Favorite Anime Endings

Recommended Posts

Thought it might be a bit more interesting for people, since endings are generally less memorable than the openings.

I'll just give out two of my favorites from recent memory to start off:

Anime: Haikyuu!!
It's just so fresh. A Japanese Country song? First I've heard of it (don't hate on me if there are others). It was just unexpected to me, and while I'm not as much of a fan of American country music (mainstream's all pretty bland) I find myself listening to this ending time and time again.

Anime: Shin Sekai Yori (From the New World)
The guitar is just amazing in this song, and it continuously sets the tone on the whole show, adding a sense of surrealism and bittersweet thought that's continually injected into the whole show. The visuals greatly adhere to this as well and work perfeclty with the music. The minimalist ending with the view of the hand whose owner we never see literally left me in tears at the end of certain episodes. For lack of a more powerful word, it's absolutely beautiful.

I was literally about to make this today, beat me to it. :P

 

My favorite right now is Heroman's first ending, but there's no videos of it with the song unchanged, so I'll go with this for my post:

atm Agro beat me with Haikyuu & Shradow with Engaged. 

 

I'm racking my brain here ah...

 

I can't go wrong with this until I think of another that I really love.

Oh, and this ending that was just put to such a waste. I really enjoyed watching the ending.

Ah yes, SnS. Moreso just the Final ones for me. 

 

Sucks I can't see what that first one is though, on account of copyright. Doesn't really make sense imo. It's a Japanese thing, should be blocked in Japan only, anywhere but Japan, or just everywhere. I don't have a clue what is supposed to make the most sense in that regard.

Searched up the lyrics I could see before playing it though. I Believe? Seems like we have something even more in common. 

 

Arata: The Legend's got endings that certainly have me remembering the songs a good deal. Extremely hard to come by the actual animation, but that isn't why I like it, so uh...

Agro is right, it's far harder to find truly memorable endings. Shugo Chara's would be the most nostalgic for me, though.

I may have posted something else in the old Endings thread (can't remember), but in terms of songs, these endings take the cake for me:

 

Black Rock Shooter (TV) ending - Bokura no Ashiato by supercell

Naruto Shippuden ending 14 - Utakata Hanabi by supercell

Magi: The Labyrinth of Magic ending 2 - The Bravery by supercell

 

Also, I may have others, but in terms of EVERYTHING, this is definitely glorious:

Death Note Ending 1. The first 20 seconds are some of the most inspirational notes I've ever heard, and in combination with some of the closing events of episodes, they were powerful beyond any other music I've heard. They stir a sense of sadness, regret, are pretty darn scary, and picture perfectly one high-school boy's hellish descent into an all-consuming madness, always just out of sight, out of reach, hidden behind that unflinchingly flawless facade.
