That's why its good to have lower expectations for anything stops me from being majorly
dissapointed with tht exception of a few movies ha-ha. When I read about parts of it I can see where it would be sad but depressing we will see...

evilomar Wrote:Grave of the Fireflies was fantastic depressing movie. However if you have seen Barefoot Gen, it might not be that depressing. Arcadia of My Youth, Windaria, Railroad to the Stars and Dog of Flanders are pretty sad as well. However, I don't care if some don't consider it anime, nohting will ever make me cry as much as when Optimus Prime died in Transformers the movie.
Well at least I'm not the only one who has seen Gen. Does Railroad involve cats? The title made me think of 'Night on the Galactic Railroad'(which is kinda sad), but Yahoo gave me no info about it.
-edit- Wait, forget the cats. I just found 'Rail of the Star - A True Story of Children' in the ANN encyclopedia, which is what I guess your talking about. But not much info is given. Whats it about?

You shouldn't look up what happens in the story. It kind of ruins the whole point of the narrative.

You would think that but I do that from time to time it tells me if it worth watching or not

Gonna list a couple more I didn't see listed. Above poster kinda listed one.
Spike getting killed at the end. Or if you're talking to Zagatto then Spike taking a nap at the end.
There are a lot of sad moments in Naruto but the most depressing sad scene is when Sakura poors her heart out to Sasuke to try to get him to stay with her or at least let her come along with him.

What are you talking about? At the end of Berserk Gatsu and friends beat down all the *****. And him and Griffith get married. At the end of Evangelian Shinji Rei and Asuka all beat the shit of out the ***'s. And in Escaflowne Van is actualy a women and Hitomi is actually a lesbian so you see? Everything works out in the end! (in my mind anyway Woohahahaahgagagagagagagagaaaaaaaaaaaaaaahahahahahahahahahahbuhahahahahha..........Time to Instant Trasmission out of here)
