| Getting invested in a story also usually means getting emotional about it in different ways for me. Laugh, cry, get angry with characters (or bad endings), or sometimes sad when an anime ends. |
| I don't usually get emotional with works of fiction (whether anime or otherwise) although Grave of the Fireflies really got me |
 |
| I shed a tear at a certain instance in Code Geass... I don't know how to do the spoiler button thing. |
 |
| after watching clannad, i got desensitized to anything and everything sad unless an animal died |
 |
| Yes and I even started to fanboy out after seeing this https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/sekaiproject/clannad-official-english-release |
| Just because you know how to use a torrent does not give you the god given right to pirate. My actual list: https://kitsu.io/users/mattbenz99/library check out my youtube channel for my review: https://www.youtube.com/user/mattbenz99 |
| If the series is well written and caused me to relate to a characters' feelings than there is a good chance I could react emotionally with tears. This holds true for any medium of entertainment, though films with actors rarely get me to respond emotionally as compared to an artistic expression of feelings and inner-thought. |

MohdJeffreyZin said: I don't know how to explain this but, it's just that I'm an emotional person sometimes. but when it come to anime I got pretty sensitive like Guilty Crown, Valvrave, Attack On titan, Psycho-Pass & Suisei No Gargantia, Sword Art online (I don't care NO matter how good/bad these show was as what people said), It really triggers me an emotional response a lot & 'explodes' in my head/heart because that shit was totally bananas (batshit insane). I cried no, get angry while watching anime... when people died, MC got raped by psychotic villains who mostly jerk & going killing spree where people love to hate till it become a personal matter. Others thought it was a laughing matter & take it as an excuses. How about you guys? It doesn't show much on the outside, but I do get rather emotional and much of what I watch and read affects me on a personal level to some extent; more so, I suspect, than is normal. Witnessing events take place such as the ones you described are pretty "painful" to me; sometimes it makes things difficult to sit through. So I enjoy light-hearted, happy stories the best. I take it as a sign that I am capable of that kind of empathy and I'm rather glad for it. I think you should be too. |
Kurotsu said: I do every now and then. But then... there's Anohana. Lord, I cried like a baby at the end of that. Full on ugly cry. If someone saw me, they would've thought someone just died. Haha. Hearing that, I look forward to watching it even less. (And I've been putting it off for the longest time now) I doubt I'll ever be in the mood for emotional anguish. x) sockerdricka said: Getting invested in a story also usually means getting emotional about it in different ways for me.

| No, I'm an emotionless prick. |
 |
| Sometimes, if it hits me at the right spot. Got emotional (not crying, but just feeling...blue) watching NANA, Madoka, and Perfect Blue. When I was younger I cried while watching the Elfen Lied OVA. |
 |
| Nah. |
| I often get emotional and be like "Heeeeell no!" if something bad happens to one of my favourite characters. I also get in a better mood if I watch something very funny like Fairy Tail or High School DxD :) |
| I don't ever get that emotional, well. A piece of me died when Haha jk. I was only bummed for a little bit. Not like really emotional. |
| I often weep about cheap stuff i don't even like. It sometimes sucks being an emotional being. |
| No. Big boys don't cry. |
| Emotional, yes. But not to the point of crying. Well, there are times when I watch bad anime I was so angrily emotional I can kill an ant, but I think that's a different story. |
HOW TO SAVE ANIME IN THREE SIMPLE STEPS
Should even one of the above conditions cannot be done, anime is still at risk. |
Superpieguy said: Jackrabb1t said: Sometimes, if an anime really resonates with me. I never cry of course, but I get a little bleary eyed sometimes. My eyes water a little bit. Sometimes I'll stain my cheek with a few stray tears. |
| I wish I could get emotional, but it happens rarely nowadays to me. |
 |
| If it does have emotional moments, complete with a sad bgm and all, then yea. |
 |
| Sometimes, It depends on the anime whether it is kind of emotional |
| I get emotional when watching anime, never cried but have gotten teary eyed on some occasions hehe. i can tell i will be going on a feel trip with shigatsu wa kimi no uso ;_; |
| If I can relate, I get very emotional. |
 |
| If it's sad for example then of course I do. So many different series have hit me in the feels. Angel Beats and HxH really hit me hard. |
 |
| I cry easily. Little bitter-sweet moments make my shed tears. Drama could get tears flowing. I also tend to get angry at characters who make stupid decisions. The odd emotion I have is that I always laugh at horror and gore... there's something wrong with my emotional response to gore. |
| I'm not a lolicon, you're just projecting your tendency to lewd 2D characters. If your favourite character is Tsutsukakushi Tsukiko, you are my soul mate. Been a long time since I've been here, I'll continue expressing myself freely and believe everyone should too. My MAL Interview |
| Sometimes, but I don't cry over anime, yet I feel the sadness, somehow. Like in that episode of .hack//Sign, when some grunty had some very bad luck. |
| No because I'm not a fgt or a lil' grl emotionally neutral, but certain shows have come close and others have made me sad or depressed. |
 |
Shrabster said: No because I'm not a fgt or a lil' grl emotionally neutral This made my day. But really, depends what anime you're watching. I never cry, but I have only ever got bleary-eyed once, in Clannad: After Story, when |
| Insert Signature Here. |
| I cried when watching Madoka's ending... That's the first time I cried when watching an anime. Mirai Nikki's ending and Mawaru Penguindrum also made me feel sad, but i don't cried (except during Penguindrum episode 12) |
 |
| Sometimes, but never get to actully cry over anime. |
 |
| I regularly have to cry or at least shed a tear or two. But not without any standards whatsoever, if something is written badly, stupidly, ridiculously, hilariously, terribly etc... I can't get any emotional attachment. Or when a show kills everyone before we can get attached to them and then lazily tries to flesh them out in their dying moments with flashbacks or something. Agk and Terraformars come to mind. Zero emotions for both. But for shows with Bokurano or Tokyo Magnitude 8.0 I even have to cry when I only watch the recap years after I finished the series. |
| I probably regret this post by now. |
| I get emotional sometimes, depends on what you are watching. I mean I am a guy & I still get those manly tears every sad bit. -_- |
| I don't really cry as in bawling my eyes out, but I have caught several times when a show, or even a particular scene in a show managed to make my eyes water at the very least. |
| Signature removed. Please follow the signature rules, as defined in the Site & Forum Guidelines. |
| Yes, a lot of the time I do. It does depend on the show for me though. Many times I find myself watching a show that should be emotionally, but I feel nothing about it. Other times the show should not be emotional, but for some reason I make it emotional. It's confusing. |
| It happens, yes. |
| Yea |
| -☾✩ |
| Rarely. |
|
| Of course I'm imersing myself into the anime and can feel the emotions but I've never cried. |
