Sad anime reccommendations?
Hi all,
I was wondering if anyone knows of some heart-wrenching or tear-inducing anime?
Or, if not to such extent, any general anime with sad scenes/themes?
I watched an anime called Clannad, both seasons, it was really emotionally draining, but I enjoyed every moment of it, beginning to end :)
Thank you for helping :))
Re: Sad anime reccommendations?
Air is by the same company as Clannad it's very sad and a great anime. Also Ano Hana.
Re: Sad anime reccommendations?
Angel Beats! is a great anime although its short. Pandora Hearts is also a wonderful choice. For some reason I can't think of anymore off the top of my head... but if I do remember more titles, I'll come back!
Re: Sad anime reccommendations?
I would highly recommend Elfen Lied.
Its a tragedy anime with alot of sad scenes.
Elfen Lied made me cry several times,
so I would recommend this anime if you're looking for sadness and tragedy.

Besides anything by Key (Air, Kanon, Clannad, Angel Beats!), um...
Wolf's Rain was pretty sad. Ano Hana too.
Have you seen Ef - A tale of memories? It's not all that tragic, but if you liked Clannad, I think you might enjoy it.
Re: Sad anime reccommendations?
Kimi ni Todoke made my cry for unknown reasons. Anohana is also very sad...
Re: Sad anime reccommendations?
Grave of the Fireflies. Watch it, and you'll know what I mean.

Fifteen year old Ikeuchi Aya was just a normal girl, soon to be high school student and daughter of a family who works at a shop that makes tofu. As time passed, unusual things started happening to Aya lately. She started falling down often and walking in a strange way. Her mother Shioka, takes Aya to see the doctor, and he informs Shioka that Aya has spinocerebellar degeneration - a terrible disease where the cerebellum of the brain gradually deteriorates to the point where the victim cannot walk, speak, write, or eat. A cruel disease, as it does not affect the mind in the least. How will Aya react when told about her disease? And how will Aya live from now on?
I strongly recommend anyone to watch this. It's a real eye opener to things. The only show besides Clannad that forced me to have a box of tissues with me at all times

Moon phase has it's sad morments. Like when princes Luna put her hand through kohl and made a hole the size of a fist through his lung. Then later hazakeys mom spoke to her in that the bloods pac works both ways so she gave some of her life to save kohi. Diamond day dreams is a sad anime. Diamond daydreams is sad. I loved episodes 3+4. Message from a distant star is a short movie that is extremely sad in my book

I've finished Anohana two days ago and I was crying like a baby. Beautiful but definitely sad story.
Re: Sad anime reccommendations?
Elfen Lied, as many others have said. Wolf's Rain (saddest anime I've seen so far). Clannad is also pretty sad throughout the series.

5 Centimeters Per Second might suit your taste.
Jigoku Shoujo has a lot of sad elements.
K-on! Has a pretty sad ending.
