Anime's don't get much more tragic than this. Great anime...excellent storyline and very moving.


And yes, Toboe IS a boy, LOL!

Definetly a sad anime, how many animes end like that?

reply

Very sad. Totally wasn't expecting it to be sad. Cried my eyes out and i'm a 22yr old guy haha.

reply

I remembered other sad animes like 'Candy Candy', 'Remi', 'Last Unicorn' and even episode 40 of the 'Chronicles of Tsubasa'.
But yes, it's very sad and I cried and cried while watching and even afterward.

saddest is grave of the fireflies hands down.

reply

Pretty sad. But Elfen Leid is the saddest IMO.

reply

Saddest I've ever seen, and the best. Absolutely brilliant anime! Great music too. Toboe is a boy, but in the English dubbed version a woman provides his voice.

Yeah, the final four OVA episodes we're pretty sad, I kinda liked it. Also, Cowboy Bebop still ranks as my top anime, especially for it's ending too, but that's all i'll say. But Grave of the Fireflies still ranks as the saddest, or maybe most depressing anime I've ever seen.

reply

Wolf's Rain was very sad indeed....SPOILERS AHEAD...



I just felt so hopeful that in the end everyone would survive...I guess the pack did in a way because everything recycled and started over but still..very tragic. I loved this show but it was so heart breaking those last few episodes. I probably can't watch it again for a while.

I've heard Saikano is depressing.

To me, Wolf's Rain is sad (probably one of the saddest, if not the saddest I've seen) but in the end it manages to be hopeful -- not like "everyone will get their happy ending" but more like "it'll be alright." Does anyone know what I mean? I don't know how to explain...

I might look like I'm doing nothing,
but on a cellular level I'm really quite busy.

reply

Wolf's Rain is quite sad. Blue's realizations she's a wolf, Toboe, and Kiba leaves "paradise"
Cowboy Bebop actually had me real sad in Hard Luck Woman and Waltz for Venus.
Neon Genesis Evangelion sad? no but it's quite morbid.

Grave of the Fireflies is probably the saddest anime film, it's quite tragic.
Miyazaki films have some moving parts as well.

Elfen Lied is not so much sad as you just overall feel bad for the characters especially Lucy.

reply

I'm guessing you've never watched Grave of Fireflies. Now that is the saddest anime I've ever seen. At least in this one they are resurrected in a way.

reply



I'd say Grave of Fireflies was more depressing. Wolf's rain was more sad (sadder?).

reply

I've just finished watching the series on DVD and have to admit that sometimes I just couldn't face watching the next episode for a couple of days as I just knew what would happen. Tense, gripping, emotionally involving, a true masterpiece.

Something is calling me, I feel the Gravity, of it all. (Wolf's Rain)
