| Big Order! Mmmm that delicious wincest ending made me realize nothing could match it /s |
 'On-Hold' is another way for a completionist to say 'Dropped' |
| There's several anime that have that effect. It's intentional. Your Lie In April is the perfect example. |
| A Silent Voice, Madoka Magica, and um Death Note I guess to a lesser degree. And also Hunter x Hunter 2011. |
"In the End, Only Kindness Matters" -Jewel |
| Grave of the Fireflies. Nothing I've ever watched anime wise has made me feel sad and empty like this one has. |
| After Story, certain deaths in Geass R2 and Fullmetal Alchemist messed me up for days. |
What a beautiful Duwang |
| Evangelion, Cowboy Bebop, Katanagatari, Higurashi no naku koro ni. |
| Death Note Evangelion Soon Shingeki no kyojin A Silent Voice Madoka Magica |
 |
| Death Note for sure. Nothing else tops that depressing feeling I get when Light dies on those stairs. I've watched it 3 times and each time I get to the last episode, I feel upset for days. More recently though, I was watching Madoka Magica and Made In Abyss alongside each other and after finishing them I felt pretty upset because that had kind of been my late night thing for a week and a half.  |
| For me, it has to be WorldEnd and White Album 2, those endings... |
 |
| Texhnolyze. It's actually one of my favorite anime of all time, but I rarely re-watch it because it has such a nihilistic view of the world. Every episode, especially near the end, is incredibly dark and depressing. |
 |
| Some shows have done this for me but they all pale in comparison to the first time I finished Cowboy Bebop. The show itself was such a unique and entertaining experience that I stretched it out over a couple weeks and when it did end with such finality it felt like I'd lost something special knowing I'd never be able to experience the series for the first time ever again. |
| What about Clannad: After story? That was sad and empty for me. And I agree on Your Lie in April too. |

| Hmm, probably Devilman: Crybaby. There were a few scenes that left me feeling empty. Gonna leave this here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xs-PzathtLA (Beautiful song from the anime) |
| Now and then, here and there. And bokurano. Both are kinda similar stories with similar issues... huge ISSUES. They are just tragic stories with a very slim light that it makes you wonder if it was enough for it. Those shows really are fucked up... On a side note, why the fuck can anybody be sad with Clannad AF? It is a happy ending. ImWaltz said: I agree on this! Devilman actually made me sad too...Hmm, probably Devilman: Crybaby.

inflowing said: Grave of the Fireflies. Nothing I've ever watched anime wise has made me feel sad and empty like this one has. Yup, the only true answer. No other show has left me in such despair and self hatred as the Grave of Fireflies. I still refuse to rewatch it because I know I will not be able to function for the next few days. When my friends suggested we should watch it for a good cry, they just don’t understand the gravity. |
Can I touch you? Please I love you. Let me touch you, I love you! Friend: How's school? Me: School gave me debt and my plant mold.  |

When my friends suggested we should watch it for a good cry, they just don’t understand the gravity. It's a bit weird. I didn't actually cry while I was watching the movie, the tears only started falling after it was over. Adding to that list I would also say shinsekai yori. You almost grow up with the characters, and to hear the second movement of new world symphony... it just kills me. |

It's a bit weird. I didn't actually cry while I was watching the movie, the tears only started falling after it was over. Yes, exactly my point. You sort of don't watch the movie for a cry; that's not what the show wants from its audience (in my opinion). The Grave of Fireflies almost consumes the viewer in complete guilt I'm not even sure I shed a tear; was too empty for any emotion of sadness. |

| Your Lie in April. Still feel sad about the ending. |
| Naruto. I spent all that time watching Naruto from the beginning all the way to the end of Shippuuden, including the filler. When I finished I didn't know what to do anymore. |
| Feeling empty not necessarily means bad or sad for me. It's more like a feeling that I'm going to miss the characters, the story, the anime in general. It could also happen when there's a sad, depressing ending or maybe a cliff-hanger, or it ends too soon and just wish to watch more of it. In other words, "post-anime depression" or the void you feel when you're done with an anime. This has happened with plenty of anime over the 5 years I've been watching anime, starting with my first anime: Death Note.

| Just like someone else above "Feeling empty not necessarily means bad or sad for me." For me, it's just a feeling of 'wanting more'; doesn't want it to conclude and end. To fill the void, i usually end up reading a lot of the series's lore, spending my time hoping i get the unreachable satisfaction that i want. Nevertheless, there is a lot. Im just gonna mentions that i remember. Shoujo Shuumatsu Ryokou, Mahou Shoujo Madoka, Shinsekai Yori, ReLIFE, Steins;Gate, Hyouka, Fate/Stay Night UBW & Fate/Zero |
| NHK ni Youkoso, Legend of Galactic Heroes |
| White Album 2, both the anime and the VN. Usually I don't feel bad and sad afterwards, most of the time I feel a lot of things (if what I'm consuming is good) but just as I watch, play or read something, it's something simultaneous. I mean, I recognize it as some sort of entertainment, so anime never really makes me feel something that can be extended; beyond it. White Album 2 is the only exception, it makes me really sad, I cry, it makes me feel despair and loneliness, it's at the same time beautiful and sorrowful. This is a love story that both fills me and makes me completely empty. It touches me deeply and hurts me, even after playing the whole VN and all the routes within. Probably the best explanation for what I feel with White Album 2 is that I experienced something very similar in my life, which made me a skeptical and cynical person. So, to watch this in fiction is something that makes me feel a lot of things, one of them is emptiness. |

  Grant me one hour on love's most sacred shores To clasp the bosom that my soul adores, Lie heart to heart and merge my soul with yours |
| Your Lie In April. Dealing with loss, TWICE, was bad enough for the main character, but then the letter at the end just stabs you when you're down. I love that series, but it took me like a full day to feel normal again. |
  |
| I guess zankyou no terror and Silent voice. |
| Madoka Magica, especially with its third movie Rebellion. No matter how many times I re-watch it or re-read the manga versions of both, I always end up feeling a little sad/empty for a while. Doesn't mean that I don't enjoy the series though. |
 |
| Clannad After Story, Ange Beats, and Plastic Memories all ripped a hole through my heart |
| YLIA everyone says this but it has been in the number 1 spot since I've seen watched it dubbed when it released i wonder how much ill enjoy it subbed might need to change my rating system now that i've seen this thread YLIA might be the only true 10 for me i have like 100 10s lol |

| Koe no Katachi, Kimi no Na wa, Made in Abyss, Clannad After Story (this one was by far the "worst"), well almost any anime in my "favorites" |
| Signature removed. Please have a positive iq. |
| Most recent would have to be Senko-San https://myanimelist.net/anime/38759/Sewayaki_Kitsune_no_Senko-san I put off watching the last episode till just now because I knew it was going to make me feel this way..... knowing that no matter how many hours I work (50-60hrs a week) or how lonely I might feel that a cute fox god will never come to pamper me.... feelsbadman  |
| Most anime in my fav list but the most were Sakurasou no Pet na Kanojo and K-ON!! The graduating thing always getting my emotions.The latest was Saekano Season 2 it actually had happy last episode but i dont know i felt emptiness after watching it i even got sick from it xD maybe im thinking too much about Katou |

| There are a lot like deathnote. Little buster:refrain is definitely one of them but inuyashiki gave me most emptiest feeling. |
❝Kabo-chan is ran by the MAL staff team and does not respond to individual comments made on her profile.❞ I was immensely devastated. |
edelgord said: Wow so deep. Be careful you might cut yourself on that edge.Aku no Hana made me feel like a fucking shit |
| - Kimi no Suizou wo Tabetai - Especially near the end when shiga asks Sakura's mom . That scene destoyed me, and made me the whole anime so much more impactful for me. I never expected that movie to end the way it did. - Shigatsu wa Kimi no Uso - Same kind of emptiness i felt as with Kimi no Suizou wo Tabetai, the only difference being that - Grave of the fireflies - No explanation needed, probably the only anime i dont wanna see a 2nd time of everything i scored 8+/10 |
 |
| A lof of anime have left me empty. I use to get that kinda feeling when I finish games but it also happens with anime ocsasionally. I finished LOGH yesterday and don't know what I'm supposed to feel at the moment. |
