one isnt doing the good anime's justice the best animes for me were the sad one personally the saddest was-Anohana.
Angle beats made me dehydrated as well,so did clannad/afterstory.
stiens gates also deserves mention too,i had so much respect for the kyoma by the end of it?
most of the mainstream anime namely one piece,fairy tail and Dragon ball too made me sad at points
i also cried during the second season of oregairu but that is situation depending on if you could understand what was going on (a lot of reading in between the lines).

I really enjoyed Akame ga Kill when I wasn't really thinking about the show. I just really have to rant and point this one detail out without spoiling: the transitioning is too far off and demented for me. *Critic mode on?* Let's start with the beginning.
In Episode one, Tatsumi finds himself in a city filled with corruption, blah blah. You know what happens. Well, you also know the main point of Episode one. Tatusmi's friends are horrifically tortured and murdered and he joins Night Raid. When Tatsumi first finds out, he is stricken with grief and anger.
He kills the killer of his friends. Seconds later, he's basically forgotten about it, with no signs of depression. Like, he didn't really care all that much.
In later Episodes, Tatsumi mourns, but the fact that it went from a depressing scene seamlessly to "HAHAHA LOL, DEATH HAPPENS, YOU'RE IN NIGHT RAID LOL,"really ruined the mood. Then we get signs that main characters are going to die with the death of Scissors Girl, and slowly everyone else dies but again there's lack of sensitivity. Their backstories are shallowly explained and I feel like no one should have really developed any sense of attachment to the characters with the tone set.
Good points: Akame's story is different, I really think she's what made the anime good, because she never really went out of mood, aside from her eating habits (which was pretty cool). She brought a sense of reality in the anime but everyone else just seemed to "lol," everything. This was incredibly short, because I don't really feel like getting into a heavy explanation (sorry, I got homework to worry about) but I hope you catch the general gist of the point I have set. Conclusively, I think they should have made the anime longer, with more time to develop a sense of existence for the characters.

@Topic: I can't name anything too sad. I guess I'd say Code Geass.

Its not sad to me. Its a good show. But that's it. Its just good. When a character dies, I was like ._. ... They didn't really connect. But its just my opinion, I still enjoy it and its not annoying.
The saddest anime I watched so far is Neon Genesis Evangelion. With the main characters' sad back stories and their psychological issues. I found it sad and yet so real and relatable. If I went into detail on why its so sad, it would be full of spoilers.

I'm lame, so I'm gonna chose the animes known for being sad, but I think HunterxHunter was really really sad. It started out so cute and adorable with Gon and his fishing pole and Kurapika being so calm, but no. This show lied to me how could you make twelve year olds go through this madness I cried they're tiny kids. I'm not even done my friends say it gets worse. I don't think I'll be able to handle it once I get there.

I might have forgotten some, but this is an ordered list for me (Phantom and Angel Beats tying I think).
Phantom: Requiem for the Phantom - I think this anime had the most feels at the ending for me. It wasn't entirely sad, just the ending where something major occurred and the song in the video started playing :
Angel Beats - I'm not sure how many times I cried (eyes just getting watery, you know), but I know for sure I did.
Death Parade - it isn't super duper sad, but it has its moments ;~;
Naruto Shippuden - Hinata vs Pain. Obviously, if you stay up to date with the anime, you know who'd win. I thought "you know who" died when they went up in the air and yeah '>.<)/
