Guys am i the only one that didn't cry in Anohana
Dont get me wrong i liked the anime but it kinda had a forced feeling to it.
The characters were kinda meh, and the reasons they had to feel responsible were pretty stupid. Maybe Popo the big guy is the only one that should feel responsible because he watched her die and did nothing.

Since the show was so little i couldn't get attached to the characters to feel really sad.

I still got some feels but i don't understand why people where saying this was one of the sadest animes and that i would feel sad for a week.

Before you call me hearthless i did actually cry alot in Clannad and got sad for about a week, the thing is since it had much more episodes i was able to think of those characters like my friends and actually got really sad, Anohana didn't do that for me. Good anime tho and enjoyable to watch.

Lmao, this is exactly how I felt when I finished Angel Beats. Absolutely average with terrible character development due to the insane number of characters. Shite first 8 episodes, okay remaining.

Same thing happened to me in Angel Beats , they had so many characters and so little time by the end of it i couldn't get attached to none of them.

This is my opinion tho, other people can get more emotional attached to those characters because they can relate to them.
In my case it was Clannad

We didn't cried. Yet, it is a fact, but this doesn't mean that we found the show boring. I actually liked Angel Beats despite the fact that I didn't cried. Overall, it was very good to me. However, Anohana is another case. Not only it wasn't that sad or rather drama forced, there was a very shallow story, not much development and truly a weak philosophy. On the other hand, Clannad had a great deal of drama cleverly paced within an interesting story filled with meaningful morals. Which were missing in Anohana. Nonetheless, I must agree that the script of Anohana was incredible. Unfortunately, the story was dull.

Come on, if the only reason why you do like Anohana was because you did cry, then you failed to consider the potential of the material.

Crying is not why you watch it. But then again, I agree, story wise it's an emotional trainwreck. I couldn't call it a good story.

If I ever want to cry over something, I'd watch Hachi the dog's tale. Graveyard's Fireflies is the only anime tearjerker for me.

If you didn't enjoy a show because you felt it was superficial or try hard in creating drama, and you didn't cry because of it. Does it really matter?
The most important things in life is the people that you care about
