10. I rarely cry, but there are a few anime/manga have made me cry. All of them are listed below, but there is one option I actually didn't cry for. Try identifying it!

Cardcaptor Sakura

CLANNAD

Code Geass: Lelouch of the Rebellion

Monster

Pandora Hearts

Zankyou no Terror

Cardcaptor Sakura: I really almost cried for two days because of the ending when I was about 11. How unbelievable that was when I look back on!
CLANNAD: Very unexpected, suddenly I couldn't stop my tears when seeing Tomoya finally understand his father in the second last (?) episode.
Code Geass: Why didn't I cry for Code Geass? I like to think about that question. Maybe the ending gave me a too complex feeling at the time, and there was no room for tears.
Monster: Cried at the end of episode 71.
Pandora Hearts: I cried for a few times. I was just too into the manga.
Zankyou no Terror: In the last episode, when Nine saw the green aurora in the sky, I couldn't hold back my tears when seeing his expression on face.
