WHACK-ASS LIST OF MEDIA I'VE CRIED TO:
where the red fern grows (old dan--you know the scene, i was 10) (the only book i've ever cried reading)
fuyunohanashi from the BL anime given (during the scream/cry part) (the only song i have ever cried listening to)
spider-man into the spider-verse (uncle aaron)
spider-man across the spider-verse (peter b betraying miles) (the only movies i've ever cried watching)
i do not engage with a lot of emotional media, since i don't like interacting with media that makes me upset, and therefore i remember every song, movie, and book i have ever cried to and it's the most whack ass list imaginable so i need to share it with everyone.
there has been other media where my eyes welled up but this is the only media i had genuine tears dripping down my face. into the spiderverse included dry-heaving as well and i think that's the most emotional i've ever been with any piece of media ever
#yes i know i'm fucking weird#and let me tell you i have seen more emotional things than these#like i've read books and seen movies that people frequently cry to#1) titanic 2) all quiet on the western front (book) 3) flowers for algernon 4) dead poet's society 5) the iron giant#etc etc#like i do see sad media i just don't cry to it#so this is the only media i've ever cried to#where the red fern grows#fuyu no hanashi#given#across the spiderverse#into the spider verse
