Ahh it's hard to think of some when you list every KyoAni Key adaptation....
Idolm@ster - It starts as normal happy-go-lucky idol antics, but if you stick with this, then...
Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann - MANLY TEARS, manly, manly tears
Puella Magi Madoka Magica - I'd talk about it, but anything I would say would be a spoiler.
Toradora! - Very well done romantic comedy
And for some movies:
5 centimeters per second, Voice of a Distant Star, and The Place Promised in Our Early Days - are all by the same person (Shinkai Makoto), and do a superb job illustrating the relationship between the male and female lead, and how precisely and skillfully their emotions are portrayed.
Grave of the Fireflies - Takes place during the WWII-era, where two orphaned children struggling to survive in the countryside. I'd like to add this was the first anime that brought me to the brink of tears.
