| When I was a child, probably shiki and another. Also I was very religious so the anime Beelzebub was a no go for me. I actually still haven't picked t up to this day. I should some time. I mean I'm fine with demons now- rather I love them. I love shows with demon lord protagonists like The Devil is a part timer, or yuushibu... although Maou-sama retry I did drop. I was so hyped for it, but it ended up of poor quality. As a child so many things made me uncomfortable. Like horror, and demonic stuff in general. Now I can take pretty much anything Well... unless scat counts. |
| It's not levels of darkness which might make me uncomfortable, it's gratuity. Most typically in Madoka knock-offs. (Most definitely not in Madoka itself.) Note that justification can be aesthetic. Vampire Princess Miyu TV is incredibly dark and not actually terribly meaningful either, but it doesn't feel gratuitous, somehow, because of how its aesthetics work. Now and Then, Here and There is something you appreciate, rather than enjoy as such, but still, 'uncomfortable' would not be a suitable word. It's reflecting real-world problems which don't have nearly enough visibility. |
| I don't think I've ever seen one so dark it was hard to watch. I normally like darker anime and manga. I find darker story lines more interesting. Although, not an anime, Metamorphosis was very unexpectedly dark so that took me a bit by surprise. |
| The last episode of Blood-C with the killer bunnies. |
 |
| I put my vote in for: - From the New World - Now and Then, Here and There These titles succeeded in bringing about lots of discomfort when I watched them. Very bleak storylines and color schemes to go with them. personal note: virtually every other title i see on this list was cringe dark, it was more of a slugfest of violence, or an undercut adaption so the impact wasnt as great. or i just havent seen the specific title :/ |
 Sometimes you just gotta realize that you can't watch every anime you want to. The struggle is far too real for that. |
| Some scenes in higurashi no naku koro ni. It just got so disturbing. |

| probably flowers of evil... everything made me uncomfortable, from the artstyle to the story and characters. I also feel like by it having a more realistic artstyle it felt more real which put me more on edge and made me more uncomfy. it was so hard for me to watch... I dropped it. its a good anime, dont get me wrong, but it felt like bugs were crawling under my skin while I was watching it. just the situations the characters were in.... eughuuuhhhhhhh I watched it until the main character was forced to go on a date with his crush, wearing her p.e uniform underneath his normal clothes in secret. When I think her name was Sawa(?) poured water over him, meaning that his crush would see him wearing her p.e kit underneath his normal clothes. When it happened I screamed and slammed my laptop shut, I felt so full of dread for what would happen, I didn't want to know, I still dont, because Ive never watched any more. I still dont even know her reaction of anything. |
| Texhnolyze. That show was just pure depression. |
| End of Eva? Though the uncomfortableness is really the point for that show. |

MaskOfIce said: As for the examples that made me uncomfortable, the fastest answer I can provide is Made in Abyss with that infamous 10th episode. I still remember where I was when I watched it and the fact that I watched it just before meeting up with friends for dinner. I was a bit off that night. I had to take a break from the anime for a couple days after watching that episode for the first time. Can hardly wait for the pain and discomfort the next movie will have to offer. |

| The final arc of Grisaia s1 was pretty brutal and gross. It is about several students and a teacher wrecking a bus and trying to survive. It does not end well. |

chillyvanilla said: elfen lied was definitely it. i couldn’t make it past the 3rd episode yes i'm glad someone said it. i was the same way, i just felt sick |
| Higurashi wins the Prize for 'Scariest Anime Ever Made"...for me. And I watched Hellsing....so let's just think about that for a bit.... Made in Abyss actually did make me nauseous at one point. Still finished it though and it's still one of my favorites. xD |

Clain said: Chiibi said: Oh my LORD. XD You must have been a tough kid; Disney movies were still scaring me at that age. LOL Oh yes, some of the earlier Disney cartoons were quite dark. Especially The Land Before Time. Though I'm not sure if it was made by Disney or not. That was by Don Bluth who LOVES being dark...and I love him for it. He used to work for Disney but left during the 80s to make The Secret of NIMH, An American Tail, and my favorite, All Dogs Go To Heaven that actually had the balls to I would work for this man if I could. There is no American animator who has more of my respect. He is the reason I love animation. |

| That one scene from Inuyashiki where the villian just murders an entire family for no particular reason. It wasn't the whole anime but that one scene made me pretty uncomfortable. As for an entire anime? Elfen Lied and Grave of the Fireflies, simply because I knew the endind to that movie. |

| I’m not very easily phased but Kara no Kyoukai 3 made me a bit uncomfortable. |
Maneki-Mew said: Ergo Proxy, I mean literally. Seriously, that: Tekakurika said: Gyo was non-hentai stuff that disturbed and disgusted me. And that is rare nowadays Hey, why no one mentions Utsu Musume Sayuri? That was the movie that made me question my whole existence and why I'm watching it in that moment instead of doing something else. That thing was full of shit. Also this Shoujo Tsubaki movie and no one comes at me and tells me "butbut a deep meaning!" please. No, just no. Take that away from me. Am I enough of a masochist to look for Utsu Musume Sayuri? You can just to know what is being uncomfortable on another leve is. Stuff is like 3 minutes long and you can find it on youtube in like 2 sec |
| Akame ga Kill ... That Universe is very fucked up, and I had Beoing's in my stomach each time I turned the page... Yeah, I am talking about the manga, because I read it first. |
 |
| Nightshift Nurses. Absolutely fucking disgusting. |
 |
| Anime? Not really Manga? Yes definitely Even without sound, just manga pictures like from Junji Ito's manga or anything eroguro make me pretty uncomfortable. Though Junji Ito's works are all gems imho. |
| I'm fairly desynthesized when it comes to this stuff, so I do not remember anything that caused me to feel uncomfortable. |

| Violence Jack: Evil Town. It's absolutely terrible in terms of its overall quality (mediocre animation, an abysmally one-note cast of characters, an unengaging narrative etc) though its subject matter was more than enough to freak me out. They went absolutely overkill with the all the rape and even added an absolutely unnecessary scene where a group of kids are hacked to bits. I'm no prude when it comes to transgressive and violent content, but Evil Town overdid it to the point where it just became mind-numbing and unpleasant. Oh, and episode 9 of Devilman Crybaby was profoundly disturbing to me, and I mean that in the best way possible. |
Take care of yourself |
7kaneki7 said: I don't know if Hentai counts, but Euphoria is the one for me. Especially in episode 2 when it seems like the girl is just getting tortured. She did not seem happy at all and I really hated that. I don't like to drop series, so someday I'll bring myself to finish that episode ;-; didnt he literally shit in her mouth |
| Monster, I know it's a masterpiece, but the fact that it's so heavy, made me stopped after every episode, I watched 1 episode, stopped, pondering, not in the mood to continue, repeat, truly dark and good at the same time. |
 ...whether it's now or ten years from now, if you are going to evolve as a person, generally you need to be broken down first. -Ayanokōji Kiyotaka- |
| Now and Then, Here and There got pretty disturbing at times. I guess Bokurano too, some of the main characters' stories were pretty brutal. |
| Who are you and why do you show your hostility towards a complete stranger whom you've not once spoken with before. Are you seriously asking to get blocked? Well, if that's what your intent is; to tempt me into throwing hands with someone as lowly and insignificant as you, then i may grant your wish provided you articulate yourself a bit better when trying to spite a person of my wavelength. |
| I wanted to make a joke about bad lighting since I first saw this thread but I can't think of any show that it was so bad I couldn't see. |

AquaMailman said: Watamote made me uncomfortable, though I still enjoyed it. Seeing Tomoko suffer that self-inflicted loneliness and not even comprehend her situation was depressing. I also watched Welcome to the NHK right after Watamote, so the sad vibes lingered and hit even harder. I had no positive energy for about two days after I finished binging these shows. same here, i don't have any problem with gore or violent shows so i thought i would never feel uncomfortable watching anime, but watamote proved me wrong. i didn't relate to the mc, since i don't have social anxiety, but for some reason seeing her acting that way made me feel bad |
| I usually don't really get uncomfortable but there are two animes so far that did a great job. Goblin Slayer by far is the most uncomfortable one with the rape scenes and how the goblins treated girls. And some scenes in AoT where people got eaten. |
| Hmm probably Texhnolyze, the entire setting was uncomfortable. There's a few other anime but I can't quite remember at the time. |
 |
| I enjoy Dark anime in general a lot,they give me a disturbing vibe (does that make sense) Happy Sugar life was really something else,it started off innocent but as you watch the episodes the music,the characters get more and more twisted. |
