Most of the time I don't really feel too much but if an anime has a plot that resonates with me personally I can blubber like a baby... *See Kanon 2006, EF - A Tale of Melodies, Tokyo Magnitude 8.0 It's all good though, it's not a bad thing if a medium can provoke an emotional response. |

| Once you've seen the same trope/scene used again and again and again over a decade I think you'll stop getting emotional. ...of course some things never change, or instead just spark unintended reactions. |

| It happens more often than I would think it would. I always thought I was a little more hardened than your average person, guess not. |

| I only cry for characters i like. And i sometimes get goosepumps while watching epic things. And when the scene is really well done, i get a heartwarming feeling. I also feels the same way with movies and books. |

| I have to admit I do. Up until recently though, I've only gotten bleary/misty-eyed and heartswells from anime, but Kokoro Connect tripped up my flood gate switch and I outright sobbed a whole three times while watching it. Ever since Kokoro Connect I've only watched silly shows, and had to put Air on hold midway through. |

| I never get emotional from watching anime. No matter how sad it is. |
| Do I get emotional while watching anime, hell yes they do. Sometimes I just really get into a story and really connect with the characters and their sad shit, even some of their happy shit, really gets to me. Never have cried though, felt like I was going to sometimes but never have but neither has any movie or TV show. |
 |
| I be like bawling crazy when random people in naruto war die. curse you hayao miyazaki |
| Sometimes with Dragon ball series |
| Yeah, anime is one of the few media mediums that can bring me to manly tears. It takes a good show to do it though but it happens pretty often. |
 |
| Yeah I'm a crybaby when it comes to emotional fiction with lots of feels. Even music alone can tear me up if it's beautiful enough. |
| Of course I get emotional while watching anime. That's the thing I love most about anime. For some reason, it's the entertainment medium that draws out the most emotion from me. It's very rare for me to see an American film or video game that causes me to tear up. However, anime (well, some anime, not all) can cause me to bawl my eyes out. Clannad: After Story, ef-a tale of melodies, Angel Beats, Ano Hana, and Shinsekai Yori are a few that caused me to cry on more than one occasion. Even if we're talking from a happiness standpoint, something like Usagi Drop or Non Non Biyori come to mind. Lately, I haven't seen a ton of anime that can move me on an emotional level. I think the last anime that made me cry pretty damn hard was Little Busters: Refrain. Other than that? I teared up a bit at Hakkenden: Touhou Hakken Ibun S2 and Kamisama Inai Nichiyoubi. Both of which weren't particularly great, but I'd call them pretty good anime. Hakkenden is a funny anime because it's side stories are better than the main narrative. Anyway, yeah. There's no shame in getting emotional at anime. I don't think the OP's anime listed are particularly emotional (at least to me), but hey, to each their own. |
| I never cry, but some anime do manage to move me with their strong emotional moments. Of course, if they are boring it wouldn't work, like Clannad and Anohana. FMA, One Piece and RuroKen had the best emotions so far. |
| "Let Justice Be Done!" My Theme Fight again, fight again for justice! |
| It depends on whether I like the characters and if I sympathize with them. |
| It's kinda weird on me here, if I see a sad part of an anime or even watch a sad anime, I won't even cry, I never even cried watching Anohana. The only anime that truly got to me was Madoka Magica and The "Hentai" Prince and the Stony Cat |
 |
| It all depends on the anime, I really don't cry much. |
"Lelouch, do you know why snow is white? Snow is white, because it's forgotten what color it's supposed to be."  |
| depends on the anime, sometimes lame attempts at drama end up making me laugh instead of feeling sad |
 |
| Hell yes, there's nothing wrong with getting emotional too. Even in a shounen anime if i find a slightly sad backstory of a character, i cry my eyes out. |
 |
| Yes, if the show succeeds at making me care that much. |

| If a show can't make me feel anything, I'd say its a failure. |

| While the feels are still fresh, I just watched an episode of Natsume Yuujinchou San that nearly moved me to tears. It was simple and beautiful. Part of what makes an anime emotional for me is when I can connect and relate strongly to what's happening or when there's theme, message, or thought that resonates deeply with me. This is what separates anime from most other forms of entertainment for me. |
 |
| Never cried But I definitely get emotional when watching, otherwise I wouldn't be watching anime today. |

| Yes of course, I often randomly shout 'moe moe kyun' at the screen when I get engaged. |
| I probably regret this post by now. |
| I've only done it once...okay maybe a little bit more than that I don't count |
| No more emotional than I get watching anything else; ie it depends on how invested I am in the story. I don't cry though. |
| Anyone who doesn't hate anime hasn't watched enough anime. - Anonymous |
| It happens from time to time, like when little kids loose their parents and they're crying about it, it triggers me to start tearing up. |
 |
| of course, depends on what anime im watching. like cry when its too sad etc. although its about 5-10 percent of anime im watching. so not a lot. |
| Sometimes, Depending on how good the story is. |
 |
| Yeah, a lot recently. A lot of people talk about crying, no, never cried but the question is 'Do you get emotional'. |
| Of course, it's why i watch animes! |
  |
| The bigger the emotion, the bigger the score. My .02. |
| I get emotional occasionally when watching anime, but I suppose it depends on the circumstances of what I'm watching and how stable I am emotionally. When watching Evangelion 2.0 during , I really got immersed in the movie and that part really made me tear up. I feel like the VA for Shinji did a great job. Something less justifiable would be Anohana. . Man. That's the first time media has made my cry officially. It was emotionally straining. |
 |
| Oh the Clannad effect. |
| P DOPE. |
| I'm a fucking robot when I'm watching anime. I show no emotions at all. But if I finish a good anime I just have that "empty" feeling inside and I don't feel like doing anything after that. |
A stupid thread deserves a stupid answer!  |
| Yes, especially Slice of Life animes. |
| I can't enjoy an anime if it doesn't warrant some kind of emotional reaction from me. I'm pretty much a waterfall, though, so it isn't very hard |
