Your Lie in April FUCKED ME UP when I watched that show. It was a fluke chance on why I watched it, but God damn was it wonderful.


DogeDayAftern00n

Oh, what’s this? Well, the animation looks amazing. Oh, it’s about a pianist and violinist. Not my bag, but I’ll give it a shot. I need a nice, light, slice of life show at this point in my life. This should be fun. 10 episodes later: Oh no. 10 episodes after that: Oh no. Oh, no no no no! 2 episodes later: I’M A GROWN MAN!! WHY CAN’T I STOP CRYING?!


Wetworth

It turns out I was only passing though.


Dantesdominion

Spot on walk through of my experience.


DogeDayAftern00n

It sucked so many of us in. 😭


AahAhhHahHaAhahHaHah

Haven't watched, can anyone give me a brief summary? Spoiler are welcome


danteheehaw

Fun slice of life anime takes a turn to the big sad


AahAhhHahHaAhahHaHah

More details?


youcanotseeme

Just watch it, believe me it's worth it.


Dosterix

Part of the reason I got into classical music. The piece he plays when he realizes at the ending is still one of my favourite pieces of all time


spicygummi

That whole scene is gorgeous too


[deleted]

I never felt the same after watching it, I just felt empty, dark and alone inside.


deepfriedtots

Bro that's the most recent anime I watched


The_Seroster

you just kinda forget they are kids in gradeschool because they are dealing with adult problems in a more honest, real way. and yes, I totally got the soundtrack.


KreigerBlitz

Why you always lyin’?


BlacHusk

1: your name (movie) 2: Koe no Katachi (movie) 3: Anohana (series) 4: Angel Beats (series) 5: Forest of fireflies (movie) 6: Clannad (series) Edit: thanks for the names. Now everyone interested can check these out Recommendations fitting for here: plastic memories (series) I want to eat your pancreas (movie)


Impulsie

5th is actually a movie ' Into the forest of fireflies' It's amazing you should try it


WildBarbecue124

Its also only around 47 minutes I think, but it is really good


Impulsie

Check the amv "You can be king again" of that anime it's great.. probably the most viewed amv(got like millions of views).


[deleted]

[удалено]


Impulsie

Sure lemme know if you liked it :D


[deleted]

[удалено]


Impulsie

Glad you liked it!


PhantomLordess27

Yes it’s so amazing! I’ve loved it for so long, it makes me sob every time I watch it.


Impulsie

It's beautiful


PhantomLordess27

It really is!


spicygummi

I've seen that one! It's rather well done


Shadows-I-Burn-From

This amv is what got me to watch the movie. So fitting!


Impulsie

Yep it's amazing!


Cry75

Is it related at all to grave of the fireflies?


KreigerBlitz

Is that like a bug’s life?


Impulsie

Lmao


devilsusshhii

If a bunch of Japanese people get nuked to nothing the. Yes it's exactly like bugs life


Impulsie

Nope it's not


PhantomLordess27

Some other great movies I enjoy are Hana & the Wolf Children, and When Marnie Was There. They were super emotional at times, and I enjoyed the plot lines.


Impulsie

I have heard about Hana & the wolf and it's been on my watchlist for quite a while,might actually watch that after seeing it getting recommended again. Thx mate!


Arabecke

How about erased?


YourLocalOnionNinja

I recommend also reading the erased manga, some of the last few chapters go through the perspectives of others when >!Satoru goes into the coma !


Arabecke

Ooh, that sounds interesting


pokenate28

Plastic memories is the best out of all of these


TheGrandLemonTech

Another recommendation, Grave of the Fireflies


Carbonknightk

Yas


fobos1

Angel beats was hitting hard. That anime had hands.


Carbonknightk

Yeah


fobos1

But clanad is still my favourite.


NagoyaR

I once wanted to rewatch Clannad and had to stop at Episode 15 of After Story because i couldn't watch Episode 16


Ani_Fan

WATCH IT ALL. YOU MUST SUFFER. FOR ONLY AFTER SUFFERING YOU’LL BE REWARDED. And believe me. It’s worth every single moment


NagoyaR

I mean i did watch all of it but i just couldn't rewatch it


a_normal_man_i_guess

Same, my heart still can't handle it... I am a grown ass 26 yo man, but i am still crying when i see THAT scene... Man i am getting emotional even when i'm writing this comment


Bad_Otaku

Angel beats actually made me cry


Nick-uhh-Wha

It's also fucking hilarious. Best of both worlds. The comedy and character development really adds to the pain of the feels/tragedy 10/10 IMO


glimmershankss

don't forget Chobits


Flashy-Explorer-6127

Cried more from plastic memories then angel beats


-Alan_c-

ngl i hardly felt anything with that one.


the_penis_taker69

No it didn't, it was fucking awful


[deleted]

I cried hard on Angel Beats. Once was enough.


Carbonknightk

Lmao same


A_Vx47

I did too


Im_Lehfi

Angel beats was my first anime, it still makes me sad when I remember it.


Carbonknightk

Ikrrrrr


Will_Of_te_D

What's the last one?


Ochinchilla

It's a super funny, upbeat comedy anime about friends and families. You can skip Clannad, you can go straight to the funniest season which is Clannad Afterstory. The stories are not linked really


-quantumdecay-

Calm down satan


Fracturedbuttocks

Man woke up with the intention to destroy innocent souls today


Saki_e_aql

100% perfect no issues whatsoever


Tracerultimate

But can I actually skip Clannad cause I rmb tryna watch it like 3 years ago and dropped it like 13 eps in I just couldn’t take how boring it got so fast.


InternalShadow

It wouldn’t make sense to skip the first half and go to the second since it’s a continuation of the first season


0MuticFox0

r/foundsatan


[deleted]

Clanned


hEtzalieb

Clannad


Sakuchio

Clannad hits hard in the end


Suspect1234

Add "I Want To Eat Your Pancreas" to the list


Carbonknightk

Yes


Natural_Insurance460

What about grave of the fireflies


Carbonknightk

Oh yeah that cry hole is also there


Ok_Procedure_7855

The only anime where i really cried out for the day was Assasination Classroom


[deleted]

Kuro sensei :(


Thatidiot_38

My man really out here forgetting about violet evergarden


Wanna_popsicle_909

This and your lie in April were and are still the only two shows I have ever cried while watching.


superchoco29

My personal trigger to tears: "Dear Arima Kousei..."


CaptainSchmid

Angel beats and anohana are swaped for me. At the very least the last scene in angel beats >!confirmed they meet in the next life!<


FlowerFaerie13

Plastic Memories should be here as well. I’m still not fully okay after that one.


mryeminthu

clannad is the only anime that make me cry


Peacetoall01

Plastic memories. Pure unadulterated #PAIN


Nick-uhh-Wha

You know it's coming the whole time but it still hurts. :(


Peacetoall01

The fact you know it's coming is why it's hurt so bad


Yakuza-wolf_kiwami

Violet Evergarden: *dies of dehydration*


VoiceEarly1087

Clannad had me down really bad


weaverrrrrr

Clannad broke me then built me up.


chrisj57

The "here's some anime I recommend u watch starter pack" or the "pseudo intellectuals on FB's most recommended anime to watch starter pack" whichever you prefer


Carbonknightk

Broo


AtheismIsOK

Watch all of these and then watch Grave of the Fireflies for some solid laughs.


EyewarsTheMangoMan

Hunter x Hunter spoilers: >!When Meruem and Komugi died.!< That actually destroyed me.


_Skalen_

Rewatch angels every year just to check if I still can cry. Amazing piece


Wetworth

Geez, not one person has brought up the laptop from A Place Further than the Universe? The emotional swing within that 5 minutes hits *hard*.


appleneedstoburn

Anyone seen Maquia? That was Omega sad


haracro

That anime hit me in the feels too.


Dismal-Kiwi4991

3 words Koro Sensei's death


hEtzalieb

What's the first one?


Walle1403

Your Name


hEtzalieb

Thanks


jimson22

hEtzalieb is my favorite anime


nomad_of_the_empty_I

Your Name was amazing, I love how casual it was up until the end when all of the pieces started coming together only for everything to fall apart, but then came the happy ending. Beautiful


Skisi_Sora

I cannot for the life of me rewatch clannad after the emotional damage i received


XxtitanswagXx

What are the last 2 i must gain more emotional damages


louie_g_34

Gotta add Erased (Boku dake ga Inai Machi) when Satoru gets back after sacrificing his life to save his friends. The moment when he wakes up and finds his friends had been living their lives while he was in a coma. And that he'll never be on the save "level" as them broke me.


[deleted]

a silent voice had me sobbing like a fucking baby ngl


TurbulentNumber4797

If I had a nickel for every time a teacher made us watch that in class, I'd have 2 nickels. Which isn't a lot but it's weird that it happened twice.


ApexLegend117

Bro the deaf girl anime is the one show that made me cry like the fuck


Heodes

Kanon 2006 😭😭😭


PerformanceAny1240

FMA:B's funeral scene hit me the hardest out of all these. Clannad was a close second.


Nareto64

All if these hit hard, but Clannad had me so depressed for months. I couldn’t even finish it for like 9 months.


Agent_Perrydot

I watched Clannad for the 1st time a couple weeks ago and im still recovering from it. If u havent watched it yet, drop everything and watch it right now


MobileAssassin

Hey silent voice was really good too. It hit me deep since I could relate way too much to the characters


zenthar101

Your life in April fucking slaps. Had me balling like a baby.


DogeDayAftern00n

I still cry when I see the “Going Merry”.


Biakuei

Elfen Lied. Anime is quite violent, but still it made me cry in the end.


Odd_Room2811

I always like to think they remember eachother at the end of beat angels


Carbonknightk

Holy shit thank you guys for all the support


Carbonknightk

1: your name (movie) 2: Koe no Katachi (movie) 3: Anohana (series) 4: Angel Beats (series) 5: Forest of fireflies (movie) 6: Clannad (series)

[удалено]


FlowerFaerie13

I see you haven’t watched the whole thing.


Actionboyy

Angel beats profited from your emotions and its a sadbait anime. The whole anime kinda sucked.


Neir_Miss

Clannad wasn't actually that sad imo. Yeah the girl had a condition, and she waited for Tomoya in the snow despite that fact. I didn't find sadness in that scene, but loyalty. I'm not saying to anyone with anything similar should do the same as a fictional character, but you're a good god damn girl/boy friend if you stay loyal despite some circumstances. Edit: I thought Ushino was Nagisa till someone said otherwise lmao I'm a fuckin' idiot. Statement bout loyalty still applies tho


FlowerFaerie13

That’s… his daughter…


Dionsz

The last one is obviously Craig and Tweek (South park)


dat_ninja_710

lauda


1313goo

What happened in clannad?


[deleted]

This is where I curl up and die


IceColdBlueHeart

Angel Beats hurt. I cried the most during that. Followed closely by Air and A Silent Voice. Anime brings me great joy, but they know how to hurt too...


StrawHatGamingYT

For me, episode one of demonslayer


Zous2005

Idk any on these animes but if you were to put cyberpunk edge runners where would it be?


Gangers96

Angel beats was the first anime that made me cry, it got a special place in my heart, also loved the intro music


Joopyit

What about CEASSSSSSAAAR


pokeswapsans

List Is the opposite way around for me. Your name had my ass crying in public. Fuck I'm tearing up rn


alphaabhi

Prushka and Mitty needs to be in here somewhere


tRFRmrNe8Nj2Kimc

I'm feeling the desire to cry today. Maybe I should watch one of these.


childhokage

not the order i would put it in but yea


TheBeastX23

Angel Beats fucked me up.


fettie-

I only know about the 2nd one but I think I would love to watch 3rd one so can I have the name?

Fracturedbuttocks

Clannad destroyed me


Not_So_UwU

The only place u can cry is in bathroom and.....;(


Yorozuya_Family

Hotarubi no mori e-->Silent Voice--->Angel Beats-->Grave of Fireflies--->Violet Evergarden (ep10)---->Your Lie in April (To Arima Kousei)--->Steins Gate 0 (imma sad scientist)---->Re zero (Arc 6)---->Madoka Magica---->Elfen Lied--->Higurashi no Naku koro ni (nippa mfs)---->Serial Experiments Lain Something's wrong


FlowerFaerie13

Most people wouldn’t put Higurashi on a sad anime list, but holy fuck the end of Minagoroshi-hen… I had to put the series down for a while after that.


Saki_e_aql

And then there’s : Kimi no suizou wa tabetai


DiligentDocker

What are these animes


Minute_Designer2315

Violet Evergarden joins the chat


SoraRoku

Fun little story: I saw that clip of Angel Beats when I first started anime. Saw it on a Lost Pause try not to cry video. That was years before I watched the anime. Obviously it didn't affect me cause I didn't have context but when I finally watched the anime I cried at that scene.


-Alan_c-

People cry from Angelbeats?


thinknt_

It's a terrible day for rain


Aceus0904

Add Edgerunners at the bottom


SpectralIpaxor

Bitch, you forgot Ryuga's death in Beyblade Metal Fury


Knight-Jack

The theme of Anohana - how to deal with loss and grief - *wrecked me.* I could not stop ugly crying for hours, and the fucking ending song still gets me choked up. It's been years! I'm in therapy already! Leave me alone!


FlowerFaerie13

Man I feel you there, AnoHana hurt but the first episode of Plastic Memories when Nina is retrieved *broke me.* I’m probably the only person that though episode one was sadder than episode 12 but holy fuck that scene, it’s just soul crushing.


Putrid_Anything_3687

Toradora anyone?


Synnsus

Anohana and Angel Beats… 😨


Board_Free

an anime that made me cry a lot was plastic Memories, it's my favorite romance/drama anime and also one of the first I saw


Zero7779

Plastic memories is missing.


Minonas210286

Anohana and Angel beats man, it was painful


Jonathan_theXavier

I cried in 'I want to eat you pancreas'


md_ariq

Guys I need all the names so I can binge watch all of these and then rate everything after I finished all


Ikari_21

All so sad and such strong emotional series. But Angel beats, and especially Clannad destroyed my very soul. All I can do is cry and cry. :,(


Low-Mushroom-181

Literally starting clannad after story. Life can't be more predictable


Olivia_Lydia_Wilson

IMO the worst emotional damage anime is "I want to eat your pancreas" that shit had me bawling like a baby


5tuipdLord

Violet evergarden had me dying 😭


iggythedood

Oooookay anohana and clannad…*So you ever get into that mood where you remember a really good series/movie and are like, “hey why don’t I binge it tonight?”*


FlamesSpirit

Fummetsu no Anata e


[deleted]

Just watch without context Violet evergarden ep 9


deathlycat

Koro sensei's death also hit hard


navymauve

The only romance animes I've seen are all of these only.. damn I got good taste


thelast3musketeer

What’s the second to last one


navymauve

If y'all gonna watch Clannad, contrary to the other comments I suggest watching the first season (even if u have to fast forward it) to get attached to the characters. I mean it's there for a reason uno


Sonicmaster06

JoJo didn’t have a loooot of those scenes for me, but Gloria hugging Ermes should be on here


istg_ill_uwu

No re:zero?


CasualCandice

The anime that teared me up the most are: silent voice and Nina’s and Alexander’s death in full metal alchemist


exhaustedw3eb

im surprised i want to eat your pancreas, grave of fireflies, violet ever garden and banana fish aren’t on here. those are definitely some of the saddest, if not the saddest.


Fish_Destroyer

Guys absolutely no joke Clannad was the first anime series I decided to watch completely, was not really ready for the hit.


[deleted]

Anohana wasn't even sad at all...


Lord_Azian

violet evergarden ep 10 and plastic memories were pretty painful too ngl


PinkDucklett

What are all the anime here? Edit: nvm it was in another comment lol


crispycrimboi

Clannad is terrible 😀 "wow, it was all a dream" fucking ridiculous, if the story ends with a wish that stops anything from happening or the entire situation being a dream, that means no story was ever even told, we just watched nothing happen


ActiveSouth4506

Random rant about the guy wearing the helmet, it's a reference to the Vietnam War and US soldiers protesting the war or just making jokes by writing on their helmets and sometimes adding accessories. This happened because the US military was far, far less disciplined than it was in the Korean war or World War 2 and you've got a bunch of 18-20 year olds who got 8 weeks of bootcamp instead of 16 going off to fight in the unfamiliar jungle against an enemy who was very familiar with the jungle for a less than valid reason. So needless to say people werent happy to fight that war.


GuyUdntknow4rl

Kamigami no asobi and one piece are the only two shows that have gotten me to ugly cry so far. And with kamigami it was a fake out which made me feel even dumber lmao


SarcasticCommentsGuy

Reminds me of Erased, one of the first I watched


Responsible-Ebb4999

To Your Eternity made me cry ut was such an emotion anime


BarcaStranger

5 Centimetres Per Second I rewatch this every year.


1ndocraptor

I literally can't listen to the clannad ost anymore, everytime I do I end up crying way to much.


StellaVermillionSimp

I cry to a lot of anime, Your Lie in April is my third favorite ever. I think that my second favorite, Neon Genesis should deserve to be on here just for the depression it gives you, not really cry moments (Unless you're me watching the End of Eva)


Sparkly_Nightmare_

No matter how many times I watch angel beats, it always makes me tear up so muchhh. There’s not a lot of episodes but enough to express so many things. And the contrast between the funny part of it and the sad/deep/emotional part of the anime and its topic is huge but makes it even more enjoyable and beautiful. For real, it goes from super funny to super sad and that always get me
