| I've been trying to find anime that are actually emotionally involving. Where you actually care about the characters and what happens to them. Usually anime with deaths are pretty good, where the characters aren't immortal bulletproof gods thats can't ever die. Anime is getting kinda boring. I'm looking for a something amazing. Examples: -Attack on titan -claymore -death note -mirai nikki -Zankyou no terror -guilty crown: this was good up to a point, then went downhill -akame ga kill: lol, got repetitive with the deaths though. |

| Why are we still here? Just to suffer? Every night, I can feel my leg... and my arm... even my fingers. The body I've lost... the comrades I've lost... won't stop hurting... It's like they're all still there. You feel it, too, don't you? I'm gonna make them give back our past." |
Sacredhearts said: Monster Wolf's Rain Higashi no Eden NHK ni Youkoso! Zetsuen no Tempest Shinsekai yori I've seen zetsuen no tempest and put shinsekai yori on hold. I've heard of all the others and am going to watch them soon. The only one I'm unsure about is monster. I've heard its amazing but the animation is pretty old and the story is so slow to develop.

I watched the first episode of dangan ronpa before but it didn't look that great.

| -Grave of The Fireflies emotionally intense I'd say. -Wolf Childre/Ookami Kodomo no Ame to Yuki beautiful art and scenery. Both movies, soz if you're looking for series. |

I already know about wolf children, gonna watch it soon. I don't really know about grave of the fireflies, the animation is kinda old and throws off the whole feel for me. Catastor said: Gurren lagann Angel beats Sao Already watched angel beats and sao. I don't think I'll get too invested into gurren lagann, it has a lot of comedy and that kinda takes away a lot of attachemnt for me. An anime can have a couple spots for comedy here and there,but when the whole anime is based on comedy, over the top action, and goofy and over-animated character it feels less mature and appealing to me.

| Another vote for NHK ni Youkoso! It seems like a otaku comedy at first, but then it goes in some remarkable directions starting around the "offline meeting" arc. Personally I was probably most emotionally invested in Kashima's story, but I found myself caring about many of the characters in this show. Two other good options I don't see on your lists are Chihayafuru and Cross Game. |

| Mahou Shoujo Madoka★Magica, surely... (the first 2 episodes are not the anime). I am going to watch Sakurasou no pet na Kanojo too, but I don't know if it is this good. |
| Bump Guys i really need something emotionally involving |
| Grave of the Fireflies is absolutely worth watching. The art is not that dated, it's quite like Miyazaki's films actually. I know you mentioned you're not really into sports anime, but I would recommend Ping Pong. It's very different from your average sports anime and the level of character development and exploration is intense, you really get pulled into the character's lives. Also NGE. Just because. |

Please learn about cel animation and its technical process. Learn how special effects and backlighting were done without computers. |
| Rurouni Kenshin and i think that you really should try Monster ;) |

Alpha101 said: Bump Guys i really need something emotionally involving FINISH GURREN LAGANN!!! if you havn't, theres parts where it hits hard, and it comes out of no where because it is comedy so it makes it hit harder. Tokyo ghoul |
| Agree |
| Kimi Ga Nozomu Ein - heavy drama, romance, emotion. Gundam SEED - space adventure, action, romance, drama. Shiki (review) - supernatural survival horror. |

I_Am_Drunk said: Hits me hard? has to be Disappearance of Suzumiya Haruhi ( need to watch the tv series first) Gosick Puella Magi Madoka Magica Higarashi (assuming you could handle the gore) I tired the anime suzumiya haruhi but shes really annoying and I don't know if I can handle that. I know the movie is really good though.probably gonna watch puella some time soon. I tied higurashi and really tied to like it but, i just got confused why they keep showing the same thing over and over again. Its kinda ll over the place, i guess the gore and stuff eas exciting though. Lucek said: Rurouni Kenshin and i think that you really should try Monster ;) The animation for rurouni puts me off. And again about monster, its has a pretty old feel to it and it really alow to develop. If it was more like death note then maybe, but I don't think I want to wait that long. baxter123 said: Rainbow Deadman Wonderland (Get ready to be hit with a tonne of gore and blood if that's the impact your going for) BTOOOM! Anohana Already watched anohana and broom. Seen some of deadman but i wasn't really feeling it and dropped it. I put rainbow on hold for later. nucblus said: Anime that hits hard, you say? Hajime no Ippo. Haha I see what you did there. But still I don't like sports anime. |
| i was very disappointed by zankyou no terror but it was a good anime i am just meh |
