Banana Fish is another pretty obvious choice.
My ultimate curl up and cry anime though is the 2019 Fruits Basket reboot. Very poignant and will deal you damage over time.
Violet Evergarden. I watched this anime on netflix and cried every episode. every f episode. Then I cried like a baby at the movie too. I still can't get over it.
OH OH another one is "Kotaro lives alone" - you can also see it on netflix. He is a little boy. Living alone. Go ahead and cry with me.
I stopped watching the anime when Jiraiya died. I couldn't bear it.

Just remembered that Akatsuki no Yona has some really "curl up and cry" moments. It's such a shame the anime only got one season and a couple of specials...
The manga is so good too!

I feel like the classics are Angel Beats, Ano Hana, also more recently Your Lie in April. Violet Evergarden was really good but I don't think I was ~as~ choked up as some of the other things I've watched. Your Name of course was amazing - I also recommend Boy and the Beast. Not like tragic emotional but just idk... growing up and living life emotional?
Personally, I can't stand Clannad. Hated it and all the characters. Felt the same way about Koe no Katachi - again, disliked all the characters and didn't think any of them were worthy of salvation/a good end lol.

@(you need an account to see links) I have a large personal bias against the stereotypical "ditzy/useless/overly genki but still useless" heroines, if they're super clumsy and idiotic but everyone finds them endearing because they're so cute and silly, chances are I hate them. 😂 These types of characters just drive me insane and really rub me the wrong way because I find them so annoying lol. So it's very difficult to watch series with that stereotype, and I feel a lot of series shoujo or otherwise from around that time had them in spades. I didn't really care for any of the side characters either and the main guy (Tomoyo? maybe that was his name, blue haired guy) suffered from "oh I'm so average and just a normal guy but all these girls are dying to date me" which makes me just 🥴🥴 lol! (yes that means I dislike pretty much a huge slice of series since that was quite a popular trope/set up for harem anime and such xD)

Fair enough! I think I have a soft spot for Clannad since it was my first slice of life. I defs agree about the side characters not being super interesting. I enjoyed watching the character development for Tomoya & Nagisa's relationship, and l really liked Nagisa's parents with the Bakery store haha
