Bink's Sake actually didn't get me, it was the moment Brook joined.

"Those days were truly terrible. I had lost all hope.....but Luffy-san.....I'M SO HAPPY TO BE ALIVE!"

With all those tears in his eyes and seeing the journey that Brook had went through over the course of the Thriller Bark arc, I shed tears everytime. I didn't dwell much on Merry having to go, we all kinda saw that one coming, and knew that a ship like Merry wasn't gonna get them through the latter parts of their journey.
