AIR doesn't have to rely on such gimmicks.

Hanbun no Tsuki ga Noboru Sora, on the other hand, while not really "the saddest of all time" is a excellent example of a bittersweet story with a pretty natural feel to it.
Are you dissing my SaiKano? I don't see how anything is forced except for the ending, which in my opinion isn't really good. The best part of the ending is how it is used to start the series.
