---> '''Mirai''': I can't hear you. I can't hear you, Yuuki. Don't leave me...

* The final episode, ("Dear Yuki") this for both the audience and the characters, particularly when Mirai is finally reunited with her mother and they both embrace each other and sob, both of them in relief for at last seeing each other again and Mirai also in heartbreak as she finally comes out of denial about her little brother's death.
** The flashback scene of Yuki's life before the Earthquake. The music and "thank you for being born as my little brother" ensure it's impossible to watch without waterworks flowing.
** The vase of flowers on Yuki's desk, having seen his classroom in the previous episode.

** The credits are both this and [[CrowningMomentOfHeartwarming Heartwarming]]. We see minor characters in their lives after the earthquake, including the couple that lost their grandkids in the earthquake sitting together and watching the ocean.

*** The grandfather, who we saw earlier helping other people, explains to the trio [[MyGreatestFailure not only what happened to his grandkids]], but also that [[ItsAllMyFault he and his wife had urged their grandkids' parents to have them visit for the summer in the first place]]. The grandfather then says that [[SurvivorGuilt he wishes]] [[TakeMeInstead he died instead]].

* In episode five we see that one of Mirai's classmates has lost her mother in the earthquake. She only appeared for a brief scene and Mirai herself said they weren't even friends however it's still tragic, especially since it was so close to home for Mirai and it serve as a MoodWhiplash after one of the few times we see her genuinely happy.

*** The grandmother is denial and believes that Mirai & Yuuki are her grandchildren, so she keeps trying to approach them.
