All time anime moment #1: Elenore’s sacrifice, and confession.

Wounded terminally, she tries to save the girl she loves the most, and loses her life over it. I cried at this like no other show before, and not after - a truly stunning moment that sticks with you forever.

#2: Speak Like A Child

When Faye Valentine gets a package with a video tape, she and her friends want to know what’s on it. Faye finds it is a message she recorded for herself, when she was 10 years old - to her future self. A very sad, touching, inspirational and moving moment in anime history - it made me cry.

The Tachikomas disregard a direct order from the Major, to intercept a nuclear missile that is targeted for Dejima, and to end a rebellion.
