×××HOLiC/Tear Jerker

• In xxxHolic, more than one person teared up when Himawari, while smiling trying not to cry, told Watanuki about her bad luck and said goodbye to him after causing a nearly fatal accident. Watanuki stopping her and telling her that he cares about her and doesn't want her to go away regardless of that made her cry after she left. The fact that she willingly took his scars is just icing on the cake.
  • I'm now tearing up at manga chapter 177, when Wakanuki sees the two Sakuras and the two Syaorans. And one of the Sakuras (his "mother") sees him, smiles and says "Don't worry, it'll be all right!"..
    • What really gets me about that part is that Watanuki doesn't remember her. He feels like he should know her, but any memory he had of her is gone. That look of desperation on his face as he tries to remember who she is just kills me.
  • Six words: "I'll die like this too. Alone."
    • Four more words: "I want to change!" Bonus points for being the only mini-arch with a distinctly happy ending.
  • SOMEONE had to have teared up a little at chapter 71 of the manga. Seriously
  • Oh, Jesus, and now there's chapter 181. With time beginning to move properly for Yuuko again, she's now dying, and insists to a despairing Watanuki that it's alright, because she was supposed to be dead long before he was even born. He screams at her that her belief that she's not supposed to exist is wrong, because for all he didn't believe in her in the beginning, she did change him for the better. And all she can do is smile and thank him for that. Crying, Watanuki says she can't go away because he hasn't granted her wish yet, as he promised. Yuuko says that her only wish is for him to go on existing. He promises to do this and to wait in the shop until she comes back, no matter how long it takes.
    • Thirteen words: "My wish... is for you to go on existing. That's all I want."
  • Ohgod, Chapter 184. Warning, massive spoilers.
