I'm curious what made you cry in there? I can't think of any particularly emotional situations at all.

Well I don't want to give any spoilers, but a particular spider dies at some point. I found it very moving!

Ah! I know what you're talking about now. I dunno, I found it really hard to feel anything toward the spiders because of the way the author presents them in different time periods as the same 'person' even though there has been many generations in between each namesake in the story.
