Was there ever an ending to an anime series you like that you wish was better?

what comes to mind for me was the ending to princess tutu..
It was just one of those cases where I wish ALL of the characters had a happy ending. Not saying it was depressing but I was sad to see ahiru still a duck and not finding love.

also, inb4 digimon.
 
Blue Gender!!!!

The story had a neat progression and a very compelling story.

The last episode just ended with a complete OMGWTFBBQZ ending. It was so detatched from the story and so weird that it felt like an intentional troll.

I wasn't a fan of the way YYH ended either, although I fully admit it wasn't terrible.

Gundam 00 is a recent one that had a amazingly horrid ending. I mean it ended with the Gundam version of a Care Bear Steer out of no where. How does it get worse then that ? At least in Char's Revenge when something kinda similar happened, there was a compelling reason why. In Gundam 00, people they were fighting to the death against 5 minutes ago magically united without a compelling reason.
 
Rockman EXE

The show had five seasons and the final season "Beast+" ended it horribly. Yay Netto and Rockman defeat Cache! .....That's it? Oh no wait Mayl jumps and hugs Netto for the fifth billion time. And what about Forte? What about Alpha? Those two could of made a good last 26 episode season worth to finish the series off.

It's sad because the writers ditched EXE for Star Force which got canned on it's second season.
 
Bad endings and shows ending with cliff hangers never really bothered me. However, Trinity Blood does come to mind though.

To have such a battle between Cain and Abel come to an end where you don't know who the victor was, not to mention it goes off with Abel saying something about the battle not being over..

Yeah, that had me like "what...?" But I do understand why it ended the way it did seeing how the creator passed before he/she could finish it. (R.I.P.)
 
I haven't gotten my last manga volume yet or the rest of the light novels, but but I think the anime is on it's own tangent. The whole thing was a mish-mash of the different stories. They had a lot to work with that they left out (GUN METAL HOUND, anyone? ).

It is sad that we lost Sunao Yoshida. I really liked his style.

I disliked Ninja Scroll's ending...

I didn't want Kagero to die!
 
LOL oh wow really? I wondered what the heck happened to that show. They only aired like what? 3 episodes on cartoon network and that was it..

also imo, the whole megaeman.exe anime in general was terrible... Pick up the manga and you won't be disappointed.
 
I didn't like the way The Mysterious Cities of Gold ended. Esteban, an orphan, traveled from Spain all the way to South America searching for his father, but the "reunion" doesn't occur until the final episode, and there, Esteban doesn't even know it's his father, but his father recognizes him, and in his disguise he tells Esteban that he neeRAB to "find [his] own star". To add insult to injury, the final episode actually enRAB with Esteban, Zia, and Tao continuing their journey to find the "other Cities of Gold". What I don't like about this ending other than being a set up for a "second season" that never came is the fact, that Esteban had reunited with his father, but now he'll be living the rest of his life never knowing it. An orphan traveled halfway around the world finding a missing relative, only for the missing relative to essentially blow him/her off? Nuts to that, 16th century or not.

Well, anyway, it was an ending I certainly didn't expect.
 
LOL WUT??????


I disagree my Friend..Toryama's origional Ending in Z was just fine. I left space for the Franchise to continue at a later point (As seen in the Recent Special Son Goku & FrienRAB Return.)


For me Im Gonna Say the Ending the the Strawberry 100% manga...That was just....Sad. not as in boo hoo sad..but man thats lame sad.

Anime wise...I was Dissapointed by the way the Kenshin anime ended...I mean the whole last season was nothing but filler, thats why I only acknowledge the 1st 2 seaons..& Only the manga ending.
 
More like inb4Gundam Seed Destiny.

Mai-Hime's ending was just so darn lackluster compared to the rest of the awesome series. I mean, it's like
they go through all that crap, we get tons of character development, the story is as dark as it can be....and then everybody's back to life and things are normal again. It's like the whole battle didn't even happen
Also, Rurouni Kenshin and Inuyasha. These are self-explanatory.
 
Saying the original InuYasha would be correct, but with the new series wrapping things up, you can't really say that... I guess?

I think I liked most of the anime endings I've watched...? I mean, I know the Ranma anime had a bad ending, but I haven't seen all of it...
 
Big O
Eureka Seven (though I didn't like the series in general)
Fate/Stay Night
Final Fantasy Unlimited
InuYasha
Kenshin
Paranoid Agent
Scryed
Trinity Blood (but again, didn't like the series in general)
Witch Hunter Robin (believe it or not, I saw the ending without falling asleep)
Wolf's Rain

... I want to say Evangelion too... but maybe not.
It wasn't a bad ending.
It was just... wth.
 
Fullmetal Alchemist.

Seriously?
Alternate worlRAB? Sloth is their mom? Totally abandoned all the comedy and spirit of the first half of the show?

Soul Eater.

THEY BEAT THE BAD GUY THROUGH FRIENRABHIP!?
 
Well, if you wont say it, I will.

It's not that it was a total mind frack or that the studio clearly ran out of money... It's that it didn't address any of the ideas brought up in the show. There wasn't even so much as a nod to what the hell the angels even were, why they exsisted or what the hell the Eva was doing eating one of them which might have been nice to get a hint at...

But no, all we get is this bizare badly animated acid trip about how Shinji is a gay emo kid... But we already knew that, we didn't need two horrible episodes to hammer it home.

So yeah, Evangelion, bad ending and End of Eva still didn't address any of the plot that I'd have liked wrapped up, it was just a better animated version of the ending I didn't like anyway.
 
No anime finale has annoyed me like Our Digital World, the last episode of Digimon 02.

Seriously, that finale was just plain wrong in so many ways.
