His niece has a more tragic one.

I gotta admit I felt bad for Kariya througout the show but he had the most badass servant. Just saying famalam

I thought from the thumbnail it was the cop from samurai flamenco.

Kek. Fuck off back to >>>/tumblr/

No but people are overly harsh to him. He had a shitty upbringing and brokenness to him that drove his actions. No normal person would do the shit he did.

Same thing with Kerry, he hopes to a childish dream since he's been messed up since childhood. And the same goes with his son.

he had a hard life

>>145104353
Yeah, he 'died' inside on the day of the fire and became psychologically screwed up. Then adopted his adopted father's childish dream as his meaning in life.

He is profoundly screwed up.

>>145104442
Oh please. No amount of suffering can make you look miserable when you have an Onee-chan like his.

>>145102743
He got friendzoned and assblasted because the one who "stole his love" was better than him in every way. What's tragic about that?

Korosensei. He was denstined to blow up and needed his students to kill him before that

>>145104623
He died for Sakura though. He's also the biggest cuck in anime history, that counts as tragic right?

>>145104809
Sakura wasn't even his main goal, killing Tokiomi and taking his place was, so I can't muster much to feel sorry for him.

>>145104623
He ran away to save her from a misery life and death in his household. Of course he's envious of Tokiomi living the happy life with her that he wished he could have had, but what got him is Tokiomi really seemed like an asshole who gave his daughter to the same piece of shit that Kariya wanted to keep Aoi away from because mage shit.

Irony is a big thing in tragedy senpai.

Every single image of him from TDA makes me feel bad.

At least he got his waifu and harem in the end

who's gonna post it first?

>>145105133
Not me

>>145104919
>taking his place
You realize he knows the worms will kill him after a few months right? He started with semi-noble goals, he just went nuts after the worms started eating his brains.

>>145105133
You do it.

Johnny

No one could understand how DEEP and COMPLEX he was in his oh-so-original self-pity~

>>145102743
He was seriously just retarded. Had no powers, then entered a war with borrowed disgusting powers that would kill him in a year instead of just fucking running away with Rin, Sakura was fucked either way. Then in the actual war he was the biggest jobber in it all, did nothing clever whatsoever and eventually got himself killed before the crest worms even consumed him. Oh yeah, then he killed his waifu that had children with another man since way back anyway.

Retarded fuck. All his own fault.

>>145105330
Right, his waifu didn't even die, forgot about that, she only became retarded.

>>145105166
Still doesn't change he planned on taking Tokiomi's place, being Aoi's love, and that Sakura wasn't his main goal, she was just his excuse.

Funny how UBW anime tried to make it look like HS Emiya forgive himself when that will never fucking happen.

Just fuck my afterlife for eternity in every possible parallel universe familia.

>>145105166
Retards don't understand the dream sequence before he died was a delusion, based on what he yearned for but could never have. At most he wanted to prove himself a better man than Tokiomi, and it's dumb of him given the time and circumstancesa. But Matou household doesn't produce happy, mentally stable individuals.

>>145105536
This. The worst part is that there is literally no way to escape from his eternal suffering. I don't blame him for trying to kill Shirou, I would too. And that wouldn't even save himself, just a parallel version of himself.

I feel so bad for Archer that sometimes I try to force a headcanon that the Shirou in RN Last Episode is Archer, and he somehow escaped his fate. But I know it's not true. I just really want it to be true.

>>145105887
>I feel so bad for Archer that sometimes I try to force a headcanon that the Shirou in RN Last Episode is Archer
Glad I'm not alone in this 2bh.

I wouldn't be able to move on otherwise.

>>145105887
Who knows, maybe since Shirou isn't going to become like Archer anymore HS Shirou is no longer stuck being a Counter Guardian? It's possible i-isn't it guys?

Kaiji

>>145105887
Ha, I just want Archer to be happy ;_;

I watched the anime before playing the VN and the reveal in the anime got me anyway, but I was happy he found some peace at the end at least. I then played the VN and realised the real Emiya would forever be stuck wallowing in his misery, regretted it straight away.

A night sky full of cries

is Oedipus an anime character?

>>145105887

Playing Grand Order makes me happy because you can let Archer be a true hero of justice.

>>145106415
atleast he canon fucked yin

>>145106581
As long as it's in moonspeak, I will never play it.

I will however, fap furiously to the top tier female character designs

When I rolled Emiya I was extremely happy. I know he's shit, but that only makes me think "man Emiya sure is shit but he tries his best anyways".

Bond level 6 right now.

>>145107350
He wants to save people and relish their happiness. Instead he's just the world's janitor.

Chouji Suitengu from Speed Grapher had the most over the top tragic story I could think of.

>he becomes a child soldier and then loses all four limbs
>when he meets his sister again she's a mind broken where who he kills to put out of her misery
>the guy responsible for his fate is now prime minister of Japan so he can't get revenge

>What about the top-tier female character voices?

Didn't even need to hover over the embed to know this was going to be a Shuten Douji post,

>>145104442
The entire world conspired to make him suffer.

>>145107350
He wants to save people, so he made a deal where he'd be able to save everyone. Instead, whenever's he's sent out on the field, it's to pretty much nuke everything/kill everyone no survivors style. For someone who wanted to save, to see other's smile, killing, even hurting others is pretty much torturing him every moment he exists.

>>145107350
He blames himself for making the choice to be a guardian. He thinks that his own foolish ideals led him to making that choice. It's a case of good intentions, but poor execution. UBW Shirou finds a way to keep his ideals, but not make that bad decision.

>>145107224
It's so surprising that she voices Okita. Someone should edit Shuten's voice over Okita's My Room lines.

>>145109006
In the anime, when he makes the contract, he even says, "I'll do it, so that no one else ever has to cry".

He then has to make everyone he sees suffer.

Wow he got shafted.

Almost seems like cheating posting characters from Texhnolyze.

>>145108447
this anime is terrible and the only satisfying bits are the cliche and obvious plot twists
plus the guy is a fucking twit so its hard to sympathize with his suffering
the anime is trying desperately to highlight that actually getting hurt is really painful but it's so poorly executed that it doesn't convey it in a meaningful way

>>145109097
Not only that, but what happened that lead to him becoming a Counter Guardian was explained by Nasu. He evacuates the power plant and saves everyone, but he's dying of radiation poisoning. Instead of saving himself, he makes a deal to become a Counter Guardian and save everyone else.
That, plus the fact that he was executed by his own friend and comrade, just makes his life fucking suck.

Doesn't make up for his smug though.

Emiya Archer's life is much more tragic than Kiritsugu and Kariya combined
