One characteristic is the use of bittersweet endings. Instead of a typical happy ending, they often end with the characters being separated or having unfulfilled love, which leaves a deep sense of melancholy. For example, in some sad love story manga, the lovers might be parted by death or some insurmountable obstacle.
You need to focus on the expressions. Make the eyes droopy and the mouth downturned to convey sadness. Also, use darker tones and shading to set the mood.
The reason is that it often portrays raw and relatable emotions. It shows the vulnerability and hardships of the characters in a way that resonates with us, making us feel for them and experiencing a profound emotional response.
