World's Most Depressing Anime

Jun 05, 2007 00:24

I just watched "Nana" which is probably the world's most depressing anime. It's an accident to be honest. I had wanted to find the ultimate anime after a very, very good round of Kyou Kara Maou and just my luck, I ended up watching the world's most depressing anime EVER.

It's about human relationships. A boy meets a girl at work and they fall in love. But the boy already has a girlfriend who lives in a different apartment and has a separate life from him altogether. Things get entangled and all three ended up hurting each other. The shittest thing was, The Great Break-Up occured when the third wheeler (harsh, I know.) gets upset, runs out of a restaurant and the boy followed her out and unknowingly embraced her in front of his current girlfriend.

The damning thing was, I couldn't dislike any of the characters (not even the boy who cheated on both girls) and I KNOW they're just trapped in a world that they tried so hard to preserve for as long as possible. Yet all the time, I just felt a growing sense of dissatisfaction that escalates into depression. It's silly I know, but it's a scene I have been familiar with several times throughout my lifetime that happens to other people. And all the time I was thinking... "This is why I don't do relationships. It sucks when it ends."

It got me thinking of Faiz to be honest. I hadn't been replying to his messages because I don't want to start anything with him. I can see the end before it even begins, and it just scares the fuck out of me. Relationships need too much of an emotional investment and it's something that I cannot give without losing myself over it.

Because it'll be sad when it ends and I don't think I'll be able to deal with it.

ETA: Whoop! She totally got over her cheating boyfriend. Haha. She reminds me of me that girl. :D
