History TearJerker / YugiohTheAbridgedSeries

--> '''Rex:''' You'll never understand what it's like to be what I am. To be ''less than a joke''.

** Rex's backstory involving him and Weevil getting beat up because "[[SeinfeldIsUnfunny References aren't funny!]]" Yes, it was PlayedForLaughs, but then there's the RealitySubtext of [=LittleKuriboh=] having depression and feeling pressure to live up to people's expectations.

* Yami's state hasn't improved in the beginning of episode 72 ''at all''. It might be even worse to see Yami, the series' basic embodiment of AwesomeEgo and DeadpanSnarker, so shaken he can't emote in anything but a dead monotone.

*** And why did he get up and leave the car? [[spoiler: [[ItsAllMyFault To go cry over losing Yugi some more.]]]]

** There's also the point in the beginning where Tea is trying to comfort Yami, but he only answers with a quiet, monotonous "mm-hmm" for everything, even as he gets up and leaves the car they're sitting in.

--> '''Yami:''' ([[TranquilFury deathly quiet]]) Okay, yeah. That's the worst he could do.

* Episode 73 takes the scene from the original series where Weevil claims he has Yugi's soul in one of his cards only to rip it up and plays it completely straight. Yami gets so pissed at the thought of Weevil pretending to destroy Yugi's soul that he [[OOCIsSeriousBusiness drops all of his joking and wisecracks.]]

* Yami's state hasn't improved in the beginning of episode 72 ''at all''. It might be even worse to see Yami, the series' basic embodiment of AwesomeEgo and DeadpanSnarker, so shaken he can't emote in anything but a dead monotone.

** And it gets worse when you remember just what Kuriboh's special ability ''is''. It can sacrifice itself to make sure your life points don't take any damage... Kind of like how Yugi sacrificed his soul to save Yami's.

* The show is already in its fourth season. Given how there's only 1 (or 2, depending on [=LittleKuriboh]='s progress) season in the original anime to work on left, the show will soon reach its conclusion and Martin will probably retire from abridging. It's a very sad fact for long-time fans to realize.

* [[https://youtu.be/2CkAiqeWejE The noncanon video]] LK released after the 2016 presidential election. Especially the way Joey's voice starts cracking near the end like he's fighting back the urge to cry.

** Yugi compares himself to Kuriboh, the weakest monster in the game that is frequently treated as a joke in the series proper. Crosses with FridgeBrilliance, as while Kuriboh is a weak monster, it's gotten Yami out of tight spots occasionally in duels...much like Yugi.

** Once the episode ends, Yami realizes [[MyGodWhatHaveIDone what he's done]] and is reduced to InelegantBlubbering about how Yugi's been taken away and about how alone he is now.

* In episode 71, Yugi comes to terms with the fact that he's just not as cool as Yami and allows his soul to be consumed. As big a dick as Yami is, even he can't bear to see his partner throw his life away.

* The heartwarming ending episode 70, with Yugi and Yami attempting to sing 'You've Got a Friend In Me' together is this, as their bond is played up just in time for the filler episode that will rip them apart.

* Mrs. Ishtar's last dying words to Odion. Made all the more heartbreaking as her husband couldn't stop being a sexist pig even in her final moments.

** LK's fics deserve a bit more mention. "Marik and Bakura go to Censored Town" has another moment: When Marik, while swimming, [[spoiler:dives in shallow water, hits his head on a rock, and drowns.]] Bakura's slow realization that something is wrong, and the way he gets so desperately frantic to [[spoiler:revive him]] is absolutely heartbreaking. Not to mention the way the series' self-awareness isn't played for laughs at all- Bakura [[spoiler: mourns that he wouldn't have been able to save Marik no matter what, because he's the villain and undeserving of happiness.]] And earlier with the talk about 'Melvin Dreams', where apparently Melvin just forcibly takes over Marik at night sometimes. The first time it happened shortly after the beginning of their partnership. [[spoiler: Bakura disliked Marik immensely, sleeping in his fathers' room, where Marik refused to step foot into (which is a tearjerker unto itself.) When he's nearly attacked by Melvin in a [[NightmareFuel very unsettling scene]], he manages to talk Melvin down, where Marik came to. Marik started sobbing immediately, seemingly knowing he might have killed Bakura as Melvin.]] This is Marik we're talking about here.
** "Midknight at the Oasis" is largely silly, but there's a few kickers. Like how Marik is utterly heartbroken when the [[spoiler:woman he was supposed to have a date with]] didn't show up. The poor kid nearly starts crying.

** Mrs. Ishtar's last dying words to Odion. Made all the more heartbreaking as her husband couldn't stop being a sexist pig even in her final moments.

** Mako's speech at the end of Harpoonshipping. While not really sad, it's beautiful in a way.
*** [[spoiler: The ocean forgiving him.]]
** The eulogy to Tristan's voice, despite being ''really'' weird, is rather sad, if it's looked at the right way.
** Marik and Florence's [[FinalLoveDuet Final Hate Duet]] at the end of episode 46. What's worse is that, considering Florence didn't show up for about a hundred unabridged episodes after this, he probably won't return to the abridged series for a while either. He's essentially dead. At least there's always the evil council videos...
** [[spoiler:Noah's death]] in episode 56.
** Tristan's PleaseWakeUp to Joey in episode 58.
** A great deal of LK's fanfiction ''Marik and Bakura go to Censored Town''. There's all the unrequited love, but [[spoiler:Marik being possessed by Melvin after Bakura abandoned him and Bakura's guilt]] is probably the kicker.

** [[spoiler: The death of Yugi's Grandpa]] in BBT Abridged can be pretty sad, especially since it has the music from ''Disney/TheLionKing'' playing in the background. CrossesTheLineTwice when he reveals that [[OpportunisticBastard he's just playing it up]] for an [[OnlyInItForTheMoney Oscar-nod]].
** YGOTAS Sails Away. Well, at least until Marik takes over...
** Kaiba's [[TheReasonYouSuckSpeech verbal attack]] on Joey in episode 60. Sure, it's Kaiba we're talking about but ''jeez'', that was [[KickTheDog cold]] even by ''his'' standards!
