Toki wo Kakeru Shoujo~

There's lots of funny moments, as well as touching (sad) ones.

Honey and Clover. It's a great show that deals with college students going through life experiences such as love problems, being unsure of the future, friendship, etc. It has many, many touching moments with comedy thrown here and there that really makes you laugh.

FLCL - sounds like it. Not sure if you'd like the craziness and over-the-top atmosphere though.
And Kare Kano seems the obvious one. Rather eccentric, it's really one of the best RomCom I've seen and the characters' background are quite tragic.

Thanks for the recs so far, i'll check them all out =)

Btw,
Kare Kano - did you read it or watch it? it looks interesting but the reviews said the manga is better than the anime..

Elfen Lied, maybe? It's sad, funny and horrific/gory/whatever.
Fruits Basket - so many funny elements, but especially the ending gets very emotional.
Toradora as well.
Air - I CRIED in the last few episodes... Although I did also laugh once in a while; or at least smile ^^

Love Hina is pretty funny, and there's lots of touching too. ;)

Tokyo Godfathers
Millennium Actress - these are Satoshi Kon's non-disturbing movies. I think out of the two, Tokyo Godfathers fits your description better, but Millennium Actress certainly works.

Ichigo Mashimaro actually has one or two rather dramatic moments even though it masquerades as a pure comedy

Seconding FLCL

I would say One Piece, but I don't know if you like this kind of genre..but extremely touching.. anyway:
- Special A (Which I see that you are currently watching.)
- Hanbun no Tsuki ga Noboru Sora(again..sort of touching, but you do get the sad happy feeling)
- Clannad (As said before by many, in my opinion the first season is not as emotional as the After Story)
- Toki wo Kakeru Shoujo (in a way..I didn't find it to be extremely touching )

Maybe even Shugo Chara..and Black Cat.

You need to watch Clannad, or you may watch GTO if you want funny thing that teaches you something.

Seconding Tokyo Godfathers

surprised no ones said Abenobashi Mahou Shoutengai

it's more on the funny side, but slips in some emotion near the end.

Recommend me something. ;]

Clannad.

This is coming from a guy who SWORE he'd never watch it. "It's probably just another some cheesy eroge crap." Ran out of anime to watch, saw first ep... BAM! 2 days later, I've finished after story.

*sigh* Where did my principles go? XD
