| Last night I told myself I'd just watch half of Tokyo Magnitude 8.0 then finish it later this week. But it sucked me in and I finished it all last night, and the ending left me totally dumbstruck. I've teared up a few times, but that was the first time I actually just cried, very pathetically, for most of an episode. While it wasn't exactly pleasant, I am very glad I got to watch something that hit me so hard. And outside of Air, I haven't ever really gotten that emotionally effected by a cartoon. So, I would like you MALers to do what you do best, and recommend me some more shows that will make me sob and sob like a good majority of lifetime's viewing population. Tl;Dr THE SADDEST SHIT YOU EVA SEEN. especially if it involves siblings. |

| Mononoke. End thread. |
| Grave of the Fireflies is supposed to make people cry though it didn't quite work for me. Then again, i didn't really like the protagonist in this case so it might work out for you since it involves siblings. |
| Seconding Grave of the Fireflies, Natsume Yuujinchou and Terra e... Adding Tokyo Magnitude 8.0. |
  |
| Terra e, Grave of the Fireflies. I kind of cried at the end of Escaflowne, but I'm not sure why. |
 |
| Clannad ~ After Story definately |
 |
| Terra e(extremely sad and nostalgic) and grave of the fireflies(i've only watched live-action version though) and Full moon wo sagashite has its own sentimental moments. |
We are the United. Even in defeat we stand united. |
| I almost forget: Mushish. I haven't watched everything but most of the episode I've seen so far were really tearjerking. |
| Legend of the Galactic Heroes. Episode 26, 98, and especially 82/83 and 110 makes all baaw-drama anime I've seen before seem like pure happiness. |

Spoilers.............................................. I am three episodes from crying then... Thanks Baman. Only show I cried hard during was Clannad ~After Story. I can't really seriously recommend anything else. The bad thing is that you'd have to sit through 40 episodes until it gets good (first season + AS =/). Kanon 2006 made me sad the first time, but it was only sad twice during the first 16 episodes. I was just hoping it would end after the 2nd girl's arc - so boring =/. |
| You've actually seen a lot of the best criers. Seconding ef ~ a tale of memories and Kanon. Also, Chrono Crusade and Full Moon wo Sagashite. |
| My first novel, Kardia has been published! Click here to read! |
| Kanon 2006, from the same creators as Clannad and Air : ) its beautifull and sad too. but not very sad and there is: Saikano wich is FCKING depressing and sad. but the animation is ugly. but its very sad, so if you dont mind the animation and want something sad, id say watch Saikano too : ) [Edit] BY THE WAY! its not an anime but: 1 Litre of Tears is SOOO sad :*( its even sadder then Clannad After Story and Air, but its a japanese drama series. it has 11 episodes during 45 minutes per episode and its so sad. id recommend you to watch it its very good and a great tearjerker. its the only thing that i watched wich was as sad as Clannad After Story and Air |

| Shingetsutan Tsukihime made me cry. but I think I'm just a weirdo. =) |
| Clannad and Clannad: After Story Well clannad isn't really sad but u need to watch it to know whats happening in After Story. |
| It doesn't think, it doesn't feel, it doesn't laugh or cry..... All it does from dusk till dawn is make the soldiers die. |
| oh man.. Try CLANNAD and it's sequel CLANNAD~After Story~ those are the best tear maker |

I would say the episode where Misty leaves them would induce tears, but I was full of RAGE more than sadness. Especially since they got May and her fail bro to substitute. Dojikko and shota do not compensate for a tsundere of Misty's calibre. *tears, but of rage* you guys forgot the episode where he was separated from pikachu : ( |

Suzuka hasn't been mentioned? You may find the main character clingy or annoying but the music makes up for that |
| Millennium Actress made me cry, maybe you'll get a tear of it too. |

Ontario said: Fuck everyone here, watch Koi Kaze. That was going to be one on my list, but then I thought that the OP might not be the wishy-washy type. If he was, I'd probably suggest Romeo x Juliet and Koi Kaze. lol And you know what... screw it! Seconding all Pokemon-related episodes! Let us not forget the glory of one of the anime pantheon's most memorable members! |

Psajdak said: Tvtropes has a word for people like you. Several words actually.Grave of the Fireflies isn't sad at all. On a contrary, it's rather funny and entertaining movie. |
| This is a serious post. You're not allowed to delete it. |
| I agree to all. Anyways, you should really try Bokura ga Ita. It's a sad love story so it really made me cry. :'( hope that helps ? |
  Mai; Inactive. Ta-tah! |
