Sad: Cowboy Bebop, I love that series.

Depressing:
5cms per second. I hate time, I hate living in the past, etc. This movie just reminded me that I live too much in the past.

Welcome to the NHK: Made me realize how much of a loser I am :P

Steins Gate: Some of the small things depressed me. Mainly being forgotten.

Watched Elfen Lied this past weekend. Trumped my original reply by a long shot. The music box song is probably the biggest give away of anything ever. Every time you hear it, you pretty much know some of the saddest shit you've ever seen is about to go down.

Even though Natsuyuki Rendezvous turned into shit in the second half of the show, it was still one of the most emotional ones I've seen. I cried a couple of times to it.

Clannad itself made my tears come out. Haven't worked my way through AS yet but I will in the future.

Ano Hana was sad. Didn't cry though.

Obviously, Clannad especially After Story and Angel Beats. Kanon(2006) almost got me only in Makoto's arc.


So, related to Key but I don't know about Air since I haven't finished yet.

Air → Everything was just based off of sadness.
Elfen Lied → That one was just depressing left and right.
Grave of the Fireflies → There wasn't even anything to this. It was just depressing for the sake of being depressing.

Makoto's arc almost got me too. The rest of the arcs weren't nearly as sad for me. Key really knows how to toy with your emotions :'(

chrono crusade, made me a lot sadder than I expected. It's weird, I went into shows like clannad knowing they'd be sad and they didn't seem as sad as I thought. The whole element of surprise really makes a difference in the anime's impact.

I don't understand why people say clannad is depressing, sure it gets sad but it has a happy ending... shouldn't depressing mean that it's sad and has a sad ending?

Haven't seen many sad anime, but the most depressing ones I have seen are Angel Beats, Code Geass, and Welcome to the NHK!. Also, when I was a kid, Digimon Tamers was pretty heavy.

Ef-A Tale of Melodies

SPOILER ALERT

Just wow...Himura (one of the main characters) has had a tragic life, and in the final episode he is able to let go of the past, gets to meet Yuuko again on the rooftop. Himura was struggling not to blink as he told Yuuko that he would be fine; linking it back their youth where Yuuko said one was lying when they blinked. She put him through a lot throughout the series (she had a messed up life herself) but they really did love eachother in the end, it's a shame, but that's how it goes sadly.

This anime was freaking beautiful; I was considering watching it again, but don't really feel like being depressed/crying at the moment lol

I consider Clannad After Story to be a better anime, but Ef-A tale of melodies is definitley more sad/depressing.
