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

[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

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.

[Kona-chan]

I baaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaawed so much at the part with Sloth and Ed 3:
and both Bleach movies made me cry, Ichigo crying makes me cry toooooo TT.TT'

[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]

[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.

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?
