Tear Jerker / Sym-Bionic Titan

Go To

  • Tashy's farewell has caused several viewers to tear up, specially those who can relate to losing a pet.
  • Lance, as a child, still keeps habitually waking up at 2 AM after his father's death, as that's when he would always come home.
  • Lance appeared to have found a friend in Arthur, only for Arthur to abandon him in order to avoid Baron.
  • Ilana realizing that she misses home while furniture shopping in episode 2.
  • Ilana's Disney Death in "The Demon Within".
  • It's brief, but after Octus is unable to revive Lance and Ilana in "I Am Octus" he makes this genuinely pained expression. He doesn't say anything and it's a lot more expressive than he normally is, so it's really moving.
  • Newton and Kimmy's breakup. Made horribly horribly worse when you realize he was so distraught by making her cry that he was almost killed by the Monster of the Week and he did everything he could to get to the prom with her.
    • And one episode later, Octus' death. It was foreshadowed all throughout the episode, so everyone saw it coming...but then when it actually happened, it was still a punch to the gut that reduced everyone to tears.
