Whether immediately, or you didn’t notice at first until you went “oh… crap 😭”.

    I cry at the drop of a hat these days.

    First, the ones others have mentioned:

    • Clannad – but only the first season
    • Gurren Lagann – but not the dramatic moment in the first season that’s supposed to have that impact
    • Kiki’s Delivery Service – everyone is so nice (╥﹏╥)
    • Trigun (original) – Hallelujah

    As for my own:

    • Haibane Renmei – everyone is so nice ( ˃̣̣̥⌓˂̣̣̥)
    • WorldEnd (AKA SukaSuka AKA What Are You Doing at the End of the World? Are You Busy? Will You Save Us?) – a tragic romance but it still got to me as it was meant to
    • Cowboy Bebop – the ending of Ed & Faye’s stories always get me bawling
    • Millennium Actress – just destroys me more than any other of Kon’s works
    • The Light of a Firefly Forest

    EDIT: I was trying to ignore movies but how could I forget to mention Koe No Katachi (AKA A Slient Voice)? I watch that one every year or two when I need a good cry to kinda reset.

      Only the first season of Clannad? I know theres some great parts of S1, but

      After Story spoiler

      “Sanae-san said the only places I can cry are in the toilet and in daddy’s arms”

      absolutely destroys me every time - I’m welling up just typing it out lol. There’s plenty of other great scenes in S2 that at least put it on-par with S1 IMO.

        Yeeeaaahh… I thought S2 was trying way too hard to actually get a reaction. Actually I still didn’t care for parts of S1. The arc that still sticks with me is starfish girl, that one made me a gibbering wreck.

        Not that I’m saying any of that soured the experience, but with how obvious it was being, it couldn’t actually move me.
