Tear Jerker: Abenobashi Mahou Shoutengai
The fact that the tearjerking moments stand out so much against the comedic feel of the series makes them quite poignant indeed.
Some of these moments include the flashbacks in episode 7, Sasshi's realization about Grandpa Masa's death in the real world, and the dramatic yet simple resolution in the finale.
