2well this is just my opinin if you have a different tell me ,this are just a couple of animes ,i have not seen yet ,love hina ,oh my goodness,ranma,cowboy bebop and more ,thanks again for your participation.

Oh so you want me to post the animes that I think had a happy ending but is was bad or something like that.............Well if I were to post the endings of the anime endings to tell you the truth I've seen many animes but never really seen the endings or at lease remember them......yes very sad................

Bueno Kuclo ya veo que tienes un gran curriculum como Otaku, el mio nop es tan extenso pero que se le va a hacer :\ , respecto a tu thread, yo pienso que debemos aceptar el final que el creador de la serie elija, pues esta fue creada segun sus espectativas para la serie y no segun las nuestras, es su obra y debemos de respetar lo que el decida hacer con ella, bueno esa es mi humilde opinion , espero que no haya problema por escribir en espanol y si borran mi opinion pues me da igual pues para entonces ya la habras leido y ese era mi objetivo ciao. ;)

La verdad es que no he llegado a ver muchas series de anime enteras, pero sí la de X de las Clamp, y dejame decirte que (al menos, esta es mi opinion) la serie ni tiene un final feliz (por lo menos no tan feliz como podria llegar a ser), ni un final bueno. Espero que si las Clamp terminan el manga (algun año de estos), el que muera sea Fuma y no Kamui. Repito que esta es mi opinion, asi que nadie se enfade.

Personally i hate endings where the charactors are worse off then when they started - otherwise, what was the point of all that effort? I have only seen about a third of the anime you have listed, but i don't think it is right to say good or happy. Take Elfen Lied (one of my fav) for example, i really liked the ending to ep 13* - it would be a very sad world if everyone could not find some measure of peace.

* and there is still ep 14 to go...

ESTE tread ESTA bueno , SI coinsido contigo EN LA mayoria DE LOS finales, PERO YO CREO Q LOS mejores finales SON LOS felices Y buenos XD , EL DE elfen LIED ES UNO DE LOS mejores Q VI (pero DEBE DE haber OVAS iiiiiii) bueno ESA ES MI opinion YO CREO Q SON mejores LOS buenos finales POR MAS tristes Q sean, TE hacen reflexionar Y pensar Y PAR AESO sirve EL anime aparte DE entretener

Do members of Hispanime just randomly go to threads and post in Spanish/Mexican? :sweat:
Anyways, I do like good endings. They don't necessarily have to be all happy, as long as they're satisfying (like FMA, Kannaduki no Miko, etc). I just don't like it when they conclude a serie w/o a real conclusion. I rather take a sad ending then no ending at all.

Actually I find it quite funny - lol, but I somewhat know how they feel when people try speaking fluently in two different kinds of languages, since I've been around with many similar people like that before- it gets hard for them at times, so they post in the language they feel more comfortable with. lol

I have no clue about anime since I don't watch it at all, but that's quite a list you have over there. Impressive, kuclo. **Applauds** lol

Worse off as in 'Shingetsutan Tsukihime' worse off, or as in a character's evolution as such throughout the series? I, personally, didn't enjoy Tsukihime's ending, but I liked the series overall. In the case of Elfen Lied... Well, it's not really over yet ^^;

Yeah, I think the same way. It's just funny how people kinda talk past eachother when this happens :D

Hi man!

Well I will ignore what dutchforce was trying to say!

And I have to say that what Celessa-san said impress me! it's hard to me to belive tht here at MT there are members that actually don't watch anime, just Im' amaze (sory if I'm rude in any way but it's my POV and I'm just impress!)

Well i think I get your point but I won't exactly going to mention any specific anime ending, but lemme tell that the creativity in endings it's very wide and variant, I liek in some ay the happy endings, but I enjoy the sad endings too, I cannot say an ending it's bad or good until I saw the serie all over again!! Unfortunately with the most o them I cannot do that!

Well took Evenagelion as example I saw the whole serie twice and I think i know why they made two endings (if you rembmer there are two), they tried to made the happy and the real ending, just to giving to it a lil diferent direction to the script! and both endings are nice!

If you feel it good, bad, happy or anything else it's more like your Poont Of View and at the end that's what counts! you can have a common opinion about an ending but that's just that everyvody feel like that, 'cause if the authors try to force a good ending or a happy one not always they get a good result!

But I personally enjoy a lot the happy and sad ending which ever I see!
*Spanish Spam*
Creo que lo que dije fue algo confuso pero la verdad es que no me gusta catalogar las cosas y menos me gusta criticar algo sin haberlo analizado, con tan solo verlo una vez no me basta para generar un opinion, que claor como amante del anime casi todo lo veo bien!! XP

Thanx for these interesting topic!! ^_^
P.S: Nice listing you gotta show me the other animes!! XP

Quote by blueotaku-spHi man!Well I will ignore what dutchforce was trying to say!

I wasn't trying to insult anyone, I was just commenting on the fact that there were random Spanish posts in between the English ones and that it was weird to read it that way (it's like seeing a bunny talk with a elephant) :D

I prefer good over happy endings. Alot of excellent anime have been ruined by happy endings where the world gets reset and everyone is alive and happy. They should not have been afraid to kill off some characters.

Now dutchforce made it clear! yeah, it's a spanish post incrusted in the english...:D
funny...:D
but well...
I've seen HALF OF THE HALF OF THE HALF endings you told. I've seen:
Sailor Moon (but don't remember, was very young)
Dragon Ball, Dragon Ball Z, they're both happy endings
Saint Seiya (series): happy
I've seen InuYasha over 2 years, and i made it through episode 158!And the series ends at the 167!!!AH!!!
yeah kuclo, what an otaku...
Gundam Wing :D it's a good ending, since gundams were destroyed, but happy??don't you want to see our heroes destroying evil forces again??(we jsut have to be sure at wich side they fight for :D)Is evil really disbanded?It goes on...
well, sorry 4 my bad english in this post... excuse: it's 1:15 AM:D...
lemme see...another end...nope, don't remember
see ya!

sorry I posted twice :D

I think good endings are way better. And if there is a sequel, then there should be a happy ending.

Interesting topic... and potentially full of spoilers!

Personally, I don't mind whether a series has a happy or a sad ending, as long as it's good and it goes along with the flow of the series. I really hate the typical soap opera where the main character has to go through all sort of crap through the entire series, and magically, gets a happy ending. Unless we're talking about a wizardry story, magic happy endings just don't cut it for me. And sappy sappy stories where at the end just everything blows up and everybody dies (yep, there is a book like that) aren't my thing either.

Some endings I really liked:

Escaflowne
Lain
Fruits Basket (they did a great job even though the manga had not finished yet)
Ayashi no Ceres
Elfen Lied
X/TV
Samurai Champloo
Scrapped Princess
Angelic Layer
Chobits
Magic Knight Rayearth
Card Captor Sakura
Hikaru no Go (in my opinion, it ended at a much better place in the anime than in the manga)

Some endings I hated (mainly because they didn't provide quite the closure required)

Evangelion (although the movie did provide a closure!)
Inuyasha
Karekano
Konomini

As you can see, I usually like clamp endings, and hate gainax endings.

Sorry, that was not clear. Say for example a series ends with everyone dieing - that is "worse off", but if amid the distruction there is a glimmer of hope then that is a good ending (like the ending to mononoke). I guess i don't like to think that doom is fate. Sorry it that does not make much sence.

well i prefer the good endings with a bit of happy but i hate the inconclusal enndings and sorry for my english :nya: :nya: :nya: :nya: :nya: :nya: :nya: :nya: :nya: :nya: :nya: :nya: :nya: :nya: i say again i love this smilie :D :D :nya: :nya: :nya: :nya: i'ts really funny


member of :[ecchi-club] [KittyCats]

...i would list them...but i don't have too much time to type all of the anime that i have seen

I think that the endings must be good, no matter if they are happy or sad, like for example the ending of Cowboy Bebop, sad but good ending or Kimi Ga, sad story, happy and good ending; and I hate the bad endings when they don't explain very well the ending, like Kare Kano, and you figure out what happens next.
