Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann.
When I was 13, I had a best friend who died for reasons I won't explain here. We were each others "Aniki". We were both really close and when I lost him, my entire world was destroyed. I huge gaping hole was left in my soul and I felt like I would never recover. And for a long time, I didnt.
A few months after his death, a friend introduced me to TTGL. I watched the first 3 episodes and saw no reason to continue. So, I spent the next 3 years still mourning the loss of my Aniki. Even though I had pretty much returned to normal a couple of months after his death, I still felt like just the thought of him would make me weep, and it usually did. I missed him so much and i knew no matter what i did, i wouldnt be able to bring him back. But, I digress. I don't know what exactly compelled me to do it, but a few years later, (actually last month), I had the urge to see TTGL and finish it through to the end. And I'm glad I did. After I finished that anime, I was able to reconcile with myself and see that my best friend, my Aniki, wouldnt want me to be so sad after all these years. He'd want me to remember the good times we had and carry on being myself and making myself a better person. I don't know if you've seen Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann, but if you haven't, watch it, and you'll know what i mean.
