Hachiko: The True Story of a Loyal Dog by Pamela S. Turner

Its well known story, and I wanna cry even now, while typing this comment

Of course! Akame ga Kill! is a Japanese manga series written by Takahiro and illustrated by Tetsuya Tashiro. While it is known for being full of action and blood, it also packs an emotional punch that brings tears to my eyes.

So here are some moments from the manga that have evoked strong emotions: The Tragic Fall of Numa Seika

• Numa Seika, dubbed as the "Hero of the South", met a brutal end at the hands of Esdeath.

• Despite his brief appearance, his tragic downfall is very sad, especially considering how he once protected the Northern Tribe successfully before meeting such a grim fate.

Zanku's Sanity Lost:

• Zanku, an executioner, lost her sanity from killing others.

• Night Raid was contracted to stop her killing spree, and Akame carried out the merciless murder by slitting her throat.

• His death was tragic due to the circumstances that caused it, and it gave him peace after a life of madness.

Esdeath’s Death:

• Despite Esdeath's sadistic reputation, some fans were saddened by her death.

• Her background and the destruction of her tribe evoked sympathy, even though her fight cost the other Night Raid members their lives.

• Her complex character adds a layer of emotion to her death

those are all the sadnesses I experienced while reading the manga and watching the Akame Ga Kill anime

It’s a book that I’ve only read just recently. It’s a Japanese light novel called Brunhild the Dragonslayer.

Note : What I wrote below is based on the synopsis and what I've read.

The synopsis roughly goes like this, a human girl was washed up ashore on an island called “Eden” where a silver dragon acts as a guardian of the island. The island was repeatedly attacked by humans that wanted to claim it. When the dragon found the girl, He decides to take her in and raise her like his own daughter. A decade later the dragon’s life was taken when humans attacked the island. The girl was torn whether to avenge him or to forgive those that killed him, which was due to the teachings of the dragon, if she wanted to be reunited with the dragon, she must not hate others.

The story revolves around the relationship between a father and a daughter, be it biological or adoptive, and the wishes of what a father would want for his daughter.

The ending was a beautiful one for a lack of better word, the regrets, twists. It made me tear up at the end.

Lord of the Rings

All 3 books are absolutely incredible and made me cry on many occasions so I won't list them all because we could be sitting here for days. I think it says a lot about talent when even the Appendix has stories which make you at least sniff. Probably my favourite bit was in The Silmarillion though the story of Beren and Luthien.

For me it would have to be Anthem of the Heart this manga had such a beautiful story the main character is Jun Naruse and as a young girl she was very talkative but after seeing something she wasn't supposed to she ends up causing a rift in their family she then imagines a fairy egg that curses her by sealing her words so she won't hurt people again.
