* Daikaku's death at the end of the movie. He and Shiro could only reunite shortly as friends before they passed by each other once more again. Even more tearjerking if you read the accompanying chapter in K Countdown.



* In the 8th episode of ''K: Return of Kings'', [[spoiler: Saruhiko storms off angrily after arguing with Reisi, and his whereabouts become unknown to the other characters. Despite knowing his faults, the rest of Scepter 4, Seri, Izumo and even Yata show clear concern for him when they can't find him.]]

* In ROK Episode 8 too, we get a flashback of the destruction of the Kagutsu Crater and standing in the midst of it is [[spoiler: The Grey King, Iwafune Tenkei when he was Ootori Seigo. We then learn he led his clan to try and stop the former Red King and as a result, his entire clan died. In addition, Iwafune finds 11 year old Nagare apparently trapped under a boulder and immediately tries to help him, only to be horrified and saddened when the rock is shown to have killed the child. ]]

** The Missing Kings drama CD also contains one with Yata's spectacular breakdown in front of the entirety of HOMRA when he learns that [[spoiler: Kusanagi is is closing the bar and HOMRA is being temporarily disbanded]]. The voice acting is especially heart wrenching to listen to.

** Watching them interact when you ''know'' that they used to think that what belonged to one belonged to the other as well is heart wrenching! The fact that they obviously suffer and miss one another doesn't make it any better.

* Every flashback of [[spoiler: Misaki and Saruhiko]] is just incredibly sad. When you bring them into chronological order (including the ones from CD Dramas and the Mangas) you can watch their formerly wonderful relationship crumble and then brake into pieces without [[spoiler: Misaki]] noticing and [[spoiler: Saruhiko]] unable to stop it.

* Most scenes with Adolf K. Weismann, from how he began his research into the Dresden Slate with the notion that it'll bring happiness to everyone - only to be selected as the First King with the power of immortality, cursed to live as his sister dies -, to how he voluntarily exiled himself from the world for over half a century (probably longer if not for [[spoiler:the Colorless King stealing his body]]) just because he'd rather not involve himself with anyone that he'll eventually have to watch die. His relationship with Kokujouji Daikaku is also particularly tragic given their recent conversation in episode 12 - his oldest friend waited for him for over half a century, only to hear the words "I'll have to say goodbye again..."

* The ending of Fushimi and Yata's Drama CD. It really shows how much of a JerkassWoobie Fushimi is. It especially hurts when Yata gives him a mild TheReasonYouSuckSpeech telling him that Fushimi should just move on in life despite having nobody who cares about him. And it can be so clearly seen how they both are hurting from what the other had done, but neither of them could understand each other well enough to patch it up.
