Does someone know of any really depressing anime series?
I just wanna see someone in a situation thats worse than mine <33

Rainbow should give you a suitably bleak experience. Now and Then, Here and There is also incredibly depressing.

Shiroth · 2010-06-28, 15:11

She, the Ultimate Weapon has quite the depressing set-up, along with a few seriously hard hitting episodes. There's one episode i'll never forget, and is easily one of the most depressing 22 minutes you can ever experience.

Nevmore · 2010-06-28, 15:22

Thank you soo much, if you find more please tell me

TyG3R · 2010-06-28, 15:23

Jigoku Shoujo

Wolf's Rain perhaps? Depending on which girl you support, Kimi ga Nozomu Eien can be variously depressing or infuriating.

Pale Cocoon can also be vaguely depressing, in the all-hope-is-pointless kind of way.

But if you're really sadomasochistic, you can go crush yourself with Grave of the Fireflies.

I guess I'll "crush" myself with grave of the fireflies..
I'm sooo of balanse, yesterday and the days before that I really liked Romantic animes. But It kinda doesnt feel right without my ex... haha (pathetic me)

Shiroth · 2010-06-28, 16:09

Yeah if you want to be crushed, then Grave of the Fireflies is the film to do it, by far.

Nevmore · 2010-06-29, 16:34

Grave of The Fireflies; I have never cried so much in my entire life, I feel much bether after crying out. Thank you alot <33

Divini · 2010-06-29, 16:44

I feel like I'm spoiling things just by naming these

Chrono Crusade - the anime
Elfen Lied
End of Evangelion

I'm going to second (or am i the fifth now) Grave of the Fireflies. Just because

End of Evangelion

Eh? Doesn't really stick out as particularly depressing to me... Just weird and nonsensical.

Well I guess it all depends on the viewer...

Spoiler for End of Eva:

Chrisjon · 2010-06-29, 21:06

I second Elfen Lied. Although at first Elfen is not really depressing it gets more depressing the more you learn about the characters. Don't judge Elfen by your first impression.

The Chaos · 2010-06-29, 21:43

maybe NANA ? It made me cry many times

Yeah i'd second this. Some seriously depressing moments to be seen.

Random32 · 2010-06-30, 04:43

its been suggested many times before, but Elfen Lied and Grave of the Fireflies are depressing

I also recommend CLANNAD and CLANNAD ~After Story~

airstorm · 2010-06-30, 07:27

I'm somewhat surprised 5cm Per Second hasn't been mentioned, especially as the OP mentioned relationships. Its not a series though (well, technically it is 3 chapters back to back).

Scorch · 2010-06-30, 09:34

Texhnoloyze - it manages to be the single most depressing anime I've ever seen, and I've watched Grave of the Fireflies.

It's only depressing at the end IMO. I'd say up until the end, it gets your hopes up (just like any other romance anime)..but BAM, you're wrong! Lol.
