Saya no Uta/Tear Jerker

Everything About Fiction You Never Wanted to Know.


  • Saya no Uta. Due to Saya being an Eldritch Abomination and Fuminori's nightmarishly distorted senses, both of them are surrounded by people who they cannot or can barely tolerate interacting with. Both are completely alone in a hostile and alien world. They fall in love, and it forms a bond that is truly unbreakable. Even in the midst of all the Nightmare Fuel, Nausea Fuel, and Moral Event Horizon-crossing, they somehow manage to stay sympathetic characters. Of course, considering the genre, there's really only one way it can end. Bonus points for the True Ending's End of the World as We Know It being completely overshadowed by Saya's goodbye, even though said goodbye is what causes the End.
  • Yusuke killing his wife and child (especially the child, when she's walking upstairs...). I don't cry easily at books/movies/games, but I cried so hard during that.
  • The whole thing could be one big Tear Jerker. No one is safe and no one gets a good ending
