That scene with Kyosuke facing all their ghosts, as they giggled had me break into tears, made my whole body shake even, never have I cried like this in a long, a way too long time. Thank you Little Busters, with all my heart.
Yup, the crying in this scene isn't acting, it's real. He related so hard to Kyousuke, he wound up imagining if he were in this situation, and he felt so awful.
The entire first season, nothing made me sad unlike clannad, then throughout refrain, the sad feelings just built up until this episode, and I felt like crying so badly. I finally shed a tear, my first tear which I never did even in Clannad and After Story, that is how emotional this episode hit me....
I was already crying in the first season so you can only imagine how bad I had it in Refrain lol. LB was the first anime to make me cry. And like you I had already seen Clannad and AS prior.
I love the visual/symbolism behind Riki hitting a walk-off homerun to signify how strong he is, and how far he's come. The entire baseball thing is literally just a way to track how he's growing.
It worked that way in the visual novel too. Every character has stats and at the beginning Riki and Rin's are the lowest. This being the case, Riki is slow and always hits very short in the baseball minigames, and Rin can't pitch. However, with each route completed, Riki and Rin's base stats increase until finally they have the highest of the group and are able to win the baseball game by the last playthrough (or the last timeloop to be more accurate).
For real,Hikaru Midorikawa voice acting at Little Buster Refrain is pure raw. You could sense his sadness when he told Riki to leave this world to ensure Rin Safety in the future. Damn..
If you ever played the visual novel then that might've probably killed you, since the happy ending and this ending are two seperate endings you can get. To get to the happy ending that you also got at the end of the anime you first had to go trough the ending where Riki and Rin couldn't go back in time and everyone actually died. When Riki woke up at the hospital he found Rin sitting on the floor in his room waiting for him to wake up and tell her where all the others were. Then Riki told her that he would stay with her forever and that he would protect her no matter what. When Rin asked him if that meant that he was proposing to her he said that he was and then the route ended with Riki promising to be there for her forever. Honestly when I was playing through that route the first time and I saw it ending I could almost feel my heart shatter. I mean the VN was ending with everyone except Riki and Rin being dead and they had pretty much accepted that. I was like god no please don't tell me that this is how it is going to end. Then it ended and while I could feel myself slipping into depression you got this black screen with a choice option that made you choose between something like "accept it" and "don't" and when you select don't only then you can get to the happy ending. Otherwise you're stuck with the realistic tragedy ending.
Thai That honestly felt as if someone was slowly tearing my heart out of my chest while crushing it in his hand. And all the while I was hoping oh please please please don't let it end like this. I was crying so hard (and back then I was an 18 year old dude) I could barely see the screen trough my tears and only later did I realize how lucky I was that there was no one else home at the time to see me cry like a little girl in front of my computer. It wasn't even bittersweet like the end of Code Geass or something like that, but just sheer soul crushing sadness. The relief I felt when I saw the possibility of there being an alternate happy ending was like I got told a close relative awoke from a coma or something. The VN version of Refrain was seriously the saddest thing I've ever read or watched in my entire life and it still is so far (with the end of Shizuru's route in Rewrite being second place).
+Ohtori Sakuya the kicker about the bad ending where everyone dies is that apparently a LOT of people didn't choose "it's not enough," and just accepted it as the true end. People were shocked to find there was a happy ending that they hadn't seen.
i just spent 5 hours trying to find *THIS* particular anime for this particular scene . I remember being a 10 year old in December of 2015 when i accidentally switched the tv channel to animax and this profound , gorgeously animated scene was talking place . I didn't know what this anime was or what the whole " anime and manga " medium was .. but i was drawn to the beauty and the summery as well as nostalgic feeling .. i just dont know how to explain . Soo , from that day onwards , i would tune in the the channel everyday after coming back home and be in awe at the new medium i had discovered . BUT somehow i forgot about the show and this scene completely . fast forward to now and I find myself in a miserable state where i keep disassociating myself from the painful reality that i'm close to losing my mother because of her diseases and i havent made any progress in the last 3 years at all . This burden on my head weighs me down along with a lot of other family issues associated with the same . I love her to no end and im scared of losing her . My health is in wrecks , i'm addicted to degenerate pornography , i haven't studied for even a single day and my grades are in a steep descent despite me being a fast learner , i no longer can derive joy out of any of my old hobbies like drawing , soccer and watching anime I know a lot of this is self afflicted and only i can get myself out of this dire miserable state by .. making efforts .. i guess i'm reluctant on moving forward because of the fear that everything up until now will become the " past " ; a not so fond one . Watching this scene again will hopefully provide closure to my life because my " endless semester " began almost simultaneously after I first saw this scene . I hope tomorrow will be the day that I finally bid farewell to my past and stop being miserable . I will turn 17 on the 11th of feb . I PROMISE TO MY OWN SELF THAT I WONT WASTE THE REMAINING TIME , FOR THIS WHILE , I WILL CHANGE . I WILL NO LONGER RUNAWAY FROM MYSELF , I WILL BECOME THE ONE WHOM MY 10 YEARS OLD SELF WOULD HAVE WANTED ME TO BE
It's 2019 and I still fire this series up every six months. I'm in my 30s and I love the nostalgia of just hanging out with my friends and getting closer as time goes on.
Itsume Hanasaki A year ago, I was playing this game. When Riki had spoken the words in the game : "Goodbye, Little Busters" tears began rolling out of my cheeks, I cried uncontrollably for 3 minutes and was inconsolable for 2 hours. Playing the game again 3 days ago did the same thing.
Its not only about *FEELS* it's about how hard is the life and what do you need to keep going on. *Amazing OST, amazing PLOT and amazing STORY* Thank you so much Key, now I can cry in peace. Little Buster, forever on our hearts. :''''''''')
After watching this scene over 5 times, I thought I could contain the feels, but that's not happening.The second Kyousuke turns around with tears flowing from his eyes I just lose it every time. ;_;
I cried so hard in this episode. I've watched a lot of movies and animes with sad moments, and I only shed a tear. But this is the first time i've actually cried for real from watching something. Angel beats ending was a close second to me. But this one, it's like it touched my heart and grasps my emotions! The guy who created this did a good job connecting the characters emotions to the audience!
This anime is symbolizes our life, as watch them along we grow together and the reality we have to face in our life at the end of it. Without being realized, this anime also a part of our life, the characters, their connections with us. Although it’s long ago but the characters in this show still exists in our heart as long as we don’t forget about them. Thank you for being there with us in those times.
I am generally a Dubbed person but this in Japanese, really broke my heart. The emotions Kyosuke was emitting were unbelievable. Dubbed was also sad but lacked emotional stress and was too soft. Didn't feel that real and sad. But jeez I'm crying even after I've watched it in Dubbed. The Subbed made me cry even more!
I reallu cried in this scene.. since the first season, i knew that something was off since the secret of the world... i really felt kyousuke's sacrifices for riki and rin... he really loves them even if it meants for him to dissappear.. Little busters is really something special of their friendship circle, its their life, their family, where they all began and where they end their story... Sayonara kyousuke... sayonara little busters...
This was the first anime that made me cry so hard I'll forever remember this and cry all over every time this is the most bittersweet experience of my whole life
I've loved little busters for so long, when i watched this i wished to have friends like them.. And i have already guessed that season 2 of it would be sad.. This scene....kyousuke...expressed his feelings that he wants to stay with them forever... I felt so sad..because i love kyousuke so much.. And when he dissapears at the end.. i cried even more.. I wont forget this anime.. This anime taught me so much about friendship, love and care for one another. Kyousuke.. *cries* Daisuki desu!!!
"I don't understand? what happen?" Can someone explain it to me?" Well... [SPOILER ALERT!] Simply put, there are 2 worlds of Little Busters! The real and the fiction. All Little Busters characters! rather, Riki's class got into a bus accident when they were on a school trip. Luckily Riki and Rin were saved by Masato and Kengo. After the accident, they all fainted. Yet somehow, the whole group of little busters! (except Riki and Rin because they are in shock) can realize their awareness of each other and communicate with each other through their subconscious. Kyousuke, Masato and Kengo are aware that Rin and Riki are safe from this incident. Decided to create a fictional world (background of little busters!) to make Riki and Rin stronger so that when they wake up, they can accept the situation (Riki and Rin still have a child mentality, this can be seen when there is a problem, Riki or Rin will definitely ask Kyousuke or the others for help, rather than solving the problem themself) In the end, all the Little Busters! loved the idea and decided to create a fictional world of Little Busters! and invites Riki and Rin's consciousness so that they can become stronger. Which is, they are always in a Time Loop (within 2 weeks, the world will repeat itself and the only ones who are not aware of this time loop are Riki and Rin) until they become strong. At the end, you can see Riki and Rin who finally, can strengthen themselves (0:25 you can see, how strong Riki has become) And that's where, which made Kyousuke and the others realize, that it's time to release Riki and Rin to the original world to save themselves. However, when it came to the original world. Riki and Rin decide to save all the students involved in the accident. To which Kyousuke was surprised, and proud of both of them. "Why didn't Kyousuke and the others ask Riki and Rin to save them, when they both arrived in the real world?" Because, they all thought that they were all dying and could not be saved. Therefore they didn't ask Riki and Rin to save them. btw, this fictional world is a subconscious world, with the help of all the little busters! members, they can create a fictional world based on their subconscious that is still supporting each other, so that this fictional world can happen. How tf did u know man? Welp, I played the visual novel version, instead of watching the anime. I don't hate the anime tho, it's just that in the visual novel version, the explanation is more complete and also I'm a visual novel player.
Dude, they built up Kyousuke like this cool character who is always leading the group by example and a guy with immense confidence and passion. Thus, when he actually breaks down in this scene and lets his emotions out, it got me. I cried so hard during this scene. Such good character writing for each one in this series.
I agree. Like Little Busters had me crying at this point but Re Zero has me depressed every other episode. You just feel so bad for the dude in that show.
This anime, Dear god it killed me. In the beginning it was all innocent and happy, but towards the end it got sadder and sadder. I JUST BROKE IN TEAR RIGHT NOW T_T
This whole season emotionally wrecked me like no anime had ever done before. It was really bad. And I was so happy with the ending, though I'm aware that having Riki and Rin come to terms with the deaths of their friends would have been truer to life and such, I don't think I would've been able to handle it had that been the case. Also, I just think everyone deserved a happy ending.
Late reply, if they kill em off, then whole developement in this anime will become meaningless. Komari finally able to move on and keep living, Mio able to let go of her imaginary sibling and start her new life, Kud who finally decided to chase her dream to become an astronaut, Haruka and Saigusa finally able to be on a good term, all of that will become meaningless if they die. I am so glad they made all of em alive.
I m really feeling sad.... . Kyouske was d person who s there to encourage everyone and to rub d tears but there was no one to rub his tears ... Why !!!
This is the most emocional scene anime I ever seen.... How precious are real friends.... Shinyuu wa taisetsu na koto! Thanks a lot Maeda Jun and gambatte ! You can win your desease!
I actually think that kurugaya and kyousuke is a good match! Their both mature and cannot really express themselves well. They love all their friends around them as well... but.... it doesn’t end up that way 😢
I cried in this scene and I thought that this will be the last time I will cry in this anime and I found that there still still series that I doesn't watch which is Little Buster Ex I cried in the ending of Saya route
It's 2020 and Corona virus is screwing everything up,been about 7 years after the anime finished, had nothing to do so decided to re-watch it during work, cried so much, thank god I'm currently working from home
No joke, I started all-out weeping the first time I saw this scene. Like, I had to pause the video, because I couldn't see the screen through my tears. If this anime had ended with Riki and Rin recovering from the accident and coming to terms with their friends' deaths, this anime would have instantly become my favorite. Unfortunately, the half-assed, and very familiar (* cough * looking at you Clannad * cough *) ending where "wooo everyone is suddenly alive because willpower and stuff" was quite disappointing.
+roserocksrapidly I would have hated Rikki and Rin for giving up on their friends and not risking their lives to go back and retrieve them before the explosion. All of them deserved to live and I am so happy that the Little Busters had the ending they all deserved. It wasn't like it was pulled out of no where either. The entire series was about developing Rikki and Rin, making them strong so that they no longer ran away and that's exactly what they didn't do.
+roserocksrapidly Read the VN dude, not only is it better but you can just not go back and do the BS save everyone ending, and stick with the 'lol ur friends r ded' one. I didn't like the random everyone's alive thing much either honestly.
+roserocksrapidly yes, but their being saved made much more sense than clannad's. saving someone from a car accident ACTUALLY HAPPENS instead of magic giving you a second chance and making another dimension for you to live in. while i don't feel how you do about the ending, i do agree that it would have had a much huger impact on if they really did all die after all, and riki and rin had to live on without them.
For me this is emotional because i really lost friends in an accident. Tho it's been years since then it is still painful. Its been more than 10 years since it happend. Still painful 😣😣
do you know i am crying so hard!!! when riki say "Sayonara Kyousuke" Sayonara "Little Busters" kyousuke who makes me crying too. you have to look episode 13 too its so heartwarming in the end.
The way in which we find an union between rin and riki there should also be an union between kyouske and komarii.... I love kyouske tooo muchh .. I found him d most important character here
I am confused about Rin's actions here. Why is she just standing there like a tard and not questioning any of it? She is only a few feet away, I know she can hear it. It's like Rin is just standing there derping while Riki and Kyosuke throw their emotions out there.
Raze Nakajou Wrong she was broken. She was too emotionally broken and couldn't understand, almost like she became a child. When you are a child and see your 2 parents arguing in a violent way you won't even know what is happening and why they are arguing, same thing.Except the anime toned down A LOT Rin's breakdown so yeah.
I was pretty sure Rin was fully recovered by this part. After Riki made her go back to regular school she pretty much bounced back to her old self quickly. The visual novel made it seem like she was 100% recovered at this point But it is the only explanation as to why she seems so odd here.
That scene with Kyosuke facing all their ghosts, as they giggled had me break into tears, made my whole body shake even, never have I cried like this in a long, a way too long time. Thank you Little Busters, with all my heart.
Riki may be the protagonist, but Kyousuke was the true hero of this story for me.
Very true ... Very much agreed with u
No doubt. Kyosuke is the best friend anyone could ask for.
I love kyouske kun !!!!
After he split all members of little busters? I was raged
@@spectre-kun8725 he didi it to make rin n riki brave nd self sufficient ... he s toooooo goodd !!!
Hikaru Midorikawa actually cried while recording this scene
Yup, the crying in this scene isn't acting, it's real. He related so hard to Kyousuke, he wound up imagining if he were in this situation, and he felt so awful.
+Spooky Man Source? I don't doubt it, but I'm curious.

Tarryman yup
I cried during the Nishizono arc you know, specially it kind of questioned the existence of me!
@@soumyasishbhattacharyya2805 her arc always gets me because I think we can all see ourselves in her, just wanting to disappear.
the part where Kyousuke broke down was the part that broke me. Manly tears. T-T
Yeah that part hurt me
yea he didnt want to leave so bad but he had to. that hurts so much.
I love the visual/symbolism behind Riki hitting a walk-off homerun to signify how strong he is, and how far he's come. The entire baseball thing is literally just a way to track how he's growing.
Ooooooo you're right
It worked that way in the visual novel too. Every character has stats and at the beginning Riki and Rin's are the lowest. This being the case, Riki is slow and always hits very short in the baseball minigames, and Rin can't pitch.

Francis Cooper
I'm aware of that, I played the VN a long time ago. That is what I'm referring to.
But i was glad that thi wasn't the actual ending... if it was... I WOULD BE CRYING EVERY NIGHT THINKING ABOUT IT!!
This was the intended result from Kyousuke but he didn't think Rin and Riki would be so determined they would try and save everyone as well.
This is honestly one of my favorite scenes in anime.
+dragonwarriorz1 For real! still coming back to this a year and a half later. I think it's the relatability of it for me.

For real,Hikaru Midorikawa voice acting at Little Buster Refrain is pure raw.
You could sense his sadness when he told Riki to leave this world to ensure Rin Safety in the future.

btw, this fictional world is a subconscious world, with the help of all the little busters! members, they can create a fictional world based on their subconscious that is still supporting each other, so that this fictional world can happen.
How tf did u know man? Welp, I played the visual novel version, instead of watching the anime. I don't hate the anime tho, it's just that in the visual novel version, the explanation is more complete and also I'm a visual novel player.
Thanks for the explaination
There r no words to say how much i cried with this part
It's 2020 and this scene is still so sad. Came here after watching kud wafer.
2021 still sad
@@frosty9750 How is it sad if they all lived?
@@tomo8940 I guess you could say the anime was both sad and happy 😅. Sad because of this scene but happy because of the ending.
When I saw Kyousuke cry, that's when it really hit hard. I'm not crying! Just that something's caught in my eyes...
Little busters is the first drama anime I ever see and it moved my heart and show me that not everything gonna be same
I lost my shit when kyousuke of all people broke down. Been a long time since i cried that hard
Dude, they built up Kyousuke like this cool character who is always leading the group by example and a guy with immense confidence and passion. Thus, when he actually breaks down in this scene and lets his emotions out, it got me. I cried so hard during this scene. Such good character writing for each one in this series.
I was sobbing like a 7 year old at this scene when playing the VN.
I cried so hard during this scene. Their love for each other breaks my heart.
God tier scene and god tier voice acting for Kyousuke.
Riki is one of THE great of protagonist characters of all time.
The build up; the symbolism ; the development ; everything - till the final episode .. fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu
More like , Wafuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu
I think it doesnt matter how many times I watch this scene i'll always cry
No other anime can ever surpass the greatness that is Little Busters!: Refrain. Not even Clannad After Story comes even close to touching it.
Re zero might
I agree. Like Little Busters had me crying at this point but Re Zero has me depressed every other episode. You just feel so bad for the dude in that show.
Not really,Subaru is a cunt and this show is masterpiece,it cant even match.
Yeah
Well, even if I liked Little Busters!: Refrain a lot, I think you're overrating it a bit :3
This anime, Dear god it killed me. In the beginning it was all innocent and happy, but towards the end it got sadder and sadder. I JUST BROKE IN TEAR RIGHT NOW T_T
What is the name of this anime?
@@nalinitambde1902 little Busters
This whole season emotionally wrecked me like no anime had ever done before. It was really bad. And I was so happy with the ending, though I'm aware that having Riki and Rin come to terms with the deaths of their friends would have been truer to life and such, I don't think I would've been able to handle it had that been the case. Also, I just think everyone deserved a happy ending.
Late reply, if they kill em off, then whole developement in this anime will become meaningless. Komari finally able to move on and keep living, Mio able to let go of her imaginary sibling and start her new life, Kud who finally decided to chase her dream to become an astronaut, Haruka and Saigusa finally able to be on a good term, all of that will become meaningless if they die. I am so glad they made all of em alive.
its a bad day for rain...
I m really feeling sad.... . Kyouske was d person who s there to encourage everyone and to rub d tears but there was no one to rub his tears ... Why !!!
Yeah it's impossible not to cry watching this scene
Kyousuke = man of honor!
Kyousuke is the best character in this anime ^^
its been years but im still crying over this scene..
This is the most emocional scene anime I ever seen.... How precious are real friends.... Shinyuu wa taisetsu na koto! Thanks a lot Maeda Jun and gambatte ! You can win your desease!
リトルバスターズは不滅だ!!
The endless semester.....is over.
I actually think that kurugaya and kyousuke is a good match! Their both mature and cannot really express themselves well. They love all their friends around them as well... but.... it doesn’t end up that way 😢
I didn't even watch the anime yet and I still cried at this
You should =') you should...
it's december 2020 and i'm still sitting in front of my laptop crying like a little girl
WHY AM I HERE AGAIN? JUST TO SUFFFFFFER?!
さよならホームラン打ったところで色んな想いが込み上げてくる
アニメに感情移入しすぎかなw
3年前のコメにあれだけど
個人の自由だよ
普段泣かない人が泣いているのは辛い
I remember the first time i watched this scene. Suffice to say a lot of manly tears were shed ;_;
『とっとと行け!』ってのは歌詞と繋がるね😢
I cried in this scene and I thought that this will be the last time I will cry in this anime and I found that there still still series that I doesn't watch which is Little Buster Ex I cried in the ending of Saya route
The saddest movement of the series it's a great anime
man... hikaru midorikawa is a legend
急におすすめ出てきたんだけどw
クソ懐かしい
遥か彼方が泣ける
7 years have passed, and yet? This is still so painful to watch.
It was a happy ending though?
@@tomo8940 doesnt remove the fact this part of that game/anime is painful.
It's 2020 and Corona virus is screwing everything up,been about 7 years after the anime finished, had nothing to do so decided to re-watch it during work, cried so much, thank god I'm currently working from home
Give jun maeda enough episodes! Cuz enough episodes can make the things he makes godly. Just look at little busters.
I was so close at not crying that episode but when Kyousuke also started to cry I lost so hard.
NOOOOO. HOLD BACK THE TEARS.
Welp rin loves Riki more than her own brother.
名作
Kyousuke: Look..
Me: Oh shit..
No joke, I started all-out weeping the first time I saw this scene. Like, I had to pause the video, because I couldn't see the screen through my tears.
If this anime had ended with Riki and Rin recovering from the accident and coming to terms with their friends' deaths, this anime would have instantly become my favorite. Unfortunately, the half-assed, and very familiar (* cough * looking at you Clannad * cough *) ending where "wooo everyone is suddenly alive because willpower and stuff" was quite disappointing.
+roserocksrapidly I would have hated Rikki and Rin for giving up on their friends and not risking their lives to go back and retrieve them before the explosion. All of them deserved to live and I am so happy that the Little Busters had the ending they all deserved. It wasn't like it was pulled out of no where either. The entire series was about developing Rikki and Rin, making them strong so that they no longer ran away and that's exactly what they didn't do.
+roserocksrapidly Read the VN dude, not only is it better but you can just not go back and do the BS save everyone ending, and stick with the 'lol ur friends r ded' one. I didn't like the random everyone's alive thing much either honestly.
+roserocksrapidly yes, but their being saved made much more sense than clannad's. saving someone from a car accident ACTUALLY HAPPENS instead of magic giving you a second chance and making another dimension for you to live in.
while i don't feel how you do about the ending, i do agree that it would have had a much huger impact on if they really did all die after all, and riki and rin had to live on without them.
+roserocksrapidly idk I would of been really depressed if they all died, the ending helped find closure for me.
Should have done what oreimo did have two endings
After watching kud wafter, I am once again here to suffer :'(
For me this is emotional because i really lost friends in an accident. Tho it's been years since then it is still painful. Its been more than 10 years since it happend. Still painful 😣😣
I watched it many years ago and didn't understand why they all disappeared
Rewatch time ig
THE WAY IM CRYING OH MY GOD
I really can't stop crying until now T-T
Just like Clannad:After Story, i litteraly cry on the 2nd season of this anime
Loved this anime
do you know i am crying so hard!!! when riki say
"Sayonara Kyousuke"
Sayonara
"Little Busters"
kyousuke who makes me crying too.
you have to look episode 13 too its so heartwarming in the end.
when kyousuke started to cry
i started to cry too :(
Little Busters!最高すぎるだろ……
This would've been a stronger ending, however I'm glad we got the copout final episode.
kyousuke got me so badly on this scene. ;~;
The music fits this great scene so well...Goddammit kyousuke..
Im watching this back in 2020. I am
INIVITABLE
Crap, i still can't watch this full video without crying. I have to pause every minute.
I cry :')
This scene got me hold my chest. I almost can't handle this moment. 😅
One of the best anime & one of the best endings
the show gave me crippling depression.
this scene gave me ultra crippling depression
The way in which we find an union between rin and riki there should also be an union between kyouske and komarii.... I love kyouske tooo muchh .. I found him d most important character here
Heero = Omae o korosu
Masaki = get lost forever
This = I cried a lot
I swear to god there tears coming out of my nose...
Little Busters is my favorite Anime!
I loved this so MUCH
I am confused about Rin's actions here. Why is she just standing there like a tard and not questioning any of it? She is only a few feet away, I know she can hear it. It's like Rin is just standing there derping while Riki and Kyosuke throw their emotions out there.
Did you even watch the anime or read the visual novel? Rin is very slow in catching the mood :P A natural airhead, I guess.
Done both... She is not THAT slow.
Well, I think that they wanted her to be that kind of character :D
Raze Nakajou Wrong she was broken. She was too emotionally broken and couldn't understand, almost like she became a child. When you are a child and see your 2 parents arguing in a violent way you won't even know what is happening and why they are arguing, same thing.Except the anime toned down A LOT Rin's breakdown so yeah.
I was pretty sure Rin was fully recovered by this part. After Riki made her go back to regular school she pretty much bounced back to her old self quickly. The visual novel made it seem like she was 100% recovered at this point
But it is the only explanation as to why she seems so odd here.
1:40 made me cry😭😭😭😭
