Kimi ni Todoke/Tear Jerker

Everything About Fiction You Never Wanted to Know.


Kimi ni Todoke has regular, though never excessive, Tear Jerker moments.


  • All the little moments where Sawako makes friends and earns recognition by being herself, whereas a lesser story might require her to get dolled up or force herself to act happy.
  • Any time Sawako cries is bound to get you teary-eyed at the least.
  • Season 1, Episode 21,: Three words: "Comfort me, Ryu..."
  • The end of Season 2 when the Official Couple finally gets together.
  • Chapter 59, when Ayane tearfully realizes that, unlike Sawako and Chizuru, she has never really liked or dated anyone because of love.
    • Chizuru flat out refused to accept Ryu's feeling in his second confession.
  • Chapter 63 has the flashback of Ryu's family grieving over the death of his mother.
