Let's face it: this '''ENTIRE SHOW''' is a Tear Jerker. This is the one tearjerking anime that /a/ never bashed on. [[Website/FourChan /a/]], which routinely mocks ''Anime/NeonGenesisEvangelion'' and ''Anime/PuellaMagiMadokaMagica'', found it a horrific tearjerker.

* As ''Anime/GraveOfTheFireflies'' will teach you, war is not kind to children. Not even in a vast CrapsackWorld slowly dying in orbit around a star in the early stages of its own death. I (this is too important to be impersonal) suggest you set aside an entire day to watch it if you plan to. It's only 13 episodes long, but it can leave you unable to act for hours afterwords. And don't let the first episode fool you.
** For this troper, it wasn't even a part of the series, but in the opening, at the realization that the photo of [[spoiler:the carefree Sara, in her own world before the series starts, is the ''only time in the entire series'' she's shown smiling.]]
** One episode's pre-title sequence. Abelia is woken up at an ungodly hour of the morning by Hamdo, has to listen to his rant and then get to work waking up Hellywood to do some complicated and unnecessary task. When she hangs up the phone, she sits and stares at nothing for a few seconds with a look of utter despair. Then she smacks herself in the face and gets out of bed with her usual expression, and the title credits roll.

* The opening sequence of episode 6 was utterly brutal. Sara's near rape and escape into the desert is unspeakably difficult to watch. But the way she ran out of that building, tore off the soldier's uniform and stood free, her hair blowing in the wind, Taku Iwasaki's beautiful score playing, it's just too emotionally potent NOT to get teary-eyed.

* When Shu and Sara meet again, she tells him "You lied to me." Sad not just because of her situation, but because of how Shu must feel knowing he let her down in a horrible way (even though there wasn't much he could've done).

* Sara's story is a tear jerker from the beginning, when Shu sees her inside his cell and tries to talk to her, and she just jerks away from him without words like an abused dog. [[spoiler:[[SpoilerHound Going into the show knowing what she's been through]] actually makes it ''harder'' to watch.]]

* Elamba talks about his backstory, that the troops raided his village, killed people he knew, and took his sister [[spoiler: he found her corpse half eaten by animals,]] and by this point, his tone shows that the experiences have taken a tole on his mind.
** Even when he's dived head first into his campaign against Hamdo, the doctor, A NiceGuy and Sis's friend, tries to disuade him and telling him how far he's fallen. [[spoiler: he shoots the old man dead.]]
