Jesus personally crucifying all the sinners on Earth who say that Naruto is bad is pure irony and lol. :lol:

While not directly sad (the subject just said emotional in general) the of the final eps of Giant Robo still manage to get a response for me in a number of parts...in particular:

Daisaku's final run to Robo (in particular the final stretch, when his fallen comrades appear to encourage him)
The final battle that ensues around this (with the gathered IPO forces throwing everything they've got at Big Fire's forces. This is still probably one of the few final battles in anime where I feel safe using the word 'Epic.' The 'winner takes all' feel comes through pretty strongly here.)
and
The epilogue (I won't go into detail for spoiler reasons, but the final epilogue regarding Genya and the follow-up dedication got me choked up the first time I watched it.)

30 minutes that can get me to cry every. single. time.

Gunbuster / Diebuster :(

Kanon (2002) - the end of this one was far more emotional than 2006

The Girl Who Leapt Through Time - I get that feeling in the back of my throat towards the end

Minami-ke
.. Chiaki just met a new friend while on her way home from school one day;
they were playing and enjoying each other and became very close friends when,
for reasons unknown, Kana came running by and Kicked "Yamada" into a passing-by
dump-truck O_O Chiaki ran as hard and fast as she could trying to save her now
found friend only to stuble and fall on the pavement .. with tears in her eyes and
a sudden loss for the meaning of life, she broke-down and cryed over the loss she
had found that day! I don't think she will EVER forgive Kana for what SHE did that day!

RahXephon and Chrno Crusade are up there. The most surprising moment of sadness for me was completely out of the blue in Excel Saga - in the Episode-Without-The-Gags when Excel said "I tried so hard." Just the way she said that was perfect. All the more so when everything to that point was pure slap-stick.

Ghost in the Shell: Standalone Complex -
[spoiler]When the tachikoma die to save Batou.[/spoiler]

As far as emotions go, I figure that humor and sadness are the things that we identify the most with. But truly, the series that captured my attention the most (empathy perhaps?) was Kare Kano. That show was just poetic. Even the paper cut out episode and the still image finale.

I'd have to say Guld's fight against the ghost fighter in Macross Plus: The Movie, and the final scenes of Metropolis. Both are brilliantly directed and even managed to stir me a little, which given my attitude toward anime is quite an achievement.

Not a series, but the movie 5 Centimeters per Second really hit my soft spot. Not even Grave of the Fireflies brought me this close to tears.

Other than that, the conclusion of almost every arc of Kanon 2006 and certain parts of Elfen Lied were kind of emotional.

We can't crucify x-rex since he's like the equivalent of Jesus in the Screencaps section....
oh, wait. :?
I can say top editors, highly respected posters are not shy to say they like it. No one opens there mouth about DBZ though, my brother was forced to watch that and he's seen a lot of DBZ which he hates, Naruto as well which he loves so to say it's not the same thing. Overused, over hyped, over rated.. whatever the case, to deny the series of it's greatness deserves a crucifiction. So who's first?


Amen.

I am a HUGE fan of DragonBall Z, and Naruto, though I do disagree with parts here and there, I will, like x_rex said, not deny them greatness. Because I am a Ballzy poster

lol jk, dont hurt me :shock:
Everything came from nothing, therefore everything is nothing.
