* Kuroshitsuji. 1st season, the 2nd one was simply weird. Even though there're many humorous moments, there's doom looming over the main character. And I'm pretty sure that the manga, which is ongoing, will end with the death.

* D.Gray-man. The overall atmosphere. And again, I don't think there will be a happy ending (especially for Allen and Kanda).

*Weiss Kreuz. Nothing that is NOT depressing out there.

* Samurai 7. Character deaths.

* Ayashi no Ceres. The reason would be the spoiler for the series :P

* Twelve Kingdoms. Struggle with human intolerance.

* Wolf's Rain. Just like with Weiss - there's nothing positive there. And one pale ray of hope dies out anyway.

* Rurouni Kenshin (Reminiscence and Reflection). It turned me into a sobbing bundle for a while.

* DN Angel. Dark :(

* Fate-stay night. Saber and Archer are the reasons.

There are actually many more but those are the ones that made me most emotional.

Hard to take this thread seriously when you see Naruto as someones pick. Also theres quite a few spoilers in peoples posts, in particular a lot of plot twists that are supposed to make you depressed/sad/angry.

Anyways a few that cross my mind:

5cm per second
Clannad A/S
ef(s)
Kanon
Angel Beats
Anything with a Fate/Stay Night ending is more depressing than anything when you realize what a waste of money it was producing something with an ending like that.
Oh and Katanagatari, if you watched the entire thing you know what I'm talkin about.

Haven't gotta around to watching Air because well, I'm not in the mood at the moment to be sad.

"...our faces marked by toil, by deceptions, by success, by love; our weary eyes looking still, looking always, looking anxiously for something out of life, that while it is expected is already gone – has passed unseen, in a sigh, in a flash – together with the youth, with the strength, with the romance of illusions.” - Joseph Conrad ('Youth')

I don't usually watch sad anime, because I like watching happy ones most of the time. But my saddest anime would have to be Code Geass. :(

Utawarerumono, Code Geass R2 and Chrono Crusade.

The animes themselves weren't totally depressing.. but I'd say the endings kinda were :(

School Days - because of the brutal, wtf, ending which totally came out of nowhere.
Fate/Stay Night - very sad last couple of episodes and ending as well. Even cried on it.
Chaos;Head - almost all of the episodes where depressing and dark, untill the ending.
Angel Beats! - Hard times, and depresion defined it to the very end.

Eureka Seven is really sad too, imho.

Excuse me for being heartless but I was actually happy that they couldn't be together. I was hoping for Yoko x Simon...
Overall I agree with Lagann, actually I remember that I almost (if not) cried when Kamina died T.T

The end of Jin-Roh: The Wolf Brigade, the entirety of Grave of the Fireflies, and majority of Now and Then, Here and There. These are some of the most emotionally draining things I've ever seen, and god bless them for that.
Laugh and the world laughs with you. Weep and you weep alone.
