Top Ten Saddest and Most Tragic Anime Couples
These were the couples that sadly didn't end up together because of death or other circumstances. Where tragedy replaced the love that the couples should have had. Warning! There will be spoilers!
It's been over a year since I seen your lie in april but it still makes me cry just to think about the ending. I knew what was coming for kaori but I still hoped that somehow she would survive and that her and kousei would end up together. I just refuse to believe that kaori died. I've wrote a manmade alternate ending to your lie in april about if kaori survived the surgery. I got to love kaori so much and when she died it was like losing someone in real life. Your lie in april was the best anime I ever seen, and no doubt the saddest ðŸ˜
That last episode was so devastating to watch. These two should have been together but cruel reality took over instead. Which ended up with Kaori dying and Kousei not being with the girl he always wanted.
I cried. I don't even think Kaori knows that Kousei liked her back and that just makes things even more depressing
I can't tell how much I cried. Kousei and kaori are the best and will ship them till I die

These two loved each other but Julia was with Vicious. They decided to run away together as starcrossed lovers but Vicious got the better of them. It was so sad seeing all the effort they put into being together be completely destroyed.

Yui spent her life confided in a wheelchair and was forced to have her mother do everything for her. In purgatory, she was free to do whatever she wanted. But the one thing she wanted most was to be married and Hinata promised to marry her. Sadly though, Yui has fulfilled her final wish in purgatory and has no reason to stay. Leaving Hinata behind.
Sometimes, just to torture myself, I look up that really sad scene from episode 10 and cry my eyes out.

Hige and Blue were such a cute couple. When they reunited, you could tell how happy they were to see each other. But in the end, it wasn't meant to be. Blue and Hige die side by side together in the finale of the anime.

These two wanted to be married together but a horrible icident scarred Kana for life. So Hatori removed her memories and watches Kana from afar instead.

Well Lelouch unintetionally uses his Geass powers to possess Euphemia. She orders her people to kill the Japanese on a crazy massacre spree and Lelouch is forced to kill her. Suzaku does everything in his power to try and save her but she dies.

Damn you Creed! Train and Saya were heading on the right track together but you had to ruin it all!

Lucy's life has been nothing but a nightmare. She grew up in an orphanage, was bullied, the first person who ever trusted her betrayed her, saw the puppy she loved die and Kouta fell in love with his cousin. Kouta was the only person who ever saw any good in her and didn't want her dead just because she was a diclonius. But they couldn't be together.
This is why Yuka isn't loved in the Elfen Lied community. Kouta and Lucy should have been together!

Gainax endings can be the worse. Simon and Nia were just about to get married and then she disappears...

These two were just startig off a family. With a daughter named Yui and a son named Ame. They were a happy couple despite the fact that one of them could change into a wolf. But Wolf Man died trying to feed his mate and children. Leaving a poor Hana heartbroken and tying to figure out how to raise Wolf Children.

The reason why I believe they are one of the saddest couples is because of the fact that the reason why Zeref killed Mavis was because he had loved her so much that it had killed her. Because of his curse, their own shared curse he had killed her. Considering he spent 300 years (then) wanting to die and finally he met someone he loved and he thought that if at least they could be together everything would be alright. He had killed her. In the end even Mavis couldn't hate him because they loved each other so much. It's heartbreaking because he had killed her just because he loved her.
The moment they promise to Ben together zeref kills Mavis, it's really sad.


It's so sad! Maes loved his wife more than anything. Well, maybe except for his daughter. And then... Oh gosh. I cried so much.

That Jellal! Why'd he lie! Everyone's unhappy, me, you guys, Erza and even himself!
I love them!
My favorite couple of all time.

Truly most saddest anime couple. Gin left Soul Society to spy on Aizen who was the top villain. He wanted to be Shinigami to protect Rangiku. It was heartbreaking when Rangiku saw Gin lying dead on the ground when he was killed by Aizen. She flew towards Gin and cried. T_T
Rin was everything to Obito, and she got killed by his most trusted friend.
Not exactly the cutest because I find Rin a little annoying for her crush on Kakashi, but a good ship
This isn't canon (yet). But their story is just so tragic. Please make them canon already Mitsuba already suffered enough

Such a beautiful and yet so, so sad, couple. Spoiler Alert, but since they had to get Kurisu back to the time to where she has died, Okabe tells her boldly that he loves her and the two share (what I think) is anime's most heartfelt kiss...aw. Such a romantic and depressing pair. To say goodbye to each other for good (or maybe not for good) by kissing on the lips at least four times I think? Meh, who cares? They kissed WHO!
These two are so emotionally beautiful. They had to send Kurisu back to the day of when she was killed, and to say goodbye to each other, they ending up having multiple "goodbye, I love you" kisses. Making it anime's most heartfelt kiss. AWWW...
Sad!? But how? They are more like annoying
