6* The end of Episode 19 has a "friendly fight" between Sadlygrove and Prince Armand turn near-deadly. Severely beaten and feeling threatened upon his life, Percedal gives in control to Rubilax, becoming the large demon that fought Yugo in the first episode. Evangelyne, having had enough of the pointless fight, tries to get in Rubilax/Sadlygrove's way, and he returns the favor by ''destroying her bow''. The shock hits both her and (when he regains some composure) Sadlygrove. The latter then flees from the Sadida Kingdom still in demon form, and is now viewed as an enemy by the prince and his men, leaving Evangelyne with some very empty eyes.
7* The death of the Soft Oak in episode 13 is pretty sad too.
8* Percedal Sadlygrove's death to the guns of Razetime, a walking autonomous tank in episode 25 (Season 1). The sequence is full of common tropes, but with strong execution and somber reactions from the entire cast. The biggest reaction comes from Evangelyne; the series' more serious, mature and supportive character. The whole episode, she and (primarily) Sadlygrove have been rallying and encouraging the team past fear and uncertainty, to stop Nox. When Percedal falls, [[HeroicBSOD she ''breaks'' entirely]]; and [[http://imgur.com/p2pxV0x her eyes]] show it immediately. She's so utterly destroyed that when Razetime marches straight up next to her to finish the job, she makes no effort to avoid her death - calmly giving her own tearjerking line to echo Percedal's: "Let's become legends together." Even Rubilax, the group's DeadpanSnarker, least concerned member and frequent antagonizer of his master Percedal, appears genuinely torn up.
9* Nox has spent 200 years of research, plotting, and genocide in order to gather the energy needed to travel back in time and stop his family from being destroyed partially due to his own negligence (thinking that it's okay to commit atrocities, [[WrongTimeTravelSavvy since he'll erase them all when he succeeds]]). In the end, he manages to defeat the heroes, drain the Tree of Life (killing the Sadidas in the process), and uses all the energy gained over this time period to travel back in time... a whole twenty minutes. When he realizes that everything he did was AllForNothing, and that he won't be able to correct his mistakes, he completely breaks down. The ending would have been happier if he had completely won.
10** The last scene of the montage that plays during the credits of the Season 1 finale consists of Nox's now [[ReducedToDust disintegrated body]] along with his [[EmptyPilesOfClothing leftover mask and armor]], and it's implied that he used the last of his Wakfu to transport himself to the grave of his very family he wanted to bring back. TogetherInDeath indeed.
11* Really, the entire season finale is a TearJerker where the tears are made of {{Hot Blood|ed}}.

15* Season 2 starts off pretty rough, with Eva mourning Percedal's death and spending all her time in front of his statue. Then she starts hearing his voice and wonders if she's going crazy, soon deciding to head off alone to try and find him. Fortunately, he turns out to be alive.
16* Even at the end of the second season, Qilby's final breakdown (though a lot more earned than Nox's) is pitiful. After Yugo defeats him and his sister Shinonome rejects him, Yugo strands him in the Blank Dimension forever. Qilby's trapped in his greatest fear--being alone--one he's vainly been attempting to avoid the entire season, last seen huddling and whimpering in the middle of nothingness as he prepares for a very ''lonely'' eternity ahead.

19[[folder:Season 3]]
20* The first episode of season 3 begins and ends with the apparent murder of Sadlygrove. Adamai forced Yugo to watch.
21* In season 3 episode 3 Oropo makes the brotherhood see their greatest regrets and fears WHILE their bodies age with each waking movement in the time trap, with Dally and Ruel getting the short end of the stick (with their bodies becoming of that of old men with a foot on the grave).
22** Yugo sees Nox and Qilby who both accuse Yugo of being just as monstrous a person as they are.
23** Sadlygrove sees his family turn on him and demand to know how many wives, sons, and daughters he had and abandoned as the Iop god.
24** Ruel sees his one and only love condemn him for choosing money over their marriage.
25** Amalia sees her father dying while her brother accuses her of still being a spoiled princess.
26** And even when the trap was dispelled and their bodies aged to normal, their facial reactions of that mental attack show that it left a serious blow to their psyche.
27* Yugo and Amalia both have to go through a ton of confusion and heartbreak this season and it nearly causes their relationship to implode before they manage to get together.
28** Yugo is ready to completely buckle under the stress of not being able to find his brother, on top of already being worried sick about him and not being able to make amends for their fight over the Dofus and has been searching non stop for months with no leads.
29** Amalia's father has become gravely ill, though it isn't made clear if this is due to illness or just old age. In his stead, Armand has assumed the role of regent and his main priority seems to be to marry his sister off to any available suitor and pack her away. He and his new wife appear to have plans that they don't want his sister around to interfere in. Amalia's relationship with him is hinted to have completely turned sour due to his abrasiveness and constant manipulations to see her shipped off to the best possible political suitor (which seems to be within his wife's family). Amalia has more or less confined herself to her chambers and her father's bedside, but all she can do is watch him grow weaker and weaker, and she will have no family support once he dies.
30** During the journey through the tower, Yugo and Amalia are finally forced to confront their feelings for each other, but though Amalia is willing and desperately wants Yugo to be her lover, Yugo is still torn up by their differences. He claims he no longer worries about his appearance (though it's clear it bugs him), he also seems to think that Amalia will expect him to become some kind of regal, kingly figure to give her a good life, which he doesn't believe he'll be able to do. He also doesn't want her to waste her youth waiting for him to grow up and so tries to reject her, even after his true emotions compel him to passionately kiss her at the same time. Their friction is aggravated by their fears of not being able to communicate to each other and made worse by Sipho slipping among the team again and fostering further division disguised as Ruel.
31** During the battle inside of Oropo's subconscious, we finally understand the full weight of Yugo's emotional trauma. He's been carrying the guilt of all the previous seasons and the special episodes with him and the intense strain is literally weighing him down. He's also guilt ridden over his fear of the responsibility of being a good King and not having freed his people in the last 6 years in addition to his fear of not being able to live a normal life with the woman he loves, plus the frightening realization that even after he dies, it STILL won't end. He'll have to be reborn and go through the same heartache and uncertainty all over again. He's completely aware of the totality of his existence and it scares him to death.
32** Fortunately, in the final battle against Oropo, Amalia is able to make her heart clear, rejecting Oropo even as he tries to maker her love him, using his connection to Yugo to manipulate her feelings. In a cross with heartwarming moment, She comes to Yugo's aid during the final battle and states that though Oropo may want to try and take Yugo's life for himself, he will never be able to take her from him and Yugo, finally realizing the true depths of Amalia's love for him at last, embraces her as his lover/wife to be
33* Seeing Ruel's flashbacks in Season 3 Episode 8 can be pretty rough, as the viewer already knows that his relationship with Arpagone didn't work out.
34* During the final battle of the season, thanks to Oropo kissing Amalia and professing his love for her, a heartbroken and furious Echo reveals the truths about Oropo's plan that he had been keeping from the rest of the group. This shakes and ends up breaking his group's trust in him, as the revelations implied that they were all nothing but the latest batch of pawns in his attempts at attaining his goals.
35* The last episode of season 3: Inglorium, ends with Oropo incapable of killing the Brotherhood of the Forgotten, who were sent to Inglorium alongside the Brotherhood of the Tofu with the help of Lady Echo. Oropo decides to remain with Lady Echo while his ArtifactOfDoom explodes, destroying them along with his entire dimension, when they share one LastKiss.
36-->'''Oropo:''' You take a great risk Echo.\
37'''Lady Echo:''' I was sure about this *touches Oropo chest*.\
38'''Oropo:''' I really want to do it. I would have liked another end.\
39'''Lady Echo:''' I know.
40* When Yugo reaches Inglorium, what's the first thing he can see? An illusion of Oropo disappearing, then all the Eliotropes presences that were with Oropo [[CessationOfExistence also disappear]] and finally Oropo (in his [[ThisWasHisTrueForm original form]]) smiles at Yugo and they touch their palms, shortly after that Oropo [[GoOutWithASmile disappears]] and Yugo start to [[CryForTheDevil cry]], all accompanied with [[MomentOfSilence no music at all]].

43[[folder:[=OVAs=]]]
44* Nox's special episode, we see a loving and caring father who wanted to use the cube so he could be rich and improve his family's life only to get obsessed with the power it gives him, neglecting his family to the point his wife went to with her sister and died because of Ogrest's chaos. They are dead because of him and he knows it.
45** The end credit song is really sad [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FUMFPLW1Uu8&list=LL&index=78 truly a tearjerker]].
46** Even worst, Oroppo manipulated theses events meaning that not only Yugo is partially responsible for it but also for all of Nox's victims.
47* Most of Special Episode 3. It starts with Yugo and Adamai fighting over the Dofus, resulting in Yugo physically harming Adamai and Adamai rejecting his brother forever. Then we have Grovy losing his arm in the battle against Ogrest and Yugo being indirectly responsible for a hail of asteroids raining down upon the World of Twelve, resulting in widespread devastation. It ends with a happy tear jerker, though: Eva and Grovy's wedding.

50The Eliatropes and Dragons’ entire predicament is this. They first had to deal with losing their world and most of their species to the Mechasms then they had to deal with Orgonax while their mother was taken prisoner by Toross and experienced numerous hardships in her absence, there’s also the fact that all of it didn’t need to happen at all in the first place if the Goddess didn’t grant Qilby and Shinonomé their ability and everything would’ve been fine in the end. What resulted was a devasted planet, the Eliatrope adults dying and their children being orphaned and half of the Goddess’s children dying and a millennia of bad luck and suffering for the entire race.
51
52Yugo calling Qilby a monster and accusing him of helping Toross when he didn’t because of his past actions. It just shows how Yugo hasn’t gotten over what Qilby did and is still bitter towards him despite feeling bad for imprisoning him again.
53
54Qilby’s death: He faces the Mechasm Lokus who gives him its heart for impressing it with Qilby making it into the new Eliasphere. Unfortunately for him, the artifact is too powerful even for him and he ends up dying when he rescues Yugo from the Necroworld but not before he expresses his happiness at reuniting with Shinonomé inside their Dofus after thousands of years apart. What’s even sadder is that Yugo himself starts crying since Qilby went out of his way to save him and treated him more like family rather than an enemy like he used to and even admits that he’s his king. The Eliatrope Goddess also does not take the news well.
55
56Sipho is still saddened by Oropo and Lady Echo’s deaths and mourns them upon meeting the Goddess which just shows how truly loyal and devoted he was to her and to a lesser extent Oropo.
