I haven't been as moved watching anime since watching the death of Choji in Naruto: Shippuden. This time around, it's the death of Yuuki, the best swordsman (or rather, swordswoman) in the Virtual Reality Massive Multi-player Online Role-Playing Game featured in the second season story arc Mother's Rosario of Sword Art Online. In the anime, the player Yuuki is a actually a 15-year old girl beset with terminal leukemia, and she gets to be the best VR online player because she plays almost 24/7. Her death in the online game signals her actual death offline, and all the game's virtual players pay homage to her. I cried buckets...
