Which Of These Anime Characters Had The Most Heartbreaking Past?

Some people say "AnIMe iS caRTOon", but who are they fooling? Most of us know the intense stories and the brutal descriptions that anime series show, sometimes even more jarring than real-life events. A common trope of this kind is childhood trauma and the dark pasts of characters. Some of them might persevere and become heroes, while some may give into the darkness and turn into the bad guys. This may seem clichéd to you, but every anime comes up with new and torturous ways of giving depth of personality to the characters, and I'd be lying if I said I didn't bawl my eyes out every single time. So prepare your tissues and ice cream, and relive these heartbreaking stories as you tell us which of these characters had it worst.
