6	It may be a parody series, but, [[TearJerker/{{Hellsing}} like its source material,]] ''Hellsing Ultimate Abridged'' can bring the tears too.
7
8	----
9	* Pip's Death in episode 7 manages to be even more heartbreaking than the original. Kaiser Neko and Nowacking's performances really sell it. Even worse, this is the first time Seras calls him "Pip" and not "Mr. Bernadotte".
10	-->'''Pip:''' ''(to Seras, after kissing her)'' Next time, maybe I'll get past first base! ''(laughs, then coughs blood)'' Ahh, fat chance... You're far too fine a wine... for a lout... like me...
11	** Prior to this, Seras is obviously aware of what just happened, but is hoping beyond hope that her ears were deceiving her.
12	* ''[[OOCIsSeriousBusiness Alucard]]'' gets a moment during his conversation with Seras while the latter is beating herself up over Pip's death.
13	--> '''Seras''': I'm saying I failed you! I failed everyone!\
14	'''Alucard''': The only way you fail is by giving up.\
15	'''Seras''': I give up, because I'm not strong enough!\
16	'''Alucard''': Listen to me Draculina! [[YouAreBetterThanYouThinkYouAre You are so much stronger than you let yourself be.]]\
17	'''Seras''': How do you know?!\
18	'''Alucard''': Because behind those eyes, I saw something I lost long ago...''[[DeathSeeker The will to live]]''.
19	* In Episode 8, Anderson had to put down Maxwell due to him going all AGodAmI, as the Iscariot organization's duty meant destroying false gods like what Maxwell had become. [[IDidWhatIHadToDo He's not sorry for what he's done, just sorry he had to do it]]. He's more than a little upset, lamenting his young protege's corpse.
20	-->'''Anderson:''' ''(Solemnly)'' I'm not sorry for what I did, Maxwell... but I am sorry I had to do it.\
21	''[Cut to the past]''\
22	'''Anderson:''' And what has brought YOU to our sanctuary of love and brotherhood, my boy?\
23	'''Young Maxwell:''' I have a terrible guilt and rage inside me that can only be quelled by the blood and subjugation of the unclean!\
24	'''Anderson:''' Oh ho! You'll fight ''right'' in!\
25	''[Cut back to the present with Anderson sitting with Maxwell's head resting on his leg]''\
26	'''Anderson''': [[UsedToBeASweetKid You were a good boy, Maxwell]]... Shame you were such a shit man.
27	* The end of Episode 8 with Alucard and Anderson's final talk after Alucard kills Anderson, starting with Anderson saying "You stole my heart" line. They talk less like two men who'd been trying their damnedest to kill each other and more like old friends, one of whom is on his deathbed. Alucard actually seems genuinely upset that Anderson is dying. It's also set to ''[[https://youtu.be/uN1v5fAddHo Monster of God]]'' to really drive the tragedy home.
28	--> '''Anderson:''' It looks like you got what you always wanted, Alucard.\
29	'''Alucard:''' I didn't want ''this''...\
30	'''Anderson:''' Ye stole my heart.\
31	'''Alucard:''' ''(Voice breaking, crying blood)'' Ohhhh... fu-fuckin' come on man...!
32	** While it's strongly hinted at here, the source material makes it clear that the only way Alucard will be willing to die is if a ''human'' is the one to kill him - Anderson, having used the Nail [[SuperPoweredEvilSide to power up and become monstrous]], denied Dracula his wish after having found a WorthyOpponent. Takahata would later confirm that Anderson made himself the equivalent of Alucard by doing what he did but also threw away his humanity, which is exactly what Alucard ''did not'' want.
33	** At the end of the episode, Alucard's reaction when Walter remorselessly kills and then mocks Anderson before the latter could even speak his final words. Alucard ''snaps.''
34	---> '''Alucard''': '''''[[RageBreakingPoint WAAAAAAAAAAAAALTEEEEEEEEEER!!!]]'''''
35	* Speaking of Walter, there's his death in the finale, remarking how he died a traitor's death. Especially since unlike in the original where he managed to kill Doktor in the zeppelin before succumbing to his injuries and degenerating body, here he's unceremoniously shot in the gut from afar by Heinkel in revenge for Yumie's death the previous episode, left only to [[FaceDeathWithDignity accept his end as she lines up a second shot at his head]] and heavily implied he ''[[DeathSeeker intentionally]]'' let her do so since Alucard's death and his own betrayal/failure just robbed him of any desire to keep going.
36	-->'''Walter:''' Shot in the gut... slumped against a wall... and [[ItMakesSenseInContext executed by some crazy German Catholic bint quoting]] ''Film/KillBill''. Yes... [[RewardedAsATraitorDeserves A traitor's death.]]
37	** And then there's the look on Walter's face while fighting Alucard, when he realizes that, try as he might by any means conceivable, he will '''never''' able to kill him. It feeds into his HeelRealization mentioned above when it sinks in that he betrayed Hellsing for ''[[AllForNothing absolutely]]'' '''''[[AllForNothing no reason]]'''''.
38	---> '''The Major''': [[AlasPoorVillain Ah, poor Walter.]] Each second ticks his life down, all to grasp a victory zat never belonged to him. [[UnwittingPawn A piece of our puzzle]], ''[[TheChessmaster 300,708,917 pieces large.]]''
39	* The opening of Episode 9 has Integra's father dying and her running for her life. It's PlayedForLaughs, but the girl is clearly terrified, a far cry from how we know the badass leader of Hellsing.
40	** Arthur even dies with blood on his favorite pillow.
41	* Heinkel's reaction to Yumi's death, as she pounds the ground in fury, wails that [[SurvivorsGuilt she should have died alongside her]] and reveals that they were lovers.
42	* Integra's reaction to Alucard's 30-year DisneyDeath. She acts as if he is a deadbeat to disguise how much she genuinely misses him, and wishes he was back.
43	* To escape his Schrodinger-induced limbo, Alucard has to act as a psychologist for every single soul inside of himself. Then he has to do the same for his own soul. The tearjerker comes from how much guilt he's implied to have: confronting his own issues took him ten years,[[note]]For comparison: it took 20 years to solve ''3,7 million'' other people's issues. That's an average of less than three minutes per soul.[[/note]] and he mentions that he tried to kill himself during that time.
44	--> '''Integra''': Couldn't have you just kill [all the souls]?
45	--> '''Alucard''': Ah, I tried. Especially on ''me''.
46	* On top of that, when Alucard's own soul asks him "Are we a bad person?", what does Alucard say after his initial shocked silence? He brings up the 20,000 people he historically impaled. He didn't claim innocence; he didn't try to justify himself; he immediately confronted the fact that he ''is'' a "bad person". Granted, it's immediately followed up by his soul remarking about how [[DaddyIssues they were really mad with dad]] that day to which he agrees, but the impact isn't lost.
