| Tears of Awe | comment |
These are the tears that fill your eyes upon contemplating something wondrous, awesome, beautiful... an exquisitely crafted work of art, a vision of the cosmos, an extremely impressive act of virtue or badassery, the beautiful poem of a wordsmith, a musical piece of pure harmony, the awesome spectacle of nature, just seeing the whole of Earth as an astronaut, seeing the face of God, a taste of an Impossibly Delicious Food, or even as simple and beautiful as seeing a double rainbow... They cry while wondering "Why am I crying?" May be Played for Laughs if the object of awe is something most (sane) people wouldn't appreciate that much. May often manifest in the form of a Single Tear. May come together with a Nerdgasm and much Squee, or from a So Proud of You moment. Compare Tender Tears, Tears of Joy, Tearful Smile, and Manly Tears. Very common in Anime & Manga, though Played for Laughs and in the form of Ocular Gushers or Inelegant Blubbering more often than not. Examples |

Played with on Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs 2 when Earl sees the foodimals for the first time. He produces a Single Tear at the wonder... only to suck it right back in because he is a grown man who DOESN'T cry. | |

It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia: In the season 13 finale "Mac Finds His Pride", "Well Done, Son" Guy Mac, who has been the butt of gay jokes for being an extremely obvious Armoured Closet Gay for the entire series, decides to accept who he is and come out to his father via dance. His father walks out mid-performance. Frank on the other hand, who has become a friend and something of a surrogate father to Mac (and Charlie) over the years, is shown being moved to tears by Mac's performance, applauding enthusiastically and saying that he finally gets it. | |

In Chapter 12 of Asteroid in Love (adopted as Episode 4 of the Animated Adaptation), the Earth Sciences Club's Summer Camp includes (among others) a visit to the JAXA headquarters at Tsukuba. The JAXA visit starts with an introductory video, and at the end of the video, Mikage and Mai, who belong to the geology side of the club, noticed both Mira and Ao, their astronomy-enthusiast underclassmen, are in tears (Mira is even in Ocular Gushers mode). Mikage suggests the video is not supposed to be a Tear Jerker, but after noticing Endou-sensei is also in tears while gushing about how inspirational the video was, the former realizes she and Mai are in the minority. | |

Uru: Ages Beyond Myst: A civilization once spanning a vast empire, the D'ni, existed in a gargantuan cavern beneath the Earth, with the power to create "linking books" to other universes. In the present era, circa late-1980s/early-1990s, the ruins of the civilization were rediscovered by amateur archaeologists and fictional philanthropist Elias Zandi. It's said that when Zandi was brought on an expedition to the cavern, he fell to his knees and wept at how vast the central cavern city of the D'ni empire actually extended. | |

The Powerpuff Girls (1998): In "Dance Pantsed", Blossom gives a speech about how Townsville needs all three Powerpuff Girls to defend the city. Buttercup is so moved by her words that she tears up a little. In "Custody Battle", Mojo Jojo and Him shed a stream of tears of admiration, after a long Eviler than Thou argument, upon learning the Rowdyruff Boys' ultimate goal of simply destroying the Powerpuff Girls. |

Yokohama Kaidashi Kikou: Ch. 22 revolves around Alpha traveling to a point where she can look over the Sunken City of Yokosuka, something she did once before many years earlier with her owner. She's joined by the elderly doctor called Sensei, and as night falls the entire bay lights up, including the city lights underwater. Alpha is so awestruck by the sight that she can only stare and gently cry, with Sensei affectionately holding her head with one hand. | |

The Great Gatsby: Daisy and Nick are dumbfounded by the luxury of Gatsby's mansion, but the sight of Gatsby's wardrobe full of fine silk shirts makes Daisy burst into tears outright and bury her face in them.

In Cesare - Il Creatore che ha distrutto, Giovanni de'Medici evokes this in his questioning for graduation from university, when he is asked to defend his family's actions. He says that the art that they have commissioned, the culture of openness and discovery that they have fostered in Florence, and their sponsorship of artists like Sandro Botticelli and Leonardo da Vinci whose works have this effect on people — "To see beauty, to know beauty, and to be moved to tears by it" — outweighs the sinfulness of their other actions. | |

Spongebob Squarepants: In "Artist Unknown", Squidward, upon looking at Spongebob's impressive sculpture that was done in a single carve, got teary-eyed and remarked that it was beautiful. In "A Day Without Tears", Squidward attempts to invoke this trope by taking SpongeBob to see a sunset. Though SpongeBob is normally Prone to Tears, he manages to keep it in. |
