Hey vassup everyone!
I've finished reading Video Girl Ai recently, and I noticed I started feeling an emotional response (mostly depression and sadness to the point where I cried a bit). Now, I'm yearning to find something that makes me cry (if you didn't read the title) from either an emotional moment of tragedy or joy. I preferably want to read shounen or seinen because shoujo and josei tends to get repetitive. I personally don't hate them, but I tend to enjoy shounen and seinen more.
So, please send me your recommendations of what you think is a tear-jerking shounen/seinen manga.
Thanks in advance! biggrin

Pluto
Say Hello to Black Jack (especially cases with down-syndrome babies, cancer patients, and psychiatric ward. the scanlation hasn't upped to those parts, though)

seinen
ai-ren
poppoya love letter
bokurano

shonen
chrono crusade

on a side note, i just finished a shoujo manga -bara no tameni. It has many tear-jerking moments, so do give it a try if you feels like reading shoujo.

I second Ai Ren

Oh and Saikano, these are the only two I really know that have made me teary eyed.

I almost never cry from reading something, and if I do it's just tears down my cheeks. Hotel had me in heaving sobs for ten minutes, though. eyes

Kon no Ki Konoha - bah, forgot this is considered shoujo, since the author does seinen works too. It's a one-shot and worth the read though.
