Clannad After Story, episode 16 onwards. Yes, I cried for every episode starting episode 16. To this date, this is the only anime that made me cry wildly.
End of episode 1 of Plastic Memories. Grandma scene hit me right in the feels.
The end of the MinaKushi mini-arc in Naruto Shippuuden.
I vaguely remember crying to the ending of Romeo x Juliet back when I was a kid.
Pretty much it and I've watched a lot of feelsy shows. A lot got me teary-eyed but not enough to make me cry.
LOL these questions always make me laugh. Well, I cry at anything I find really good. If it's a good story, there's a good chance an emotional moment will get me to cry.
That being said, here are anime that have give me tears like no other, and even affected my emotional well-being for a time: Attack on Titan (ep 23 bro), Ano Hana, and Chrno Crusade are good examples.
I don't know if shed a tear count as crying, but if it's, yeah couple of times, mostly that something I can relate to myself. Like Tokyo Magnitude 8.0 and Grave of Fireflies, because I've a little brother that have same age as the kids on that anime (I watched those anime at the same year if I remembered it correctly). Oh but my first tear for anime is when I was a kid watching Pokemon episode "Bye Bye Butterfree", lol...
Don't like it? Just stop watching/reading it. Why become a masochist that keep going through something you don't like and bitching in the end of it?
Ansatsu Kyoushitsu 2nd season's ending was really sad, but the one that made me cry the most was Clannad After Story. Shigatsu Wa Kimi no Uso, Angel beats and Plastic Memories also made me cry, but still, I think that Clannad AS is the saddest anime for me.
I've been on the verge of tears a lot but the only anime to ever succeed was Your Lie in April
"And then I told a lie. Just one." 😭😭😭
Major spoiler ahead If you didn't cry during this, I'm 98% sure you're hearts made of stone XD
Dear Arima Kousei,
It feels weird writing a letter to someone you were just with…
You’re the worst.
Indecisive. Gullible. Twit.
The first time I ever saw you perform, I was 5 years old. It was at a recital for the piano school I was going to. This awkward, clumsy kid came onto the stage and accidentally hit the piano stool with his butt. It was too funny. He turned to the piano that was way too big for him and the moment he played that first note, I was drawn in.
The sound was beautiful, like a 24-colour palette. The melodies danced.
The girl next to me started crying. I wasn’t expecting that at all.
And even so, you gave up the piano. Even though it totally changed other people’s lives. You’re the worst. Indecisive. Gullible. Twit.
(Cut to Kaori as a kid, telling her parents she’s giving up piano for violin because she wants Kousei to play again.)
When I found out we were in the same middle school, I was ecstatic. But how would I ever come to talk to you? Maybe I’d hang out at the lunch concession. Instead, I just watched you from afar.
I mean. After all. You all seemed to get along so well. There wasn’t really any space in there for someone like me.
When I was a kid, I had to have an operation and I started having to be at the hospital for regular check-ups. In the first year of middle school, I collapsed and I was admitted over and over. With every visit, I was there for longer and longer. Really, I didn’t get to class much in middle school, I spent more time at the hospital. And I knew something was wrong with my body.
One night, I saw my parents crying in the waiting room and I knew that my time was running out.
That’s when I ran away.
I didn’t want to bring my regrets with me to heaven, so I stopped holding back from what the things I always wanted to do.
I wasn’t scared anymore to get contact lenses.
I ate what I wanted instead of always worrying about my weight.
And I took the music with all its high and mighty directives and played it the way I wanted.
And then I told a lie. Just one.
I lied and said that I, Miyazono Kaori, liked Watari Ryouta.
And that lie brought you to me.
Please apologize to Watari for me… though I’m sure he’s forgotten me by now
I think I need someone more wholehearted and earnest than him.
I think we’d be fine as friends though.
And please apologize to Tsubaki for me too.
I want for there to be no hard feelings. And there was one thing I could never ask of her, to ask her directly to introduce the two of us.
I don’t think she would’ve had an answer for me.
After all, she was in love with you.
We all knew that.
I think the only people who didn’t know were you and her.
That underhanded lie brought me to you didn’t work out the way I had imagined.
It was darker.
And meaner.
And denser.
And more stubborn.
And more perverted.
And softer.
And more masculine.
And sweet.
Remember that bridge we jumped off? The water was so cool and refreshing.
Racing each other alongside the train. I really thought I could win.
The moon was saw from the music room that night, like a delicious-looking bun.
Singing Twinkle Twinkle Little Star with you as we rode on that bike together. Then falling out time. We’re awful singers.
At the school at night. I’m still sure there was something there.
The falling snow, just like cherry blossoms.
It’s strange to be a musician, but then to have your heart so filled by something that comes from off-stage
They’re unforgettable scenes to me. But they’re such little things. It’s weird, isn’t it?
What do you think?
Do you think I made it into anyone’s heart like that?
I wonder if I made it into yours.
I wonder if you’ll still remember me.
If you forget me, I’ll just come back and..
No, I don’t want to start over.
Please don’t forget me.
Promise me you won’t forget me.
I’m glad it was you.
I hope this reaches you, Arima Kousei.
I love you.
I love you.
I love you.
I’m sorry we couldn’t eat all those canelés.
I’m sorry I hit you so much.
I’m sorry I was so selfish.
No one likes to admit it, but yes I have cried and so have many others who don't admit it. There are many good shows which have made me cry Clannad S2, Angel Beats, Assassination Classroom S2, Anohana, Grave of the Fireflies and many more!!
P.S. There is nothing wrong in crying, it doesn't make one less manly!!
Never cried really but have been left sad for weeks and sometimes even months. I remeber that I went quiet after watching a certain episode in angel beats.

Funny, I finished Angel Beats yesterday. I cried a few times with it, obviously it is designed to do so, but I didn't like very much how they wraped things up. I think every character should have had his or her episode, like the pink haired girl, had they done so I would have probably cried every episode.
And even if disliked it, the breakfast scene of Erased got me crying a lot.
Another one is the end of FMAB, which I'm not a fan of either, but the ''next time I'll make you cry of happiness'' really got to me in the end.
I can't think of another one right now, but I cried a bit with Elfen Lied too, and I'm trying to remember if I did so with Noragami, but I don't think so.

Some shows came close such as Angel Beats, Clannad After Story, A Silent Voice. If these didn't beat my self control I guess there's not else much left.
Some, though I don't recall all, or exactly how teared up I was, but:
Code Geass - end of season 2
Assassination Classroom - end of season 2
Legend of Galactic Heroes - several occasions
Twice, for Your Lie in April and Kokoro Connect. Kokoro Connect isn't even a sad anime and what happened in YLIA was predicted half a dozen episodes ahead of time. Since they both happened at around 3 AM I'll blame sleep deprivation for messing with my mentalilty.
Edit: can't forget AnoHana, that one was legitimate.
Clannad after story and Your lie in april are the only one that really made me crying.
I dont really easily get crying over anime. But these two animes made me crying.
Jojo deaths, Naruto deaths, Shigatsu wa Kimi no Uso, Garden of Words, Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann (KAMINA AAAAA), Senketsu's death in Kill la Kill (fuck me up so bad), Panty & Stocking (Stocking and the ugly ghost dude's love story like fuck dude), Kimi to Boku (all that unrequited love shit hurts), and who knows how many more
Off the top of my head.

Amine are just GREAT and I'm sure I will cry on contless anime that I'll be watching in the future xD
Sunday without God
Reason: this rare ge of a show, this greatness will (most likely) be never continued, due to cancerous mentality of shingekni no kyoujin hypefest.
it aired alongside with snk's first season, and got lterally no attention. Yes it was a light novel adaptation, but it's source was:
finished
only twice as long as the part the whichewas already adopted meaning only one more 12 ep season was needed to finis the story
no legal source translations were pubished
no funtranslations were made either
so basically one potentionally great anime / franchise was just brutally eaten up buy a titan :( // tho' Kakumeiki Valvrave suffered from a simmilar issue of being overshadowed by snk, but it was at least a complete 2x12 ep anime in the end
