Contrast [[Cry Cute]], where crying makes a normally unsympathetic character more likable -- [[Tender Tears]] is part of a consistent sensitive character.

Line 33:
* Misaki from ''[[Junjou Romantica]]''. In the first episode he starts crying because his brother Takahiro insensitively announces his engagement to Akihiko who is in love with him (which Takahiro is unaware of). And this after Akihiko molested Misaki when he found out about his feelings for his brother, the boy is definitely sensitive.
* Subverted in ''[[Ouran High School Host Club]]''. We see Hikaru, Kaoru, Honey, and Tamaki are all able to cry on cue... until Haruhi finds they're using eye-drops. It's played straight in Tamaki's case, though--he doesn't need eye-drops to get the tears flowing.
* From ''[[To Aru Kagaku no Railgun (Manga)|To Aru Kagaku no Railgun]]'', [[Anti -Villain|Kiyama-sensei]] gets these going after {{spoiler|the Child Errors she spent most of her screen time trying to help finally wake up. [[Crowning Moment of Heartwarming|It is quite a sight]].}}
* [[The Messiah|Allen Walker]] of ''[[D Gray Man|D.Gray-Man]]''. Also [[Action Girl|Lenalee Lee]], whenever any of her [[Nakama]] die. D.Gray-man being the series [[Nightmare Fuel|it is]], however, it's hard to say if the same would still be true in less traumatic circumstances.
* Gau from ''[[Nabari no Ou]]'' cries when he meets Raikou for the first time, when Raikou tells him about his past, when he gets slashed by Raikou, when he intervenes in {{spoiler|Raikou and Yukimi}}'s fight, when he calls Yukimi on the cellphone, when {{spoiler|Raikou gets stabbed}}, etc, etc...
