He Will Not Cry, So I Cry for Him: Difference between revisions

Line 27:

* In [[Spiral]], at his mother's funeral, a young [[The Stoic|Eyes]] asked that his best friend Kanone do this for him from then on; Kanone promisesd. (Though he's never shown to do it on-screen, he's still largely emotional enough for the two of them.)

* In the [[Yu-Gi-Oh!]] manga, Shadi cries for the mummies in a museum, due to his belief that they suffer a [[Fate Worse Than Death]].

* During one point in ''[[Turn a Gundam (Anime)|Turn a Gundam]]'', after Diana and Kihel have switched identities, "Diana" and her courtiers visit the gravesite of Kihel's father. Though she would very well like to grieve, the ruse -though initially only meant for fun- would be exposed and the relations between humans and the moonrace could break down, and so "Kihel" instead cries passionately in the stead of the original.

* In ''[[S-Cry-ed]]'', after {{spoiler|Kimishima}} dies, Kazuma shows a face of stoic acceptance, going on about how he's [[The Woobie|used to pain, loss, abandonment]] and all that stuff... but his [[Morality Pet]], Kaname, has other thought.

{{quote|'''Kaname''': You're lying! You're sad too! Really sad! So I'll cry. I'll cry for you, too.}}

* A variant occurs in ''[[Fire Emblem]]'': Path of Radiance. After {{spoiler|Ike's father Greil dies}}, [[The Hero|Ike]] tells [[White Magician Girl|Rhys]] a story {{spoiler|Greil used to tell him}} about how the more tears are shed for someone, the more blessings they receive in the afterlife. Being [[The Stoic]], Ike finds himself unable to cry, so he asks Rhys to cry in his place.

** In ''[[Fire Emblem Elibe|Fire Emblem 7]]'', right before the final battle Lyn cries in place of Hector for his {{spoiler|recently deceased older brother Uther}}, in a [[Shout-Out]] to an earlier scene in which Hector tells her about {{spoiler|how he tried to cry when his and Uther's parents died, but he simply was unable to.}}.

** Another variant occurs in ''Sacred Stones'' if you take Eirika's path. When it becomes clear beyond any shadow of doubt that {{spoiler|Lyon cannot be saved}}, Ephraim tells Eirika that it's all right to cry, and to cry for him as well.
