There's a reason Clannad rated so high you know. people like anime that affects them emotionally. Whether it makes them happy or sad, even both. If an anime makes me cry(highly unlikely) then it's doing something right.

Anime that would make me cry deserves a 10 because I am a person that doesn't cry easily

It depends, triggering my emotions is a rather difficult task, so if it makes me cry hard, then there's a fair chance the score will be high, there are other factors included of course.

No.

Samurai 7 and Gekkan Shojo Nozaki Kun made me cry because they were so horrible. They got a 6 and a 7.

I was going to say no, but then I remembered the only 3 anime I did rate a 10 so far are the only ones that made me cry, so I guess maybe.

AnoHana got a slight squeeze though, so depends what you call 'crying'.

And I attribute my tears from Air to the visual novel and not the anime.

I don't think that just because it made you cry it deserves a 10. It has to have more than just the ''sadness'' factor in it. Unless you were expecting the anime to be that way and that the story was really good and all.

I'd say no, since I very rarely give 10s, however it usually can't go below an 8 in that case.

It's very probable, well, at least something like 8-9. 10 has to make me feel more than saddness (unless it's reeeeeally strong).

No. Being good at pulling my emotional strings doesn't necessarily outweigh it's other problems, which may be numerous.

Well, no, but it's definitely something I'll reward. Otherwise Clannad AS wouldn't have gotten a 7.
I probably regret this post by now.

No, then that means I would rate Gintama a 10 since it made me cry from how corny it is.

Only One thing in TV has ever made me cry and that was when I saw a sad dog commercial as a kid. If an anime ever dimade me feel that way then I would rate it highly.

Yeah that what caused me to give Space Battleship Yamato 2199 a 10 instead of a 9. The last episode really hit me in the feels. That wouldn't be the case for any anime that would make me cry though.

A lot of anime I have seen that I've given a 10 have made me cry...but I'd still say no. Most of those anime that I did give a 10 (if not all of them) had something more to them. Interesting characters, a compelling story, gorgeous visuals, magnificent music...if not all of these things).

I probably would. Only masterpiece-tier anime are typically capable of invoking such strong emotions in the viewer(s).

However, a few anime that brought me close had too much drama ruining the overall story, so they only got 8's and 9's

For me, crying because of a series doesn't automatically make it a 10 haha. BUT, I will say that the few 10's I've seen have made me cry. I bawled with Toradora and Code Geass. Okay, not really bawled but there was some significant moistness.

Byousoku 5 cm and Mushishi almost made me drop a tear or two, but they didn't get a 10 (8 and 9, respectively)
HOW TO SAVE ANIME IN THREE SIMPLE STEPS

  1. To have Mars of Destruction, Skelter Heaven, and Pupa properly adapted in TV series form by Madhouse
  2. To have Inferno Cop properly adapted in TV series form by Bones, director: Urobuchi Gen
  3. An anime crossover of Mushishi x ARIA x Haibane Renmei.


Should even one of the above conditions cannot be done, anime is still at risk.

Why exactly should one give an anime perfect ratings merely because it had that person in tears? "Perfection" is more than just tears, because that is rather easy to achieve (as said by early posters).

No, 1 episode cannot make up if the other half is terrible or very boring.

Giving an anime a 10 because it made you cry is stupid.

By the same logic:
Drama- Made you cry -> 10
Ecchi- gave you a boner ->10
Comedy- made you laugh ->10

Yes. Only because it is nearly impossible to make me cry for any sort of entertainment. It would have to move Heaven and Hell to do it, and that would be worthy of the 10.

the final scene of Air is probably the most tragic thing I've ever seen, but that doesn't change the fact that it was still a really average adaptation

Mirai Nikki and Spice and Wolf both made me cry and I rated both as 10/10 so, to answer your question, yes.
