Anime that made you cry? (*spoilers warning*)

[Higuma]

I know everyone has one. I just started watching Tsubasa Chronicle and I know I will end up crying at least once before the series is over. Have you ever cried while watching anime? or had an anime that really got to you in some way?

[tofutakeout]

yeah FMA. when he got stabbed. not going to explain anymore since it would then be a spoiler to some. I think I've cried on a couple other occasions. can't remember the series though. tsubasa does seem like a series that might make you tear up a little.

[KinkyFriedChicken]

For me It was Death Note and Paradise Kiss Alot of things happen in anime that Im sure alot of pple dont want ;_;

[oslapedo]

I'm really sentimental during anime for some reason. Off the top of my head things in manga/anime/video games that have made my cry (potential spoilerz):

- Shanks losing his arm in One Piece
- Mugen, Jin, and Fuu walking their seperate ways in Samurai Champloo
- Shino falling into a coma in .hack//ROOTS (.hack//G.U. was a very watery affair for me as well)
- Rukia's flashback to her early days as a soul reaper with Kaien in Bleach
- Asuma's death
- Hikaru's unrequited love in Ouran
- Avatar the Last Airbender finale (specifically Zuko's reunion with Iroh, Sokka and Toph thinking that they won't make it, and Aang and Katara's final kiss)

I am such a baby

oh man I got close to tears during that part of samurai champloo. I was like 'what? no this can't happen!' ha ha it has to be a really good series to me and the sad part has to be just right.

[oslapedo]

Gosh I know! Whenever I watch it I'm just so happy, because they all gained something from their journey >3<

Shay always laughs at me for crying during that XD

[Kahlan4]

oh yeah...

-fma at times, well, lots of times, especially with hughes T.T
-wolf's rain. the last few episodes had me bawling. sooo sad, but such a good anime.
-not particularly anime, but i cry every time i watch advent children, at the end with aeris... gets me every single time. along those lines, lots of games have made me cry... but that isn't really anime, lol.
-surprisingly, when i used to watch toonami, i think i cried, or almost did, during dbz when they were on namek fighting freiza and i thought they had killed off krillan. they played that episode on a friday and i had to wait till monday to find out if he was ok or not. worst weekend ever... lol. i think i cried during other parts of that show too *is lame but it's ok* hehe
-at the end of azumanga daioh. last episode was so bittersweet. it had it's usual humor, but i didn't want the show to end, plus the characters cried too.
-during the last episode of ninja nonsense when you think shinobu won't come back, but she does... lol.

i'm sure there are others, just can't think of them at the moment...

[Cassiopeia]

I cried watching Naruto when the Hokage died.
And FMA made me cry multiple times.

 

[nikkiolie]

I can't believe no one has mentioned this but Cowboy Bebop....the last episode

also wolf's rain and when Asuma died as well....I cried hard in both of those... OH and when Zabuza died too ;_;

[tofutakeout]

I know. it's one of the best anime series ever. it just had a wonderful plot and every experience was so great. :3*sigh* I'm just so connected to it.

I cried watching Naruto when the Hokage died.
And FMA made me cry multiple times.

 

same.

[Hazuza]

A lot of anime made me cry xP I cry easily for some reason... A lot of times it's in happiness, though |D

I think... AIR did? And Haibane Renmei, for sure. I think Wolf's Rain did at a point, and FMA... Ouran might've at the end, but I forget.


And Higurashi no Naku Koro ni made me cry a little tonight... only because the video kept stopping every second to load >.>;;

Gah.

[Cassiopeia]

Ouran made me cry from laughing!

[tofutakeout]

I can't believe no one has mentioned this but Cowboy Bebop....the last episode

also wolf's rain and when Asuma died as well....I cried hard in both of those... OH and when Zabuza died too ;_;

your right *ashamed* I can't believe I didn't think of that. I love cowboy bebop so much. I did cry during that.

[nikkiolie]

I didn't really cry till I saw the star fall and then it really hit me *sniff*

[oslapedo]

OH and when Zabuza died too ;_;

I kinda hated Zabuza and Haku x3 Shay loves haku though.

I almost cried once Kishimito started dropping hins of the canon-ness of Ino x Chouji ;_;

[Mr Silmero]

Nobody has mentioned Grave of The Fireflies yet?



Well I just did but that is beyond the point- I cried when I saw that and all my co-workers who have seen it have cried too.

[Cassiopeia]

Anyone who doesn't cry from Grave of the Fireflies is a cold-hearted freak. 

[Mister_manji]

The Place Promised in Our Early Days and Voices of a Distant Star by Makoto Shinkai are both tearjerkers. My eyes water at most moments of heavy emotion, ever since i stopped taking antidepressants when i was 18. But genuine tears, those are rare. A few scenes in EVA made me cry.

[BlackjackGabbiani]

Ending of the second season of Digimon. Not the epilogue, but the actual ending, with Oikawa meeting his partner only to die a minute later.
(yes that's a massive spoiler, but it's been so long and no one gives a damn about him anyway, which is a shame)

[nikkiolie]

.....I don't think I have seen that o.o

[Wuntvor]

I cry easily. Yes Grave of the Fireflies was one of them.  I cried the first time I watched it.  I can watch it again and not cry.

I cried almost non-stop through the last two episodes of Pita Ten. 

I was crying last night as I watched Full Moon, episode 34. SPOILER  The old man dies and the shinigami takes his soul.  Mitsuki wanted the shinigami to wait until the mans wife's blue roses had bloomed.  He wanted to see them bloom before he died.  She was told that Fate couldn't wait.  When it was time to die, it was time.  Mitsuki had to face the fact that she herself was destined to die in less than a year.  Made me cry.  I haven't finished the series yet.  I have a feeling I will be crying some more this evening.

It isn't an anime, but I always cry watching Disneys "The Fox & the Hound".  The part where she is taking Todd out into the woods to leave him in the wild.  I cry every time.   

[Hazuza]

hjsdkhfk spoilers, dude D8

Even if it was one-episode-characters or something, SPOILERS >:

--

Oh, and pet shop of horrors also made me cry |D Just a little. I cry with manga, too xD;;

[nikkiolie]

oh the fox and the hound....that movie made me cry too....and the lion king....o.o

[Wuntvor]

Well I was right.  Just finished watching Full Moon episode 42.  WAHHH!!!   

[Darknight2433]

Yesh, this will be a bit of a list. And spoilers are everywhere, so beware.

One's I can think of:

Pokemon: Episode when Pikachu almost leaves, where Ash is stuck in a snowstorm and has to build a cave, and the first and third movie.
Wolfs Rain: When Toboe died was my biggest. As well as when Tsume did. Or Cher.
Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann: When Kamina died, a few times here and there in the series, then the last few episodes.
Zoids Chaotic Century: When Shadow dies right in front of Raven.
Cowboy Bebop Movie: A few bits here and there. Love that movie. 
Ghost in the Shell: Any sad scene with Togusa or the Major or Batou. Or the Tachikoma! That whole series had me being a cry baby.
Scryed: Ending.
Dragon Ball GT: Verrrry end. Last few minutes. AND THE MOVIE OF DRAGON BALL GT. I WAS CRYING. THE WHOLE TIME.
FMA: The episode where it shows them burning down their house.
Digimon: Randomly. And the endings.

For manga, if it counts...

ANGEL SANCTUARY! Oh god, hardest I've ever cried for a book.

I'll think of moar later.

[superjaz]

maes makes avery one cry  
 but here is one that made me cry that i am suprised no one mentioned
tri gun, wolfwood

my brothers were watching that episode after my best friend died and i was bawling

not an anime but end of moon child will make me cry,
fruits basket anime made me cry, momiji's story
and manga will make me cry too, this one vol when akito was beating up momiji because he refused to get toru,then toru stands infront of him protecting him, and gets scratched acrost the face

and the newest volume  :'(the roster agg!!

Pokemon: Episode when Pikachu almost leaves,

that made me cry and the bye bye butterfree episode

[Hazuza]

Heh. In the original of it, when butterfree leaves it says that butterfree die after they mate D8

That was sad to find out...

Pokemon: Episode when Pikachu almost leaves, where Ash is stuck in a snowstorm and has to build a cave, and the first and third movie.

DD8

FMA: The episode where it shows them burning down their house.

... Didn't they do that in like... the first? xD (or 2nd idk ouo)

ANGEL SANCTUARY! Oh god, hardest I've ever cried for a book.

Ahhh yes. >: And I'm not even that far yet >.o

--

*KICKS MEGAN FOR SPOILERS TOO* xD Eeeeeven though I already know those.

[Darknight2433]

LOL I WARNED YA

[Deviant Spider]

Air TV was freaking sad. I bawled like a baby. I also got emotional durring Elfen Lied when she isnt being a sadistic creepy girl!

[nikkiolie]

I cried a few times in pokemon. Oh and in FMA when Hughes died and his daughter kept saying "why are they putting him in the ground? Daddy has work to do...."

wow starting to tear up just thinking about it

[AnimeMatrix]

I need to avoid this thread- too many spoilers @_@. Can people please post spoiler warnings?

I don't want to go into specifics, but there were a few scenes from Revolutionary Girl Utena that made me tear up a little. There was also a particular scene in Last Exile that made me cry... Neon Genesis Evangelion also made me cry- not from sadness, but from utter confusion. It took me a while until I "understood" it. There was also one scene in Serial Experiments Lain that made me cry. I think the most I've ever cried was a particular death scene in Trigun  .

And on a completely unrelated note, no matter how many times I've seen The Two Towers (the Peter Jackson version), the scene where the Ents are marching towards Isengard just gets me bawling like a little baby. I mean the huge epic granduer of their sacrifice; the loud, booming operatic score; the beautiful, lush scenery of Middle Earth and all the emotion... it just brings tears to my eyes .

[Higuma]

My wife cries alot when we watch anime. And yes FMA made me cry my eyes for the first time ever with an anime. Not sure I have cried to many times after that. Samuri X (aka Kenshin) was pretty sad. There are alot of anime that affect me emotionaly, not just saddness but anger too. Those are always the best ones, the anime that can get you emotionaly invested in it.

[Daxe]

Very few anime have made me cry. Sure, when wolfwood dies I choked up. I felt for him, I was upset but didnt cry.
I cried at the end of grave of the fireflies, the end of saikano and dont tell anyone.... the end of the second card captors movie.

[Wuntvor]

Well I made it to the end of Full Moon.  My tissue box is empty. WWHHAAAA!!

Yeah, anger in anime.  Maybe we should start a thread on that one also?  What anime made you wish you could pulverise the bad guy?  I have definitelly felt that way in a few of them.  Isn't it amazing how a drawing and a bit of music, along with some exceptional voice acting, can just make your emotions go bonkers? 

[dakiro]

the first one to ever make me cry was... Kimi ga Nozomu Eien or Rumbling Hearts at the end of the first ep....if i remember right that one ep made a wave of like depression or something to that effect across japan ... o.O or it just mite be here say ....

I cried a few times in pokemon. Oh and in FMA when Hughes died and his daughter kept saying "why are they putting him in the ground? Daddy has work to do...."

wow starting to tear up just thinking about it

i know....i am the same with that one...

[BlackjackGabbiani]

Pokemon: Episode when Pikachu almost leaves, where Ash is stuck in a snowstorm and has to build a cave, and the first and third movie.

Which part of the first movie? Please say "the backstory with Amber"...

Third movie was great too.

...and I'm gonna seem like such a wuss for this, but there's a shot in the *second* movie that gets me every time--when Jirarudan (the collector) finds the one remnant of his once glorious collection, stares at it for a second, and looks out over the ocean. He says (at least in English, he's silent in Japanese although it's perfectly in character for him to say this) that he'll start over...but you know he can't. He's ruined and he can't accept it, just like he couldn't accept the world outside his ship, and that's what caused the whole mess in the first place--his disconnection from anything that wasn't his treasures.

...and I could go on about him but I won't, because I have elsewhere.

[RandomCosplay]

same as what Higuma said FMA and Samurai X

and a few others I cant remember...

[superjaz]

on the english comentary for FMA the director said how bad he felt make the girl who voiced the daughter say that right in front of her dad

[nikkiolie]

wow that would be hard....but man it got right to the heart

[Kona-chan]

FMA was a very sad show 3: I need to rewatch it

if you want more sad anime, watch Uta Kata [Sayda would agree with me on this]

[Deviant Spider]

the first one to ever make me cry was... Kimi ga Nozomu Eien or Rumbling Hearts at the end of the first ep....if i remember right that one ep made a wave of like depression or something to that effect across japan ... o.O or it just mite be here say ....

OMG I totally agree. That was so sad. But beautiful none the less

[mangakaluna]

The first one was Sailor Moon...Then the first Pokemon Movie...Digimon, FMA, Lucario pokemon Movie, Rurouni Kenshin,

[Teasel]

Ouran made me cry from laughing!

I'm with ya sister

[princessmoon]

Last Episode of Full Moon Wo Sagashite. Man, I never thought I would cry! After the first tear...they just kept coming!!!!  lol. Good memories. 

[MiriaRose]

Sailor Moon and Naruto. D: And something else I don't remember.

[xxxchihiroxxx]

SPOILER WARNING

Chrono Crusade....

They both died.. two diffrent deaths (one for Manga and one for Anime, each surrealy diffrent from the other)

and when she tried to shoot him... Settela, and then a few other scenes... that as a sad anime/ manga

but i still love it more than any other <3

[melchizedek]

Gunslinger girl.

I'm a guy, we don't cry but if we did I would have.

[melchizedek]

Air TV was freaking sad. I bawled like a baby. I also got emotional durring Elfen Lied when she isnt being a sadistic creepy girl!

Heck yeah, an anime about a girl that'll die if she has any friends?  What in the weird!

[tofutakeout]

you know what? samurai champloo makes me cry a lot some times. mostly when I watch the scene where mugen goes through hell. I dunno why, it just gets to me. and that song makes me so emotional.

[Hazuza]

Ahhhhh x-x

Code geass had me absolutely bawling in the end.... I knew wht was going to happen because of a spoiler I accidentally found... but... It still hit hard ;_;

I want to cosplay Lelouch, but I'm afraid if I see Nunnally at the con I'll just be in tears all over again....

*headdeskdeskdesk*

[Teasel]

Tokyo Godfathers made me a little teary-eyed. But it was a happy kind, not a sad kind.

[makichan]

5 cm per second was ssssssoooooooooo good but such a tear jerker.
Watch it!
Also, another one to watch would be the girl who cut time.

[Griff_the_dragoon]

Spoiler Alert


I have not watched any that made me but the closes one would have to be Kanon.
Almost everyone has lost thier memories it so sad

[Wuntvor]

Spoiler Alert

I have not watched any that made me, but the closest one would have to be Kanon.
Almost everyone has lost their memories, it is so sad.

Yeah, loss of memory, or alteration of memory, is a common tactic in anime, and it often makes me cry.  Other shows that used it were: Clannad, Pita Ten, Shonen Onmiyoji, Code Geass, Bleach, Please Teacher, Full Moon, etc.  I think I probably cried during all of them.  There is something about having everyone forgeting that you were ever there, of having your presence totally removed, having your very existence erased, that is much worse than dying.  It always makes me cry.

Thats why Tsubasa Chronicle makes me sad is because no matter how many feathers Sakura gets back she will never remember Shauron.

[laurifer]

Naruto...when Haku dies T__T

[ichigoxcupcakes]

[Kona-chan]

I baaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaawed so much at the part with Sloth and Ed 3:

[VampireFangs103]

SPOILER ALERT!

Let's see.....I cried during Fruits Basket, towards the end of the series when it was all dramatic. lol.

And I cried in Fushigi Yugi when Nuriko died. ;.; That was sure depressing.

Oh! I cried in Sailor Moon at one point. Wow.....I'm a wuss. lol.

Let's see....and in the original Pokemon movie when Pikachu almost died. XD

[RemSaverem]

SPOILER ALERT!


And I cried in Fushigi Yugi when Nuriko died. ;.; That was sure depressing.

Ditto.
Also I cried in public during Princess Mononoke, which I saw in a Portland theater when it first came out, which was shortly after I'd been helping in campaigns to save ancient forests.
I've cried watching friends' fanfic theatre / hearing them read their fanfics at Bedtime Stories.
(Oddly enough, this is often the case involving Gundam Wing--which I still have to get around to watching as a whole some day.........yeah.)
I believe I cried at the first ep of the Black Rose sequence of Utena.
I cried in the Rem Saverem ep of Trigun.
Oy vey, I'm sure there are more.......
In terms of manga, I cried in the Holocaust-related ep of Pet Shop of Horrors.
Oh and (back to series), I don't recall if there were tears, but I did gasp in shock when ordinarily light and cheering CLAMP School Detectives took a 180-degree turn in tone for I believe it was the penultimate ep.......

[Sukotto_79]

I guess I am going to admit that "Kimi ga Nozomu Eien" was one searies that made me tear up.  But, it was a awesome series non-the-less.

[ichigoxcupcakes]

I can't believe I forgot these. WOW.

SPOILERS!!!!!!!

~Kenshin: Reflections
When Kenshin died, I was depressed for the longest of time.
I loved him : [ And I stilllll do.
[hugshugshugs]

~Sailor Moon Season 1
When all the Sailor Scouts die, and tell Usagi to go on and believe in herself. I will ALWAYS bawl when Rei dies, because hers was so emotional. AND THEN THEY ALL FORGET EACH OTHER. : [[[[ Well it makes the series go on, so that made me happyyy :33

~Castle In the Sky: Laputa
My all time favorite movie. I always tear up when Sheeta and Pazu chant the spell to destroy the castle. The song and the animation just tear my heart. I lovelovelovelovelove this movie with all my heart. Laputa foreverr!

~Zelda Ocarina of time
Who wouldn't cry at this game? hah I loved the ending. XD it made me sad that it was over. And I was really really sad to find out that Saria (MY ALL TIME FAVORITE CHARACTER) was a Sage : [[[[ whyyyyy [sniffsniff]

~Fushigi Yuugi
Ohhhh this one hurt my heart. I bawled when Noriko died, and when Tamahome forgot Miaka. I NEVER HATED YUI MORE. UGGHHH. But I understood her point of view, I just didn't approve of it. XD batch.

~End of Evangelion
This movie.... affects me deeply. To the point where I can't help but cry every single time. Especially when Asuka and Misato die. Asuka was so happy, to finally find her mother, to know that her mother loved her. And then she gets hella stabbed. DX and Misato, oh goodness. Don't even get me started, I'm starting to cry RIGHT NOW. XD

~Tenchi Muyo/Tenchi In Tokyo
Ryoko's unrequited love. Oh how I love her. She is my ultimate favorite character. And it hurt my heart that Tenchi was so DARN OBLIVIOUS until the ending. OMG IDIOOTTTT. I always cry in the first series and universe (alwayss) when she's like "Don't go Tenchi!! you'll die! I love you!!" and he's like "I have to save Ayeka" [twitch] argh...I hate Tenchi. Stupid stupid stupid. She's only your great aunt times 10,000,000,000. ew. ////When Sakuya dies in Tenchi in Tokyo I couldn't help but bawl. She was the first girl Tenchi loved (which is pretty darn significant since he has a HUGE flock of women after him) and she ends up freaking not being real.wtf.wtf. :[


I know theres more. Will update. XD

[Blackstar]

I cried when L (Death Note DUH!!!!) died. He was so cool and funny. Also I think I have some wet eyes with Zatch Bell! there passion is so amazing.

[tofutakeout]

@blackstar

[superjaz]

unico when unico leaves

[Darknight2433]

[tofutakeout]

Persona 3. and I haven't even watched it yet. 

[Blackstar]

lol Zatch Bell made me weep a lot. XD

@blackstar
oh my gosh. zatch bell was a tear jerker. in both cases of sad and hilarious as hell. XD

Good I  thought I was the only one. lol

[KinkyFriedChicken]

@Tofu:
I ish sowwy!

I 2nd that Persona 3 even being a game had some short but very very sad points in it.

[tofutakeout]

@kfc
it's okay. I'm fine with it. it was good for making me cry.

on a side note. best Disney movie ever that made me cry? tarzen. 5 minutes in and I was already in tears.

[XFD]

Ghost in the Shell SAC 2: When the tachikomas suicided to eat a nuke before it went off.

[Teasel]

Ghost in the Shell SAC 2: When the tachikomas suicided to eat a nuke before it went off.

I KNOW! I loved the tachikomas, they were my favorite characters in that series! Then you see their emotionless replacements at the end and kind of feel ill.

[Hidamari]

Lucky Star. /It was really emotional when they did that cheer dance 

yes, im serious.

[Sugarlat]

Every time
Last enpisode of Fullmoon wo Sagashite
Everytime I cry

[Seraph]

@tofu
what part of persona 3 made you cry?


hmmm....I can't think of any anime that made me cry
number of games have.  mainly Final Fantasy 6.  I think Persona 2 may have.....it at least made me very sad and depressed.

[Dapan Chan]

I cried at a part of The Girl Who Leapt Through Time.

Then in .hack//GU when Alkaid died. However, I suppose that’s a video game and not an anime.

Also Millennium Actress, I was all like ‘BAAAAWWWWW!!!’

Dang… now that I think about it… I probably cried during a lot of other animes that people have already listed…

[Darryn-Chan]

yeahhhhhh, Lovely Complex made me cry at times:(
but it ends pretty good, it is so gooooood(my favorite)
and i also cried because the the sieres was over:(

[Darryn-Chan]

but i really recomend it if you like funny/romance its realllllllllyyyyyyy good:)

[Washougal_Otaku]

I've come close a couple of times, but the only one that succeeded in making me cry was Grave of the Fireflies.

[paprika]

<sup>Well, the ending of NOIR made me cry...
I think the anime  that made me cry most was Princess Tutu, I cried several times while watching it (because of sad moments, and the fact that it's just such a beautiful series ;A; srsly), and whenever I watch the ending of it I cry. Bawwww..

Also, ...Pokemon. xDD
NOT ASHAMED.
The episode where Ash tried to leave Pikachu in the first season, I cried so hard.</sup>

[tofutakeout]

^ya know I think pokemon did that for me as well. 

[uraharafreak]

I cried many times during Evangelion, especially during the last two episodes. I cried a bit too when Fruits Basket ended. Whenever there is an amazing anime that seemed to sort I cry just because it ended. Hehe, it's just anime that makes to do this....really.

[paprika]

<sup>Well, I'm certainly glad I wasn't the only one. D:


Oh, and Full Moon wo Sagashite made me cry as well. Both the anime and the manga. And Fruits Basket... The anime, because they cut it off not even halfway through, and the manga, because well...it gets kind of depressing. ;w;</sup>

[Blackstar]

I've come close a couple of times, but the only one that succeeded in making me cry was Grave of the Fireflies.

That was such a sad movie

^ya know I think pokemon did that for me as well. 

The episode Goodbye Pikachu was a tear junker.

[allstarsniper32]

I don't cry but I do get teary eyed.

a lot of times in naruto when people die and what not.

haku, zabuza, third, asuma, uh others I won't say just cause I don't know how to do the spoiler thing.

Fruits Basket Manga because the characters are more deep and the story is more drawn out.

GTO a few times I don't really remember too much.

Yu Yu Hakusho, oh kuwabara, a mulberry isn't a bush but it was really sad when you died.

azumanga daioh, I never graduated from High School so that kinda got to me a little.

Now on to video games

FF XII, X, X-2

Disgaea

I think there's more but I can't remember. I need to watch more anime.

[Deviant Spider]

I didnt cry when Ash tried to leave pikachu, But I did get teary eyed when Ash let butterfree go. That one was dramatic for me.

[nikkiolie]

do games count? I bawled at the end of Crisis Core. I love that game so very very much. It had a great story and the way they tied everything together was flawless.

[Deviant Spider]

If games count than I cried (or got teary eyed) lots playing the resident evil games. lol

[nikkiolie]

Even some of the music from Crisis Core makes me cry XD

I am a very emotional person. I cried during most of the FF games. I can't really remember too many animes. I have mentioned some before. But other than those ones I can't really think of others.

[EveofAbyss]

do games count? I bawled at the end of Crisis Core. I love that game so very very much. It had a great story and the way they tied everything together was flawless.

Agreed. ^_^

I, too, couldn't help welling up at that game's end. I had to excuse myself while the credits rolled just to get readjusted and not cry all over the psp, lol. Amazing ending, and the same goes for FFVII. Not so much any given moment in the game but more the overall relationship between Cloud and Aeris. This carries over to Advent Children, the ending of which I just can't survive. *spoiler* When Aeris is leaving the church and looks back at Cloud...slays me every time.

[Deviant Spider]

FF isnt hard to get emotional too, its the brilliant background music and beautiful characters! (I think its their way of drawing in more girls....lol)

[nikkiolie]

they know how to develop characters really really well. And they are really good at making songs that suit the mood of the current situation.

[EveofAbyss]

Yeah, no kidding. Nobuo Uematsu is a master of emotional and conceptual song composition. Minimalism can break hearts, and Aeris' Theme is a wonderful example of this, starting off with nothing but solitary piano notes.

If anything gets me to tears quickly, it is hearing the music and letting myself think of the emotions of the characters. I tend to get sucked into FF with an amazing amount of empathy way too quickly.

[allstarsniper32]

The thing with aeris and cloud didn't really do anything for me, I had my time with cloud trying to be himself when the whole game he thought he was someone else. He tried really hard to keep his promise and actually playing FFVII made me not really like Tifa very much, I still think she's hot but she didn't even know how much cloud cared or tried until she was in his mind. Is there any other games besides FF games that get people to tear up? I stated Disgaea and I'll admit that a lot of times Metal Gear Solid gets to me too, I still want to play 3 and 4 but can't just yet. I Don't know if anyone remembers it but The Bouncer got me a few times too.

[nikkiolie]

Yeah the song right before Why on the soundtrack and the song that plays when you are in the last fight is really sad. For a while every time I heard it I cried XD

[EveofAbyss]

The last fight song...do you mean One-Winged Angel? That song is epic but I don't think it gets to me in that way. There are many other songs on the soundtrack that get me teary, though.

[nikkiolie]

no not that one. Just  sec let me find a video with the song I am talking about.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MOJ91H4mraU this one. I love it so very very much. The violin is absolutely gorgeous.

[EveofAbyss]

Oh, we're back to Crisis Core! haha, sorry, got off-track there. Yes, I totally agree with you on that. Crisis Core is simply fantastic with the compositions it holds. The artist's personal twists on some of FFVII's classic themes are just amazing, and (I didn't think it was possible) but he actually manages to inject even more emotion into the songs and evoke even more out of the listener. "Aeris' Theme" is even more of a tearjerker with the Crisis Core rendition, the acoustic guitar and/or violin added...has me weeping like a baby. So beautiful!

Okay, that's it. I just convinced myself to go find the album and order it. No more waiting, lol.

[nikkiolie]

it is very very good. I love the one I got

[EveofAbyss]

When did you get it? Did you find it easily enough?

[nikkiolie]

I got it .....about a week or two ago at the small wonders store in the beaverton mall

[EveofAbyss]

Really? That is surprising. I need to go there more, been there once or twice but never really was wowed by what they had. Cool enough though. Good to know!

[nikkiolie]

they have a good selection of soundtracks and wall scrolls

[EveofAbyss]

Very nice. I actually found a nice Death Note belt-loop chain thing there, which is sweet, but I hadn't looked through music much when I went.

Anyway, back on topic, Wolf's Rain got me crying by the end. That show is just sadistic in it's build up and climaxes.

[nikkiolie]

I love that show so much though. It was a great story.

[EveofAbyss]

Yeah, absolutely. There was such well-written character development, so that those last few episodes were just almost unendurable with their intensity. They really made sure you knew the characters and felt bound to each one.

[nikkiolie]

yeah that last few episodes were hard to watch. I may have to watch the series again.

[Higuma]

There are some scenes in Code Geass season 2 that have made me sad.


Edit: Ok I have now finished Code Geass Season 2 and I must say the ending did make me cry.

[playdohkid]

I cried for FMA
and I hate to admit but I cried like a baby in Avatar The Last Airbender with Uncle Iroh oh an Appa.

[Syd-chan]

FMA!

[nikkiolie]

I cried for FMA
and I hate to admit but I cried like a baby in Avatar The Last Airbender with Uncle Iroh oh an Appa.

OMG with Appa? Same. One of my dogs looks a lot like him so that was hard for me to watch. She looks so much like him and even acts the same, I kept imagining it was her instead of Appa x.x

[EveofAbyss]

FMA!

Definitely FMA. The part with the dog-daughter-chimaera, that whole episode or two was just insanely heavy.

[Syd-chan]

FMA!

Definitely FMA. The part with the dog-daughter-chimaera, that whole episode or two was just insanely heavy.

xD That was the one that made me cry the most.

[Wuntvor]

FMA!

Definitely FMA. The part with the dog-daughter-chimaera, that whole episode or two was just insanely heavy.

xD That was the one that made me cry the most.

And The death of a key character at the halfway point of the series, and the whole episode about the town of people turning to stone.  Yeah lots of tear jerking in FMA.  Another series that was similar was Scrapped Princess.  I did a lot of crying during that one as well. 

[Beruchi baka]

D: Bambi. Every. Single. Time.
D< I AM NOT ASHAMED.>_>;

I adored Wolfs Rain.>.< I was just all, "NOOO TOBOE YOU CAN'T GOOO ;3;"

....I always had a hard time figuring if Toboe was a girl or a boy, even though they referred to him as a boy...>>

Scryed was emotional for me.;3; I hate how Ryuhou and Mimori are just so damn oblivious.D< And Kazuma... ZOMGANDCOUGARILOVEDHIM.;-;

D: FMA. D< Damn that anime. Sloth&Lust kill me every time.x.x

[ThiefKingsHier]

 The REAL Yugioh, namley the ancient Egyption arc. 

I will never EVER forgive 4Kids for ruining that show.

 Most anime/TV/games dont really make me feel anything for the characters, its fake, its overdone its just ..not convincing.
But the creator of Yugioh really got all of the emotion through.

The majority of the series is really quite sad but the end was the worst. After everything it actually end. The main character is gone. for good. Its over. The end.
( it also confuses the hell out of me. I still dont completley understand certain parts of the story)

I cried MORE when I saw YGO GX. Its a lie. A hideous lie!

[Man of the Public]

I cried while watching Eureka SeveN, FMA, (Hughes, that is all), Transformers: The Movie (When Optimus Prime died), Transformers: Beast Wars (When Dinobot died), Gundam 00 (Lockon, Lockon), Pokemon: The Movie (When all the pokemon started to cry Ash), and Gurren Lagaan (Episode 8 and 26). That's all of them.

OMG THERE IS AN EGYPTIAN ARCH?! I must watch this one. I love Egypt

What episode does it start on?

[EveofAbyss]

Can I possibly add a video game? If not, oh well, haha, Final Fantasy X had me going by the ending...but wanna know the game that really killed me? Crisis Core. By the end of that game, Multnomah Falls had nothing on me! I was a waterfall, I'm telling you.

[Kahlan4]

ditto. but i think i've cried at some point during every final fantasy game i've played. maybe with the exception of ffii and ffxii. ffvii, well that one is obvious... ffviii, the parts when rinoa is in space, and the ending (ending was with joy though), ffix, can't remember exactly, but i'm sure i did at some point... ffx, well, a lot, but especially in macalania woods with tidus and yuna, and the end. ffx-2, the perfect ending i teared up. dirge, can't remember exactly in that either... i'm sure parts in lucrecia's cave when vincent visited her and some of the flashbacks. crisis core, a few parts, but mostly the ending T.T and advent children, i cried at the end of that too. anyway, that's not really anime, but still... lol

[EveofAbyss]

It still totally counts. If the games don't, FFVII:AC does. It's a movie, and it's of the Japanese/anime culture, heh.

And I agree about AC, the ending gets me every time without failure.

[Kahlan4]

yeah, it gets me every time too. and, listening to the soundtracks of various ff games and ac, i get teary eyed during certain songs.... i'm such a softie, heh

[EveofAbyss]

That's the power of Nobuo. He is a Black Mage, after all, hehe.

What episode does it start on?

Yes, what you dont know if you only watch the american version-EVERYTHING leads back to ancient Egypt.
It even makes you feel bad for Bakura ( his Eygption self is one of my VERY favorite characters, hence my SN)

I believe it starts at episode 205. Unfortunately, since the american version only existed to peddle the cards, it was never released on TV. Ive only ever seen it as a Hong Kong sub.

Thief, you said it best.  I started watching the early cartoon when I started collecting the cards.  GX is a lie, they're trying to copy Digimon.

[strayanimus]

Maybe not anime, but 20th Century Boys had me in tears more often than any book I've ever read. And books seldom make me cry. >__>

[Syd-chan]

Ehhh, I also cried during what little I've played with Crisis Core. ANGEAL. xD;; Oh, boy. I'm sure I'll be bawling by the end. [I'M SO CLOSE D<]

[EveofAbyss]

Yeah, keep playing Crisis Core. The ending is such a reward.

[princessmoon]

The ones I mentioned b4. Now I remembered another one--I wanted to cry at the end of Chrono Crusade. I'm weak... *sniffle*

[Prince Nori]

the first Pokemon movie ;__; I thought Ash was dead, and pikachu was all 'how come you're not movieng?' ;o; and then I was all GRAAAHHH *sobbing in the theater* T^T

[Beruchi baka]

...Dude. I was like, twelve, when I first saw the first pokemon movie, and I ALMOST...>> bawled like a baby.

...

<< Almost should count too, right?xD;

[princessmoon]

"Almost" most definitely counts. Don't tell me you had sand in your EYE!!!

[nikkiolie]

I cried at the pokemon movie. It was sad when Ash was turned to stone >_> ;_;

[Beruchi baka]

XD; All the pokemon crying nearly had me in the end.>///>;o;

[princessmoon]

 

[mangakaluna]

I cried in the first pokemon one as well TT^TT And Sailor Moon...And FMA (HUGHESSS TTATT)

[princessmoon]

don't mention hughes!!! 

mwahhhhhh

[Beruchi baka]

Dude, Hugh made me soooo sad.>> I loved him.;-; D< AND THEY PURPOSEFULLY DO THAT. Make the most adorable, lovable character, with everything to live for, and then kill'em off.

;-; "Why're they putting daddy in the ground? Daddy has to go to work. Daddy..." ;-;;;;;;;;;;;

[princessmoon]

Noooooooo! I bawled my eyes out. I know, I was soooo sad too! I was like...they're gonna bring him back, I know it...they will!  Transmutate something!...put him in a doll for all I care!  Bring him baaaack~~~!...    Gah...

[Beruchi baka]

;-; little Alicia was soooo sad...

[princessmoon]

Gah! 

Then there was Tucker and Nina! WAAAAHHH!
And Ed and his Mama look-alike homunculus! Waaahhh!

[Beruchi baka]

>> I was sad when Lust died.D: I really liked her. True, she tossed aside countless lives for her own selfish reasons, HOWEVER.<<;;;;

[princessmoon]

Now that I think about it, FMA had so many sad episodes! *sigh. FMA also had it's funny parts to balance the sad parts! Don't dwell on just the sadness!

[mangakaluna]

TTATT I managed to get through Hughes's death, but the funeral scene was what made me bawl. True, it had funny parts- Which is what made it good :3 A nice balance

[princessmoon]

Yup, yup! I am hoping the FMA airing in April will still have the qualities that touched us. Perhaps we will laugh twice as hard as well as cry twice as hard...

[EveofAbyss]

I have to agree, the portion with Hughes' death/funeral scene tore me up, as well as the Nina/Tucker subplot, and the Lust death scene, and the teacher's (forgot her name) death-march/assault on the hospital. That part was so intense! You're right, there are so many parts of that show that get just terrible with the sadness.

[LtCommanderRichie]

When Kamina died in Gurren Lagann- that had me crying, which wasn't too good because I was in Math class.
I didn't cry for Asuma until Shikamaru got revenge on Hidan, then the waterworks really got started.
I bawled for Hughes, but that's to be expected. But still, that wasn't cool.
No matter how many times I watch it, when Lavi fights himself in his mind I end up sobbing and hugging my computer screen.
Lenalee's monologue of her life being a dream in one of the last episodes of DGM also makes me bawl, though not usually to the extent of Lavi's fight.
When I was little, when Heero apparently blows himself up in his Gundam, that made me howl so bad. That was probably because I had a little-girl crush on him, though. That may not be exactly what happened, but I distinctly remember watching Heero, there was a detonator involved, and I was crying "NO HEERO DON'T DO IT!"

That's all I can remember, though there are probably a few more.

[ThiefKingsHier]

Noooooooo! I bawled my eyes out. I know, I was soooo sad too! I was like...they're gonna bring him back, I know it...they will!  Transmutate something!...put him in a doll for all I care!  Bring him baaaack~~~!...    Gah...

Yea, but thats what makes it so sad.
I hate it when an anime just brings everyone back to life. It really cheapens ..everything that character did and the emtional effect on the other characters.

That reminds me....

 Rage mode activated. Prepare for ranting..


 Samurai Troopers. Shutens death WOULD have made me cry, if I werent instead so unbelieavbly pissed by the whole situation. Rather than crying, it was angry ranting time and it went little something like this-

^{First of all he died to save tha annoying Mary Sue!! So now she has the ancients powers AND Shutens. May as well just give her the bloody White Armor while your at it. In fact, take the shirts off their backs too will THAT be enough?
Second ( and WORST) of all he didnt even kill the damned demon! How lame is THAT?! Oh..and after the fact the only one who knew/or cared that he was dead was the obnoxious brat}

Long story short- He died for no reason and no one cared. Oh hey, wanna kick the corpse around a little?  *RAGE*


Oh! I forgot more recently ( also involving tears of Rage) Nicholai in Shadow Hearts Covennant.
 Yes, he was horrible person but I was really pissed because a lot the crap that led upto eveyrthing was NOT his fault. Its the fault of Kato and Yuri and that crazy ass Mad Scientist for being too damned stupid to understand the concept of a 'bad idea"

*Spoiler*
  ^{using DNA to bring back your lost love- more questional than bad. Also, EXPECT bad things to happen.
 Inentionally seperating an evil God from the one thing keeping it at bay - Horrible God-awful "are you brain damaged-idea."
 FOLLOWING resurrecuted evil God into an active Valcano WORST IDEA EVER"
 Grossly crushing pretty-boys head because of YOUR mistakes just stupid.
 pretty, classy, characters do not die grousome deaths you hideous-emotastic POS.}

*End Spoiler*

That was fun >_>

[venightmare]

spirited away almost made me do it... but chobits had me crying at the very end... couldn't help it, i hate it when love falls apart more so than the fact i'm the only guy who never seems to find a girl that won't try destroying my life...

[tofutakeout]

someone probably already said code geass. well for sure someone did. I cried when someone certain died(no spoilers) but really I only cried because lelouche cried. it was so sad. >_<

[Konan-ChanX3]

I've cried reading Naruto... >> [is narutarded]

why did you have to say that line TT_TT i already was remembering that scene with everyone talking about it. you just made me cry again because of that scene... such a sad scene...

[DemonSpawn]

During FMA, when Hughes died, I yelled, "Noooooooo!" Really loud and my sister came running upstairs. XD

[soundninja12]

I cried at the end of the Zabuza Saga in Naruto, when I thought Sasuke died.
I cried in Naruto when Sasuke ran away
I cried in Naruto when Choji almost died, and when Neji almost died.
I cried in Bleach when Rukia was Arrested, in Bleach.
I cried in FMA, need I say more?
I cried in Pokemon, when he released his butterfree, and when I thought he was going to have to leave Pikachu. I also cried in pokemon when Mew Two made them forget everything.

I'm such a cry baby

[Konan-ChanX3]

I cried when I was reading FMA today
"Why do they have to bury papa? Why are you guys burying my papa? No... If they do that papa won't be able to go to work anymore... Papa said he has lotsa work to do! No. Please don't burry him..."
But that was after my bout of side-splitting laughter at ed.
"I'M NOT GUNNA DRINK SOME OPAQUE WHITE LIQUID THAT WAS SECRETED BY A COW!"

[superjaz]

I've cried reading Naruto... >> [is narutarded]

*spoiler*

the idea for a spoiler is to make it too small to read at a glance, this was not, and yes it spoiled it for me thanks please make it smaller

[Konan-ChanX3]

I did make it small enough >>

[superjaz]

no i can still read it as is its cool i'll just ask a mod to do it

[Konan-ChanX3]

Okay well I tried my best to make it small enough I wasn't sure just how small it could go >> sorry jaz

[kylite]

Gantz.... Nuff Said

[Konan-ChanX3]

Ooooo Gantz was sad

[Wuntvor]

Just watched the first episode of Cross Game.  Boy was that a plot twist.  Anyway, yeah, I cried at the same time as the main character.

EDIT: Showed this episode during Anime Friday and all four people that showed up also cried, and I cried again.

[The_Geek]

Hm, when I was younger ANY of the Pokemon movies would make me cry. Now I have the experience to know that whoever dies really isn't dead.
I know I must have cried when watching Naruto at several points. Most likely in the end of the Zabuza arc for the death of you know who. And Deathnote too. Possibly Bleach as well.
Chobbits ALMOST made me cry on the last episode, same goes for the third to last episode (Or whichever it was.) of Pita Ten, and Tsubasa- but that was a manga. Hell Girl too.
D. Gray-Man. At least once. Spirited Away nearly every time I watch it.
And the anime I just finished watching last night, Tales of the Abyss. Oh my Hypnos. I was crying so much in episode twenty-two.
I know there are more too.
*Is reduced to emotional puddle*

[ichigoxcupcakes]

時をかける少女 ,Toki o Kakeru Shōjo, I basically bawled through that whole entire film. It literally is my favorite film.
ChiakixMotoko forever~ (I was going to write some spoilers but I decided not to :3 BECAUSE YOU SHOULD WATCH THIS FILM.)

[DecemberWinds]

Gah... I cry a lot. DX

Wolf's Rain made me bawl my eyes out... soooo sad, but still a very good anime. ^^
Then there's FMA. That made me cry several times. >_< But really, I think FMA is one of my all-time favorites in the world of anime. =]
Tsubasa is another one. Several sad parts for me there as well, but just like FMA, it's one of my favorite anime of all time. ^.^
...Heck, .hack//SIGN made me cry. The situation in and of itself was sad. D= But .hack//SIGN IS my favorite anime of all time. PERIOD. X3
There's several movies that made me cry, too... Spirited Away made me cry a bit. And I know this may be a little strange, but The Cat Returns made me cry a bit too. ._.; Love both of those movies, though. <3

There's gotta be some others... -goes to search anime collection-

[BlackjackGabbiani]

Hm, when I was younger ANY of the Pokemon movies would make me cry. Now I have the experience to know that whoever dies really isn't dead.

That has since changed *looks at movies 5 and 8*

[Faaedab]

Alright I just found this thread so I am sorry if someone mentioned this one already, but the series called Air. The whole series is amazing and there are several parts that will make you tear up but the ending just crushes you. I would most definitely recommend it.

[Konan-ChanX3]

L, Change the WorLd made me cry a little bit

[Higuma]

Negima eps 24 and 25 had me in tears.

[ichigoxcupcakes]

Toradora. Oh my god. I bawled my eyes out at episode 19 : [ I adore Taiga so much~~!!

[lightbeam911]

I cry easily so my list would probably be long ._____.;;; I'll shorten it to bawling XD

AIR. Of course. You can't NOT cry. When she was running towards him and "Goal" TT-TT Waaauuuhhhh

Chrno Crusade. The anime ending made me CRY, and manga ending made me BAWL.

This is embarrasing. Full Moon volume 4 XD When Takuto tells Mitsuki he loves her, and she starts yelling at him D:
Well, actually, in general, Arina Tanemura manga make me cry.
When Zen died in KKJ, I cried. And I cried like every volume in Shinshi Doumei Cross.
ION and Kyoko are the only exeptions really. Her art just portrays the emotion so well ;___;

Erementar Gerad. The last episode was so sad, but it got happy I'm still waiting to see how the manga ends

Rurouni Kenshin. Quite obvious WHY.

Ones that didn't kill me but made me sniffle: Hibiki's Magic, Sand Chronicles (It can only get sadder), FMA, Millenium Snow


*CRYBABY* God XD

[JulianaRose]

I cried during Spirited Away, when she's eating that sandwich thing and just bursts into tears.

When I was really little I remember Grave of the Fireflies being really hella sad, and remembering that, there's no way I could watch that without bawling my eyes out.  It seems like most of Miyazaki films have that one moment where it's just either really touching or sad.  Even in My Neighbor Totoro (I'm such a baby  )

Other then that, nothing else really.

[Hidamari]

Toradora. Oh my god. I bawled my eyes out at episode 19 : [ I adore Taiga so much~~!!

Toradora ending annoyed me. I rooted for ami

[iluvshijimi]

I cried during an episode of Higashi no Eden/Eden of the East when Akira kissed Saki and told her to leave everything and live with him. I was like, "OMG I WISH I HAD A BOYFRIEND LIKE HIM", lol. It's such a great sci-fi anime, everyone should check it out~

[Hidamari]

EVERYONE SHOULD WATCH THE OVA HAMETSU NO MARS. BEST. ANIME. EVER.

[Sugarlat]

most recent one is Code Geass when i finished it
i was bawling

[Hidamari]

god, when i finished code geass you would've thought that my whole family had died.

[iluvshijimi]

[Kimba-White-Lion]

Leo's death in Jungle Emperor Leo, Edward's death in FullMetal Alchemist along with Kiba, Tsume, Hige, Toboe and Blue's deaths in Wolf's Rain.

[lightbeam911]

@Chihiro:
     Yeah, the whole Satella/Az thing in general made my die, but the last pages with Chrno and Rosette ;____; GOD. Every time I re-read it, if I don't cry, I'm ashamed LOL

Sometimes Arina screws with my flow. I'll be bawling my eyes out and then she'll throw a joke in there, and I'll be like "Wait... WHUT." XD

[Romo]

I'm pretty sure I cried on the episode of Fullmetal Alchemist with Nina. The one where she got turned into a chimera and killed. It was so sad..! I can't really think of any other times, I don't cry that easily with shows. It makes me feel heartless. Dx

Edit: I take that back! I cried at Pokemon the first movie and at the episode 'Pikachu's Goodbye' from Pokemon's first season...every time I watched that I cried actually. It's just so sad!

[UtadaFan20]

My crying moment was the last episode of Wolf's Rain I cried for like a half hour after it was ended   

[mitsuki]

I cried during the final episodes of Pretear. I just couldn't believe that the guy that dealt with light (sorry brain is a bit foggy today) switched sides on them. I know that he loved the lady of darkness but I watched the series and I am going "NO! NO! NOOOO!!!!!". My mom was worried that something had happened to me.

god, when i finished code geass you would've thought that my whole family had died.

x3
Sahara cried and I just sat their.
I never really got to enjoy the anime because I was so upset that they killed off the two best characters..
Euphie and Mao. x3

[xxxchihiroxxx]

that episode with Euphie made me sob D: Lelouch didnt mean to do that! TT_TT she had almost fixed everything and it was just an acident!

[StarryShay]

Ah, another one that's making me tear up right now is Higurashi No Naku Koro Ni - Tatarigoroshi Arc.
Spoilers - When Satako is getting beaten by her uncle and she starts to cry, it's so sad. T.T

[UtadaFan20]

The anime that made me cry the most was Death Note when L died    . That was the worst moment in anime history for me I quit watching Death Note for like 3 months, I only just finished the series andthat was just to see if Kira got what he diserved or not.

[Darknight2433]

Hm. Gurren Lagann hit me the hardest. <3

[Bizzaroo]

Oh man I have never cryed so much then when I watch the end of Clannad . Actually I have never cryed while watching an anime untill I saw it. It was great though a fantastic story.

[Dubaby]

Here's a list of just some of the things that come to mind....

-Basically everything about Fushigi Yugi (especially the whole Nuriko deal.. ughhh)
-Ending of Chrono Crusade
-Grave of the Fireflies... seriously made me want to die
-Ending of Cowboy Bebop
-Wolfwood in the church in Trigun and the Legato scene ='[
-and the last thing that comes to mind is Code Geass, I'm afraid to start the second season because I'm already getting upset >_<

Basically I cry really easily when I watch things so there's a lot more I could put up here..... XD

[Hazuza]

*crawls back in*

I saw the ending of Code Geass for the 5th time saturday night ;u; since it was on TV and all... and... and...

omigod I KNOW what's gonna happen, but still it's so... TTUTT

And I don't mean little tears comin' out, but full-on sobbing. wthell is wrong with me it's so saaaaaaaaaaaaad D:

D:D:D:D:D:D:

If you haven't finished it, finish it. Nowwwww. And dun look up spoilers or you'll spoil it ;u;

[xxxchihiroxxx]

I dont know if i want to see it TT_TT ive heard a lot about it but im right about at the episode when theres this big deal with china

[StarryShay]

Hazu - I know. Agh, everytime we watch it, Sahara's always crying. and I'm just sitting there holding back tears.
(I always laugh when it shows Nuna-Chan in the red outfit though. xDD)

[Wuntvor]

Just finished watching Tactics.  The final episode...   BWAAAA....    

[DooFeRthePanda]

elfen lied made me cry. yup.

[LonelyBerry]

I know everyone has one. I just started watching Tsubasa Chronicle and I know I will end up crying at least once before the series is over. Have you ever cried while watching anime? or had an anime that really got to you in some way?

Full Metal Alchemist and Peacemaker Kurogane

[PrinceZacky]

Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann, AIR and Wolf's Rain.
T__T;;

[Arumi]

The main one I can think of that ever made me cry in an anime/manga(since I was reading it) was Zabuza and Haku dying. God that was depressing as all hell. D:

[Kimiski]

Sailor Moon - just the fact that it was over and it had been with me for so long of my life, and was my first, to finish it was insane
Fushigi Yugi- Touching, and another one that had been with me for so long
Chrono Crusade- teared up a bit on that one, how freaking depressing
Kanon- Another really depressing one
Clannad- Rollor coaster man! Sad and happy tears, I think this is the best one from Key Animation!

[leonmasteries]

For me, it was:

-kimi ga nozomu eien (rumbling hearts) - At the end of episode 2, and the last episode.
-FMA - Night of the Chimera's Cry (made me more mad than cry, but I shed a tear or two the first time I saw it) and the death of Maes Hughes.
-Trigun - The death of Nicholes D. Wolfwood

[Jacob_Blackfeather]

Chrono crusade (Rosette and chronos deaths)
Fma (Just mande me cry)
Baskilsk (Like romeo and juliet with ninjas.)

[Man of the Public]

One Piece when the Going Merry finally meet it's end.

Manly tears were shed.

[Classy Viking]

Cowboy Bebop, at Spike's last line, "Bang."

I shed some manly tears.

[superstarmegami05]

I've cried during a couple anime shows I've seen.

- Code Geass
- Fushigi Yugi
- Wolf's Rain
- Fruits Basket
- Peacemaker Kurogane

I also cried during Vampire Hunter D and the Yu Yu Hakusho movie. >_<

[The_Geek]

Three words: Crisis Core's Ending
Though, that's supposing anime games count too...

[Jacob_Blackfeather]

FF7 Advent

cried at the end.

[Chaotic.Fox]

Like most people I cried in FMA in Hughes died, course mainly cause Hughes was that Awsome, and I do plan to cosplay him once i get the money.

[Wuntvor]

Just watched Kemono no Souja Erin episode#28.  Dang it all!  Erin keeps losing everyone she really cares about!

[Washougal_Otaku]

Chrono crusade (Rosette and chronos deaths)

Wow, I had heard the circumstances of Rosette's death was different in the anime compared to the manga, Chrono dies in the anime?  He didn't in the manga!

[Salehthesage]

Manga...but Psychic Academy.

Not very big series, but the ending was so sad ; ~;

[jaqua]

I cried from the episode of Kyouya's past in Ouran... Mostly just from that beautiful metaphor with him painting the picture that represented his role as the third son, and then at the end he went outside the picture and painted on the whole wall. I DON'T KNOW WHY I CRIED. BUT I DID. GOD IT WAS A BEAUTIFUL MOMENT.
Also, the episode with the Alice in Wonderland crossover, at the end when Haruhi is dreaming the whole thing and crying in her sleep.
And the episode of the twins' past.
... Actually, now that I think of it, Ouran was a surprisingly deep show sometimes. It was hilariously funny most of the time but damn it could make me baww.

And it's not anime, but in Futurama, the Jurassic Bark episode that makes everyone who has a heart cry it out, and the episode where Fry dies and Leela keeps putting herself to sleep with the honey to be with him.

But I don't watch a whole lot of anime :/ I'm a reader of manga instead.

[Wuntvor]

Time to add another one.  Valkyria Chronicles 18 & 19.  In episode 18, when Rosie starts to sing, I almost cried.  In episode 19, I cried with Welkin.  I am such a softie.

Anyone taking bets on the crying that will commence for those watching Tokyo Magnitude 8.0?  I have a feeling that sombody is going to find out their family members are dead.  Anyone else feel the same?

I also think I will take a poll on who watched episode 1 of Cross Game and didn't cry.  I have yet to find one person.   

[fuuwindgoddess]

I cryed really bad in magic knight rayearth when eagle dies.  I've watched the show 6 times all the way through and every time i cry at that part

[Teuvan]

Many of the deaths in Legend of the Galactic Heroes made me cry. Best manly tears anime ever. Actually, best anime ever in general, but that's another matter.

Kaiji. "He fell silently."

Gunbuster, at the ending. Mass tears.

Gunslinger Girl. Again, the ending.

And while it's not anime, Planetarian needs a mention, because...oh god.

[Mitsukai Mizu Amaya]

Again, FullMetal Alchemist. No joke; when Ed got stabbed, when Hughes died. T.T It's so realistic in that it's an anime where the ending is bittersweet. I don't like anime's where the ending is completely happy or everything is all right with the world >.>

[ThiefKingsHier]

 D Gray Man. Not just when so many people die to protect the exorcists, but the song  the song of the 14th too I know, it sounds stupid but the lyrics... I really love ancient history  so Im always thinking about things like that.

By 'like that' I mean the idea that over thousands of years billions of  people have had dreams that go unanswered and fade away, so I guess it got to me...yah.

[Wuntvor]

Dang it!  I hate it when I am right.  Just finished Tokyo Magnitude 8.0.  I'm crying, and I have to go blow my nose.  Later.   

[Animeman73]

Anime made that made me cry eh  ? Hmm, on full contemplation of this I thought that the ending to Tactics made me cry when Ayaname (I think that's her name) dies and gives her farewells to the other characters. That performance by Cynthia Martinez (The American voice actress who played Ayaname in Tactics) her performance was just so beautiful, and so heartwrenching, that I couldn't help but cry. Take a look at it yourself and you'll see what I'm talking about.

[Roxas24]

Air!! I cryed and cryed and cryed sad sad day and when Hughes died in FMA

[Sakis01]

I cried my eyes out watching Fruits Basket. That was sad! ;_;

[Wuntvor]

Just finished watching Tactics.  The final episode...   BWAAAA....

I think someone actually asked her about the difficulty of doing that role during her panel.  I do remember her talking about it, and Yea, it was a definite cry scene.   

I have been doing a lot of crying lately.  We had to put one of our cats to sleep yesterday.  The vet didn't know what the cause of his problem was, but said that it would cost almost $2000 to stabalize him, and then it would probably be an uphill battle to keep him alive after that, if he lived through the night, which was questionable.  Rumple Teaser, we will miss you. 

[The_Geek]

Ah, another one bites the dust: Maria-sama ga miteru. (English version, Maria watches over us.)
Ah, well... yeah. Kind of already on edge from the NCIS episode I watched, so it was no surprise that this could do the same.
Final blow: The train station...

[Higuma]

Valkria Chronicles 18 and 19 is the second time I ever shed tears watching anime.

[Blackstar]

The anime Over Drive made my cry.

Yep of coerce a sports anime would make me cry >< The anime is all heart

[Wuntvor]

The anime Over Drive made my cry.

Yep of coerce a sports anime would make me cry >< The anime is all heart

Did you see the first episode of Cross Game?  It's about baseball.     I started watching Over Drive a long time ago when it was first released, but I think the subbing group I was getting it from dropped it.  I will have to go find an alternate and finish it up.  I think I was on episode 5 or so.

@_@ you missed the best episodes 17 and 18 T_T I was crying because I saw myself in Shinozaki

[Wuntvor]

@_@ you missed the best episodes 17 and 18 T_T I was crying because I saw myself in Shinozaki

I have the first 20 episodes now.  I'll try getting the last 6.    Mendoi stopped subbing at episode 10 so I am getting the rest from Toki.  Don't tell me anymore, I'll post my cry fest notes when I finish watching.

So Blackstar, watch Cross Game yet?   

[Kona-chan]

Just finished watching Gurren Lagann [for the first time ;A;] and Sailor Moon Stars and I Baaaaawed so much!

FFFFFUUUUUUUUUUU Uranus and Neptune why?!?!?!?!?! ;3;

[@random]

Too many have gotten me over the years, so just a few of the most notable:

• FF7 might not be anime proper, but it's the first one that really got me good. I'd already been spoiled for what happens to Aeris, but fell in love with her anyway. Somehow I managed to convince myself that the spoiler was untrue, and if only I got to her soon enough then she could be saved. Finally, we find her! I'm almost crying with relief. But then, THAT scene happens. Even now, just the music is enough to get me.
• The two episodes at the end of Negima! got me pretty good as well. Spoiler, click-and-drag highlight over it to read: Asuna's slowly-encroaching sense of helplessness and the "No... they wouldn't dare" feeling you get leading up to her death were bad enough, but then the effed-up unreality of how everyone tries to deal with it (up until Chao gives Negi the proto-Cassiopeia) clinches it. Not many things can peg my creepymeter the way Negi's artificial cheerfulness and "That's it, Yue! Human magic might not be able to bring her back, but maybe demon magic could!" did. There are too many other nuances to list here, but they had me in a puddle.
• Kimi ga Nozomu Eien actually messed me up for a few weeks afterward. Sad enough by itself, but try watching it when you have some personal knowledge of PTSD and what it does to people.
• Both versions of the ending of Mahoromatic round out the list. Particularly Suguru's dawning realization  of "Mahoro's going away..." just before she takes out Feldrance in the anime, and Miyuki's "The only person in the world who can save him is gone" in the manga.

Anyone who doesn't cry from Grave of the Fireflies is a cold-hearted freak.  

Well, I didn't... but then again, I often do fit that bill. (There are several reasons I cosplay Sohma Hatori.) To me it was too sad to cry for, if that makes any sense.


(Edit: Added jury-rigged spoiler code after Kurohime gave me the idea.)

[Sakis01]

I cried my eyes out when I saw the FFVII flick again. That just broke my heart. Aeris and Cloud were my favorite couple... ;_;

[@random]

'Cause I'm mean and heartless... here's another link for the most famous emotional scene in all of gaming. A Cloud cosplayer and one of my favorite Aeris cosplayers ever re-enacted it in the hotel pool at Sakuracon '05.

[Sakis01]

^ That was just a gorgeous scene to me. That one didn't make me cry. xP

What did make me cry though was the end of Kuroshitsuji cause it was just so damn good! xD

[Wuntvor]

The anime Over Drive made my cry.

Yep of coerce a sports anime would make me cry >< The anime is all heart

Well Blackstar, I finished watching OverDrive.  A great anime, but It wasn't emotional enough to make me cry.  Did get my blood pumping though.  Did you watch Cross Game ep#1 yet?    

I just finished  Umi Monogatari ~Anata ga Ite Kureta Koto~.  The last two episodes had me tearing up.   

[soundninja12]

Although I cried in that scene, the picture is awesome! YOU SHOULD INTRODUCE ME TO THEM!
so I can hug them, and tell them that they are amazing cosplayers

[Kurohime]

This is going to sound very stupid, but about the only anime that's ever made me cry is Naruto.  And it's managed the feat repeatedly.  

edit:  reads thread Good, it isn't just me!  Do we have a spoiler code?  I'm not seeing it in the options...

Me too, but just once so it didn't make my list. Spoiler: Sakura's scene talking to Sasuke on the night he left the village was a heartbreaker.

Spoiler code: I wish we did, but the only thing I can think of is to "glow" the text you want to hide, then replace "red" in the glow code with "black". Then someone would have to highlight it to read it. Example above: (glow=black,2,300)spoiler text(/glow) except that you use [] instead of ().

[Kurohime]

That sounds like work!   

That scene was pretty sad.  And the fight on the waterfall.  Also episode 52 of Shippuden, some of the introductory stuff with Tsunade, and a couple things coming up soon in the anime. 

And I swear I seldom ever cry at the movies.

TTATT I managed to get through Hughes's death, but the funeral scene was what made me bawl. True, it had funny parts- Which is what made it good :3 A nice balance

Same for me..

Not sure if this is any more spoiler then what is said already, but incase
I was like.. what.. no.. they killed.. .. and I was sad but okay. even the funeral I was okay until then Elisia ...  

http://www.metacafe.com/watch/1160976/funeral_for_maes_hughes/

I still cry here. Then when they take about him on the train, not knowing he had died.

[CLAP_attack]

Waaah ; A;   The anime ' Basalisk ' and ' Aquarion ' made me cry my soul out! so darn sad!!      Also Mao's death from Code Geass made me BAWL.

[Sakis01]

I haven't seen a lot of animes that would make me cry. It was only Fruits Basket that made me cry and I bawled like a baby.

[xcthulhux]

i haven't been reading the thread, so i don't know what has been posted, but there have been a few series that made me cry.
one of them was berserk. the ending was so twisted, it made me cry.(trying not to spoil anything here)
another was elfen lied. i cried twice during that series. once at the part where they kill the dog, and once again at the endish.
last but not least, pokemon. the episode when ash was going to leave pikachu with the pikachu colony dealio.
totally made me cry when i was a little kid.

[Sakis01]

Now that you mentioned Pokemon, I remembered that the one thing that made me cry was when Ash was supposedly dead in the first movie with Mewto. Pikachu couldn't stop crying and that made me cry.

[xcthulhux]

[NARUNIK]

i saw it opening day, and i swear that everybody in the theatre was in tears.

awwww me 2 man, me 2..i love pikachu..

[Sakis01]

I remember seeing it in theaters. I think my dad left because he didn't like the idea that I was sobbing out loud in the theater with everyone else.

[NARUNIK]

Naruto makes me cry so much. I feel his pain...Eureka seven made me cry a lot when Eureka kept on ignoring Renton and the part when Eureka was about to die..


I know Harry Potter is not a anime but..it made me cry at least twice in every book..but it was a happy cry..

Spice and Wolf almost made me cry but..I WAS TO HAPPY TO CRY!

[Rexyisashark]

Now that you mentioned Pokemon, I remembered that the one thing that made me cry was when Ash was supposedly dead in the first movie with Mewto. Pikachu couldn't stop crying and that made me cry.

^{In agreement. I was like, "NOOOOOOOOOO."
And my dad was sitting on the couch with me, looking like he didn't know what to do.
Because when a six-year-old who doesn't cry flips that bad over a cartoon? Man.}

[The_Geek]

The whole last half of  Clannad episode nine. Oh dear Hypnos...
Not exactly anime, but I recently watched volume two of kill bill on the television. I was crying. My mother was counting the steps down aloud in a bored tone.

[ThiefKingsHier]

 Oh, if we re talking about video games-

 FVII- Actually, not the part your thinking of. It was more a song ( Music seems to get to me more than anything) and not 'Aeris' theme' the song when you go on the 'date' in the Gold Saucer not long before she dies.

 Valkyrie profile- the only part of the characters 'lives' you get to see is when they die and they really try to make it sad.

[NARUNIK]

I was sorta happy when Aerith died...( WORST PERSON YOU COULD HAVE IN YOUR PARTY) Speaking of music...EUREKA 7 dramaticness...and all those sad songs in the NARUTO  soundtrack such as "Alone" and others...

[oslapedo]

Clannad Spoilerz up to ep. 8

Fuuko's arc makes me a bit weepy, with everyone forgetting her. Nagisa crying is bad enough but when even Tomoya tears up it's too much ;A;

[@random]

I was sorta happy when Aerith died...( WORST PERSON YOU COULD HAVE IN YOUR PARTY) Speaking of music...EUREKA 7 dramaticness...and all those sad songs in the NARUTO  soundtrack such as "Alone" and others...

Being happy when Aeris/th died... well, obviously you hate freedom and want the terrorists to win. (^_~)

Joking aside, you reminded me of one I'd forgotten - the second Bleach OP, in the context of (spoiler) Rukia giving herself up to be executed.

[Kallika]

Hmm..I don't know if I've ever cried from an anime..maybe Chrono Crusade..I forgot if I did though because I haven't watched it in a really long time...yeah I guess maybe Tsubasa Chronicles...

[nikkiolie]

Not sure if someone mentioned this. I would assume that they did. Gurren Lagann episode 8. For those that seen it you know. I haven't gotten farther than that but I hear there are other sad parts. 

Like the second episode of Pokemon, when Pikachu is a little dick and Ash does everything he can to protect him.

[fleur_fraise]

So I am a wuss and most stuff makes me cry.

BUT ROZEN MAIDEN, OH MAN.

I have a long weekend, so I decided to sit down and finish the first and second seasons since I'm going to cosplay Hinaichigo, and I figured I should get her character better.
The title of this thread has a spoiler warning, so I'm not even going to bother, but below this is HARDCORE ROZEN MAIDEN SPOILERS

So in Traumend, season 2, Hinaichigo dies. Slowly. In the arms of a crying girl.
I was sobbing, dudes.
And she's like "It's okay, I'm not a child anymore" and the toys disappearing from that other-world-place-whatever oh my god DX And then the other chick like screams her name and just thinking about it is making me tear up ;-;

The end of Jigoku Shoujo also made me cry, with the dad being like "sorry I was a dick" and everyone was crying.

[oslapedo]

Clannad ~ After Story. THERE WERE MANY TEARS.

[BlackjackGabbiani]

Goddammit Pokémon stop making me cry.

This past week's Japanese episode and what Cyrus did to himself. I know he was an evil bastard but...wow. It was almost touching, considering that he basically got what he wanted, even though it condemned him. If he survived the attack (there's debate if the attack on the portal only destroyed the portal or if it took out the entire new creation), he's still mortal and he'll age, drifting forever in a universe he created but can never affect.

[NARUNIK]

I was sorta happy when Aerith died...( WORST PERSON YOU COULD HAVE IN YOUR PARTY) Speaking of music...EUREKA 7 dramaticness...and all those sad songs in the NARUTO  soundtrack such as "Alone" and others...

Joking aside, you reminded me of one I'd forgotten - the second Bleach OP, in the context of (spoiler) Rukia giving herself up to be executed.

Yeah.. That was truly epic.. An then Ichigo was like "RUKIA!!!!!!".. Anyways...I stopped watching BLEACH because of that 2 seasons frakin long BOUNT filler. I think I might skip the filler and start watching it again. Before I used to say that BLEACH was really bloody...THEN I SAW AFRO SAMURAI...AND WOAH,...I WAS WRONG.,,

[fanboy!]

I'm a freaking baby my god I cried on Naruto when zabuza died next to haku, also in inuyasha when the little girl sees that kikiyo isn't human that crushed ive cried on alot of other but those kinda stand out

[Darknight2433]

Nabari just got on the list with  Yoite, and uh for video games Star Ocean 4 made me bawl like crazy.

[Sakis01]

Oh... did you finish it?

[Darknight2433]

Yeah, heeee. It's addicting.

[RozenMaiden_Girl]

Elfen Lied! My second fave anime! And at the end I REALLY cried! (Did Lucy die?) I think so.

[tofutakeout]

Not sure if anyone has mentioned this but I just watched "The girl who leapt through time" today and I got a little teary eyed. I mean First she "almost" loses one of her good friends with an innocent girl beside him. Then the guy she actually likes(that took her the whole movie to figure that out) disappears twice and you don't actually get to see them officially together in the end.

But the movie did make me laugh a lot as well. It was a nice balance.

[Saki-the-cat]

Hmm, well the first anime i cried at was Pokemon the first movie, at the ending.
The second anime i cried at was InuYasha, the episode when InuYasha's friends got in that fire and almost died.
The third time i cried was at Death Note, I think you can guess why.
Countless times at countless Hayao Miyazaki films.
aaand multipul times at Axis Powes Hetalia, I was laughing so hard i cried xDD

[cloud-9]

FMA and deathnote did that to me, but there were a few animes i have watched where the endings are so disappointing it's almost worth crying over. does that count? lol

[Tanuki19]

I cried when Franz died in Ganukutsuo......both times i watched it. T___T

[Higuma]

the newest one to make me cry was Asuma's Death on Naruto Shippuden. Actually it was more Shikamaru's reaction to his death that really got to me.

[jaybug]

Ya know, I think I semi-conciously don't let myself cry, ever since I saw this thread. I know there  have been a few that have made the tears well up, but no do not let them fall over! lol

But I think Kanon was the most recently viewed, no Clannad After Story, that made me either cry or about cry. Either one, they both moved me watching them, and I think they are both superb.

[jaybug]

I think it was episode 5, or maybe 6 of Sora no Woto about got me to teariness. But it was a heartwarming thing, not due to sadness.

[soundninja12]

- Gurren Lagann (lots of times ;o;)
- Wolf's Rain (THE END :'O)

Those are the two I cried the most in ;o;

[Wuntvor]

Just watched the final two episodes of Kobato.  It is Pita Ten all over again!   

[IcyMelon]

Cried when Lockon died in Gundam 00 TTATT, Toradora when Taiga found out she loved Ryuji,
Nabari no Ou...YOITE! ;A; and a lots more ;^;

[Kimiski]

Clannad ~ After Story. THERE WERE MANY TEARS.

lol I feel you on that one xD
Freaking DEPRESSSINNGGGG

[CheshireStray]

Pretty much the last episode of any anime makes me cry. Or whenever a character leaves.
But in particular...
L's death in Death Note. Was reading that sucker in class the first time, and i literally burst into tears. Plenty of awkward looks.
Several odd moments in Pandora Hearts, like Cheshire dying, or Oz catching Alice, etc... just cuz the emotion comes over so well.
Tons of stuff from FMA, particularly Hughes and Nina's deaths...
Episode 74 (yes i have memorized 8D) of Shugo Chara Doki, when Tadase confesses to Amu and Ikuto has to listen and do nothing from her closet.... TT-TT
Momo being betrayed by Aizen in Bleach...
much more. Ima stop now, cuz im pretty much tearing up thinking back on L... *sniffle*

[thesirensings]

Oh, jeez, I could go on forever about this.

Let's see,

Fruit's Basket vol. 6 (I was in the cafeteria at lunch and everyone kept turning to stare at me)
FMA
Elfen Lied (last episode)

I think I cried the most over things in the time period of Feb 08-Sept 08. Dealing with one-sided love turned me into an emotional wreak and I started crying at EVERYTHING having to do with couples. Watching my friend play FFX had me bawling uncontrollably. And Elfen Lied. And Princess Tutu. And random crap on the internet.

Damn. I feel like a wuss. O_o

[Higuma]

Tokyo magnitude 8.0- if you dont cry at the end you dont have a soul!

[SadisticVampire]

I've cried during a few series. I cried over Nabari no Ou, Tsubasa Chronicles and Wolf's Rain.
All amazing animes, but all sad as well.

[Raveen92]

The ending to the original FMA series and the Hughes death in Brotherhood

Spoiler












Al's death/sacrifice in the manga chapter 107

[shadoworganoid]

Wolfs Rain ending... Sigh.... Too many deaths...

Code Geass R2 ending. It was a happy sad.
"The demon lelouch is dead! Release the prisoners!" ~ Cornelia

[Karu]

Everyone said Wolf's Rain, and so will I. Dead puppies... ;-;

And oh goodness, Saikano was bad for me.
The ninth episode where Akemi dies so horribly, made me bawl and not want to finish it. Dx

The last episode of Elfen Lied was cry-tastic for me too. I wanted more!

[Jazzmin-anime]

Death Note and Sailor Moon Drove me mad!!!! I cried like 5 times in Sailor moon and at least 2 time sin Death Note./

[Higuma]

Clannad- After Story made my whole family cry.

[YouLikeRice]

The end of Kobato, even though I found the whole series to be rather mediocre. D:

[Saki-the-cat]

Grave of the fireflies.
I think we can all agree on that one.

[Firewolf56]

Well, I'll join the group and say Wolf's Rain. I actually didn't when Kiba went, but Toboe and Hige made me burst into tears. 

Oh! And Ginga Densetsu Weed! When the little puppy's father was dying and he was begging for forgiveness and the pup kept on saying "You aren't my Father!"

[lychee-twist]

The ending of Cowboy Bebop.

"Bang."

[Naruchan]

Code Geass: >: I was grieving Lelouch for days~!
DragonBall Z: When Goku died the first time, when Vegeta almost died, I think. When Krillin died! When CELL ATE ANDROID 17! I was like, 7 and I was bawling, and scared and my mom had to calm me down!
FMA: When Hughes died. :/
Avatar: When Zuko had random depressing flashbacks.
Naruto: When sasuke just left naruto all passed out in the rain after their horribly epic battle that took like 4 episodes. ( you know the one!)
Sailor moon black dream hole: I think it was when she was about to lose and all the sailor scouts had to give their powers to her. XD I don't remember.
S-Cry-Ed: Whenever Kazuma got hurt... >: I Rove that guy.

[Jacob_Blackfeather]

I cried through Nana
Nausicaa
ponyo
pokemon... I was young!

[Firewolf56]

I cried through Nana
Nausicaa
ponyo
pokemon... I was young!

I agree. I was somewhere between 4 and 6 when I watched the first pokemon movie. I didn't care about Ash, but seeing Pikachu so sad made me cry. My mom saw me and said, "It's okay. It's only an anime."

[flyinvee11]

Kuroshitsuji. I had to excuse myself from the living room for about 20 minutes after the finale.

[thesirensings]

I just remembered another thing I'm pretty sure made me cry. That one episode of Pokemon where Ash and Pikachu find that Pikachu colony in the forest and Ash is all, "Pikachu is having so much fun, maybe I should leave him here. I think he'd be happier." and then that song played with a bunch of flashbacks.

;;;;;;;;A;;;;;;;; Noooooooooo, you need each other! Don't leeeeeeeeeave him behiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiind! *sobs like a little girl*

[Sakurakisser]

The anime "Erin" has some pretty sappy moments..

[Romo]

I remember "Angel Beats!" did at some points....it's such an amazing anime overall. Also the end of "Uta Kata". Sad times, sad times.

[RokusasuKun]

-The last two episodes of the first FMA anime (y'know...with Envy's Edkabob and all that stuff...and when Hughes died, in all forms T^T)

-The first Pokemon movie, when Ash gets turned to stone. I STILL cry at that... >.>

-The ending to FFVII: Adevnt Children (I count it...), when you see Aerith and Zach at the end when everyone's in the church all happy and shizz T^T

-The Cowboy Bebop ending </3

And...that's all I can think of at the moment, boo >.>

DUDEOHMYGODTHATEPISODE.
The saddest one EVER T^T

[Sakurakisser]

ERIN made me cry, first the baby tohda that she took care of was gonna get its membranes snipped off, and then her mother died, and the list goes on and on. i do recommend it.

[StarryShay]

Kuroshitsuji 2 episode 7

[DancingDemyx]

Full Moon wo Sagashite.
SRSLY.
When she learns that Eiichi is dead...Ohman. I cried for hours. Same with the ending, though that was in happiness/sadness for it to be over.
It's still one of my favorite animes, no doubt.

And when Hughes died in FMA, of course...
And Pokemon. The first movie. Aaaaash. D:

[Washougal_Otaku]

My girlfriend cried to a part in Sailor Moon; the part where Neptune dies for the first time, then Uranus kills herself because of it.

[lychee-twist]

^Yeah, those cousins do some crazy things sometime

So it's not anime, but the episode of Futurama, "Jurassic Bark" gets me every time. I've got a small lump right now thinking of poor Seymour waiting for Fry.

This isn't counting "Luck of the Fryish" either. Man, Futurama's got some serious heart-massacring episodes.

[Washougal_Otaku]

I recently watched an episode of InuYasha from season 1.  I believe the episode number was,... 15?  Anyway, it's the one where that big ball ghost piper guides the souls of kids to the afterlife.  It ALMOST made me cry at the end.

[Higuma]

Chrono Crusade made my oldest daughter cry. (She is 11)

[Zangetsu]

I think the first time I ever cried from an anime had to be Naruto. I had seen it a billion times but when Zabuza and Haku died it really hit me just that one time for some reason. Also, the Elfen Lied manga made me cry too! (Manga ending way sadder than anime ending!)

[thesirensings]

DIGIMON.

[kalagei]

DIGIMON.

Omg there were so many parts at the end of S1 and all over S2...

watching them as they aired... made me a very messed up child lol.

[Washougal_Otaku]

Chrono Crusade made my oldest daughter cry. (She is 11)

I think almost everyone I've ever heard say that they've seen that series cried or came close to it.  I read the manga first, so the anime kind of irritated me at various points, especially the ending.  It wasn't even close to that in the manga...

[Ichi_Kagetora]

I cried during the end credits of the second to last episode of Petite Princess Yucie. They made you think she was going to never remember the friends that sacrificed themselves at the end of the competition and it left the worst feeling ever at how sad she was.   ((((

[hikomarukun]

This anime is a little... well, messed up. But School Days - that anime made me go crazy!

[Wuntvor]

I was just watching Paprika.  The scene where the detective is drunk in the virtual bar and reminiscing about his friend who died after getting accepted into film school.  I had just heard about Satoshi Kon's death, which is why we were watching Paprika.  For some reason that scene just hit me emotionally.  We will all miss you Satoshi!

[Blue Leader]

As stupid as it may sound, I got a little teary-eyed during the first episode of New Fists of the North Star where the little girl was killed.

And I got teary-eyed way too often during Kanon.

And yes, I even got teary-eyed a few times watching Kaleido Star. Ugh, I really am a wuss. >>;;

[Naruchan]

I rewatched some Avatar recently, and I began getting really connected with Zuko (because I was cosplaying him)
And when we have confused and angry, I felt that way at the time. So I got a little teary-eyed seeing my inner feelings reflect in his characters mood.

[EveofAbyss]

It's not Japanese, but it is an animated feature, and a serious one at that - The Plague Dogs. I watched that last night, and it broke my heart to a million pieces, and each of those pieces broke to pieces, and each of those pieces broke...which just sort of became dust at that point, sooo I just have this heart dust floating around my chest.

It's a very sad movie, very realistic, about two dogs who escape from a lab of terrible experiments and cruel tests. It just keeps going downhill to a bittersweet conclusion, at which point I was sniffling and sobbing like a baby.

[BlackLaceAndPearl]

Well, FMA made me tear up many times for many reasons. When Nina Tucker died, for one.
But the anime that really made me sob was Kuroshitsuji, as strange as it sounds.

In the last two episodes, Sebastian is gone, and that helplessness that Ciel must have been feeling really got to me. The fact that he kept trying when he really was losing hope. And the fact that after having Sebastian by his side for two years, and after what happened to him before Sebastian came along, he's completely alone, in a foreign country, with no money, at a critical point. No one should have to go through all that. I had mascara all over my face by the time I was done with the last two episodes. I took a picture of myself. It's not very pretty. Black everywhere.

I've never heard of Kuroshitsuji, but sounds impacting. I'll have to check it out.

[childofthemoor]

I am pretty sure I cried during Spirited Away, but that was so long ago I hardly remember.

In FMA, when Hughes died. I still can't even think of that. I loved him so much.

[EveofAbyss]

In FMA, when Hughes died. I still can't even think of that. I loved him so much.

Oh, geez. I thought that scene was hard to watch in the original, but it was even heavier in the reboot. The daughter's dialogue in that scene just break your heart.

[BlackLaceAndPearl]

Kuroshitsuji really got to me, but I'm also an emotional wimp sometimes.   
When Hughes died, oh my goodness. I almost cried at that. I could feel myself tearing up. And Marta too. It was just such a horrible way to kill someone. I was kinda too shocked to cry after that. But I kept thinking about it, trying to describe it to myself. It was just so horrible.

The ending of Ouran always made me cry happy tears. It was just so sweet. I was squealing and smiling and getting all teary at the same time. 

The last episode of the second season of Kuroshitsuji is coming up, and I'm not really seeing a way out of the current situation in just one episode, but I'm sure I'll be crying. I'll let you know. 

[childofthemoor]

Oh, geez. I thought that scene was hard to watch in the original, but it was even heavier in the reboot. The daughter's dialogue in that scene just break your heart.

I knoooow. Especially since in Brotherhood the scene was longer, and his death more dragged out...you had the impression that maybe it would be different this time around, in this version.

[Wuntvor]

Just finished watching Seikimatsu Occult Gakuin aka Occult Academy Ep# 10  There were tears.   

[tofutakeout]

I forgot about one that I had watched a few years ago. Emma is so sweet and light hearted. I bawled so much when I watched and read it.

[Wuntvor]

Watched episode 24 of K-on!! (Note the 2 explanation points that indicate season two).  It is the final episode, although they show a preview for a special at the end.  I don't know why I cried exactly, it is just an emotional scene, and I am a softie.

They wrote Azusa a goodbye song and sing it to her after graduation.   

[Venusgate]

What anime made me cry? I'd have to say Black Blood Brothers. Ho-ho  .... Sorry, little humor in this rainy thread.

For serious though, in order of increasing tearitude:

Blood+ spoiler: When her little brother Riku dies after vampire sexing near the end. Those were more WTF-tears.

Kure-nai: Whole damn anime was built to pluck heartstrings.

Toradora: Don't get me freakin' started.

[Nemrith]

When it comes to Samurai Champloo I didn't really cry, I thought it was very clever making it so that I could watch it in circles. Although Wolf's Rain did make me cry, such a sad ending... :C

[CheshireStray]

Scratch anything i posted in this thread previously.
Last episode of Kuroshitsuji-Season 1.
I still open that up every time i need a good cry... ;~;

[Javie]

I know everyone has one. I just started watching Tsubasa Chronicle and I know I will end up crying at least once before the series is over. Have you ever cried while watching anime? or had an anime that really got to you in some way?

I gotta say,I felt terribly bad for Syaoran when I started reading it..once Sakura obtained her second feather.. I know I will cry sometime!

[Washougal_Otaku]

I've heard that Clannad is really sad, but that's all I've heard about it.  Does anyone recommend the series for any reason other than it being sad?

[Wuntvor]

I've heard that Clannad is really sad, but that's all I've heard about it.  Does anyone recommend the series for any reason other than it being sad?

Clannad is sad because it is so good.  You really get to like, even love, the characters, so you care about what happens to them.

If you enjoy watching anime like Kanon, Air, To Heart, and Kimi Ga Nozomu Eien (Rumbling Hearts) then give Clannad a try.  You won't be disappointed.   

[KikiRisu]

An anime tha made me cry was kanon. QQ And it still does.

[Washougal_Otaku]

@wuntvor - Never seen any of those; haven't even heard of some of them...

I've never really thought about it before, but I think the ending of Blue Seed was kind of sad, but the good sad.  Momiji "dies" for all of Japan; then Susano-oh blesses her, bringing her back to life.  Touching moment...

[Wuntvor]

   WHAT!     I find it hard to believe you haven't seen or heard of these.  For that genre of anime they are all classics.  The tear jerker drama anime that make you think soap opera and dating sim.  In fact Kanon was done as an anime not once, but twice.  It is like Negima and FMA in that regard.  To Heart is so popular it had a sequel and an alternate version plus some OVA's and a spin-off series called Comic Party which also had a sequel.  Air was originally released as a TV series and was so popular it got released as a movie in 2005 and played in theaters.  Rumbling Hearts was pretty popular, and I know it has been English dubbed and been available for quite some time.  It is also one of the best tragic love triangle animes on the market.  Discussions on which girl Takayuki should have gone with have been argued on threads for years.

Your comment about Blue Seed reminded me of another anime that made me cry, Figure 17.  I may have mentioned it on this thread before, I can't remember.  The end did have me crying pretty hard.   

[Washougal_Otaku]

Yeah, the ones that I've never heard of were "To Heart" and "Air."

I've heard great things about "Figure 17."

[Pots]

Hanbun no Tsuki ga Noboru Sora is really sad but I like it The art is adorable.

[Titus_Love_Doll]

H2O made me cry

[@random]

An anime tha made me cry was kanon. QQ And it still does.

Just my opinion, but I'd have to say Kanon is probably the undisputed champion of the thread. It's the only one I know of that makes virtually everyone cry their eyes out.

But it would do it a disservice to say that's all it does. It teaches a lot of good life lessons along the way, hidden under the drama.

[Maiku]

Many animes have made me cry, I'm kinda a crier at sad things.  Heck, I almost cried in the recent episode of symbiotic titan when they were taking mushi out to space to die - and that's a kids show.

The first anime that made me cry though was Cowboy Bebop, the ending was just so poetic and sad. 

Though there are animes that make me cry more then others Kanon and Grave of the Fireflys are the big two.

[tofutakeout]

Kuragehime. The new one I'm watching. >///>

[Washougal_Otaku]

Grave of the Fireflys

Definately.  Fireflies.  Sad moments.

[Higuma]

I've heard that Clannad is really sad, but that's all I've heard about it.  Does anyone recommend the series for any reason other than it being sad?

I is very well done. Good story and Characters. The first season is not so sad but the second season (Clannad After Story) will make even the most hardened tough guy shed waterfalls.

There is Clannad (22 eps + 2 specials, alternate ending), Clannad After Story (22 eps + 3 specials, alternate ending) and Clannad the Motion Picture (w/1 special recap).  I would recommend watching the series before the movie, or it will spoil everything for you.

That is typically how it goes, thanks.  I'll probably give it a shot after I'm done with Maison Ikkoku.

[Washougal_Otaku]

I don't remember if this has been mentioned or not, but there's one episode of FullMetal Alchemist: Brotherhood that almost made me cry.  The soldier who had the cute 3-year-old daughter that he was so proud of, crying about how her daddy needed to finish his work as his colleagues bury his casket.

[Akahata]

I know people have said this already, but I cried during FMA when Hughes died. And I started crying even harder when his daughter didn't know why they were burying daddy 

[Vexenification]

I started crying while watching the Black Butler season 1 ending... When they shot Plu-Plu TT^TT

[Ichi_Kagetora]

I just saw Ouran High school Host Club and the ending made me cry....

[sandrobotticelli]

I don't know if it's been mentioned yet, but Samurai X. :[

Also, the Fruits Basket manga made me cry quite a bit actually. I love that series.

[AgehaIX]

I don't know if it's been mentioned yet, but Samurai X. :[

;A; so much yes.

[Washougal_Otaku]

Also, the Fruits Basket manga made me cry quite a bit actually. I love that series.

I've heard that before.


I'm rewatching the second season of Bleach.  The storyline is longer than I thought; does that count as an anime that makes me cry?

[Psych]

Also, the Fruits Basket manga made me cry quite a bit actually. I love that series.

Ahh, me too surprisingly. That's the first and only manga that's ever made me cry, and it managed to do it a couple times. I'm usually pretty stoic while reading/watching sad scenes in works of fiction.

This isn't an anime, but the Vocaloid song "Paper Airplanes" made me start bawling all of the sudden when I first saw it. None of the other ones ever have. I think it's because that series of songs is based vaguely off real events and those always make me cry.


One thing that DIDN'T make me cry, though, was the ending of Professor Layton and the Unwound Future. Everyone else I've ever talked to that has played it say that they did, but I couldn't. (I don't think it helped that I'd spoiled myself on the ending in Japanese before seeing the events leading up to it, but even without that the plot was sort of...easy for me to guess what was going to happen.)

[NARUNIK]

Bobobo makes me cry so much, it's so funny!

[Seraph]

*peeps in*

...Macross Frontier.  Episode 20.  That is all.

*sneaks out*

[Saki-the-cat]

I'm not sure if i said this or not but..

Kuroshitsuji.
I cried at the first season because..well..it was sad as eff at the end.
and i cried at the second season because i was so disapointed at the end...

[Chibachi Nero]

The last episode of Nabari no Ou. Just. The ending. I started bawling. My mom was so confused when I ran up to her and started sobbing into her shoulder.

Also the ending of Wolf's Rain, as a few people have mentioned, especially what happens to Tsume. Every time I watch it I just want to give him a great big hug.

[TurboSaiyanJason]

I don't remember if this has been mentioned or not, but there's one episode of FullMetal Alchemist: Brotherhood that almost made me cry.  The soldier who had the cute 3-year-old daughter that he was so proud of, crying about how her daddy needed to finish his work as his colleagues bury his casket.

I know people have said this already, but I cried during FMA when Hughes died. And I started crying even harder when his daughter didn't know why they were burying daddy 

Yes, that one. I didn't shed a tear, but would imagine that Ed and Al were/would be pretty super saiyan 2 about it. And Sonny Strait got such a short time playing him.

Since I haven't seen the end of the anime, the end of the manga: Chobits. I didn't cry, but I was a little sad about how it ended, what Hideki had to choose or...something something dark side would happen! (resist spoiler revealing!)

[Washougal_Otaku]

Episode 11 of El Hazard: The Wanderers.

[Titus_Love_Doll]

Episode 11 of El Hazard: The Wanderers.

one that really made me cry. was Grave of the fireflies.

[Washougal_Otaku]

^ Me too.

[Gryffinclaw Princess]

CLANNAD!!! T.T
It was soooo sad at so many points!!!

[Dragard]

Code Geass, when Rolo passed away and Elfin Lied. The entire show was sad.

[Chibachi Nero]

one that really made me cry. was Grave of the fireflies.

The toughest, absolutely least sentimental person I know cried at that one.

[Washougal_Otaku]

Elfin Lied. The entire show was sad.

Really?  It made me LOL when I saw it...

[Su Lu]

Air TV, X/1999, Tsubasa Chronicle (wait... that was the manga)
overall I think I cry more when I read manga.

[Naruchan]

When I was younger.... MUCH MUCH YOUNGER!
I can't recall what episode AT ALL! But I know I cried at an episode of Digimon.... I HAVE NO IDEA WHICH ONE!
BUT I DID! XD I REMEMBER IT!
OHHH! AND I CRIED REALLY HARD! WHEN I WATCHED THE EPISODE OF DBZ WHERE ANDROID 18 GOT SUCKED INTO CELL! D'''''''X FOREVER CRYING I WAS!

[CheshireStray]

As far as this season goes, Ano Hi Mita Hana no Namae wo Bokutachi wa Mada Shiranai is only three episodes in (fourth is airing as i type this, actually), and already has me bitterly crying the bitch tears.

It should be illegal to write characters this relatable.

[Wuntvor]

Just finished watching Moshidora (Moshi Koko Yakyu no Joshi Manager ga Drucker no Management o Yondara) episode 09.  Even though it wasn't a surprise, there were plenty of tears. 

[Washougal_Otaku]

"Visions of Escaflowne" made my girlfriend cry.

[BlackjackGabbiani]

When I was younger.... MUCH MUCH YOUNGER!
I can't recall what episode AT ALL! But I know I cried at an episode of Digimon.... I HAVE NO IDEA WHICH ONE!
BUT I DID! XD I REMEMBER IT!

Do you at least remember which season? I can help you recall the most gut-wrenching moments in the first four seasons.

[aradia]

Gah... the list goes on and on... Here's what comes immediately to mind...

Toradora, Clannad, Elfen Lied, Angel Beats, FMA, Welcome to the NHK, K-On (yes, really *pbbt*)

[Fachion-pari]

Anohana! The most recent episode had me bawling nonstop, haha.

[Drauska]

FMA...that really cool character that was shot in the phone booth.  (don't want to spoil it, but if you watched am I right or what?)

Cowboy Beebop...need i say more?   

[TalaRedWolf33]

Wolf's Rain the was the first one to make me cry. Then Inuyasha lol Then, before I was even into Cowboy Bepbop, I saw the last episode and cried through almost the whole thing. I learned what it was, and then started watching the series.
Spirited Away, Ponyo, and Graveyard of Fireflies all make me cry. And, though some may not know this movie, Voices of a Distant Star made me cry like my best friend had just died. It was the most beautiful movie ever.

[lychee-twist]

Graveyard of the Fireflies!

Part of me loves that movie, and the other part just says "Never again." So, so sad. Realistically sad, too, and that's the worst kind sometimes

[EveofAbyss]

I'm with you on that, Lychee. I watched it once, and it will forever remain in my memory as an amazing movie, but the kind of heart-brutalizing amazing that scares me away from ever watching it again. Like a lion that is beautiful but you know will eat you if you get too close, I love it from afar. I don't think I can watch it again, though, lol.

[Higuma]

To date here are the anime that have made me cry. Starting with the saddest.

1. Clannad After Story- the saddest anime in existence.

2. Tokyo Magnatude 8.0- even more so due to recent happenings.

3. Fullmetal Alchemist- Huges(nuff said)

4. Grave of Fireflies- I knew the ending before I watched it so it had less of an impact.

5. Naruto Shippuuden- Has gotten very good lately with heart renching moments of characters death.

Anime that did not make me cry but sure got to me emotionally

1. Gurren Lagann

2.Bokurano

3. Cowboy Bebop

may post more later

4. Chrono Crusade- Forgot about this one(thanks Titus)

[Titus_Love_Doll]

Chrono Crusade
Grave of the fire flys
Gungrave some parts were really sad that i tears up on
Wolfs rain.
code g. My fav charater died and i cryed and stoped watching it after the frist few episodes why did he have to die so soon ;-;

And the big big big tear jerker that ever got me was baskaik (cant spell) the ending made me cry and romeo x juliet

[tofutakeout]

I'm surprised I never came back here and stated after finishing Darker than black that it made me cry like a baby.

(though I might have I can't find my post. >_>)

[Wuntvor]

Just watched final episode of Ano Hi Mita Hana no Namae o Bokutachi wa Mada Shiranai.   

[Kallika]

King of Thorn almost made me cry :/

Ao No exorcist made me cry in the I think the second episode.

[Chibachi Nero]

Manga rather than anime, but - the scene at the end of Tsubasa: Reservoir Chronicle where "Syaoran" and "Sakura" are reunited in Hong Kong, and they go speechless and hug each other was one of the most heart-wrenching things I've ever seen. It's not even sad, it just got to me in a weird way and put me on the verge of tears.

And teh ending of Samurai 7. So bittersweet...

I cried too D:

[Washougal_Otaku]

I know that many of you have been saying Chrono Crusade.  I've read the manga, and that came close to making me cry.  However, by the time I read it, I knew the basics on how the anime ended, and the manga storyline is AMAZINGLY emotional.  I have seen some of the anime since I finished the manga (not the ending, though) and truthfully, some of the changes sort of pissed me off, such as Rosette experiencing stigmata.  (I would like to see it in full, though, but only if it's in the English dub; I know that they set the script to match the speech-styles of that time period, which makes it great by default).

[Dubaby]

Just watched final episode of Ano Hi Mita Hana no Namae o Bokutachi wa Mada Shiranai.   

SAME HERE!!!!

AnoHana has been a pretty killer show as far as "Bawwww" factor goes to begin with.... but I was literally doing that ugly cry where you have to gasp for air every once in awhile for pretty much the entire last episode.... Episode 5 was another really tough one for me in that show, but that's just because for some reason I really love Yukiatsu. =/

[ironmonkey]

Came close to crying at Mai Mai Miracle because it touches on every emotional childhood memory, even though I didn't grow up in Japan and my childhood was nothing like that. An amazing job by the film makers to find the universal human experiences within the particular facts of the story.

[StarryShay]

I cried so hard at the end of Honey and Clover. < / 3

[Higuma]

I cried so hard at the end of Honey and Clover. < / 3

My daughter is hooked on this anime. She said she cried too.

[Ritsu-chan]

Shuffle, strawberry panic and fruits basket, I died crying T~T

[lilyrosa143]

What about the end of Code geass?! I cryed a little when *will not spoil* died. I couldn't belive it! And he made *also will not spoil* do it! SOOOO SAD even if it did have to happen!!!! EVEN SADDER THAN WHEN EUPHIMIA DIED!!!!!

[Lylandra76]

I am such a crybaby, I cry when anyone dies, unless I hate them that is. Some of the anime that really got me are Cowboy bebop, Naruto, FMA, Wolf's Rain, Weis Kreuz, Sayuki, Avatar the last airbender, Trinty Blood, Trigun, Evangelion, Black butler, Darker than black, ect. I have come to the conclusion that anything I watch will make me cry at some point, and my favorite charactor almost always dies! Sooo annoying!

[Ritsu-chan]

OMG yessss FMA, I bawl evertime I watch the epsiodes where hughes dies and nina dies T~T I loooove hughes!

[Lylandra76]

Too true I cryed a few times but mostly at the end. Sooo Saaad! Another one that got me was Angel Sanctuary, the manga got me way worse than the DVD. Last Exile got me when Dio dies

[Chromophobic]

I cried when I watched the last episode of Elfen Lied. (I love that anime sooo much.)

[tofutakeout]

I cried when I watched the last episode of Elfen Lied. (I love that anime sooo much.)

Agreed. That and the scene with the dog.

AnoHana is the hardest I have ever cried at any fictional thing in my life. I also became a little depressed for the next 3 days after I watched it. And every time I hear the ending theme I get a little upset deep in muh heart (It doesn't help that my best friend set it as his ringtone.)

I just went and watched the last 5 minutes of the last episode because me and a bunch of my friends are going to be coplaying from it and we wanted to make Menma's letters to carry around with us and I freaking lost it again and started bawling. I think it's going to be someone else job to get us reference pictures for that...

[Ritsu-chan]

I cried at gurren lagann, a lot.. But not over nia, I ended up actually hating that character!

[HalcyonFour]

I know everyone has one. I just started watching Tsubasa Chronicle and I know I will end up crying at least once before the series is over. Have you ever cried while watching anime? or had an anime that really got to you in some way?

*spoiler alert*

I seriously cry in every anime, but Naruto is a sob fest for me. When the Third Hokage died, I cried. When Asuma and Jiraya died, I cried. Anything that involved Rock Lee losing his powers and improving, I cried. When Naruto grew as a ninja multiple times, I cried.

I cried when Ulquiorra died.

I cried in the manga (and Korean drama) Boys Over Flowers, when Makino went through all that angst with Domyoji.

I cried in Sailor Moon, when Darien dumped Serena.

Come to think of it, when DIDN'T I cry in anime?

[Naitron]

So many really made me cry or get a little teary eyed to be honest.  I'll try to remember

Wolf's Rain
Here is Greenwood
Full Metal Alchemist
Grave of The Fireflies (heartbreaking movie)
Crest/Banner of The Stars (I want more!  I really disliked the novel translation)
Vision of Escaflowne
Tenchi Muyo series
Trigun
Voices of a Distant Star
You're Under Arrest OAV

[Donovyn]

FMA Brotherhood

[Best_Name_Ever]

the ending of Fruits Basket and Air TV made me cry,but the most I've ever cried from a anime or anything really xD was Anohana,it was such a sad anime I really loved it though

[dark4ever]

SPOILERS AHEAD
Code Geass. Right at the end, right after Lelouch is stabbed, when Nunally says "I love you, big brother!" As if it's not sad enough he's dead, you  have to throw a crying cripple on top of it... That's honestly the only time I've cried while watching anime...

[Wuntvor]

Just watched episode 43 of Pollyanna.  There were tears.   

[Washougal_Otaku]

I cried when I watched the last episode of Elfen Lied. (I love that anime sooo much.)

Agreed. That and the scene with the dog.

Yes. That scene almost made me throw up cause animal abuse is just not right even in cartoon terms.

That's actually the only episode I haven't seen yet.  The entire series has made me laugh so far, except the episode where we see the young girl being victimized by her foster dad; that pissed me off for many reasons (including that this was shown at my anime club).  I can see the animal abuse, depending on what goes on, being a tear-jerker.

That anime was messed up in so many aspects... Just like...NO. WHAT KIND OF FREAKING KIDS BEAT UP A LITTLE DOG. In the end, it was kind of worth it at the end. It made me happy, also, I laughed at the part when the narrarator said "QUAGMIRE."

[CyberIncision]

I dunno.... I've been overwhelmingly sad... But I can't recall when I've cried... I feel not normal now! Someone quick! Give me an anime that will make me cry!!!

[TalaRedWolf33]

Graveyard of the fireflies.  Even made my ma cry and she hates anime.

[Animeman73]

I have another anime that made me cry. or in this case rather a scene from it. In this case it's from Eureka Seven.

 When Anemonae is battling Illreka anand Renton undeneath the "Crust" of the Earth in her LFO The End. He wailings over the fact that she only then understood how much Dominic meant to her and the fact she'd never be able to tell him "Or so she thought" her feelings brought a tear to even this Writer's eye. ANd the American dub actress who played Anemonae in my opinion just capture the feeling, the emotion so well that THIS is what makes for good anime.

[Lady In Red]

SPOILERS AHEAD:
Gurren Lagann, when Kamina died.
SO MANY TEARS ;A;

[Washougal_Otaku]

^ That part made me laugh; I know many TTGL fans would hate to hear someone say it, but that's how I felt when I saw it.  Crying tears of amusement...

Oh, yeah, I forgot about the brat beating the dog.  That's taking bullying WAY too far, (as if bullying wasn't horrible enough).  I remember that Quagmire part.  Though I laughed, too, it made sense when you think about what a quagmire is.

[trenityrose12]

The anime Blood+ made me cry! it was so sad at the end!

[Lady In Red]

Gah, yes! And Riku T.T
So sad.

[CosplayGeek4]

One Piece surprisingly made me cry..
<SPOILER if you haven't seen it>
I cried when Bell-mère was killed by Arlong, when Usopp got beat up by the Franky Family for the 200,000,000 berri and when he tried to get it back, and when they burned the Going Merry.

[kittykat1blabla]

No anime really ever has made me cry all that much, but one I recently noticed was One Piece, I'm only about 40 episodes in and I've been brought to tear about 4 times already. Such sad, touching stories. ;n;

[hawk222]

Fullmetal Alchemist, dammit! I don't know why I did it, but I just had to DVR episode 10, and I just finished watching it, and... *sniff* Dammit, why?! And when you've seen the episode, you just know what's coming, and you just can't help but tear up even before it's happened! *bawls*

[Washougal_Otaku]

A couple of days ago, I saw an episodeof Gintama; it may have been the first episode, possibly the second.  Anyway, I didn't cry, but it had a sad moment to it, and I could see someone crying to it...

[NARUNIK]

Aw... Yeah, bro... Usopp loved that ship.. It made me so sad.. And... The flash backs with kid Ace and kid Luffy made me tear up so bad...

[fleur_fraise]

I just finished AnoHana and I think I cried more while watching that than I've ever cried about anything in my life. I was literally sobbing, my nose was running, I couldn't catch my breath, the whole deal.

[dark4ever]

Romeo x Juliet D8 I knew how it was going to end, I knew they would die, but it was still so sad... Also, when the doctor died. That was depressing.

[Chibiorochimaru]

Clannad and Ouran High School Host Club >o>; I get way to attached to main characters then when anything happens I get all emotional.

[Fachion-pari]

Mawaru Penguindrum. Especially the finale episode!

[fleur_fraise]

Mawaru Penguindrum. Especially the finale episode!

OH MY GOD.

I watched the last episode's raw because I couldn't wait for subs and I SOBBED. And I sat on the floor crying for like an hour afterwards while listening to the OST and looking at fanart. And then later that night I watched it a second time (with subs) and sobbed again; but this time I was watching it on a video chat with other people so everyone got to see/hear me have a total breakdown.

I don't know what to do anymore ;A;

[Washougal_Otaku]

Mawaru Penguindrum. Especially the finale episode!

I wanna watch it just because it has "Penguin" in the title.

[Titus_Love_Doll]

Sailor moon still makes me cry when luna starts crying and usagi gose to hug her in the sailor moon movie....;-; makes me cry all the time and the ending of chrono cursade

[Washougal_Otaku]

^ ...are you talking about the one where Luna has a crush on a human and starts crying because she knows he's never going to love her "that way" or was there another time in a different movie?

[Higuma]

Higuma's list of anime guaranteed to make you cry.

1. Clannad: After Story
2. Ano Hana
3. Tokyo Magnitude 8.0
4. Grave of Fireflies
5. Chrono Crusade
6. Full Metal Alchemist (Huges Death)

I there are more but that is all I can think of right now.

[Wuntvor]

My anime that is guaranteed to make you cry is Cross Game Episode 1.  Click the link, watch it, let me know if you cried or not.

Area no Kishi, an anime that started last week, is following the same format.  I will watch episode 2 tomorrow to see if I cry or not.

Thank you for pointing this one out. I know "being able to make you cry" might not sound like much of a recommendation... but very few anime make me feel as much, both good and bad, as Ano Hana just did. And that's a good thing. (^_^)

[Higuma]

I think any anime that can effect you emotionally (Good, Bad or Sad) is a great anime in my book.

[Washougal_Otaku]

This isn't anime, but I just watched an episode of The Simpsons that almost made me cry.  It's the Christmas episode where Bart was caught shoplifting a video game.

[Washougal_Otaku]

Watching Trinity Blood for the first time.  Episode two had a moment that made me tear up a little bit.

[Washougal_Otaku]

Okay, so I finally finished the last episode of Elfen Lied (along with the rest of the series).  I'd forgotten that episode four was a bit of a tear jerker, but thirteen only came close during the last few minutes.

[Chibachi Nero]

paranoia agent is making me cry from fear, does that count?

[Washougal_Otaku]

^ I think it does...

[Yatterman]

does a anime commercial count?

[Washougal_Otaku]

^ I would think so... maybe...

[Lady In Red]

No.6 made me cry so hard.
;A;
Nezumiiiiiiiiiiiii

[4evaRyuk]

Nabari no Ou, so depressing. Maybe FMA (can't remember)and Ouran (The Door the Twins Open was a tearjerker for me, but the manga was definitely sad at moments). But other than that I don't cry during anime so having at least one anime that made me cry is pretty big.

[Yatterman]

Because I found a anime tokyo disneyland commercial made by madhouse for Disney.

[Teddy_Bearxx]

High School of the Dead.
Cause I didn't want my family eaten by zombies ;o;

[4evaRyuk]

I can't forget Higurashi When They Cry, such a terrifiying manga but when Shion killed Satoko I went crying to my mum.

[Yatterman]

anyone ever saw the anime barefoot gen?

[Washougal_Otaku]

^ Not yet, but it looks good.

^^ I loved it. 

[Yatterman]

the bombing scene is not only sad but also disturbing alot.

[EveofAbyss]

Canaan. Watched it today, and boy howdy...when the Hakko/Santana relationship reaches its tragic culmination...

http://us8.memecdn.com/Dont-let-them-see_c_106158.jpg

[Shenkkazoo]

The CP9 and Marineford arks in One Piece always make me cry.
However, Puella Magi Madoka Magica is the saddest anime I've ever watched, and left me sobbing.

[Syaoran_Sakura.Kinomoto]

The ending of Fate/Stay Night still makes me cry. xD
SaberxShirou
QQ

[4evaRyuk]

Grave of the Fireflies

[Kaytwo]

Aria at the end when Akari became a Prima
Aria at the end when Alicia retired
Aria at the end when Akari was alone and ended up daydreaming that Alicia was still there

That's three times at the end of the series! 

Various parts of Clannad and After Story. Mostly After Story.

[CaptnPoptart]

I've only watched small bits of Higurashi, and it was such a tear-jerker when Rika was stabbing herself to death...

FullMetal Alchemist was such a close tear-jerker when I watched some of the anime, but mostly the manga (I prefer the manga over the anime, in my opinion.), especially when Hughes, Tucker, and Nina died (I was sobbing at, like, 4 or 5 in the morning when I was reading my dad's copies of the manga :'C)

Clannad was quite sad as well (and After Story)...I will admit.

I finally finished watching Soul Eater a few days ago, and it's a GREAT, no, INCREDIBLY AMAZING anime, except when Crona was impailed and (almost) died, I was sobbing like a little child, especially when he/she said "I'm happy now, because you were my friend." to Maka. Makes me shed tears every time. TT__TT

[Lin]

DBZ. Never really for Goku, but when Vegeta died.... oh man I just started bawling as a kid. Him and Piccolo. I love me some villians-turned-reluctant good guys!

[Takeshi-San]

Oh man...I'm a massive crybaby when it comes to anime.
To name a few:
Hellsing Ultimate - Pips death.
Elfen Lied - All of the last episode
Fullmetal Alchemist - Maes Hughes death. And I know there's other scenes. Can't think of any.
(Off topic, but as for a video game, Metal Gear Solid 2 made me sob an ocean. You have no idea. )
Trigun almost made me cry.
Does Sonic X count as an anime? Regardless..I..omg...Now THAT is pathetic xD
Neon Genesis Evangelion.
And there's probably more...

[govi]

I've cried at more than a few anime, but the one that I didn't expect to make me sob was, of all things, Pokemon.  I'd never seen any of it until this year, and my roommate decided that this was a travesty.  We began watching the first season, but man, the "Go West, Young Meowth" episode was a massive punch in the feels for me.  I never expected it to make me cry, but it sure as hell did.

[otakunobody]

No.6 made me cry so hard.
;A;
Nezumiiiiiiiiiiiii

I cried with this one too ;A; It was so...urgh!

[Alli-san]

Clannad: After Story totally had me crying like a baby!

[toonafeesh]

There was NANA. I cried at the endings of Shikabane Hime and Elfen Lied. And then of course there was Claymore.......Teresa's death, Undine's death, and Jean's death get me every time!

[@random]

anyone ever saw the anime barefoot gen?

I didn't know there was an anime... I've read the manga, though.

[CyberIncision]

Anohana ;_;

[SebbyxKitties]

Kuroshitsuji made me cry like a baby. -_-

[Washougal_Otaku]

Does Sonic X count as an anime? Regardless..I..omg...Now THAT is pathetic xD

It was made in Japan, so it counts.

[Sailor-Jeimi]

Not even about to search all the pages..But....


KANON!! OMG KANON! KANON! KANON! I balled like a little baby when Makoto died.

[mesaverde]

I've never actually cried in any movie, show, play, book, etc. Tegami Bachi brought me close, although I can't actually remember what part it was. It was also like 1 am though, and I get emotional late at night.

[hawk222]

I know I've mentioned before that I don't really cry (for whatever reason my body has for it), but I always get kinda sad whenever I watch the first part of the second season Sword Art Online opening song. It's just, they were really building their relationship, and now they've been separated like this! It's horrible! TT__TT

[Prince McKupo]

Oh man...I can probably chalk all of this up to me being a total crybaby, but so many tears have been wrenched out of my eyes because of anime and video games:

Spirited Away -- When Chihiro/Sen helped Haku/Kohaku reclaim his identity and the joyful plummet through the sky.
Fuyu no Semi -- Yeah...the whole damn thing...
DBZ -- Vegeta's death at the hands of Frieza.  Finally made me realize that even the toughest guys can cry.
One Piece -- Every time Going Merry spoke in its pained, weary, yet joyfully persevering voice...and of course the viking burial...  T_T


FFX & X-2's endings...especially if Yuna decides not to bring Tidus back.
Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask -- The final outcome of Kafei and Anju's sidequest.
FFIV -- When everyone in your party just kept on freakin' dying left and right!!
FFVI -- Celes' attempted suicide after failing to save the one man she looked up to as a father.
FFVIII -- Seeing Rinoa in space, gasping her last breaths.
Super Mario Galaxy -- Rosalina's story and Mario's Luma's farewell as it joins the other Lumas to stop the black hole.
Legend of Legaia -- After getting little snippets of Noa's parents throughout the whole game, then finally discovering in their irreversible state in Conkram.
Ni no Kuni -- THE FIRST FLIPPIN' 15 MINUTES!!!  Along with Oliver learning the truth of the Great Sage Alicia...
The Walking Dead Game -- The end...that is all.
Secret of Mana -- Being banished from your village and near the end of the game, learning of your mother's fate and existence.
Live a Live -- A really old JP-only SNES game, but I never sympathized with a villain more than I did Odio/Oersted...what a hopeless existence, having everyone who looked up to you as a hero completely abandon you, including your best friend and the woman who you are to marry...


Hoo...I think that's maybe 1/4 of them...  T_T

[EveofAbyss]

Spirited Away -- When Chihiro/Sen helped Haku/Kohaku reclaim his identity and the joyful plummet through the sky.

FFX & X-2's endings...especially if Yuna decides not to bring Tidus back.

I feel you there. I'm right with you.

I'd also add:

Kiki's Delivery Service: The edge-of-your-seat climax where Kiki races through the sky to save Tom, and he's slipping...slipping...slipping...falls....and she saves him at the last second. The way the audio drops out and then explodes in applause and the movie theme...gets me so hard every time.

My Neighbor Totoro: The whole movie chokes me up. There is such a happy sadness to this one. What with the girls' mother being in the hospital, Mei going missing...the movie feels like a cheery veneer over tragedy. Even with the film's happy ending, the atmosphere is definitely closer to 'Grave of the Fireflies' than 'The Cat Returns' or 'Pom Poko'.

Attack on Titan: This is the newest one that has choked me up, and it is primarily due to the incredible voice-acting talent of the Japanese cast. The ending of the first episode slays me. How Eren screams for his mother, and how she cries for him...sooooooo effective.

[iBubbleTeax3]

* Les miserables Shoujo Cosette. This was like a rollercoaster for me between anger and sadness ; n ; . I always cry during the end of the revolt when everyone dies practically as well as the death of Jean Valjean.. Also when, the cop guy (can't remember his name) realizes that people can change and declares this towards the prisoner.

* Devil Survivor 2 the Animation- Omg when Hibiki saved Io and the ending... Yup totally ended up bursting into tears.

* Pokemon the First Movie and Celebi- Going to be honest, I've always cry at the "going to die" scenes.

* Tales of Abyss - Ion's death T n T

[Washougal_Otaku]

^ The Pokemon movie almost made me cry, too, but from how terrible it was. 


But seriously, though, I've been catching up on Requiem from the Darkness, and a couple of those episodes had some sad (and sick) twists to them.

[The_Geek]

On a CLAMP binge.
Just finished X1999.
Ow.
It was bad enough when Seichirou died, because that whole storyline kills me, but Arashi visiting the shrine, Kamui's wish, and the dreamseer finally dying?
Owowowowowowwowowow.

[JaegerDarkness]

WARNING: THIS POST GOES OFF TOPIC

There've several things that made me cry;
1. The death of pets.
2. A video game. (This was just after my first dog [his name was Bear] was put to sleep. In fact, I was SO upset, that I didn't even want that game in the house.)
3. The end of Kumoricon. (This is a yearly occurrence.)
4. The death of Sasori. *rage mode activated* I ******* HATE SAKURA HARUNO!!!!!! SHE IS A ******* USELESS ***** AND I WISH SHE WAS DEAD!!!! *rage mode deactivated*

[Yatterman]

Pokémon Origins: Cubone reuniting with the ghost of his mother Marowak.

[hotdgumi]

For me the last episode of Puella Magi Madoka Magica would have had to be the most emotional thing ive seen in anime. That and the episode (spoiler alert sorry) where Mami dies. I balled my eyes out!

[JaegerDarkness]

1. The death of Petra Ral. (SERIOUSLY, if I hear any Petra jokes, your *** is grass, and I'll let the Yojimbo mow it).
2. The death of Yuuki Konno. (Cancer SUCKS)!!!!

[hawk222]

Pyrrha...

[derek anthony]

I get watery eyed at , final fantasy crisis core ending
the end of code geass where lelouch dies , and listening to some of the soundtrack
the end of nausicaa of the valley of the wind , where nausicaa gets trampled

[zenneth]

"your lie in april"
or shigatsu wa kimi no uso

it's a music piano shoujo drama-comedy anime, with a male main character
this anime has AWESOME awesome animation, switching from funny to intense, and PERFECT, PERFECT portrayal of depression and anxiety and LOVEABLE loveable characters.
i held off pretty well in the last episode with only teary eyes and a couple of sniffles.
then when kousei replies on kaori's love letter in his mind
"will i live in someone's heart?"
"you betcha"
"any chance it's yours?"
"you barged in without asking"
i BAWLED!!!!! sure i have cried on other anime but this anime made me BAWL like a toddler.

this anime now has a place in my heart.

[AnimeEncyclopedia]

i have a feeling the new tales of zestiria anime will make me shed at least a few tears.

[hawk222]

The last part of Brook's backstory in One Piece always makes me shed a tear. It was on just the other day...

[ClancyCarlin]

I don't think I ever cried to any anime, in fact, I've rarely cried watching any movie or TV show of anything.
There were times where I got close to doing so however:
- The first time watching the End of Evangelion's ending: I guess I though that the ending was very bleak and hopeless since the world ended and only Shinji and Asuka were left, I was 15 the first time I saw it and before that, I had never seen anything like EoE in animation before, I thought (Still do) that the movie is very disturbing.
- Wolf's Rain: The overall feeling of bleakness and the various deaths that happened, as well as its ending theme, made me feel quite depressed watching it.
- Cowboy Bebop: The last episode. One part that I really think is sad is the one before the final scene, where Spike eats Jet's special beef with bell peppers despite that he thought that they're horrible, then they both chat a while and have a last laugh together, then Spike leaves, is confronted by Faye and leaves the Bebop to die.

[derek anthony]

there are a couple of scenes that made me cry from noragami aragoto
