Okay, I want series that involve many strong feelings and emotions, so strong that can easily affect the reader.

The feelings and emotions can be happiness, sadness, fear, love, jealous, affection, anxiety, terror, depression, despair, distrust, disgust, hatred, horror, boredom, panic, pity, loneliness, sorrow, suffering, anguish, dread, lust, regret, frustration, contempt, desire, grief, guilt, curiosity, hope, trust, worry, shyness, and any other emotions human can feel.

Thanks in advance 😀

EDIT 1:

Well, sorry if I didn't put any specific detail before. I want series that mix, shake, stir (or any other words with similiar meaning) the reader's feelings, like from negative feelings to positive to negative and so on. The best example I can give is Onani Master Kurosawa.

EDIT 2:

I prefer Shounen and Seinen, but shoujo or josei like DN Angel and Oresama Teacher are fine. Don't wanna read hentai, yaoi, yuri, shounen ai, and shoujo ai.

Well, any good story should be able to move the reader's heart, but grave emotional transitions are still rare. Here's my (incomplete) selection:

Mon Seul by KIZUKI Akira (Seinen)
Provoking. Altough it made me cringe at some points, I couldn't break away from these pages until I had finished the whole story.
Triggers: relief, doubt, contempt, confusion, sense of injustice, sympathy, sadness, distance

Seishun Kouryakuhon by AKIZUKI Sorata (Shoujo)
Nostalgic look on high school graduation. Might make you tear up, if you have experienced it yourself.
Triggers: nostalgia, joy, curiosity, wistfulness, gratitude, motivation, hope

Made in Heaven by SAKURAI Ami/ YASHIKI Yukari (Josei)
Set in the near future. Realistically dark, it leaves you with an unexpected sense of warmth.
Triggers: empathy, emptiness, antipathy, bitterness, sense of injustice, sorrow, solace, love

Itoshi no Kana by TANAKA Yutaka (Seinen)
Slice of life reflections on death, bouncing between narrated suicide scenes and scenic everyday life. Profound and very life-affirming.
Triggers: curiosity, tenderness, amusement, bliss, wonder, anxiety, warmth, comfort, serenity, sympathy, regret, humility, realistic confidence, hope

Touhou Shinigami: Meteor Methuselah Gaiden by OZAKI Kaori (Shoujo with Shounen-ish feeling)
Stand-alone prequel to Immortal Rain. Hard, tragic, yet soothing.
Triggers: amusement, satisfaction, empathy, repulsion, sorrow, parental warmth

My Young Cat and My Old Dog by Cho (Webtoon)
Snapshots capturing the relationship between pets and their owners. Bittersweet like reality itself.
Triggers: comfort, amusement, happiness, sense of belonging, empathy, regret, grief, respect

Hotel by Boichi (Seinen)
Science-fiction again. Sometimes thought-provoking, sometimes moving, sometimes surreal. Worth a peek.
Triggers: Wonder, pity, empathy, astonishment, guilt, hope

Recommendations I second:
