Character Backstories

• Several of the characters that appear in the Super RWBY Universe have backstories that can be seen as quite saddening.
  • Nyx Shadow, a member of Team JINXY, lost her home to the Wario Bros in Gusty Gulch to a bet that her father lost. The Wario Bros forced them out of their home and blew it up behind their backs.
  • Xena Ayami, a member of Team JINXY, lost her home and family to war thanks to King Bob-omb. She gets a split personality disorder called Dark Xena/Yagami because of this.
  • Dark Xena/Yagami Ayami, a technical fifth member of Team JINX(Y), is a split personality born from Xena's trauma that lashed out at everything. She was afraid of disappearing and her actions were from the emotional and physical pain she has suffered over the years.
  • Jade Gadd, the leader of Team JINXY, lost her parents at a young age thanks to King Boo. She tried to get them back, but King Boo has other ideas.
  • Iris Icaria, a member of Team JINXY, left her home island out of shame and guilt due to her uncle, Kuro, being crippled by a Grimm called Amon. She has been training in preparation for defeating said Grimm in order to regain her honor and someday make amends with her cousin.
  • Mona Violeta, a member of Team MAJC, lived with a family friend who was a Faunus like her father. She didn't believe that Faunus prejudice was a real thing so, believing herself to be a Faunus, came out to her hometown about it, causing her to be exiled and forced to live in the harsh lands of Vacuo on her own. She took to living in a cave after killing the Grimm who stayed there until she met Camrin. It's hard not to feel sorry for her when she explains what happened in Super RWBY Sunshine after the others examine her pendant, which has a photo of her mother and father inside.
  • Anthony Haylard, the leader of Team MAJC, had a rough childhood with his father spending all of the money he made on creating a dust staff, leading him and his mother to have to fend for themselves. One night, Anthony stole the staff and took to a life of thievery to help sustain himself and his mother, and to exact revenge on the company that wronged him. Jacques didn't take too kindly to this, and sent countless teams of hunters after him for a bounty, dead or alive. One of them cost Anthony his left eye, which served as a constant reminder of his hatred for the SDC, driving his desire for revenge further.
  • Kokoro Kinokoshi, a member of Sea5ons, lost her father at such a very young age and suffered abuse from her alcoholic mother for several years in her hometown at Vacuo. One day, she got into a heated argument with her mother, which caused her to snap and say that she wished her mother died instead of her father. The following morning, she ran away from her hometown in Vacuo together with her pet cat, Yukina, and soon found refuge in the Mushroom Kingdom the day after the Shroob crisis was over. She hardly made contact with her mother ever since that day.
  • Oran Moss, an armadillo Faunus who was born in a mining village that was owned by the SDC where all Faunus were forced to mine the Dust from the mines. That was until one day, a giant King Taijitu started hanging around the mines, leading to the trio of overseers leaving the village to fend for itself, while using explosives to wake the Grimm up. As it started to eat the people in the village, Donovan showed up and drained Oran's parents of their life energy allowing them to get eaten. Leaving Oran the only one left in the village until Kala the Zarude showed up and took Oran with her to live in the wild, with him living in the wild to this very day.

• Ruby, Yang, Tai, and Qrow having a reunion with the ghost of Summer Rose who, for those unfamiliar with RWBY, died when Ruby and Yang were very young. The reunion brought tears to most who read the part. However, it gets even sadder when Summer tells Ruby and Yang not to go after the people responsible for her demise.

RWBY: DK 64

• Yang is gloomy during the second half of the story. The reason is because of her Aura being drained due to the malefactions of King K. Rool. She does get better at the end of the story.

  • It also appears to still have an effect on Rosalina, considering she's trying not to cry over the memory.
• Chapter 9 shows Rosalina's Storybook, AKA Rosalina's backstory. Child!Rosalina says this line that would make anyone cry.

  • Later, we see Ibuki comforting Rosalina after everyone leaves and telling her to let it all out, prompting Rosalina to cry on Ibuki's shoulder.

• Ruby is on the verge of giving up, saying it's all too much and it's been incredibly stressful. To make matters worse, Dimentio is taking advantage of this.
• Count Bleck breaks down in tears mid-laughter while Nastasia tries to convince him to stop the void.
• Ruby suffered through so much emotional pain during the 8th world. It is heartbreaking to see Ruby to the point of giving up. It got worse next chapter resulting in her becoming Chaos Ruby, leaving her with permanent damage much to the sadness of her friends and family.
  • Adding on to this, we see Ruby breaking down crying after trying to call for backup. To make matters worse, at the start of the 17th chapter, we see what happens to those who Ruby tried to call. Sothis and even Palutena feel helpless as they are at the mercy of the void.
• While it is also heartwarming, it's also kind of sad to see that Blumiere and Timpani leave their friends forever just so they can stop Dimentio's destruction.

RWBY: The Crown Tundra

• Calyrex explaining his backstory to the group and everyone feeling sorry for him.
• Weiss gets injured by both Seryu and Adam and Blake is reduced to tears and holding onto her friend dearly, showing how close Blake is with Weiss and hurt by the cruelty of the two enemies.

SPBRR: Fusion

• While Samus is desperately trying to get Blake revived, she mentions that she failed to save her allies who had fallen, and in tears, declares that she's not going to let another person die on her hands. While it is indeed heartwarming that Samus is desperately trying to save Blake... it's also sad that she feels a bit of regret about not saving her fellow bounty hunters or Adam.
• Seeing Blake go through very painful experiences and seeing her mentally and physically hurt during it is gut-punching. After a near-death experience with SA-X followed by a previous encounter with Nina in her Gamma form and Serris has caused Blake to snap and left her in a feral state. Ultimately a near-death encounter with SA-X and learning about there being 10 in total caused Blake to break and fall into utter despair. When the rest of the team finds her, she is reduced to a sobbing mess. Even Calyrex and her team trying to reach out to her doesn't help much.

SPBRR Promised Day

• Mukuro is clearly struggling with the fact that Junko murdered her in cold blood. All of her slaughterings are implied to be her holding back a mental breakdown over the fact.
• Sloth's origin is heartbreaking. Not only did the experiment render the soldier slower, not faster, but he was also made unfit for the military, even his own wife left him. This has left him with constant depression and the fact the Homunculi side even agreed that his life wasn't fair and asks the heroes to give him a Mercy Kill.
• Samus getting crippled by Bradley/Wrath is heartbreaking to see after getting so many injuries throughout her life, Bradley succeeded where all others have failed, even more serious than what both Ridley and Dark Samus have done. It is not going to be easy for her to recover from.
  • Becomes slightly subverted when it is discovered that the Metroid DNA in Samus can restore the damage to her spine so long as she continues to drain someone.

RWBY: A Ubiquitous End

• Just in case you needed more of a reason to pity Seryu, the story opens with some bullies tearing her teddy bear in half just because she was a Faunus.

Super RWBY 3D Land

• Tubeworm Siren keeping distance from her sisters due to an incident where Scylla hurt both her eldest and youngest sister.
• While the scene is Played for Laughs, Zapple feeling betrayed over Armor Baron tricking Shantae and Sky into wearing his entrapping armor is more than a little sad, especially since the Baron actually raised her.
• Next chapter reveals that her trust issues stemmed from a boy cheating on her with another woman, before dumping her and getting wed to the other woman. She ended up destroying the wedding in a rage and realizes that she killed her ex in the process. This also left her with a fear of falling in love again.
• Angler Fish Siren reveals how she got discriminated against by humans, to the point where she actually lost her eye from it.
• The ending of chapter 12. The heroes succeed in stopping the Devil from taking Ruby's soul, only for him to make off with Oran and Kala's souls. Ruby's anguished scream at the end really sells it.

• While the story ends on an overall heartwarming note, Morpho Knight appears before Summer, giving the readers a grim reminder that she won't be around forever. While she does manage to convince him to wait until after Tai and Rosalina's wedding, Summer's days left on Earth are still very much numbered.
  • Sure enough, Summer's final farewell is beyond tearjerking. No one wants to see her go, but they all know that she couldn't stay forever. Morpho Knight does allow her to say goodbye, but, if anything, that only makes it sadder as everyone gives their final goodbyes.

• Chapter 7 has Xena and Yagami breaking down upon realizing that Umber had been brainwashed by the Greater-Scope Villain of the story.
• In Chapter 9, the Fecto-possessed Esdeath presses Magnolia's Trauma Button by calling her "Foxface", which causes the poor little girl to be reduced into a traumatized sobbing mess and then fly into a state of near-unstoppable blind rage, which was exploited by Fecto as he took advantage of this moment by possessing her and making her turn against her friends under his control.

• Tropic Woods' needing to be Mercy Killed due to being unable to survive in the lava-filled Redgar Forbidden Lands.
• While it's been foreshadowed before, it's finally revealed why exactly Shadow is so fond of Logue - she reminds him of Maria. While this alone would be heartwarming, the fact the reveal is Shadow having a PTSD-fueled flashback to Maria's death makes it upsetting.

ATMC: Skyward Sword

• Chapter 4 and 5 reveals the tragic fate of Anya's biological parents.
• Chapter 5 reveals Weiss has been carrying a deep sense of guilt, fear, and helplessness over the fates of Team RWBY through the series, mainly with how much Ruby has been suffering. It has gotten to the point she hoped something bad would happen to her to give Ruby a break for once.

• Chapter 16 revels Chelsea is scared of her birth parents returning and killing her loved ones, causing the normal upbeat and cheerful Chelsea to break down in tears.
• Chapter 19 sees Ghirahim reveal Maki's status as the Night Raid traitor to the group. At first, Maki tries as hard as she can to deny it, only for Ghirahim to threaten to slit Anya's throat if she doesn't confess. And when she does, her voice breaks as she breaks down crying.

CFVY: Rise of the Mammalians

• It's revealed in the first chapter that, unlike with Mikan and Chiaki or Mondo and Chihiro, Leon and Sayaka never made up for her attempting to kill him, which lead to both of their deaths. While Leon jumping behind Mondo's back is Played for Laughs, it's still sad to realize that he's clearly scared to face her again.

• During their fight, Sienna is forced to see just how much of a monster she turned Adam into upon discovering that his goal for the attack on Toad Town was to kill Peach under the belief that she "forced" peace between Faunus and humans and refusing to accept any kind of peace that isn't Faunus ruling over humans.
• The scene where Byleth reveals Eggman had her under his thumb under the threat of incinerating her new family is both this and Nightmare Fuel depending on how you look at it. Thankfully, while she does reveal what happened, Sephiroth frees Esdeath who then destroys the power core for the incinerator, robbing Eggman of one of his advantages.
• Once the heroes set her free, Pyrrha reveals that she's been stuck under Eggman's control for two weeks and can only break down in Jaune's arms as she sobs out apologies.

RWBY: Wings Of Ruin

• Chapter 4 gives us a look at Pyrrha's mental state and the poor girl has completely crossed the Despair Event Horizon, with everything she did still weighing heavily on her and her now seeing metal constantly shifting and moving doesn't help. Her comment at the end of her segment about "wanting out of this hellhole" implies that worse may be coming... Chapter 5 has Pyrrha getting a bottle of alcohol from a store in Toad Town and walking out of the place into the horizon. Then, in Chapter 6, at Pyrrha's house, Ezra phases through Pyrrha's locked bedroom door and sees the room empty, window open, the doorknob to her closet melted off and her armor and weapons still there and some kind of note on a scroll. Chapter 7 has Ezra and Athena visiting the rest of JNR and discovering Pyrrha went by herself to Yoshi Falls much to Nora and Ezra's horror. Thank goodness for King Dedede, plus the reveal that Pyrrha wasn't even considering suicide in the first place.

• This exchange between Sage and Eggman:
  Dr. Eggman: Commendable, but what about finding me a way out of this digital dimension?
  Sage: I have run one million, seven hundred thousand and fifty simulations. There is no scenario to safely remove you all from Cyberspace.
  Dr. Eggman: Unacceptable! Keep looking! Make it your number one priority!

  Sage: But… keeping you all safe is my priority…
• As it turns out, not even Eggman knew about the nuke in Winter's Dusk, he just wanted to preserve Argus in Chromium.

• Chapter 193 ends with it being revealed that Super RWBY Chibi is ending with its 200th chapter in a Shout-Out to Brawl in the Family with Ruby and Weiss's reactions being the exact same as Kirby and Adeline's reactions from World 8-4 which is also what the final section is also called.
• Chibi itself coming to an end with its final chapter being the gang in the Olympics, Scoop Swoop taking a picture of everyone, Sea5ons performing one last song in tribute, Ruby telling everyone thank you, Sarge announcing Super RWBY PSA, and Ruby saying farewell from everyone, good guys, bad guys and those who haven't shown up yet.

  • After getting visions of Dark Yang and Blake dying, Dark Ruby does everything in her power to save them, only for both to still meet their canonical fates anyways. It gets even worse once Dark Weiss starts blaming her for it, even when Dark Ruby tries to explain the truth. And even worse is the dialogue during the Sunshine adaptation when Dark Ruby tries to tell Dark Blake not to go into Mount Corona due to getting a vision of Dark Blake's death:
  Dark Blake: Okay, shut up. Just… shut up. You have been acting extremely paranoid ever since you fought Ruby for the first time and it's been just "Vision this" and "Vision that"... and I'm sick of it.
  * shoves the spray can into Dark Ruby's hands.*
  Dark Blake: I'm leaving this team. If I stay with you a second longer and hear another damnable "vision", I'm going to scream. Tell Dark Weiss and Meta I said goodbye.
  * Walks off, flipping Dark Ruby off along the way.*
  Dark Ruby: W-wait! You can't just leave us just like that!
  Dark Blake: Watch me. (vanishes as Dark Ruby yells in frustration)
  • This whole chapter could be considered a massive tear jerker, as it shows that, under different circumstances, Dark Ruby could have gone down the path of Dark Pit and become a good guy, only to instead slip deeper into her own bloodlust, insanity and rage at her light counterpart.
• Chapter 19 starts with Xena being launched into a massive snowbank in the Arctic tundra due to a Bob-omb telling King Bob-omb that if the latter shoots Xena into Toad Town, she may survive and keep coming after King Bob-omb. After Xena wakes up and hauls herself out, she wanders around, slowly becoming more and more disoriented until she outright faints. Luckily, Esdeath found her but due to how long Xena was in the cold, she got severe frostbite and Esdeath had to use her semblance to replace Xena's hands, feet and part of her ears with ice.
• Chapter 21 has several.
