What was the saddest anime scene you have ever seen that made you cry or felt sad after or during the scene? Mine would be episode 24 of Chrno Crusade, where Rossete and Chrno were on the bench as they wait for death to take them. Must have been the saddest scene I have ever seen. If you want to see the scene here.

for a guy... if u wanna make them teary eyed... u gotta really hit the pains and emotions... something like in saving private ryan or in black hawk down...

but for an anime to hit those emotions... ive only seen one really good one..

NEON GENESIS EVANGELION!

the part im talking about is the last movie...

when asuka is fighting the mass evas and she finally understands the at field and starts kicking ass...

but then the spear of longinus stabs the eva in the eye and she runs out of power and shuts down...

Then...

swoop comes the mass evas and tears apart the eva... leaving it in pieces...

as she screams and cries in pain... trying every last energy to not lose hope...asuka raises her hand..and the evas hand starts moving and reaching into the air.. even without power....

as the hand slowly rises....the feeling of hope returns again...

but...

the mass evas fire their spear things splits her hand in half..and finishes her off

whew... what an emotional ride...

this is the best video i can find of it..

now.. it has a lot of spoilers.. but.. ^_^ who hasnt seen evangelion?!

for those who havent seen it.. u must watch it!

Ooo btw the video is very graphic.. so if ur weak in the stomach... i wouldnt suggest watching it...

hmm... i'd like to mention tsubasa chronicles... especially ep 20... the scene where sakura sings about her memories... not exactly really sad unless you knew the entire story... but it's really touching... and it's a beautiful song too....

well, it's kinda rare that a character would break into a song halfway through the anime... kinda like a play or musical... so thats what makes it even better....

here...scene where she sings....

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yJD1l8wEkZQ

if anything else... just give it a watch for the song... you won't regret it....

oh yes, that was a scene I'll never forget. Almost seem like I wanted to shout out to the mass evas to stop what they were doing.

hmm saddest anime scene?
To me, I think it's gotta be the REFLECTION OVA of Rurouni Kenshin (my fav anime of all time).

*SPOILERS AHEAD*
At the last part, Kenshin finally returns home to Kaoru and dies peacefully in her arms. The cross-scar, a symbol of his haunting memories that plagued his whole life, disappeared forever. Though it was a touching scene, but it was a sad one for me also.

Some scenes from FMA really hit my emotion..One of the most remarkable ones is at the episode about chimera...(I dun really wanna give spoilers, so I just suggest you guys to watch it)

That's true, that scene really hit me hard. I couldn't say a word, I was so in shock.

The saddest anime is "Grave of the fireflies" imo. It's a pretty old anime about two siblings who get separated from their mom in Japan during WWII. The boy is about 16 and his younger sister is about 7 or 8. At first, he hides the fact, that their mom's long dead, from her, because he just doesn't know how to tell her. The saddest scene was, when she tells him, that she already knows about that. I was so about to cry, but in the end I didn't.

Thats was the 1st Eva scene i saw.
Which make me wan to watch the whole anime to find out wherethe Asuka survive after the attack.
The bird-like evas was really disgusting.
Was really impress by Asuka on how she beat the other evas before they tear her apart.

I think the scene on FMA abt the chimera is also very sad.

I do feel alot on the ep where the bros return back to their village to repair the automail.
Where they show that they burnt down their house b4 they set off an d that Winey shine the lamp to signal the bros to come home,like how their mum always did.Telling to bros that they have a home to return to. :huhuhu

Yeah I saw that movie, and I thought it was really sad how things went for the worst. It was a really sad movie, though it's old it does bring history back to life in a sense of animation form.

I also watched the whole FMA series, and that chimera part was sad, but I thought the saddest part was hughes scene, where he was killed, because the homonculus transform to take the form of his wife.

Whoa, yeah. He was like the coolest minor character in FMA and he died, because he's just a bit more intelligent than others, who had no clue of what was going on.


"Elfen Lied" was pretty sad, too. I can't name a specific scene, but the whole anime has this depressing theme of hopelessness. The same goes for "Gunslinger Girls".

i thought the nana movie was sad ;_; when they were playing endless story!

the last episode of Chobits is soooo sad... it actually made me cry... the feelings of losing someone u love so much... and Hideki didnt realize he loved Chii until then T____T so touching

Hmm...Im not sure if Taiki is reffering to the same anime, but it was called Joy Geen Ying For Chung in Cantonese which means Goodbye to the fireflies. Im guessing that its the same one. I watched it years ago, I was about 5 or 6 at the time. Didn't understand it at the time but now that I think back on it, I think I can remember what happened....sad movie.....=(
Actually, when you think about it, theres a lot of sad animes out there, Gundam Seed Destiny was pretty depressing to watch if you saw more than 6 episodes a day....a main character would die every other episode or so....FMA was also pretty sad...what happened to Nina and her dog....well, I wont say anything else just incase I spoil it for others.

Yep, that's the same one, only different titles. ^^

Wow you guys covered some anime/s(whichever one u prefer) that I also think is sad... ummm there was one anime it's quite old "Kimi Ga Nozomu Eien" it's very sad, the anime is about a guy who likes a girl, but the girl's friend likes the guy (sorry with the guys and girls here I can't remember the name so well go with guy=a girl=b girl's friend=c) a likes b, b has a friend c who likes a, of course a doesn't want to love c since he love b, but a decides to start to like c who ends up in an accident that puts her into a coma for 3-4yrs. It's really hard to explain the sadness part cause if you watch it yourself, you have feelings for the character and that everything becomes sad....

Does any of you read manga? If you do you should try and read Ichigo100%, I'm really attracted to the whole shounen type, esp. the harem types :P but getting near the middle and end of the book it becomes really sad with the rejections. For me the ending tore my feelings... I was quite sad for days, but that's not the case for some people....

Another manga is called Ai Ren it's really sad, as the main character is already dying in such a young age.... for manga lovers they should read this esp. those who likes sad stories....

ummm i think I'm supposed to be talking about anime, but instead it seems i'm talking to much on manga.... If it's not ok to you guys I'll start a thread on it, anyway Kimi Ga Nozomu Eien is sad, for those who likes sad stories of love then this is a must see :huhuhu

Wah, I think it's Spolier, so beware!




I really cried in One Piece, Ruffy vs. Ussopp~ so sad ><''
kanashii tatakai nee! T_____T

And everytime I see the 6th Opening, BRAND NEW WORLD, some warm sadness embraces me, it's so.. kanashiiku

I would say it's elfren lied .... just like wat Taiki said...
After watching tat anime,I became really quiet and kept thinking bout those sad scene....

don't know if any of you guys have watched it but Hajime no Ippo had a few sad scenes its an anime about boxing mixed with alot of comedy and some sad scenes

yeah you right tiagOw :biggrin

Luffy and Usopp fight can make me cry too... :huhuhu

and the anime called "AIR" also made me cry....
the story is simple but trust me... you wil cry :biggrin

try saishou heiki kanojo then

its sad from the moment it starts. the story spirals downhill with no hope no matter how much you wish it gets better.

damm good storyline too.

theres lot of sad anime scene that i cried but for now one of the sadest part ive scene recently is saikano for got the episode and Kanon 2006 ep.10 (but u need to watch ep.6-10 in order to under stand the mutual relationship.

no matter how many times i watch i'll still cry :huhuhu

the last ep of chrno crusade, really made me cried,
some scene from FMA,
cant really remember if there's any others.....
but the scene in prince of tennis where ryoma was crying and thanking all his "SENPAIs" really made me wanna cry....
(yeah, i know,, that's not considered a sad scene)
;)

Rurouni Kenshin ova ending
Basilisk ending
Graves of the fireflies (entire movie was sad :blink: )

Rurouni Kenshin Reflections

Kaoru always waiting for kenshin to come home!!

Noway, the scene where Kenshin accidentally cuts Tomoe was much more sad.
