masakiuma · October 13th, 2007, 09:39 PM

I recently finished Tenjou Tenge (recently meaning today), and this inspired me to discuss this....
My favorite saddest moments:

Tenjou Tenge

Chrono Crusade

Kino's Journey

Now and Then, Here and There

Silent Mobius

and one for the old-school fans....
Sailor Moon

Obviously

Air:

Kanon 2006:

One: True Stories:

If word is true about Clannad, it's sadness factor will be second to none...but Air's is tough to beat IMO.

I don't even need to tag a spoiler, anyone who's seen 5 Centimeters Per Second knows exactly how sad it is.

In no particular order

Tenchi Muyo -

Kanon 2006 - Has plenty of sad bits but

Hanbun no Tsuki ga Noboru Sora - Anyone who's seen this will know just how sad it is.

Midori no Hibi -

Chobits -

Da Capo -

And some bits from Elfen Lied.

Lord Timaeus · October 14th, 2007, 07:54 AM

Pick a death scene from Zeta Gundam. Any death scene will do, really.

Although my favorite Gundam death scene is actually in G Gundam...

Also, the elevator scene in Gungrave, as well as the final episode. No explanation needed.

loplop · October 14th, 2007, 07:56 AM

The end of Onegai Teacher Episode 11

The end of Episode 13 of Mahoromatic's Second Season

The end of Tsukihime

My favorite saddest moments: Tenjou Tenge The death of Shin Natsume and Mana Kuzunoha... this was extra sad for me because my opinion of Shin was constantly fluctuating between "This guy is awesome" and "I hate this guy so much..." and at the time, he was in my 'awesome' category Chrono Crusade Chrono and Rosette die in each other's arms, then Father Remington has a monologue on the horrible things that humanity does after this event. Great way to tie the anime into real life Kino's Journey Final episode when Kino learns the village knew they were going to be consumed Now and Then, Here and There Pretty much the whole series, right? Silent Mobius The death of Roy, and the disappearance of Katsumi and one for the old-school fans.... Sailor Moon Season 1, "death" of Tuxedo Mask...especially the American Version because of that song __________________ Currently Watching: Book of Bantorra Currently Playing: Xenoblade Chronicles http://myanimelist.net/animelist/masakiuma

Yukito Kunisaki Registered User Join Date: May 2003 Posts: 3,890	Obviously Air: Misuzu's Death Scene and the Beach Scene. Kanon 2006: Makoto's arc ending (All of Episode 10) and all of episode 23 when Ayu tells Yuuichi to forget her. One: True Stories: When Kouhei disappears and Mizuka is crying, she ends up living her life by herself and keeping him in her mind, but one day, when he comes back, it is a tearfully happy scene. If word is true about Clannad, it's sadness factor will be second to none...but Air's is tough to beat IMO.

One of the better BGM in RahXephon was used for this scene as well.

lmc87 Resident Tenchi Expert. Join Date: Feb 2007 Location: Scotland Posts: 756	In no particular order Tenchi Muyo - When Ryoko is in Ryo-ohki bleeding after fighting, always gets me. Kanon 2006 - Has plenty of sad bits but Matoko's ending was the best. The production in episode 10 was excellent. Hanbun no Tsuki ga Noboru Sora - Anyone who's seen this will know just how sad it is. Midori no Hibi - When Midori was no longer on his hand, that was pretty sad Chobits - When Chi's hard drive got wiped, i was like noooo Da Capo - When robot miharu finally runs out of energy And some bits from Elfen Lied. __________________ CONGOGUM.COM - Not your typical blog about anime.

Although my favorite Gundam death scene is actually in G Gundam... ... where Schwarz/Kyoji asks Domon to kill him in order to defeat the Devil Gundam. This scene was executed perfectly, and Domon's manly tears just goes to show how talented Tomokazu Seki is. Also, the elevator scene in Gungrave, as well as the final episode. No explanation needed.
