Manly Tears: Difference between revisions

Line 133:

** Considerably more stoic in the anime version than in the manga, in fact; in the anime he really only seems to have one expression.

* In the final episode of ''[[Death Note]]'', {{spoiler|Matsuda goes absolutely berserk and shoots Light four times after it's revealed he is Kira, all with tears running down his face}}.

* [[Played for Laughs|Parodied extensively]] in ''[[Ranma ~~One Half~~]]'', usually when a character pulls off some sort of (unwilling!) sacrifice and the others [[Converse with the Unconscious|gather over his unconscious body to thank him for it]], to his immense annoyance.

* [[Played for Laughs|Parodied extensively]] in ''[[Ranma ½]]'', usually when a character pulls off some sort of (unwilling!) sacrifice and the others [[Converse with the Unconscious|gather over his unconscious body to thank him for it]], to his immense annoyance.

** Played for drama when {{spoiler|Akane is thought to be dead.}} You see a single tear slide off Ranma's cheek and onto hers, before he starts crying harder and screams her name out of anguish.

* [[Umineko no Naku Koro ni|Battler]] does this a lot from the first arc on. [[A Fate Worse Than Death|It's pretty hard to blame him]], and part of the draw of the series is watching him [[Break the Cutie|be tortured way past the point he should have gone nuts]] [[Determinator|and yet always in the end manage to pull himself together and keep going]].
