Most horrifying moment in an anime.

[Not G. Ivingname]

This:

Spoiler: Higurashi No Naku Koro Ni

I won't spoil what happens in it, but anyone who's seen that anime knows what happens without watching the video. Oddly enough, I've never seen that anime, though this scene alone was enough to make me want to watch it, and I will as soon as I finish Death Note. Given that and the fact that Elfen Lied and Hellsing were my first two animes respectively since childhood, what does that say about my state of mind?

O.O

I don't know what is scarier...

The fight or how badly the voices fits the girls.

 

[Banana Phone Man]

School days I think has some shocking endings however I have never seen them.

This:

Spoiler: Higurashi No Naku Koro Ni

That one still scares me even now, that and the scene with the blond girl in pink (I forget the names a lot) Is getting stabbed by Shion so many times with Mion in the background. *shivers*

 

[Chevy235]

The part between pressing play and the inevitable braindeath that results from watching it.

 

[General Vagueness]

when they put what's-her-name on her knees and bring in the dog

 

[Layz92]

Spoiler

Couldn't help it. I don't watch much anime. I would say the first episode of the spawn animated series with the arson bit at the start.

So what moments in anime have haunted your psyche and made you say WHAT THE FUCK JAPAN?!

Edit: It doesn't have to be gory.

I remember one scene in an anime (i cant remember what it was called) but one of the characters were baby-sitting for a work friend (i think) and as she changes the babied nappy she sees the babies penis and says something along the lines of "it looks like a baby elephant" then some scenes of the baby's penis flopping whilst elephant noises were going on, i doubt if i can find a video on youtube since of the nudity and stuff.

The nail-ripping scene from Higurashi No Naku Koro Ni

Spoiler

Fuuuucking hell.

Yeah... I'm gonna go with this one...

 

[Jack and Calumon]

Spoiler: A stereotypical me answer

In Digimon Tamers, there's a part where Jeri is trapped and on the verge of conscious and unconscious. There, she half dreams about when her mother died. She is so little and when she runs out the room she see's her older self with her usual puppet as if they were imagined by someone deeply disturbed.

Stop the video when you see it. You'll know when you do.
Apologies, but I couldn't find anything with that in it, and the whole dream is much worse.

Spoiler: My Actual Answer

In Death Note when you come to realisation just how messed up Light really is.

Spoiler: Calumon

 

[Kuroneko97]

The whole Meakashi Arc in Higurashi No Naku Koro Ni. The one where Shion basically goes mad and goes on a killing spree.

Spoiler: Why they laugh when they kill

 

[THE M3RCENARY]

L's death. D:

so sad, so sad.

 

[twistedmic]

Elfen Lied , on the whole, is horrifying but several parts stand out due to their high level of fucked-upedness

Spoiler

when you find out that Mayu had been repeatedly raped/molested by her step-father and that her own mother blamed her (Mayu) for the molestation. The entire scene where the kids beat young Lucy's dog to death, especially when it turns out that the girl was only pretending to be friends with Lucy in order to get to hurt or humiliate Lucy, or get to her dog. And when Lucy snaps and goes on a jealous rampage that ends with her killing Kouta's younger sister and his father in front of him (Kouta)

And from Akira

Spoiler

what happens to Tetsuo from the point he runs into the kid to basically the end of the movie, specifically when Tetsuo starts to fall apart, then merges with the remains of Akira and morphsinto that giant, bulbous blob.

angel sanctuary. basically the plot revolves around incest between a brother and a sister but the brother is destined to become the next angel to take down heaven. this is also interspersed with some random acts of gore such as watching a blokes arm get ripped in two.

 

[rezaDN1992]

a lot of scenes from elfen lied or higurashi. But the nail scene from higurashi is the only scene in anime wich i am afraid to watch another time. But the scene in elfen lied were nana's limbs are getting rippid off almost made me puke.

 

[backwater]

When I saw the scene in Evangelion when Eva 01 eats the Angel to heal it's own body I felt sick. I was 12 or maybe younger when i saw it.

 

[Sacman]

My obvious answer would be Elfen Lied... But
Goosh, Goosh just takes the cake...

 

[awol360]

During the Vampire Twins arc of Black Lagoon; The 2nd Barrage. When the little kid flashes his/her? downstairs business (to quote Earl Greg) to Rock

 

[TheYellowCellPhone]

Mayu's backstory flashback in Elfen Lied. That was far worse than any of the bizarre unrealistic gorefests in the rest of that (quite excellent) Anime.

[small]And the Abridged series took it and made it even worse...[/small]

Screw the gore fests, horrible experiments, and murders in that anime, Mayu's backstory was the closest I've ever come to crying. Because of that scene she became my favorite character in all the animes.

I love that anime, but it enjoys curb-stomping my heart.

[small]"I promised myself I wouldn't cry anymore, I'm strong, but why am I? I'm... happy for you, I'm happy you'll be fed and warm unlike me. I'm... happy for you..."[/small]

 

[bushwhacker2k]

When I watch an anime hoping for something good and it turns out to be a generic shounen flick.

Horror is a + in my books
