Looking for something that takes me on an emotional ride (sh.itjust.works)

Hi, I’m looking for a show that will make me sad, angry or something like that. Some picks from shows that I have already seen:

• Angel Beats! - Didn’t care for it • Clannad • Anohana • Death Parade - Still get goosebumps • Kimi no Na wa • Shigatsu no Lion - I got so incredibly pissed off during that bullying arc (in a good way) • Koe no Katachi - Emotional rollercoaster

There’s probably a few more, but those come to mind. Do you have any more suggestions?

I'm gonna second both Violet Evergarden and Your Lie in April.

Violet Evergarden, hands down, is the most I've cried watching something.

Plastic Memories is also really good for that at the end, but the overall show imo isn't quite as good. Still, I rated it a 9.2/10

Came here for Violet Evergarden. My wife could always tell when I was watching it because I straight up sobbed like a child every single episode. Bring tissues; you will not be okay.

Both sound very promising, I’ll look into them
