Maybe you should just set aside those kinds of shows for when you're in the mood to feel emotional. I think it would be better than cutting them out altogether.
It's weird. I'm never truly in the mood to feel overly emotional, but I absolutely relish how I feel after I watch an anime that makes me feel emotional. I'll never cut them out because I think they are some of the better shows I've watched.
Let me put into context why I even posted that. Typically shows that make me feel like crap after watching them are shows like Shigatsu wa Kimi no Uso. They have a beautiful story, great characters, and make me feel very strong emotions when it all comes to an end. However, this time the show is Kuzu no Honkai and it left me feeling completely disgusted. I felt very despondent after watching it because I hated the story, I didn't like any of the characters, and I couldn't relate to anything at all. It's not the sad happy feeling I typically get after watching an anime that makes me feel very strong emotions. It's almost an alien like feeling because I've never had an anime end where I felt disgusted with what I had just watched.Â
I hope that helps explain my reasoning behind what I said. I won't stop watching them, but I feel like I should stop watching them because of this alien like feeling that I'm finding hard to grasp.
