I cried in 5 out of 6 episodes of Takopi’s Original Sin. The me of 2020 wouldn’t believe it.
First time it happened was on completing Violet Evergarden the Movie on late 2021. Haven’t cried for more than 10 years prior to that, and it was the first I did so because I’m very happy for Violet.
What’s yours?
Pokemon: The First Movie back in 1998.
Your Name. Yes, I’m basic.
It’s okay, I did too.
Basic can also mean approachable. My partner doesn’t usually like anime and she enjoyed that one a lot.
(Most recently) First episode of Frieren. I have regrets about how little I’ve connected with the people around me and it just hit hard.
Edit: ohhh, FIRST time? Fullmetal alchemist maybe, or Elfen Lied (little teenage me went in because boobs and got a lot more than i bargained for; i don’t even remember it beyond it being sad)?
meta spoiler; anime title
elaboration
I managed to survive the sequence where My Most Precious Treasure played, but the last episode got me good.
Thankfully, the ending appears hopeful / happy.
The Pokemon movie when Ash turns to stone.
Cowboy BeBop or FMA before Brotherhood came out. There’s a few emotional moments in both that’d probably still get me.
It was either Anohana or Your Lie in April
Clannad After Story in the sunflower field 😭
First time? No idea. Maybe one of those iconic sad moments from Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood. Most recent was LOOK BACK though. What an emotional movie.
Edit: first might’ve actually been Erased, in the scene at the end of Episode 8 where Kayo has a decent breakfast for the first time, which is really funny because growing up I usually just had breakfast cereal and that’s really not that great either. Maybe it was the music that got me. I liked Erased’s soundtrack.
Death of Going Merry.
Saikano.
guy i know watch it cause i said it messed me up. Dude was locked in for 4 days afterwards… seriously I liked it but my God thst show breaks you down. Only show i watched where fan subber said stop here if you want happy ending. That was like episode 5.
I also cried at Saikano… my friend told me I would, and I’m like “nah I never cry”
I was wrong.
Hard to remember them, Eureka 7, I think the whole ppl on the other side adopting him and really treating him like a son after he ran away, scenes with his grandpa would make me tear up (I was like 14/15 when I watched it so renton was very relatable, he was like me at 13, then by the end he grows and matured past me at the time after all the sht he went through) I really like how all the characters are written in that show, they actually have real emotions, change over time, feel real, hella diversity.

I feel like it had to be earlier tho, cant be the first time I got emotional over anime, bet it was digimon or the pokemon movie where pikachu seems dead or whatever
fk couldve been yugioh, I loved yugis grandpa, done sent him to the shadow realm
Probably the first season of Re:Zero or Neon Genesis Evangelion. I don’t remember which I watched first.
Violet Evergarden, episode 9. You know the one.
Though since you mentioned the movie, I nearly cried over how angry I was that this was the ending they decided to go with.
I cried while watching Yuri on Ice, when yuri perfectly executed his eros performance ;_; those were wild times
