* In ''[[Final Fantasy XII (Video Game)|Final Fantasy XII]]: [[Revenant Wings]]'', after having spent most of the game opening up to you {{spoiler|and regaining his anima,}} when Llyud {{spoiler|performs a [[Heroic Sacrifice]], and takes an attack from Feolthanos meant for Vaan, although he survives, Llyud is striped of the anima he spent ''the whole game regaining''. He's just an emotionless shell again.}} What makes this ''worse'' however, is if you go an talk to Llyud on the Bridge, or in the Sky Saloon, with him only saying {{spoiler|that it "feels like a fire inside [of him] has gone", "words elude me", and the worst one of the lot: "..."}} Not only is it a [[Tear Jerker]], it's a pretty darn big [[Player Punch]] too.
** Earlier, there's the night where the party learns the truth about Velis, the man that they've been guarding since they became stranded, and who has been warming up to Penelo ever since they met. {{spoiler|He is [[Dead to Begin With|already dead]]}}. Not only that, but he used to be {{spoiler|the Judge of Wings' lover, and she personally turns him into Odin and makes him fight you}}. Just before the battle, Penelo breaks down, unable to bring herself to fight him, and at the end of the battle, the party can't bring themselves to put him out of his misery. {{spoiler|So Llyud, who has realized at this point that he is devoid of emotion, [[Shoot the Dog|does it himself]]}}. Even worse, after that, Penelo breaks down crying, and {{spoiler|Llyud says "I cannot even understand why you cry"}}.
* In ''[[Final Fantasy XII (Video Game)|Final Fantasy XII]]'', the scene that plays upon your return to Eruyt Village after {{spoiler|rescuing Mjrn}}. To sum up: {{spoiler|Mjrn, having seen the world outside of their home, begs her sister, the Viera leader Jote, to change their isolationist and essentially xenophobic ways. Fran, however, convinces Mjrn to stay so she'll never have to deal with the same pain and loneliness she went through by abandoning the Wood. She then asks Jote if the Wood hates her and, after speaking to it, Jote replies that it doesn't. Fran's reply before leaving is quite solemn: "A pleasant lie, that."}} This troper found those four words to be among the most heartbreaking he's ever seen in the series.
* {{spoiler|Vossler's}} [[Face Heel Turn]] means [[Player Punch|you have to fight him]], after which he is killed.
* The end of the Prologue, when {{spoiler|Reks calls out his brother's name before dying.}}
