i have a lot of manga that i want to read and anime that i want to watch but im afraid to start. (i know how stupid that sounds Lol)
For example i saw the show "Voltron Legendary Defender" on Netflix.(if you never heard of it then you probably wont know what im talking about) it was good there were funny moments, moments when i held back tears and words that inspired me to accomplish something
In the final moments Alora sacrificed her life and voltron left the world and the galaxy because there were no more bad guys to fights, the universe was safe. On the last episode it showed a time-lapse were the characters grew up,still helping the universe or just settling down and getting married. when i finished it the impact of the ending never really hit me untill i started remembering what i just saw, and then.... I started CRYING ( like in the shower, on the floor crying LOL). After that i couldnt even read or watch any anime because the show left a huge hole in my chest. I knew i wouldnt be there on there next adventure, i wouldnt be there when they cry or laugh or just share a beautiful moment.
So whenever i want to see an interesting manga like "Berserk" or "Vagabond" i want to read it, but i start remember Voltron and the sadness i felt when it ended and those just start flooding back.
I know that there not real and im probably overreacting but the emotions i felt watching them were real
If you ever felt this way and you overcame your fear what should I do? I wanna take that leap forward but im afraid to jump
well this isnt really advice but more of a reassurance bc ive felt something very similar to that
in my experience, after reading and watching mdzs, i just felt BROKEN. ofc i know everything is fiction but that doesnt mean that the emotions i felt during and after it ended werent real
now, even after a year, i cant bring myself to reread or rewatch it bc i dont think i can handle the emotional rollercoaster and the empty feeling afterwards when i finish it again
BUT. despite all of the feels, i do not regret reading it at all. so for me it all comes down to this: id rather read something and be able to think back upon how good it was (despite the sad slump that inevitably follows the end of any good read) than not read it at all
side note: i went to your profile page —sorry if that sounds creepy lol—and boy i couldnt relate more. my want to read list is literally growing by the day (400+?) and im also kind of chickening out on a lot of them tbh

Thanks for this. im happy that im not alone when it comes to feeling like crap after reading something amazing I feel a little bit more reassured and confidant enough to read something new
