ThunderCats (2011 series)/Tear Jerker: Difference between revisions

* The entirety of "Song of the Petalars":

** The adorable baby Petalar being welcomed into the world, the wizened elder dissolving into wind-blown leaves the next.

** "Yes, my friend. Many adventures I hope." Lion-O had learned {{spoiler|the Petalars live for only one day}}. He's got this bittersweet grin and sad realization in his voice that just...(sniff)

** Emrick's [[Rousing Speech]] to the peaceful Petalars: "Let this day be sung about by our people for ages to come!" Remembering, of course, that {{spoiler|a Petalar lifetime lasts roughly a day.}} And then {{spoiler|his death and funeral, in Lion-O's hands, with no regrets.}}. And the Petalars' ''singing''. And the kittens ''cry!'' And then they hit us with a [[Really Dead Montage]] as well.

* The ending to "The Soul Sever". The Soul Sever loses the souls of his wife and children, despite dedicating most of his life to saving them, reducing him (mind you, he's a 'robot' at this point) to tears. By the very end of the episode he's left alone in his broken down base, holding the tiny broken down body of an insectoid robot. To make things worse, the way his family leaves is rather unceremonious too. They don't re-materialize to give their last goodbyes, or even say whether they really wanted to pass on at all, they just float up into the sky while The Soul Sever [[Big No|cries out in anguish after them]].
