An anime that made you cry

One Piece.
Oda sure knows how to give people a pretty memorable death, Ace died, I cried, then 2 episodes later Whitebeard died and I cried. Also Whitebeards sacrifice made me tear up... and there's the Going Merry's funeral which made me cry...
Nope, none. I do appreciate the touching moments in anime, such that I remember FMA (not Brotherhood) and Casshern Sins were chocked full of. The only fiction I can think of that I get choked up over is Air Bud. And as contrast to that I found the puppy moment in Elfen Lied as almost hilarious. That show was just cheap thrills that made you think the creator was a bit sick in the head. If you stuck with the manga any distance, it made you feel as if you yourself were sick in the head.
I'm the sort of person who is very easily moved to tears and someone who has watched quite a bit of anime in her time, so to list all of them that I've cried during would be quite a hassle. One particularly strange time an anime that made me cry, though, was Minami-ke. If you've never seen it Minami-ke is a humor/slice-of-life anime, by definition a generally very laid-back genre. But, there was a character named Fuyuki who I really felt I could understand, so every time things didn't work out for him I got very teary-eyed.
He was just this kid who got moved around by a single-parent so often that he never got to become part of a group or ever even learned how to be and so he just ended up sitting there quietly and doing whatever people asked him to because he didn't know how to say "no". So, basically me when I was a kid. Or me now. And probably me in the future. I'm pretty certain I'll be a socially awkward door-mat for the rest of my life.

For some wierd reason Naturo Shippuden makes me cry a lot. I guess Narutos pure good heartedness and unconditional self sacrifice for others triggers some internal emotional need inside of me..
Samurai X(The Rurouni Kenshin OVA's), is one of the most emotionally powerful stories I've ever had the pleasure of experiencing.
EDIT: One word... "Bang..."

My eyes water up during near the end of Grave of the Fireflies (you know which scenes I'm talking about).
Umm. Fate/stay night? It's just so sad, after everything Saber came through, she has to continue the vicious cycle of dying just to get into another Holy Grail War, until someone frees her from that.
Because last master was a *****.
But I guess you're talking about the death/funeral of you know whom.

Yes, all those Major Armstrong moments made me cry manly tears of manliness.Naeras said:

Holy shit, I know right? When I saw that for the first time, I thought it was the end of the show. I'd watched a few other series like that, where they have a single season and that's it (Cowboy Bebop, Samurai Champloo, etc) and GitS is a fairly depressing show, so it all fit into place in my mind for them to do something similar.Stryc9 said:
OT: Seriously? only one or so mentions for Grave of the Fireflies?? That is honestly the most depressing movie I've seen in my entire life. When it was on TV I got my girlfriend to watch it. That was a big mistake. At the end she was crying literally to the point of sobbing. Like, not normal crying when you watch something sad, but crying like when you were five and scraped your knee.
No anime has made me cry on the outside but some have made me cry on the inside. Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann, Fate/Stay Night (and the movie Unlimited Blade Works) and Fate/Zero.
