marshall, only for a bomb that was planted in the winnings blow them up. The look of horror on Steve's face pretty much says it all. Lastly, in TTT2, he has flashbacks to his days as a lab rat for the G-Corporation/Zaibatsu and Emma Kliesen, who we see was the one friendly face he had. She then leaves, and due to Leo's storyline, we know what happens to Emma. Seems like anyone who gets close to Steve isn't going to end up well.
* Hwoarang's reaction to Baek's death in Baek's ''6'' ending, wherein a very distressed Hwoarang screams "Sa buh nim!"[[note]]"Master!" in Korean[[/note]] as Baek lays dying.
* Similarly, Wang's death in ''6''. Defeating Azazel, a weary old man who blames the world's current predicament on his indifference to the Mishima family and their cursed bloodline lays down to die and be reunited with his best friend Jinpachi.
* [[spoiler:Alisa's "death" in Scenario Campaign. The accompanying music also enforces the sad mood. However, [[EarnYourHappyEnding if you complete all of the missions of Scenario Campaign (including the secret ones)]], you'll unlock journal entries detailing her restoration, with all of her memories intact.]]

''sad'', especially since he has a weary old man who blames the world's current predicament on his indifference to the Mishima family and to look after, which means that his fortune is their cursed bloodline lays down fortune, too. From his PerpetualPoverty, to die constantly losing his dream of opening up a restaurant, and be reunited with then, in T5, learning that his best friend Jinpachi.
* [[spoiler:Alisa's "death"

* Baek's backstory. [[JerkassWoobie My]]. His father was formerly a taekwondo champion until an accident abruptly ended his career, which sent him into a deep depression. Baek's mother left them at around the same time, leaving Baek's father to raise his son alone while simultaneously handling his personal problems. Then, just as they were about to have some fun at one time, Baek accidentally ''killed his father''. No wonder [[MyGodWhatHaveIDone he went a little into the deep end afterwards]].

Then Eddy had to live most of his young adult years behind the bars for a crime he didn't commit. Yet another innocent life screwed up by the [[ItsAllAboutMe Mishimas]].

** There's also the fact that Heihachi himself does not look at all happy. During the trailer, when Kazuya confronts him with killing Kazumi...[[http://thealvintaker.weebly.com/uploads/1/7/5/6/17562977/6388413.jpg?510 a tear actually falls down his face]].
---> '''Kazumi:''' I love Heihachi. And he loves me.
** Even worse, during the trailer, there is also a carving on the wooden floor near Kazumi with an [[UmbrellaOfTogetherness umbrella and two names underneath it]]. The two names are Kazumi and Heihachi. In Japanese culture, this is pretty significant as having two names carved under an umbrella is meant to signify that the couple whose names are carved there will be together forever.

* Hwoarang's reaction to Baek's death in Baek's ''6'' ending, wherein a very distressed Hwoarang screams "Sa buh nim!"[[note]]"Master!" in Korean[[/note]] as Baek lays dying.
* Similarly, Wang's death in ''6''. Defeating Azazel, a weary old man who blames the world's current predicament on his indifference to the Mishima family and their cursed bloodline lays down to die and be reunited with his best friend Jinpachi.
* [[spoiler:Alisa's "death" in Scenario Campaign. The accompanying music also enforces the sad mood. However, [[EarnYourHappyEnding if you complete all of the missions of Scenario Campaign (including the secret ones)]], you'll unlock journal entries detailing her restoration, with all of her memories intact.]]
* While MoodWhiplash is usually in effect in general when it comes to ''Tekken'', ''Tag 2'' really goes for the gusto. Compare somber, if not downright depressing endings like [[SkywardScream Jin going ballistic over]] [[spoiler:his mother leaving him yet again]] or Baek agonizingly reminiscing over his murder of his father to... [[HumiliationConga Roger Sr.'s continuing family/marital problems]] or [[TheComicallySerious Dragunov]] [[HopelessWithTech trying]] ([[EpicFail and failing]]) [[spoiler: to assemble Alisa IKEA-style]].

* Most of Steve's endings really... in T4, he meets his mother for the first time as she saves his life, only for her to disappear again. In T6, he gives his winnings to pals Paul and Marshall, only for a bomb that was planted in the winnings blow them up. The look of horror on Steve's face pretty much says it all. Lastly, in TTT2, he has flashbacks to his days as a lab rat for the G-Corporation/Zaibatsu and Emma Kliesen, who we see was the one friendly face he had. She then leaves, and due to Leo's storyline, we know what happens to Emma. Seems like anyone who gets close to Steve isn't going to end up well.

* Jin probably has it the worst. Being separated from his beloved mother at age fifteen, having trusted and been taken under the wing of his {{Jerkass}} grandfather for four years just to be betrayed by him at age nineteen, the constant battle against the Devil Gene in him, resorting to starting World War III all to end to his cursed heirloom... What more could a player ask?

** In Jin's ending, after Unknown is defeated, Jin is holding her in his arms as she reverts back to Jun and then fades away into nothingness. After a few moments of silence, Jin angrily transforms into Devil Jin and flies off screaming in rage. Continuing from Devil Jin's ending, Jin still screams in rage as he flies into space. A spirit of Jun appears before Jin and becomes one with him. Jin falls to Earth as his Devil Gene is neutralizing and he is found asleep on a beach.

* Jack-6's ending in Tag 2, reminiscent of the ending to TheIronGiant. Just as an asteroid is falling towards Earth, Jack-6 takes flight towards the asteroid and starts hammering away at it, only to have minimal effect. It looks like Jack-6 is about to fly away from it, only to fly towards it full throttle and uses all his power to break the asteroid into bits and sacrifices himself in the process.

* Combot's TTT2 ending. There's no dialogue, but instead we see Combot staggering through a city, seeing thrown away machinery, then watching cars being crushed over and over. Then, he just gives up as his arm and leg break apart, and he falls to the ground. Then he briefly awakens again, to see Violet looking over him, and just as suddenly ceases to function. The worst part is Violet seemingly crying over his robot's 'death'.

** His ending in Tekken 1 is a bit sad as well. Sure, he finally got revenge on Heihachi, and the ending had a somewhat upbeat tone. But upon hindsight, that moment leads to Kazuya [[FaceHeelTurn turning into the]] [[CompleteMonster monster]] he becomes for the rest of the series.

* [=TTT2=] delivers a sad end for Christie. Looks like she'll finally forgive Eddy for his stint with the Zaibatsu in ''6'', except there were lots of people in the train station who dressed like him from behind and just when she found him, he didn't notice. When she's about to board his train, Christie got occupied with cheering up a crying girl, and when the deed's done, the train left. Eddy ''finally'' noticed Christie's pleas to wait, but he shook his head sadly, he probably couldn't forgive himself for doing that stint. It's a sad day for both Capoeira users.

* Baek's ''Tekken 6'' ending is enough to draw a tear from anyone. As he takes an attack from [[TheDragon Azazel]] which was intended for his pupil Hwoarang, he retaliates with a large kick and puts an end to the monster, only to collapse lifelessly to the floor. Hwoarang, as the faithful student he is, rushes to check on his master and calls out to him, but gets no response and lets out an anguished [[SayMyName scream of ''Master'']] to the sky. Poor guy...
* Being a workaholic can be detrimental to one's social life, as described in Lei Wulong's ''Tekken 4'' prologue. Not only were his cases unsucessful, but losing his girlfriend in the process was the kicker to everything.
* Jin probably has it the worst.
