Doesnt matter what genre. Doesn't matter if it in this site or known work. Doesn't matter if it has bad ending or horrible tragedy.

Ehm, i think it would be better especially if it has bad ending and tragedy. Whatever you think is emotionally affecting.

I want to FEEL something.

In the recent year something bad happen to me and family. But i barely feel anything after beig hurt and saddened to that degree.

I never really read that type of things because I want to feel good, but I once stumbled upon 'Death is the only ending for a villainess' and it has destroyed me in so many ways

A Regressor’s Tale of Cultivation.

A time loop style novel, but a surprising amount of emotional depth for a wuxia/xianxia (but it’s Korean). MC has to deal with hopelessness, the tragedy of losing loved ones, and then seeing them again etc.

Necroepilogos, Magical Girl Mechanical Heart, and Nexus Alpha. Not sure if all of them are on SH, if not then RR.

You could try my vampire story. The MC wakes up after a nap and discovers her world is destroyed.

Try reading this manga, My Fiancé is in Love with My Little Sister, which made me rage. I don't know if raging is what you had in mind, but try it if you want. It's on MangaDex.

Well, you can try my work. It's not ended, but there're a couple of emotional chapters out already.

I have cried when reading every one of the SciADV VN’s. First is horror/thriller, second is tragedy, third is dramatic, fourth is thriller/horror, fifth is dealing with the aftermath of a tragedy, and sixth is trying to create a path forwards. You should watch/play in release order, and the only good anime version is the Steins;Gate ones.

Currently if you wish to buy all the games on steam, it will cost ~$110 usd. If you were to buy it past the 20th it will cost ~$300+ usd.

If you don’t have the money for them, there are playthroughs/letsplays in English for every mainline game on YT. Just make sure to find one with music. I will get you a playlist of one for ChäoS;HEAd NoAH.

Aside from sad/tragic stories, well, I guess it matters what you mean by emotional.

If a story partially centered around a three-person relationship with lots of uplifting moments and found family building such as a girl's fifteenth birthday party with her adoptive family (she'd been orphaned at eight and adopted at 14) works, then my story might be for you. She's a fan favorite, a lot of my readers are very vocal about loving the relatively few chapters from her PoV. (side note: introduced toward the end of volume 2)

It's not without conflict and danger, but the broad trend is positive emotions. I think most of my reader base would want to kill me if I ended with a tragic note after everything that has happened. Given that one of said readers is my wife and the look she just gave me when I mentioned that idea, my life might be in actual danger if I went that route. :ROFLMAO:

I have a novel called, Reincarnated into a failed marriage. It does have romance but in a very slow way as the mc is hated at first and the wifes hates the mc.

What you can expect is;
- Good Pacing
- Immediate threat
- Immediate goals for Aric
- A self aware system that has real personality
- Learning how to navigate the world in a shitty body with amnesia.
- Learning how to use magic to solve the crimes of said body
- Redeeming himself
- Clear power usage and restriction

You can try Azure Night. Around 58k words.

One question to carry with you, is what are you will to do to achieve your desire to save one person? Are you willing to damn your soul, to take on the hatred of the world?

Azure Night is a story where it continuously becomes more intense. Even through the happier times, you will feel the weight of the tragedy.

The maiden crashing into him from the side, breaking his guard. Armand sliding back on his feet, sternly looking above.

The young woman immediately descending, raining down azure fire on the battlefield, wrapping him in her hellish flames. The leader slicing through it, unleashing a great wave, quelling the fire.

"The heart truly is a fragile thing. Someone like you, who was just a blade, even you can be made to bend to irrationality. I've given up much, I've done things I loathe, yet here you come selfishly trying to take away our hope." Shaking his head in refusal.

"That's right, hate me. Blame everything on me, let me bear the weight of sins." Her soft voice, floating on her side from afar.

"Why? Why go this far? Even when you lost everything, even when the world turned its back on you. Even when it is hopeless, what drives you to keep going?" his confusion at her.

"A single flower that brought life into my hollow world. Even if the chance is minuscule at best, it is worth pursuing. Damn me if you must, scorn my name to the ends of eternity. I will accept it all, and give her a world she can live in, a world she can be happy in." Isa folding her arms, her gentle vision to him.

Those purely flowing sentiments, Seres and Cyra feeling the demon's true emotions. An individual willing to become an enemy, pursuing the slimmest chance for a new tomorrow.

"Emotions versus reason, so long as the two clashes there will eternally be conflict. Forgive me Isa, but I must go through with my direction." Armand lowering his stance.

"And I as well must see my path through to its conclusion, may everyone forever curse my name. If it is for her safety and happiness, I will do it all over again." Her calm voice.
