In tv, it was "Jurassic Bark" (after I saw that, I couldn't look at my own dog for like a week without getting all teary-eyes, man I'm glad he's still hangin in there).

In film, it was the end of "Schindler's List", when Schindler breaks down and cries because he wasn't able to save more people from the death camps.

Yesterday I finished watching Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann and I am now depressed for two reasons.
1. the ending
<spoiler=seriously do not click if you don't want MASSIVE SPOILERS>So, everyone defeats the Villain in a final battle that involves throwing around entire galaxies like frisbees. then just when the Hero marries his true love she ceases to exist (it's even worse that the afterlife is hinted at slightly in the series but since she was basically a hologram she's just gone forever). hero passes all of his responsibilities to another character and wanders alone for the rest of his life. At the end he finds a child attempting to get food and helps him out, the kid says how awesome he is and the hero flat-out says "no, I guess I'm nobody anymore" as he watches his friends continue their battles without him.
2.The series was so good that now I don't think anything else will live up to it. So now I'm sulking and trying to find something else to watch.

so what endings (be they games, movies, shows, or books) left you depressed and sulking?

Note:Elfen Lied also had this effect on me.
I couldn't be depressed over Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann, it was too awesome to make me sad.

Elfen Lied, however, is the only thing that brought me to the brink of crying. It wasn't the anime though, but the manga. The anime follows the manga very closely up to the last two episodes of the series. Then manga kept going on for at least another 13 episodes worth of anime. And let me tell you this: THE ENDING IS THE DEFINITION OF TRAGIC.
I watched the anime first, made me bawl my eyes out, then read the manga..and just couldnt talk for a whole day. However artful they may have wanted it to be, that ending was just too fucking dark for me v.v..<3 Lucy D:

Many ASPECTS of the ending of The Shield:(apostrophes have been removed because they fuck up the spoiler tabs for some reason, not bad grammar)

Shane ends up poisoning his wife and kid so they die in their sleep, and he's in the middle of writing his suicide note when the cops show up. He shoots himself before they can stop him, so he doesn't even get to finish writing it. Vick sells Ronnie out and gets immunity for all their crimes, sending Ronnie to prison for everything the group has ever done. Meanwhile, Vick gets landed with a boring desk job. For him, that's pretty much the worst think they could have done. The last shot? Vick pulls a gun out his desk, gets up, and leaves. WE HAVE NO IDEA WHAT HE'S GOING TO DO. Side note: When Shane killed Lem, I almost CRIED. Oh, and for those who don't know: Vick, Shane, Ronnie and Lem are the four main characters of the show, and when the show starts, they are all best friends.

Professor Layton and the Unwound Future. "I'm sorry, Professor, but I'm not a gentleman yet!!!"
Just finished this game too, and I felt exactly the same.

Otherwise, the ending of The Amber Spyglass had me depressed for days. I really was expecting a happy ending for Will and Lyra, but sadly it wasn't to be... Damn you, Philip Pullman

I had that exact same feeling when I finished Azumanga Daioh, His and Her Circumstances, and Lucky Star.

OT: The ending to that movie "M" was pretty depressing.
Showed the parents of the murdered children saying how catching the killer won't bring their kids back.

The Movie version of the Play "The Crucible". I almost started crying had it not been for a kid near by saying the fallowing joke:

Triple Kill!

Oh god...
My did you have to remind me?

OT: The ending of Pan's labyrinth was kinda sad, although I had very mixed feelings at the end so I'm not 100% on what I felt

I'm going to have to agree with Gurren Lagann. Reminds me of this(SPOILERS and only makes sense if you've seen the series):


Other than that, I was admittedly very saddened by the end of FFX. FFX-2 ruined that, but then again, it was FFX-2.
What series is that? Seriously, tell me please.

My would be the ending to the film Kingpin and Leaving Las Vegas (the one with Nicolas Cage and it is a really depressing film).

MGS4: Just that hopelessness for Snake after everything he did, although I'm still confused as to why Otacon couldn't have just gone through the hallway himself
If you let that little robot thingy get too far away from Snake it starts to lose power.

yes that one was pretty sad, im angry that they never made another episode with the dog... something....

But another that i really felt sad was the ending of the iron giant.... in the end he basicly sacrifices himself for a community and military that wanted him dead....

One that really makes me sad is the end of Conker bad fur day videogame for the n64..... even tough he was a greedy, drunk bastard, in the end he would trade his kingdom for a chance to reunite with berry his girlfriend.... and ofc microsoft refused to make a sequel... instead they prefered to launch the same game but with updated graphics... wich i tought it was a dumb idea....

also could anyone teach me how to do the spoiler thingy? im kinda new and running in the dark here :S

Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann. A crazy, over-the-top mecha series. I highly recommend it.

True, but he certainly wouldn't lose power at the end of that hallway, especially when Otacon uses it, plus the battery is effecient.

Hm, I only played it once so I'm not up to speed on all the details. So...plot hole I guess?

I can't really name anything but pretty much any sad ending of any kind of thing makes me cry. I'm a sap.

Music videos, games, books, TV shows. And they make me hate said item forever. In fact, I actually like spoilers because they can form my decision about how I will never watch/read/play a certain thing. Ever.

Cold Case for example has a lot of really depressing episodes. They just hurt your heart. And I'm not even talking about the ending--which I don't even think I managed to catch--but yeah. Terrible.


P.S. TitanAtlas, All you need to do is just make these spoiler tags: Anything you write goes inside them and bam, concealed.
