History Main / EveryEpisodeEnding

* When Japanese video games released in the U.S. display "owari" (which consists of the hiragana o, wa, and ri) at the end of the credits, it will usually be replaced by "END," in which the three English letters substitute each of the three Japanese kana.

* ''WesternAnimation/MyLittlePonyFriendshipIsMagic'': Every episode ends with the episode's featured character announcing the [[AnAesop moral]] of the episode. The first three seasons have Twilight write Celestia a letter beginning with "Dear Princess Celestia..." With that said, the show started to phase out of this ending in Season 3. In season 4, the letters to Celestia were replaced with a journal that the main characters all wrote in. From season 5 onward this device was dropped completely.

* When a mission in the ''VideoGame/DevilMayCry'' games is cleared, the screen fills with bullet holes and shatters to reveal the ranking screen. In the ''Special Edition'' of ''VideoGame/DevilMayCry4'' and ''VideoGame/DevilMayCry5'', [[PromotedToPlayable playable]] Vergil's missions end with the screen being slashed instead, as a reference to his trademark katana, Yamato.

* Every issue of ''Comicbook/{{Watchmen}}'' ends with an {{epigraph}}, which quotes [[IdiosyncraticEpisodeNaming the source of each issue's title]].

* In ''VideoGame/TheWalkingDead'' you start off an episode with a "Previously on" and end an episode with a trailer for the upcoming episode. Seeing as Telltale releases most of their games in this style in chapters staggered across a year, this helps as a reminder what actually happened and wets your appetite for the upcoming parts.

Cartoons'' logo while shouting the series' title (though the one for "Max and his Special Problem" and "Max and the Pigeon Incident" instead has Max raise a finger and the shrug while grunting).

* ''WesternAnimation/OhYeahCartoons'': Every short (with the exceptions of ''Planet Kate'' and ''Fathead'') ends with a clip of a character(s) from the short (usually but not always the main character) appearing in the ''Oh Yeah! Cartoons'' logo while shouting the series' title.

* ''WesternAnimation/XavierRiddleAndTheSecretMuseum'': Every episode ends with the kids back in the white void (like in the episode's cold open), and they thank the viewer for joining their awesome adventure to meet the episode's historical hero. They all say their names, and pledge to exhibit the virtues of the hero.\
