One Piece - Everyone seems to have some sort of tear jerking past.
Umineko no Naku Koro ni - Hasn't been in the anime yet, but Rosa's and Maria's past, as well as Ange's past were greatly interesting.
Pandora Hearts - Just because I can't think of anything else.
edit: Blood+
edit2:Kino no Tabi - Duh, how could I forget this one >.<

Bernkastel's name gives away her extensive past the second you see her; you don't need to get anywhere in the VN to know that . . .

Edit: Sorry, completely forgot that 99% of the fans of When They Cry

That and the fact that Hana used to be manwhore and the whole Miyuki stabbing her father thing and you have a pretty epic backstory for a bunch of homeless people __________________ Signature made by Kenikki.
