I went into full-blown Heroic BSOD mode while watching Clannad.
I have to stop watching after
and cried for a whole hour and a half before i could contain myself and continue watching and crying.
I think I spent the whole last half of the second season sobbing.
And yet it's one of the best anime ever, but you have to be a serious masochist to keep watching.
EVERY SINGLE TIME
I would pause, wail, and then keep going.
Clannad After Story. Clannad After Story. Clannad After Story. Clannad After Story. Clannad After Story.
Oh my god, I cannot say it enough. That anime was by far, one of the saddest and most emotion-wrenching anime I've ever watched.
The ending of K-ON was also pretty sad, but the extra episodes that followed the finale eased the sadness. There was also Ginban Kaleidoscope. I felt pretty sad after that ending...
But yeah:

The end of Angel Beats! made me cry and Bokurano.
Clannad made me cry tears of happiness :3 But also there were very sad parts that got me too!
Michiko to Hatchin made me cry quite a bit during some of the episodes, and that happened a few times while I watched Kuchu Buranko. So I say those anime until I watch a few more different series.
Yeah, I came here expecting to see a lot of Grave of the Fireflies mentions as well. Definitely the saddest one that I've seen.Quote:

Not really "sad," per se, but the ending of Death Note reminded me of a Shakespearean tragedy. No one really got a happy ending.
End of K-on!! gave me a few tears cause of Azu-nyan...
I think every episode of Madoka after episode 3 found a way for me to want to bawl my eyes out.
THANK YOU! Honestly, I find Clannad just a little over-rated. Also, it's ending was trash...Quote:

Elfen Lied.
It was such a short anime I couldnt explain anything without giving the entire story away.
It just bursts me into tears everytime I re-watch it.
Bokurano is the only anime I've dropped for being too sad. And, well, "pilot a mech and die from lack of energy, if you don't the world is destroyed" is pretty bleak. I could take that, but when I found out what happens when they *win* I just stopped.
Samurai 7 is one of the saddest Animes I've ever seen,
Bokurano and AnoHana. Yerp.
Also, Tiger & Bunny is sad in a really awkward sense. At first, I was like, "Oh superheroes. Nostalgia, yay. <3" But that anime, especially in recent episodes, has reduced me to tears.
