Probably the most emotionally movitating and touching series or movie I've seen is GUNBUSTER OVA, followed closely with MAISON IKKOKU, NADIA, MAHOROMATIC, then MACROSS.
GUNBUSTER as anyone who's seen it knows, truly speaks the universal loneliness we all feel. The isolation and the despair when we realize only we alone can make a difference, individually we must change for the better. The strength of the human spirit is incredibly touching in this series. IMO GB should be required watching for all high schoolers. 
MAISON IKKOKU is touching because it reminds us all that love can blossom even after we've given up on it and ourselves. True love is unpredictable and at times mysterous. NADIA is touching because is reminds me to live life to its fullest. The sacrifices the characters make for each other, IMO show the universal and familial love we all share. Famous words, "LIVE!" MAHOROMATIC is touching because it shows the bittersweet need to protect those we cherish. And to remember, at the end, what we really remember and want is to remain with the ones we love. All the rest of the noise in life is just that, noise. MACROSS is touching because it shows us the horrors of war. The loss of innocence, self, family and loved ones. It also shows us the incredible human spirit and how it can triumph over adversity. |

Kimi Ga Nozumu Eien has already been mentioned but i still want to poke at that title.
it's the only anime ever that has had me crying out loud for forty minutes straight. during the next last episode i saw where things where going and cried because of that. during the last it got worse than i thought it would and i cried even more. 
(am just about crying when i think of the series while writing this.) |

Easily "Chobits" I'll try not to have any spoilers here.
Maybe I'm a little biased, since I'm not as familiar with most other Anime. All I know is that I found an episode of Chobits online (fortunately the first episode), and had to see more. The next day I bought the first half of the series. The following day I bought the rest. I became a true fan. Now I know saying one Anime is the best is pretentious and rude to the others, but this one is my favorite. If you watch the series from start to finish, you'll see what I mean, it's written like a big Hollywood movie; excellent writing, wonderful acting, great characters, and very entertaining. My biggest problem is no one I know (personally) has heard anything about it, except from me. Thank you for indulging me. |

Okay, a big, GOOD, Hollywood movie. Like Sleepless in Seattle or such. |

Rurouni Kenshin, hands down. Kenshins ideals were...admirable, but even though they were slightly unrealistic, they made me wonder why more people couldn't be like that.n I'm Yahiko-san by the way!

For me it would be Hanada Shonen-shi aka The Story of Young Hanada.I just finish watching this anime and i find it the most touching tear dropping anime i have ever watch.
It can really make a guy cry watching this anime.I have seen saikano but it didn't really hit me at all but hanada really touch me big time.

Gunslinger Girl was so touching to me. Not so much because the little girls are contrasted as asssassins, but rather how they still manage to be kids once in a while. The ending, though, spoiler[when Angelica died during the meteor shower, and all the girls were singing Beethoven's 9th, 1st movement, killed me. It's hard for me to listen to that song now...]

hey...hasn't anyone mentioned gensomaden saiyuki? honestly, when i watched it, it was the first ever anime that made me cry without realizing it. the characters' pasts were just so sad, especially nataku.
say that i'm emotional, but wolf's rain was really quite ok. i almost cried near the end, but didn't.[/spoiler] |

1. spoiler[There's no solid evidence that Angelica died, although it strongly suggested so.] 2. spoiler[Ode "An die Freude" (Ode to Joy) is in the 4th Movement, not the 1st.] |
