Tear Jerker: Deltora Quest
Tear Jerker - Towards the end of Return to Del, Doom regains his memory, realizing that Jasmine is his daughter. As he is partially unconscious, he starts crying and repeating conversations that he had with his dead wife, as Jasmine sobs beside him. Having two of the most stoic characters in the series break down is not an easy read.
I have something in both of my eyes...
It literally made this troper cry, and I don't cry while reading books as a rule. Especially when he begins conversing with his dead wife and Past!Jasmine and barely hears her when she tries to talk to him, and they are both crying, and I think I'll go bury my face in a towel.
The anime also had Thaegan and her children, in the group's (minus Ichabod) final appearance. The part when Thaegan committed her Suicide Attack and her children didn't want to be left behind was sweet in itself. Then when she asked them why they did it, they tell her they just wanted to be with their mother. If that doesn't start the water works the fact that their deaths created a lovely rainbow will.
