Caption: Sympathy
explanation: The expression of sympathy or compassion requires at least two Japanese emoticons: one of them will be upset about something, and the other will calm him down. You can use kaomoji from "sadness" category for the first type. A key element for the second one will be "a calming hand" (ノ", ノ'or ヾ) or "shoulder of support" (see examples).
