yeah...
Definitely Claymore

Socrates in Love aka Sekachu.. it's really sad. D:
Zettai Kareshi is also a good one.. and Moe Kare..

edit: whoops, sorry.. I thought your post said that shoujo is okay. xD;;

Am I the only person who didn't find Elfen Lied, Claymore, Jisatsu Circle and Berserk depressing?


If going by what I find fascinating most people find depressing, I guess I'd have to say..
Goth, Tokyo Akazukin and Uzumaki.
(I did feel a little depressed at the end of Tokyo. I mean, !!

________________

I didn't find those depressing either.. Except for maybe elfen lied, that was really sad, how they treated the persacons (don't remember how it's spelled), I'm reffering to the anime, because the way the manga was drawn, it looked as if someone wrote a less sadistic, more sirius version of "the happy tree friends"


Tokyo Akazukin I'm not sure how depressing this was.. It was mostly grossly violent>.<


Gunslinger Girl Seems depressing, but I haven't read to much of it (lack of time).. And I think it involes tragedy..



Tsuki Yadoru - one volume yaoi- no tragedy with a happy ending, but it was depressing, really...


Shiiku Gakari Rika - another yaoi, really depressing and sad and even more.. Think, "The Lord of the Flies"..

If I had a fantasy self, it'd be a tentacle monster.

'Gossly?' How was it gross? It was wonderfully, fascinatingly violent. Never grossly.

*Cough* *Cough* Anyway, back on topic. MPD Psycho could be counted as depressing. Mostly I just feel sorry for the poor guy.. so many personalities.. only one of them his in the first place, and it turns out he is not really 'himself'.... confusing..

I liked Gunslinger Girls. It wasn't depressing, and got boring after awhile.

I guess you only read them for the violence, and not the underlying tones~ =D

So, of course you won't find it depressing~ And it's not depressing per se, you don't want to slit your wrists after reading it, but there are moments where you emphatize with a character.

Though the only one that did so was Claymore for me~

Nah. They are what they are: slasher, violent fantasy and a small mystery story. There is not much to it really.

On the other hand, Basilisk is unbelievably depressing (still struggling to finish it). And Ai-Ren (there's no way you'll get beyond the first volume unless you are a masochist).

for some reason i thought Yubisaki Milk Tea was a really sad manga T_T it makes me cry almost every 5 chapter or so xD over all... a really really enjoyable read tho xD

Winter Flowers

________________

Lots and lots of blood!

Jisatsu Circle/Suicide Club - Disturbingly sad

Uzumaki - Ending is sad, but mostly horror

Bokurano - Even though you mentioned this, I just can't not mention it - It's sad....

White Clouds - Heart-warmingly sad. Will make you cry in sympathy.

Elfen Lied - Art is okay, but it's somewhat sad. Depressing mostly.

Higurashi no Naku Koro ni series - Sad, horrifying, and betrayal describes this mostly.

Because Goodbyes are Coming Soon

Excellent, poignant one-shot about Okita Soji.

Also...
Elfen Lied is a good choice, though it's also rather horrific. If you go that route, Narutaru (you need the uncensored version) is also a very good read.

One shot
Akazukin to Yasashii Ookami
Difficult to download it, because it was only posted by te author in pixim.

Hey.

U shoud read the series of Deep Love.

It's really sad and depressing.
U can't stop crying.

1- Ayu
2- Host
3- Reina
4- Pao

But it's quite hard to find a site with all of them.
Mangafox used to have it, but they don't now. I don't know why.

U can also read Ai Ren
