Dark/Melancholy Anime Artwork

Wherein we muse upon the less-savory side of life.

I'd thought about posting this in the NSFW section, but I decided against it. Simply because the discussion here might strike a bit close to home, and the art itself might get a tad graphic. If you're ever in doubt, it's best you put it in spoilers.

Gods, I really need a hug.

I don't have a lot of sad anime pictures or at least, I don't remember saving them.
Although, there are some pictures that make me feel a bit down.

This one for example isn't sad at all but the style reminds me of internet forums back in 2008. This and, I guess, blingee are pretty nostalgic.

Really off topic but I've always liked skies that are like this. When I still lived close to the sea I usually go to the beach at night, watch the pitch black sea and sky as I listen to some touhou music. The city behind me was quite bright though so nothing as impressive as in this picture.

I should go back and watch darker than black again.

This one was my first pfp ever on the internet. I was 9 or 10 back then and still using yahoo messenger. I was still 5 years away from being able to read and understand words that are in this picture. I just copied someone else's pfp. Couldn't even make it out what it was on my 800x600 screen and yahoo's tiny avatar popup window.
Obviously, I didn't think much of it and haven't been keeping this picture. It was by pure accident that I saw it again in an old thread on a vietnamese tech support forum.

There are quite a lot of these but I mean, me feeling nostalgic is hardly sad for anyone else hahaha.

I know this isn't spot-on persay, but I think for some of us the emotion it'll emit from us fits.

You remind me of these dark memories when Lucia experienced the most tragic era in history, there's plenty of it that fits. I'll show some examples from the first half of the war, the more suspenseful side:

Nothing to be sorry about, the purpose of the thread is for that. Just bothered me more than I thought it would. 🙁
