*** There's an option to let Yosuke cry into chest if you selected the correct dialogue option earlier in his Social Link. Unlike with Rise, this does ''[[PseudoRomanticFriendship not]]'' lead to a RelationshipUpgrade. A piece of [[https://i.imgur.com/sGnOpmq.jpg promotional artwork]] for the [[Anime/Persona4TheAnimation anime]] seems to be the studio's take on this scene.

* ''Literature/SwordArtOnline'': Sinon does this to Kirito during the climax of the ''Gun Gale Online'' arc, as all of her emotional problems come to the surface and she simply breaks down. Kirito comforts her during this, but since the moment was captured during a digitally-televised online tournament, he feels a need to explain to his girlfriend that there were no romantic implications to this event (Asuna, for her part, is a little suspicious/jealous when she sees it but accepts Kirito's explanation).
