Some characters look like they're always ready to cry. In fact, they probably are and burst into tears on a regular basis. Sometimes, they will try to keep their emotions inside, but ultimately fail. One small incident and they are crying. It is possible for anything to cause them to cry, but it is most often a harsh insult directed at them. There may be a few reasons for this behavior. They might just be super sensitive and emotional by nature. There might have been something in their past such as emotional abuse from peers or some other form of Break the Cutie that caused them to be this way. Jerkass characters such as The Bully will most likely try to make them cry, in which case the character may eventually force themselves to become desensitized towards insults. In a Four-Temperament Ensemble, this person is melancholic. Very, very melancholic. This can go several ways; making the audience sympathetic, comedic exaggeration of realistic people, or triggering a sense of protectiveness. A Drama Queen tries to invoke sympathy but often ends up creating Wangst. Comedic examples are often the Butt-Monkey, as they are easy and amusing to abuse. Moe characters, such as the "Sad Girl In Snow", often prompt feelings of protectiveness both In-Universe and in audiences. Most often female, though it can also be male (and is usually Played for Laughs if so). With male examples, this tends to be a sign of weakness, immaturity, or femininity, although it may also occur with an Emotional Bruiser who is prone to Manly Tears. May overlap with Shrinking Violet, a character who is shy and insecure, or Annoyingly Repetitive Child if they're a kid and they annoy others by crying multiple times in a row. Compare Cute Clumsy Girl, a similar character whose "flaw" is played for cuteness. Contrast Hair-Trigger Temper which is about characters being prone to anger. Compare Can't Take Criticism if the character is sensitive to criticism. See also The Eeyore, Broken Bird, and Nervous Wreck. |

Violet Evergarden has the titular Violet. While she's initially very stoic due being unable to express her emotions properly, as she goes through Character Development she becomes very prone to tearing up, particularly in the anime adaptation where she cries a lot. Especially in the last half of the first season, to the point that it's practically a Once an Episode occurence. | |

Nature Cat: Despite being enthusiastic and determined, Nature Cat is also very emotional, in which he cries a lot. Such examples include whenever he begins to lose hope, or lose something he loves, he will most likely cry at the drop of a hat. note Or whenever he's having some happy moments, well... he's just sweet. His best friend Hal also tends to cry many times due to him being very sensitive, yet he's also very kind and innocent. In both cases, their friends stick up to them and help them resolve their problems. | |

Reiko Osumi from The Unforgiving Flowers Blossom in the Dead of Night cries Tender Tears even while smiling, befitting her Pollyanna nature, and is as gentle as can be, which unfortunately makes the poor girl an easy target for all the bullies around her. The usual gentle personality associated with this trope, however, is subverted as it's a cover; she is, in actuality, The Corrupter, Alpha Bitch, and Big Bad of the series — her tears are The Corruption turning kids into bullies. | |

While Misfile's Ash isn't a particularly impressive example of the trope, one of the things he most resents about the Gender Swap is the increased hormones making him more prone to emotional outbursts, usually taking the form of tears of frustration/anger. Never Played for Laughs. | |

According to one of his less-effectual titles in Yggdra Unison, Nessiah, despite his status as the local Magnificent Bastard, cries very easily when hurt or frustrated. If the player's performance is substandard, this happens often enough that his enemies start to mock him for being childish, and his subordinates have to devote a lot of time to taking care of him. As Nessiah's social skills are strange at best, he never really becomes cognizant of the burden he's putting on them. | |

Stand Still, Stay Silent: While it has yet to be actually shown on-panel, there is plenty of evidence towards Onni being this. He's implied to have spent the better part of a trip crying, and a scene has a character guessing he's about to burst into tears. Onni also has a Brutal Honesty prone cousin who, when someone else randomly wonders what Onni could be currently doing, answers "crying". | |

Kellen is a male example from the Spellslinger Series who cries when he's afraid (which is often), cries when he's happy, and cries after every battle or near death experience because of the adrenaline rush. A couple characters give him guff over this, but otherwise it is presented in a sympathetic light. | |

Shinji from Neon Genesis Evangelion could be considered a rare serious male example. While he may not fit into the American standards of male attractiveness, he is stated to be attractive in-universe, and, thanks to deeply-rooted self-esteem issues and having the pleasure of witnessing his mother turn to goo at an early age, he's rather insecure, delicate, and all too easy to upset with just a few words, particularly in the prologue arc, where he rarely made it through an episode without a Sparkling Stream of Tears. | |

Futari wa Pretty Cure gives us a rare villainous example in Regine, who seems to be in a perpetual state of about-to-cry when in her civilian form. She's very soft-spoken, and when repeatedly asked to repeat what she said because they couldn't hear her, she'll suddenly yell and cause everyone in the room to jump. All of these traits melt away whenever she assumes her true form, however. | |

In Beth Ellen's own book, The Long Secret, we learn that Beth Ellen cries in private because her grandmother has taught her that's what a Proper Lady does. But she has a crying fit during a sleepover after her Rich Bitch mother returns — and Harriet gently takes her hand and holds it until she's through. | |

Enju Aihara from Black Bullet is a sweet, kind-hearted 10-year-old girl and a cursed child who, despite being treated like trash for being born with the Gastrea virus in her body like most cursed children, always maintains a sunny disposition. Despite this, one flaw of her character is she's a very sensitive person who is prone to breaking down in tears easily. It's highly implied that if Enju were to find out that she'll eventually die or turn into a Gastrea monster, this would be enough to completely break her forever. This mainly applies to her character in the anime and manga adaptations; the original light novels portray Enju more as an emotionally independent young girl who's Wise Beyond Their Years. | |

Who Framed Roger Rabbit: Roger Rabbit is quite an emotional fellow, which is best demonstrated when his wife Jessica supposedly cheats on him with Marvin Acme and when Eddie tells him about his tragic backstory in which his brother got killed by a toon. Despite his generally cartoonish behavior, he is nonetheless another male example that isn't Played for Laughs. | |

Little Miss Shy of Mr. Men fame is such a Shrinking Violet that if anyone upsets her, she'll burst into tears. Notable examples are in the TV episode "Mr. Impossible's Lesson" note In which she broke down in tears after Mr. Uppity yelled at her. and in Little Miss Magic's story note Where she wept about being tickled by Mr. Tickle. Little Miss Tiny is the runner up behind Little Miss Shy as the biggest crybaby in Misterland. She cries over being lonely, being trapped in Mr. Mean's house, about rain dropping on her (In the book of the 90s cartoon episode "An Unforgettable Sunday for Little Miss Tiny"), when Mr. Rude insults her, when an ogre steals her lollipop, when she falls and hurts herself (In the Sanrio version of Little Miss Hug's story), when her thimble goes missing and when Christmas is nearly ruined by Mr. Grumpy resulting in everybody else being upset. |

Peppa Pig: The titular character's little brother George is a male example of this trope, which is justified because he's a toddler, and crying is one way toddlers communicate. Whenever he cries, his tears shoot out of his eyes like a water pistol. Same thing goes for Richard, Edmund, Zuzu, Zaza, and Baby Alexander. Here's a list of the instances where someone cries |

Devilman and DEVILMAN crybaby has one of the most famous male examples: before becoming Devilman, Akira Fudo was prone to bursting into tears at the slightest provocation. It is stated, however, that he only cries for others because he is so empathetic, and it is this compassion that allows him to resist the demon Amon's influence and retain his humanity after being merged with him. Near the end of the story, after Miki's murder, Akira states that he has no more tears to shed. Not long after, Ryo Asuka/Satan kills him in battle, the main source of his power lost with Miki's death. | |

Daylen Namaran in Shadow of the Conqueror is a male example played seriously, largely because of his endless guilt, though there's also an element of immaturity to it, as he's a self-admitted Psychopathic Manchild. If he cried any more often, everyone would be sailing across an endless ocean instead of an endless sky, and the chance of showers increases exponentially when Lyrah is nearby or on his mind, sometimes to the point of putting him into an Angst Coma. In keeping with the intense nature of the story, all of this is Played for Drama. | |

Steven Universe: The titular character apparently can't cry on command, but tears up easily: Pearl gives Steven a run for his money, with Peridot even calling her out on her "spontaneous singing; crying; singing while crying." (To be fair, she has some pretty good reasons.) Blue Diamond is quite emotionally unstable, unintentionally harmful to those she loves (mainly Yellow Diamond), and extremely self-observed. Grieving certainly only highlighted these features in her, and at this point, the only Gem who could've opened her eyes to it (Yellow) doesn't do so because she's afraid of breaking Blue even further. Steven's favorite TV show is Crying Breakfast Friends, which is all about a bunch of anthropomorphic breakfast foods who cry constantly. Other characters, particularly Steven's father, don't see the appeal of a show about characters who cry all the time. |

Seinfeld In the episode "The Understudy," Jerry's girlfriend cries at almost anything from dropping a hot dog to her untied shoelace. However, she doesn't cry when her grandmother dies. Both George and Elaine regularly bust into tears whenever something upsets them. One example with the former, George drives himself to tears when he tries to take the nickname "T-Bone" back from a coworker who was given the same nickname, while with the latter, Elaine is banned from a nail salon and actually wanders the streets at night in the rain bawling her eyes out about it. |

It gets to the point where: a) Kira himself swears not to cry again, b) he's told it's fine and good to cry by All-Loving Hero Lacus Clyne, and c) the spirit of his dead girlfriend Flay gently tells him at the end he doesn't have to cry anymore, because she'll truly protect him. He takes it to the other extreme in the sequel by not crying once. | |

The Loud House: Several characters have a tendency to cry at the drop of a hat: Lori Loud is the firstborn of the Loud children, but she has a tendency to dissolve into Inelegant Blubbering when she's lonely, or when she's simply had a bad day. Lily Loud is a Cheerful Child, but there are times when she gets upset and cries. She can even make herself cry on command. Justified in her case, as she is a baby. Lynn Loud Sr., the father of the Loud children, is a male example that isn't always played for laughs. As a matter of fact, it is implied that this trope runs in the family, as his father Leonard is just as prone to tears as he is, and it is implied that Lori got this trait from Lynn Sr. in turn. Bobby Santiago, Lori's boyfriend, is a Kindhearted Simpleton, and thus is also a male example that isn't always played for laughs. TÃa Frida also cries easily, often bordering on Ocular Gushers. |

Rare male example from Heat Guy J in the form of Clair Leonelli, when he was young. (Probably because as Overlord Jr., he didn't have any friends to play with, and his dad was abusing him.) This endears him to then-12-year-old Giovanni, who promises to protect him forever. | |

My Hero Academia: Izuku Midoriya can and will start crying, oftentimes violently, due to any and every emotion. He gets it from his mother. "Ordinary Woman", the giant mutant civilian, appears to be this as she cries in both chapters where she plays a major role — the first time from being on the violent end of Fantastic Racism, and the other being Tears of Joy when reuiniting with Izuku outside U.A. She's even depicted as tearing up in her vol. 32 colored illustration. |

Cars and Cars 2: Mater gets very upset over every little thing. He's a very sensitive person and there were signs that he got upset in the first film but he showed more emotions in the second film. He literally got very depressed after McQueen fired him from being a pit crew chief and felt guilty about and decided to go home. When others make Mater cry or upset, it's considered an extreme act of cruelty because he is super sweet and he has special needs. He's like a child. He's a very caring helpful person whose purpose in life is to serve others out of kindness and love and to see him upset about any little thing is just extremely devastating. Even though we are supposed to laugh with Mater, he is definitely a person who is emotional enough to not be Played for Laughs. | |

Believe it or not, there are lots of female users (and some male users) on DeviantArt, Discord, Reddit, Tumblr, Twitter / X, YouTube, and other social media sites who are prone to crying a lot, no matter what they are feeling or something terrible that happens on them, and this is often evidenced by them leaving some kind of crying emoticon or emoji (especially the frequently-used Loudly Crying emoji) in their posts or comments. | |

Princess Shirahoshi from One Piece doesn't just look like she would burst into tears from something trivial like being awakened from a nap — she actually does. She would also cry if someone yells at her, as Luffy was the first person to do so, because no one ever yelled at her before. She has an excuse though, having watched her mother die and then forced to spend 10 years locked up in a tower due to death threats in the form of giant flying axes that can home in on her. She gets a little better after making some friends, though. | |

The Brady Bunch: Marcia is by far the biggest crybaby of the Brady siblings. She cries when she doesn't get to go on a family ski trip, gets kicked out of a play, is rejected by a potential date to a school dance (and then several years later, after another date rejects her), is treated rudely by her siblings while reading her campaign speech for student body president, when she wilts under pressure during her driving test, when she has to wear braces... she just has frail nerves. As an adult, Marcia wells up when she is unable to find work as an adult and after realizing she's humiliated her family at a ribbon-cutting for one of Mike's office complex projects. | |

Part of the difficulty in finding someone to marry her off to was picking a man who wouldn't get her going again. | |

Rugrats: All of the babies are this to some extent, justified with all of them because they are babies. Tommy Pickles may be a fearless, adventurous, cheerful and happy-go-lucky leader, but there are a lot of episodes where he cries, and it is heavily justified as he is a baby His best friend Chuckie Finster also cries a lot due to him being very shy and sensitive, though not to Tommy's extent. Angelica Pickles cries a lot, mostly when things don't go her way. Susie Carmichael started this way in her first appearance though she grows out of this in later episodes to make her a good foil towards Angelica. Dill Pickles, being the youngest, is not above crying, especially when he's upset. Phil & Lil also often cry, usually with Tommy & Chuckie. |

CLANNAD: Nagisa is a delicate Shrinking Violet who can get disappointed or distressed at the drop of a hat. Usually it's when she feels guilty or something goes wrong. She has such a fragile body that it makes her all the more sympathetic. Sanae, the mother of Nagisa, is another example. She always bursts into tears when anyone (namely her husband) talks smack over the subpar bread she makes. This is usually Played for Laughs, but becomes serious in ~After Story~ after Nagisa's death. Kotomi is more or less exempt from Tomoya's normal teasing due to her reaction of starting to tear up and ask if someone is a bully when feeling at all threatened. Naturally, learning to deal with Kyou takes her a little while. |

Gumball himself, though not as much as Darwin, can also get easily upset whenever things go wrong for him, particularly in the first season. Richard, the father of Gumball, Darwin, and Anais. Compared to his more headstrong wife, he is quite sentimental, timid, and childlike. |

Miki Koishikawa from Marmalade Boy. Despite doing her best to be a normal girl, she has very low self-esteem issues and rarely goes three episodes straight without shedding tears. She has legitimate reasons, like opposing her parent's plan to divorce and re-marry, and being too stressed to choose which boy she likes, but then some moments can get ridiculous, such as realizing that she doesn't know anything about the boy she likes despite living with him, and then being too paranoid and jealous when she doesn't see him on Valentine's Day until later that night. | |

Chihiro in Tamayura. What makes it particularly cute is that she's actually crying out of compassion for her friend Fuu (the protagonist) whose father died some time ago.

SpongeBob SquarePants is a male example of this that isn't always Played for Laughs. In fact, making SpongeBob cry is considered a gross act of cruelty, and whoever is responsible for hurting his feelings almost immediately gets scolded by whoever happens to witness it, or just feels guilty. It really doesn't take very much to make him cry, either, as it got more pronounced in the later seasons, due to Flanderization. | |

Danganronpa 2: Goodbye Despair has Mikan Tsumiki, who is so timid and insecure she can barely hold a conversation without bursting into tears or having a meltdown. This is Played for Drama, as Mikan has been so heavily bullied throughout her life that she instantly suspects anyone she talks to wants to abuse her and will willingly degrade herself so someone will pay her attention, even if it's negative. This makes it all the more shocking when she's the killer of Chapter Three, and a double-murderer who's in love with Monokuma/Junko at that. | |

Little House on the Prairie: Virtually every one of the Ingalls, especially Charles(!) and Laura, who often cried at the drop of a hat. Except for possibly Nels Olesen and his son, Willie, most of the other people of Walnut Grove were more than willing to share their feelings, from big, hulking men like Jonathan Garvey and the uncouth Mr. Edwards to the spoiled tantrums of Harriet Olesen and her daughters, Nellie (in her spoiled, wild years) and especially Nancy. This ironically is vastly different from the books, where despite numerous hardships the Ingalls were incredibly stoic and discouraged showing emotions or complaining when they were struggling. | |

Oz provides a non-comedic (REALLY non-comedic) male example in one-shot character Guillaume Tarrant. He's an art vandal who has the incredible misfortune of being locked up in a maximum-security prison with the show's standard roster of killers and rapists. He's in tears at the harassment he suffers from other inmates on his first day, and repeatedly thereafter. Things... do not improve for him. | |

Usagi from Sailor Moon. Whether it's dramatic or Played for Laughs, she's very sensitive and it doesn't take much to make her cry, especially in the first season. Her daughter from the future, Chibi-Usa had her teary moments too, particularly in the Black Moon arc. | |

Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba: There's Zenitsu, and oh boy does he ever. It is mostly used in a comedic way to either show Zenitsu reacting to being rejected by a girl, or his crushing fear of fighting demons despite being a professional demon slayer himself. However, there are a few memorable times where his tears were used for dramatic effect. There's also the main protagnist, Tanjiro, who is a rare noncomical male example. He is quite emotionally open and cries quite frequently. In nearly all cases, Tanjiro's tears are used to convey his genuinely kind-hearted and emotionally intelligent nature. |

South Park: Butters Stotch can be rather emotional and sensitive, often getting upset whenever things go wrong for him. With how much crap he always gets put through, however, it's hard to blame him. Stan Marsh is another example, as he tends to get teary or emotional at the drop of a hat. For the most part, it's played rather seriously and makes him all the more sympathetic. Mr. Mackey, the counselor at South Park Elementary, can also get quite emotional when he either gets confronted or feels confused. Clyde Donovan is a great example, because he probably cries more than the other three. This is often played for laughs with how frequently he cries and what he sounds like when he sobs. |

EXTRAPOWER: Attack of Darkforce: Rurine is very quick to cry, an aspect of her own immaturity and the pressure of being the new Blue Hikari Warrior Ruritia — she blames herself for Shimoun going missing and Kallion being left in a coma after their last battle with the Yami Clan. In true Magical Girl fashion, she eventually matures into her role and as a person by the end of the game with the support of her comrades-in-arms and friends. | |

Ganryu from the Tekken series is a rare male example, but it's usually Played for Laughs. Examples include when he cries after defeating Jinpachi in Tekken 5, and also is the only male to cry in his lose pose when paired up with Jaycee. Josie Rizal is probably an even better example. She cries in her intro/outro poses, and being a crybaby is pretty much a large part of her character. She does show moments of confidence and being upbeat, though. |

Pretty Cure: Futari wa Pretty Cure gives us a rare villainous example in Regine, who seems to be in a perpetual state of about-to-cry when in her civilian form. She's very soft-spoken, and when repeatedly asked to repeat what she said because they couldn't hear her, she'll suddenly yell and cause everyone in the room to jump. All of these traits melt away whenever she assumes her true form, however. Yayoi in Smile Pretty Cure! is described in the first episode as a crybaby whose tears start flowing with even the smallest nudge. She's also seen crying when she uses her Cure powers during the opening. |

Dragon Ball Z: Gohan was very much a crybaby during the early Saiyan Saga, though this is justified since he's only four years old at that point. He ends up crying so much that the still-evil Piccolo eventually gets sick of it and threatens to snap his neck if he doesn't stop. It isn't until Piccolo's Heroic Sacrifice the following year that Gohan would stop being crybaby and matures very quickly after that. | |

During the second half of Revenge of the Sith, the usually optimistic and resilient Padmé Amidala becomes a lot more emotionally fragile and prone to breaking down in tears. This is justified, both because her pregnancy is making her more sensitive and because she's stuck in a really dire situation, such as an ominous premonition that she'll die in childbirth hanging over her, her husband sneaking around doing shady things for the Chancellor, the Chancellor being revealed as a Sith Lord who is actively taking over the galaxy, the Jedi being framed and exterminated, and finding out her husband has turned to the Dark Side, among other things. | |
