Reading through some of the posts here, I find it funny that it seems to be all the good endings people cried over.
I'll try to give an accurate description of my feelings during each of the arcs (I have only done Emi, Hanako, and Lilly)
Emi - I didn't particularly feel sad during her plotline. She really hooked me into this game (as my first), because I thought this was gonna be some crappy dating sim. But when I spent hours on this game, and I am at her house with her mother, and the decision pops up, I wasn't sure what to do. As you know if you played Emi's plotline, either way you are kicked out, but since it was my first time, it really caught up to me that I messed up. I heartlessly clicked through to find out the sad ending, only to be overjoyed when I turned out to do the right thing. So my saddest part was probably the scene where he gets kicked out.
Hanako - I originally was aiming for her in the beginning, but I accidentally got into Emi''s. The second time, I got it right though, and I continued it though to heart. Nearing the end, I messed up twice (unknowingly), where you decide to ask her to the town or to relax the rest of the day (When Lilly goes on vacation). I didn't realize I made a bad decision, and when I decided later to ignore Lilly (Which didn't matter what I chose anyways, lol), I was shocked by the ending. I stood a little aghast, for a minute. I rushed to redo the whole thing, freaking out, and even when I got the happy ending, I still didn't feel right inside. I really wasn't fond of her arc, but I was shaky when I got one of the bad endings, and I feel that would be the scene.
Lilly - I figured this time I wouldn't mess up. It seemed simple enough. She seemed totally right for my personality, and I couldn't wait until I won with flying colors.
Except I didn't.
I decided to wave her off at the summerhouse, and even when telling her about the letter, I got the neutral ending. As soon as Akira told me about her returning, I didn't believe she would do it. But once at the Shanghai, I nearly cried. I, naturally, redid everything to win, but it didn't feel right, again. The idea that she would leave, without really discussing their relationship... Well, it tore at me. I think that even though I will go through the effort to try to feel happy again once I get a good ending, my first ending... Well, I can't imagine it any other way anymore. I genuinely hope that I can make it through the Rin and Shizune without screwing them up agian.
Sorry if I am going all emotional on you guys, first time actually posting. I just really want to get my thoughts out, because, like mentioned above, this game isn't really something to be shared with friends.
tl;dr - I feel the bad or neutral endings were the ones that made me tear up the most, not the good endings. And Emi's awesome.
