Angelic Layer/Tear Jerker


 * This troper doesn't see how anyone could watch Angelic Layer's last few episodes without crying. The way Misaki and Shuuko meet and talk and just communicate after such a long, awkward time of no communication whatsoever just leaves me a wreck.
 * That scene in the rain is just utterly heartbreaking.
 * And let's not forget the explosion of roses in their battle. That was just beautifully well done.
 * I just want to say, as the one who had to edit, subtitle and time the whole series, the last three were hard for me to do, because I couldn't READ the subtitles from crying so much.
 * Angelic Layer's 25th episode is a tearjerker the entire way through when The episode ends on a happy note and then makes you cry for joy. The show has a few other sad moments, but that episode takes the cake.
 * Beyond that, there was episode 16, which featured an absolutely straight use of Ill Girl and Dead Little Sister in the form of Sai Jounouchi's younger sister Rin.  To top it all off, we learn at the end of the episode that the secret to withstanding adversity is "To cry as much as you want to, when you need to cry."
