* [[Panty and Stocking With Garterbelt (Anime)|Panty and Stocking With Garterbelt]] has one, [[Gag Series|surprisingly]]. In ''Ghost: the Phantom of Daten City'', Stocking [[Love At First Sight|falls]] head-over-heels in love with a Ghost. [[What Does She See in Him?|A rude, lazy, disgusting ghost who keeps trying to get rid of her, even though she insists they're meant to be together.]] When she thinks her being an angel might be getting in the way of their relationship, she turns her back on Heaven and tries to run away with him. Panty tries to put a stop to it, but the Ghost interrupts her to [[Jerk With a Heart of Gold|propose to Stocking]]. {{spoiler|Stocking accepts, and...he [[Ascend to A Higher Plane of Existence|vanishes]], because it turns out he couldn't pass on until he found love.}} The shot of Stocking standing there in the snow while the church bells ringing is incredibly depressing, not to mention seeing [[Tragic Keepsake|the engagement ring]] in her room.
* If you follow the [[Wild Mass Guessing]] theory that the end credits show how Panty and Stocking's mortal selves died, they could be one, despite the happy smiles of the bobble-headed chibi characters. The ending credits show them being attacked by a monster, strapped under a descending circular saw, and attacked by vultures in the desert, before ascending to Heaven, all to the tune of Mitsunori Ikeda's "Fallen Angel", a tear-jerking song in itself.
* The [[Shoot the Shaggy Dog]] moment at the end of ''Pulp Addiction'' counts in typical PSG fashion.
* The fact that the creator has left [[Gainax]] to make his own studio, marks as a [[Tear Jerker]] of itself. Combined with the fact of [[Medaka Box|What GAINAX makes]] [[So Okay
