Not bawling crying, mind you, but this scene always manages to bring a tear to my eyes (where Konata's dad explains to Konata, with her mother's ghost watching, that the one thing he was confident of was that he loved her mother more than anyone else could). A lot of the time when a series that's mainly comedy tries to pull off drama it doesn't work very well, but whoever directed this scene I give them a lot of credit.
Heck yes, the best episode. Ah, the memories.
Is it just me, or Kanata was really pretty? Blasted visual language of anime is always so skewed.
