What do you prefer
Nikaido:
I made sure not to click the spoiler, but just the fact that you said it has an abrupt ending kinda takes the surprise out of it.
Kinda like how surprised I was with the ending of first Code Geass series.
Aneroph:
I prefer whatever the directors give me. To quote 'Skip Beat'
"What's written in the script is always the best possible outcome".
K7IA:
We might all have different preferences concerning how the anime ends (sad/happy/insane :) ) , but it is obvious that we all want the story to properly end.
One thing I dislike is open endings. Especially when it is obvious that the creators are dragging the few final episodes just to prevent a conclusion (like Hikaru No Go) . It becomes more annoying when - after all the dragging - there is no proper ending even in the sequels :D
It is of course the most annoying when there is no ending and no sequels like GTO :P

(click to show/hide)In retrospect i remeber that my reaction were like "NOOOO!! WTF!!? it CANT end like THAT!!".
After thinking about it i realized it were one of the better and more unexpected endings ive seen.

as I understand Berserk anime did not have ending...well I guess you was refering to manga
I don't know why but I could never bring myself to watch the whole Berserk, I always whatched the first part and after that forgot about it, done it quite a few times. I know that it is supposed to be good anime, and as far as I saw it it was, but eh, should watch that thing finally >_<

err ya the anime ending for berserk kinda ruined it for me, i was loving it up till then. I considered checking out the manga back in teh day but it was too far along and ongoing. Then i heard the guy basically went on hiatus for years, but suposedly came back recently? anyone know the status of the manga these days? is it done? still going? did the guy finally finish it =P
to Nikaido.. cmon man how is that a spoiler? He just said it was abrupt and crappy, thats not a spoiler any way you look at it

The best ending I can remember, the ending that made most impact on me, as I still remember it after only seeing it once is ending of Serial Experiment Lain. Thou it was kind of good and kind of happy ending, but there was not quite happy Lain and her sister that was the only one left out after all the time/event changing and so on. It was sad. "happy", destructive, reconstructive and someone was insane. What can be better? :D (think I should watch that anime again)
Hmm, I can remember any good unexpected ending right now, there was this one 25-27 ep anime about space and two brothers fighting all the time and killing each other at some point and then the bad one turned good only in last ep...the ending was super sweet and so on, but I was thinking that the good one will stay and survive not the bad one, as he was bad to the core. Oh well not really something unusuall, but it was quite unexpected for me. and I think there was some insane person dying also involved. Oh, the bad brother help to drowe her trofy wife into insanity and she died, or something like that. Dar cant remember the title of the anime.....

Lain.. it must have not been that great an ending because i cant even remember what it was o_O I saw it a long time ago and actually have the DVD's but it never made a big impact on me i guess. Hell i cant even really remember the story at all, just that it was trippy. I do remember it had a bitching intro though. Maybe i should rewatch it at some point

whhaaa mushi-shi has a butchered ending? i was looking forward to that i heard its very episodic and weird. Kinda like kinos journey. You do say you liked suzaks ending though, and i hated the way that series went after the halfway point. Actuallyt he main character really brought that show down. He was a total idiot and basically a creepy stalker
Gungrave, which you mention as a good ending is a perfect example of me enjoying a series as long as the ending fits witht he story. I love that series and the story/history between brandon and harry is awesome. The ending was very sad and hard to watch for me but it fit in the context of the story.
i was pissed that
(click to show/hide)Mika was the one to survive! i HATED her so much. I had a feeling brandon wasn't going to make it but it was really sad to see him die =(
