well lately i've been listening to allot of sad songs, and i decided to make a topic for everyone to share sad music they like. post a few soundtracks and explain why it hits you in the feels, and why you love it so much.
this is Kanashiki Kako, or otherwise known as, Past Story. just hits you in the feels every time. i also recently learned to play that on piano, so i played it for my family one day, and they all cried. i kinda felt bad after that.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EFREIl9Ypwsanyway here's a few more sad ones that just... ugh they hit my feelz. it's worse if you know what's going on as their playing
this is Inishie no Mahou. that opening gets me every time
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RpnRhiInopAthis is called Shukumei. when the beat drops near the end i just get shivers
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KjlTmJQsceYthis is Takanashi Yasuharu, otherwise known as Mirajane's theme. i played this on harp, while my friend played the recorder, and my whole class sang it for remembrance day
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tjuWtuU3h7Mthis is Kizuna. oh my gosh, this beat drop in this one, it just... brings a tear to my eye every time, no joke.
:Acnologia, that black dragon of apocalypse is attacking everyone on Tenroujima island.
Makarov: *uses his last bit of magic to grow 100x his size to hold off Acnologia long enough for everyone else to escape*
everyone says they don't want to leave, that they want to stay with him
Makarov: "you're going to ignore an old man's final wishes? you dumb brats!"
everyone finally gives in and starts running away, crying and begging for him to be ok
Makarov: "that's right... run away, protect yourselves. are you sad because someone's gonna die? has saddness ever killed someone? these are answers you will find later in life... my amazing children, full of pride... live on! into the future!":
imagine that scene with this music T^T
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RqxmFkmEoZQthis one... oh boy this one. the Fairy Tail main theme, slow version. this plays at the most iconic, most sad, most depressing, most tear jerking, most inspirational, and most important moments ever in the show. it's used just enough times to leave a mark on you, yet not enough times to grow old. that's the true power of this music.
:Acnologia, the black dragon of apocalypse. nothing can defeat it, only the black mage Zeref. Acnologia is about to completely annihilate the island of Tenroujima, where all of Fairy Tail is. with everyone weak and exhausted, they have no way of fighting back.
Mirajane: "everyone, hold hands. we may not have any magic left to fight, but the strength of our friendship is stronger then any dragon"
Laxus: *smiles and reaches a hand out to his grandfather*
Makarov: *crying and takes his hand* "that's right... lets all go home together"
*everyone takes each others hand and stands in a circle*
Everyone: "lets go home... to FAIRY TAIL!"
Acnologia: *shoots a huge beam of energy at the island, destroying it completely*
7 years pass with no sign of anyone who was on Tenroujima island:
imagine that music playing at the scene T^T
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Loi4bYzXvAwthis is Tenshi no Kunou. when the vocals come in i start tearing up
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RQ7na7QfvZYthis is Carla no Kokuhaku. it's the theme of the white cat in the picture, Carla. she has the power to see into the future, but she didn't know this. so when she was born, she saw tiny fragments of the future. she didn't understand what it was, so she assumed the queen put orders inside her brain before she was born to kill the girl known as Wendy. Wendy just so happened to be the girl to find Carla's egg before she was born (yes the cat hatched from an egg) Carla didn't want to kill anyone, so she tried to leave, but Wendy stopped her, saying there's no reason to leave because their friends. Wendy and Carla soon became best friends. but Carla had to live her whole life thinking she was supposed to kill her one and only friend who she loved dearly. she found out years later it was just her seeing into the future. this story touches me deeply.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5qDiIpcUPdkand last but not least we have Seigi no Chikara. this one hits me deep cause it plays at the moment shown in the pic on the vid. my favorite character, Wendy Marvell, finds out her entire life she lived was a lie. she was abandoned at birth, and raised by a dragon. but her dragon disappeared one day. so she already lost what she saw as her mother. then she was taken in by a traveler, who she also lost. then she was taken in by a foster family. then years later she finds out all her family and friends were never real, they were illusions. she loses everything she has ever known, and her guild mark is slowly fading away. she pleads and begs for it all to be fake and for everything to go back to how it was. all she wanted was someone who cared about her. but for 12 years (yes Wendy is only 12 years old), she never got it. until Erza, another character said these exact words "moving on doesn't mean you forget things, it just means you accept what happened and continue living. bury the pain of losing your loved ones... if the arms of your friends. come, to Fairy Tail"
a truly heartbreaking scene, with a truly heartwarming ending.
