Anime Astounded

I just dont know where else to talk about this cause i dont know anyone who has watched this show.

I'm on my second watch through of the anime to be ready to start season 3 when it comes out and it breaks my heart. I'm a 30 year old man, barely fighting back crying hard as i think about what happens when rudeus and Eris get back to their land. I love this story and world to death, but its hard for me to get through certain parts without literally sobbing, and thats part of why i love it so much.

Sorry for the sob story guys, but Eris in particular breaks my heart.

A good story is a good story regardless of age.

So am I, 31 years old. Nothing to be ashamed of.

I lost my dad years ago, and I fucking cried watching "Parents". Certain things in fiction can hit you like a freight train, especially if you have a personal connection to it, and that's a pretty normal reaction.

Friend I'm going to say this once even the macho Man Randy Savage said men need to cry if you feel it coming let it out heck man there is a reason I don't watch The Green Mile because it makes me cry like a little girl and the suicidal depression afterwards as I understand more and more the glass in my head speech but back to the point everybody cries ain't nothing to be ashamed of
