Anime that should have ended earlier according to otakus

There is no doubt that the topic of “when an anime should end or when it should continue” is one of the most talked about debates in the otaku community. Over the years, we have seen how some anime have had great popularity in their first season and when the production of a continuation is announced, the joy of the fans is so great that they usually celebrate it in different otaku groups.

However, we have also seen the disappointment of some fans with said continuation of the anime, whose new part/season/movie failed to have anywhere near the huge relevance it had in its first season. This is something that has reached the Reddit platform and is that the user known as “yousslc” has given rise to other users to give their opinion on how some anime should have ended and have a better closure in its history.

These are the Anime that should have ended early according to otakus

Death Note Anime

The anime in question that this user told us about is the classic Death Note, this anime is one of the best known cultural references if we are talking about Japanese animation, and there was a time when if a person wanted to enter the world of anime the series he saw or the one that was recommended was undoubtedly Death Note. Its well-developed story, its animation, its main characters and their respective rivalry marked an entire generation and continues to surprise us today.

Death note” is often mentioned, which is a great example of a series that would not necessarily have had a “banger” ending if it had ended directly at “that point”. But at the same time, everything beyond that point is of a lower quality than what came before. I think rewriting that turning point and perhaps expanding that segment of the story a bit to serve as a grand finale would have resulted in a better overall product.”

Why should it have ended earlier? According to otakus, this series declines in its second half, where by losing a character as important as L is, Kira no longer has a worthy rival, it is at that point where the series becomes a bit heavier. These are just some of the reasons why many people think it should have ended differently and like this one, there are many anime that fans think could have ended earlier and if this had happened, the series would have improved enormously.

Shokugeki No Soma

Next we will talk a bit more about those series that users on Reddit commented on; “Shokugeki no Soma“. The ending of the fourth season didn’t close all the loose ends, but it could have remained as a satisfactory ending if the series hadn’t continued. The fifth season was weird, disappointing and a lousy ending to the story.” The cooking shonen was one of the most commented anime and it is no secret that with the passing of the seasons the story declined and gave us a rushed ending, no doubt many fans were disappointed.

Yakusoku no Neverland. Probably, we will never know, maybe the second season would have been good, but if they had stayed in the first season many disasters could have been avoided”, was another comment left in the forum and one in which many users agree, we can still remember how disastrous its second season was making the fans of this franchise had to deny that it ever existed.

Other comments were “Darling on FranXX. If they had killed the antagonists before the aliens appeared, the series would have been a 10/10″, “Rent-A-Girlfriend should have ended before the first season” or “Yu Yu Hakusho really didn’t need the last arc”, the amount of anime mentioned was immense and they all have in common that they are considered series that with the passing of their chapters lost their strength causing their filler or endings to be not at all satisfactory.

It is very interesting to witness all this exchange of ideas, anime fans gave their opinion highlighting the importance of narrative and development to achieve a good story. This type of debate makes it clear that the community of anime lovers is united and their knowledge serves to express their ideas and exchange opinions with people who share their tastes. For you, which anime should have ended first?
