| While most people are focusing on the "sad"... Angry: Wake Up, Girls! episode 2... made me rage like none other. A 5/5 episode for that... don't want to spoil it. Happy: Basically all of AKB0048, but especially the suspense around the elections in season 2. I know how it goes, but it still gets me every time. It's the only anime to ever give me tears of joy. |

| My 10s, 9s, and most of my 8s, but that's 800 things I'm not bothering to list, because it'll take forever. |
| "Laws exist only for those who cannot live without clinging onto them." -Souske Aizen "Bleach"  |
| K-ON gave me all sorts of emotions and while it was quite bittersweet at times it never once became outright depressing. I've re-watched episode 20 and 24 of season 2 more times than I can count but they still get me every time. No melodrama, no emotional manipulation, no pessimism, no death and suffering, just a group of highschool girls in a situation basically anyone can relate to going through all the emotions that people in their situation would typically feel. The pacing and drama fell a little flat at times in season 1, but season 2 of Love Live was just fantastic. I can't recall a single show I watched as it aired that I eagerly awaited the next episode with as much anticipation as I did with Love Live S2. Grave of the Fireflies on the other hand was deeply, deeply depressing like nothing else I've ever seen especially because the story itself is semi autobiographical. It's not a situation that's manufactured by a team of writers with the sole intention of being a tearjerker. It's a large scale tragedy that actually happened in real life which makes its overall message about the horrors of war all the more poignant. And of course if we're talking about the shows that conjure up a whole variety of emotions you can't forget Cowboy Bebop. One moment I'm full of excitement watching an amazing action sequence, the next I'm getting really emotionally invested learning about the Bebop crew's pasts, the next I'll be laughing my ass off watching Spike trip on mushrooms, it's just so amazing. |

| One Piece :'o Bokura ga Ita :'[ Chihayafuru Naruto |
 |
| Ikkitousen was the most emotional experience one could ever imagine. |
| Right now it would be Shigatsu Wa Kimi No Uso. It's hitting all the marks, both the happy and the sad. |
| aoi bungaku. definitely. also gin no saji. i didnt think gin no saji would reach my feelings as much as it did but it made me think a lot and made me happy and sad and i really love that show. |
 |
| Muhammad Avdol shows everyone how to be a real man. |
Mr. Wonsworth, you may NOT eat my scones! |
| Kokoro Connect's exploration of friendship under duress was powerful to me. That is probably the biggest one, though lots of anime have to varying degrees fiddled with my chords. |
 |
| Toradora. |
 |
| One Piece, Chrno Crusade, Cowboy Bebop (ending), Black Lagoon (Japan/Hensel&Gretel arc), Grave of the Fireflies, Gantz (FUCK THE PROTAGONIST), Kekkaishi (you know the part if you have seen it), Fullmetal Alchemist, and Berserk are some that I can think off right now. |
 |
| Strangely, Kimi to Boku, Hanasaku Iroha and especially Honey and Clover seems to have impacted me more, though I can honestly say the only anime I've cried watching (a bit. Was more of a tear) was Tokyo Magnitude 8.0 |
| Nagi no Asukara episode 25. Shingeki no Kyojin episode 1. |
 |
| Shinji almost made me scream with him, so yeah Neon Genesis Evangelion makes my list. And not to mention 5 Centimeters per Second |
| Gutalala ~~ sudalala "It would be great to live as a human" -Meruem, King of the Ants |
| 5cm per second, anohana, angel beats and clannad series. clannad as rekt me so hard. |
 |
| Hmm.. can I think about it? |
| I am a straight woman and I like boobs. -Said no feminist ever |
LiamApollo said: We've all watched that one anime that has struck an emotional chord with us. What I mean by that is; making us electively laugh, cry, get angry, worried etc; towards the characters within the anime. Which anime was that for you, and why? for me, it was Clanand. It still is to this day! Clannad was the first anime I ever watched, and I'm really thankful towards my boyfriend who had shown it to me when we first met (we watched it together). Towards the end of Clannad (without giving any spoilers) I felt really emotional (and if you've seen Clannad, you'll know why) So, what about you? Most of my favorites. :} |
| I'd have to say Clannad/After Story and Air (I love Key. Sue me.). Those are at least the ones where I got the most emotionally involved. And also Eureka Seven. It didn't exactly make me cry, but there were definitely some feels felt. |
| Tasogare Otome X Amnesia Steins;gate and Sket Dance ;_______; |
When life hands you a muffin, pay the world a smile. |
| tbh, recently , HxH episode 131 ..... that certain scene WAS SO WELL DON!!! also CG s2 it just killed me man!!! :( |
 |
| Way too many to name, but the lead up to the "Morning Glory" episode of E7, culminating in that one, certainly comes to mind. As does Ikari's realization in the finale to Paranoia Agent. |
| Kara no kyoukai during the ending songs. |
 Anime is good, fucking deal with it. |
| A few stick out, but this one does more often than others: Aria the Origination: |
 |
| Also: Byousoku 5 Centimeter for the heartbreak sadness and realism Clannad: After Story for the (damn good) melodrama Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood (cried when when I was 12) Code geass in general Higurashi made me really sad a some point during the 2nd season Mushishi really calmed me down after a stressful day (a bit of a chore to marathon and I which I had watched them sparely now as I really liked watching it weekly) Steins;Gate was simply awesome and good emotional dilemmas Suzumiya Haruhi no Yuuutsu, bits about haruhi's past really struck and emotional chord with me at a young and impressionable age Zankyou no Terror made me tear up when I saw |
Anime is good, fucking deal with it. |

| Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann man. |
| Naruto - this anime makes me laugh, sad and upset at the same time. and many more anime~ |
 |
| Honey and Clover. I was a university student just like the main characters, so I felt identified with some of the topics and feelings shown. Characters were very relatable and the plot was really realistic. That was the anime that made me start watching anime again, after a long hault. |
| One Piece, Steins;Gate, Code Geass, Hunter x Hunter. Planning to watch Mushishi for it. |
This applies to a couple of my higher rated shows, but in particular, I'm unable to watch Aria, Haibane Renmei, the first episode of Hanasaku Iroha, or the last six episodes of The iDOLM@STER for this reason.  |

| only yesterday has struck a deep impact on me it made me realize taht i am not alone |
| Twitter and it's consequences had been a disaster for the human race |
| There are probably more, but these are the first that came to my mind: - Shigatsu Wa Kimi no Uso - Steins;Gate - Angel Beats |

| Bartender - It has people my age reflecting over their lives. |
| Clannad AS (obviously) Grave of the Fireflies Gurren Lagann Legend of the Galactic Heroes Mobile Suit Gundam 0080: War in the Pocket |
Take care of yourself |
| Clannad: After Story - I rewatched this three times and still cried each time. The intro music also gave me the goosebumps... o.o Angel Beats! - Yui-nyan~ Sakurasou no Pet na Kanojo - Made me think a little about my future goals.. Naruto - The flashbacks onionized me... T^T |

| Cowboy Bebop when Spike died is the most prevalent example. The epitome of episodism at its painful best. But I've had similar emotional experiences with Mirai Nikki and Fairy Tail. |
tayorous said: I havent watched any that have had that effect on me That's sad. |
 |
| lol, I'm going to be the only one that says SAO. It made me cry on episode 3. |
