Re:Zero S2 P2...
I don't think I otherwise shed a tear through the series so far, but...

MHA - In season 4 when Eri smiles because she sees Deku performing, yeah I had tears streaming for that one.

Tamako Market - When the bird leaves without saying goodbye because he’s “not in the habit of making girls cry”. I’ve seen it twice now, got me both times.

Teasing Master Takagi-san - At the very end of season 2 when Takagi and Nishikata finally hold hands... I kind of unexpectedly cried my eyes out. It’s a good thing the credits rolled right after because I would have missed the following minute or so because I couldn’t see through all my tears!

I'm a huge fan of the manga, I've cried to the manga a long time ago, and I wasn't expecting to cry to the anime too, especially
, because I didn't cry to it in the manga, but that made me so emotional with the seiyuus and the ost, even if I still prefer the manga, it was a great experience.

K-On was the biggest surprise ever. The girls slowly realizing that their time together in High School is fast approaching is was initially hit me with that realization, “oh this is gonna make me cry.”

After the original members of Hokago Tea Time sang the song they made for Azusa, I was crying so hard I couldn’t breath out of my nose.

Fate/Zero. Not the ending, I played the VN so I saw that coming. The line where Berserker’s Master talks about playing in the park again like the good old days- having just seen the HF movies that hit like a brick.

I think my favorite part about the amount of times I've cried for One Piece is the fact that its probably made me teared up as many times out of sadness as it has out of happiness.

I feel this, I finished the VN after completing Fate Zero, UBW, HF and those animes itself was great. But the VN takes it to a whole different level. I'm glad to see people play the VN and dive deeper into the series aside from just the animes. It really is a masterpiece of a franchise.

I went into School-Live! completely blind. By episode three the show had already made me cry, and it managed to make me cry two more times after that too

Also A Place Further Than The Universe. Nothing but good vibes for the first 11 and a half episodes and then... single saddest scene in all of anime IMO. I still tear up sometimes when I think back on it or listen to the song that played during that scene

Non Non Biyori - It just made me so nostalgic and emotional as I was aching for a life to be a young kid free of worries again.

Assassination Classroom


A Place Further than the Universe - to be fair, I watched that anime completely blind because it was something I picked up randomly and I wasn't expecting much from it.

(under construction)
(ok, completed)
Edit: I revisited that episode of Violet Evergarden, and actually cried this time, so i move it to the first category :')

---

There's many, actually. It doesn't happen very often, so i highly regard any anime that is capable of making me so.
I'm quite surprised that it is a lot more than i expected/remembered while browsing down my list.

Actually cried:
- Clannad: After Story (of course)

- Granbelm (twice, totally unexpected)

- Made in Abyss (near ending)

- No Game No Life: Zero (twice and unexpected)

- Sayonara no Asa ni Yakusoku no Hana wo Kazarou

- Sora yori mo Tooi Basho (unexpected and hit hardest)

- Violet Evergarden (THAT episode)


Almost:
- Angel Beats! (near ending)

- Code Geass: Hangyaku no Lelouch R2 (ending)

- Darling in the FranXX (backstory/revelation episode, unexpected)

- Kimi no Na wa. (around climax)

- Mahou Shoujo Madoka★Magica (near ending)

- Steins;Gate 0 (THAT scene)


Currently watching, will probably cry:
- Kimi no Suizou wo Tabetai (have seen the live-action drama and read the manga, know what's coming)

- Shuumatsu Nani Shitemasu ka? Isogashii Desu ka? Sukutte Moratte Ii Desu ka? (approaching the ending)

Two shows actually.


1. Dragon Ball Heroes

2. Zero no Tsukaima Season 3 and 4.


I almost started crying like a 8 year old girls while watching them. And no I am not lying. I watched the second one with my Girlffriend and I always had to close my eyes so she cant see any tear coming out.

Both of them were so horrible BAD in any definition of Bad, i wasn't able to stand it. My body, soul and brain got hurt this much. I actually still feel sad and attacked by this.

Somali and The Forest Spirit. When it started it was just a comfy anime with a great family. But damn the last episode hit right in the feels

Kengan Ashura manga somehow is the only manga that has managed to make me cry and I have read Oyasumi Punpun and Berserk. They didn't make me cry but a fucking Martial Arts Manga managed that

Clannad: After Story. At first, it was a just a fun slice of life series. It was wholesome. But then it hit like a truck after cascade of events.

After watching Clannad, I never ever thought that some other anime could make me cry. But Bunny girl senpai both anime and movie hit real hard. Sakuta character is just epic, he deserves more recognition.

What do you think are the most important things in life? Money, dreams, sympathy towards others...

Yes, they're all important things as well... But the most important thing is responsibility for your own actions.
