The most... well, for sheer volume, I have to admit that One Piece, in its hundreds of episodes, has probably produced the most from me. I would never have guessed it when I started, but that series hit a bizarre level emotional intensity for me in the 200s which regularly left me drained. Especially with Usopp, of all people. I cannot reasonably account for this. o_O

For more concentrated quality, though, Air may have potentially been the most effective. NHK ni Youkoso! brought on loads of crying as well, though more in a sharp and subtle sense... there were certain things which struck some incredibly deep and complex emotional chords. Also, the Wolf's Rain OVA (the last four episodes of the series), had I not been in public while watching it, would have definitely been up here too.

Natsume Yuujin Cho

Clannad

FMA Brotherhood

Naruto definitely!!! flippin everytime!!!

first to make me cry would be pokemon when butterfree left and when charmander nearly died oh and the first pokemon movie.

to everyone here congrats on your weightloss so far you guys n gals are smashing it. tell me your secrets.....TELL MELEE!! (I love invader zim )

OH and I have to add Angel beats. I JUST finished it like 5 mins ago and I am crying like a baby :sad: It was SUCH a good anime def a new favorite

Can't believe i forgot that one, I cried a few times watching that anime!

Maybe im an overly sensitive overweight guy haha

Naruto's speeches where he's crying and saying how everything is supposed to be makes me get tears in my eyes, well a little bit.

hahah no that one is a killer xD you'd have to not have a heart to not cry I was like depressed for a few days after I finished it :laugh:

I've seen too many anime series but these are the top for me:
Naruto: When Naruto meets his mom. Flashback of Naruto's parents death and their parting words as Minato completed the seal:brokenheart: Neji's death noooo:frown: , the already planned death of the parents of Ino-Shika-Cho even though they already said their parting words and they were so brave about it. And I know more are still gonna die!
Ayashi no Ceres: Yuhi falling to tears screaming Chidori's name as she dies:sad:
Fushigi Yuugi: Nuriko's death, Hotohori's death, Suboshi and Amiboshi's death, even Nakago's death, everyone else's death... a lot of people die in this anime, it's so tragic. They're really all just victims of circumstance:sad:
Rurouni Kenshin aka Samurai X: Tomoe's death at the hands of Kenshin:brokenheart:
Chrono Crusade: When Rosette tells Chrono she doesn't want to die. Chrono and Rosette's death
And I know FF7 is a game but I still think Aeris and Zack's death were the most heartbreakingly tragic :brokenheart:

I'm sure there are more that I may have not mentioned here
If anyone wants to talk anime let me know, I'm currently watching HoTD, Naruto, Fairytail, etc... :flowerforyou:

Code Geass. EVERY FREAKIN TIME. My brother and I watch that show once a year, and every time we are bawling at the same stupid spots. It's masochistic, really.

Another one that makes me cry every time is Fruits Basket. Ugh, that show. If I need a good cry, I pop in certain episodes of that show, and it does the trick.

Naruto has specific points which do target the emotions greatly, the death of Asuma as well as naruto fighting Sasuke when they were younger near the massive waterfall! Didn't make me cry as such but it hit my emotions hard...
As of now, the anime series of naruto is so normal and to some extent boring as there is just fillers which I hate - I liked chikara though!

Wish the weekly episodes would be longer though :grumble: 20 min don't cut it for a weeks wait!:sad:

Hakuoki was pretty sad but in particular Clannad episodes and the entire 2nd half of fruit basket it would be easier to count the moments I wasnt watching them through a waterfall of my own tears

No contest. Grave of the Fireflies.

Me and my buddy watched it in high school. We were downstairs in his basement when his mom came down to two 300lbs offensive linemen sobbing to a "cartoon." Her eyes kind of bulged in shock and confusion, then she shook her head and went back up stairs. :laugh:

Grave of the fireflies is a masterpiece. Cried on that one too. Great answer.

DBZ will always be my favorite. This is a video i made of my brother headbanging and lip syncing to one of the Japanese theme songs. Goofy guy

After reading this, I went and marathoned CG. The whooooole series was crazy (I feel weird for laughing at Euphemia's... incident), but yeah, the feels.

Mirai Nikki and Elfen Lied hit hardest. However there are many....hard not to with the character development and story depth that seems to be prevalent in much of the anime out there.
