Tear Jerker / Ai Yori Aoshi

Go To

  • There are many moments in Ai Yori Aoshi that are TearJerkers, mainly of the Happy Tears kind.
  • The chapter with Aoi-Santa-san giving Kaoru a dream of being with his mother.
  • Kaoru finally introducing Aoi as his beloved fiancée to all their friends.
  • The episode "Moonlight". Tina lets everything out to a sleeping Kaoru, since she's leaving tomorrow, and couldn't bear to tell him it's supposed to be for good. She kisses him partway through. He then turns over and mutters Aoi's name. Tina now knows where Kaoru's love lies, though they've been hiding it out of necessity the whole time. Her expression says it all. The fact that she's still shown to love them both dearly despite this is Tina's Moment of Awesome. The manga issues that "follow" the anime just raise the respect meter more.
    Tina: "Kaoru ... I have just one favor to ask. Never ever stop loving Landlady-san... It's just a favor from the girl who can never be your girlfriend."
  • Manga Chapter 43 when Aoi/Santa-san gives Kaoru the dream of seeing his mother again.
