Of course Grave of the Fireflies. Kiki's Delivery Service gets to me in a very different way.

As for series, Trigun (old one), end of episode 23.

    Grave of the Fireflies is kind of the wrecking-ball version of this. Powerful, not subtle, and leaves you utterly devastated.

    (Runner-up for me might be Gurren Lagann.)

    Gurren Lagann is one of my favorites, and the ending always tears me to shreds. Also the space portions during the big battles against the Anti-spirals (should be fairly obvious why). Strangely, the mid-season-1 drop (just before Nia was introduced) never got to me.

    I've yet to see Grave of the Fireflies (when I was younger I was scared of what I'd heard, nowadays I'm just overworked and probably depressed) but I will cry every fucking time I watch Kiki's Delivery Service. Moreso at the people being nice than anything else. I've become such a softie as I've aged.

    Ditto for Trigun, I assume I know the episode you're talking about offhand. Look up Trigun Hallelujah AMV sometime if you want a nice feels trip.
