She returns to work with a renewed sense of purpose, knowing that she’s already stronger than yesterday! Then her boss chews her out for the pettiest of reasons, still a dick, and her Rage song begins to play...
• AKIRA ends with Kaneda and his gang riding back into the ruins of Neo-Tokyo with the premonition of a brighter future.
• Alice In Sexland ends with Alice choosing to have the King of Hearts reign the realm for now, since she doesn't want to assume the role of the new Queen yet. Instead, she chooses to continue exploring the various locations in Sexland along with her friends, Bunny and Chessie.
• Amagi Brilliant Park: Per his agreement of running the park, Seiya quits being the manager at the end of episode 12 after the July 31st deadline. Everyone seems depressed at it though, including him. His aunt seems shocked that he quit, and then tells him that he seemed genuinely happy while working there. As Seiya thinks it over, he reconsiders his decision to quit, and goes back the next day, claiming that the park will fall into ruins without his intervention. Despite his claims, everyone is happy he's back, and they all look forward to attracting more visitors as the park opens up for business.

• Ayane's High Kick ends with Kunimitsu grabbing Ayane for another kickboxing match.
• Azumanga Daioh offers a very sedate example. The girls' time at high school is over, they're going to various colleges, the youngest, Chiyo, is moving to America, and it looks like the time spent with these characters is coming to a close, as the older girls walk off and Chiyo watches them go...before they call to her to join them, so they can spend the day at the local amusement park, and Chiyo realizes that while this part of their lives might be over, they'll always be together.
• BNA: Brand New Animal ends with the heroes managing to provide a cure for Nirvasyl Syndrome to the Beastmen population without having them lose their beastmen identities. After averting catastrophe, Mayor Rose vows to change Anima City for the better, starting with allowing humans to enter the city so that they and beastmen can coexist in peace and while Shirou may not like it, he'll do his best to support her. Michiru and Nazuna decide to stay in Anima City so that they can share their experiences as humans and beastmen to settle relations between the two groups.
• Baccano!'s anime adaptation has a three-part OVA wrap-up that ends many character arcs and putting most of our questions to rest (it even tells us What Happened to the Mouse?). However, rather than end on the same note as the main series, saying "Many Birthdays To Come" (It Makes Sense in Context), which came across as cheerfully final, the OVA ending says the traditional "What's Next On Baccano!", implying the characters' continued adventures. Despite this, the anime never received a second season due to low ratings and DVD sales.
• Season 2 of The Big O seems to close with Reset Button Ending, with Roger on his way to yet another negotiation. The sight of Angel and Dorothy watching him drive by, however, indicates that things aren't going to go exactly the same way.
• Catnapped! ends with Toriyasu and Meeko having stopped Buburina and saved Papadoll, only for the cats to come back seeking their help again.

• Detective School Q ends with the entirety of Q-class being appointed as Morihiko Dan's successors after they manage to defeat Pluto and see the death of its leader and founder, King Hades. The one-shot sequel, Detective School Q Premium ends with the class getting called back from their vacation because one of its surviving members, Cerberus, has resurrected the group, and is planning to resume their villainous activities. The last scene of the series ends with the detectives getting ready to face down their nemesis once again.
• Devil Hunter Yohko:
  • Episode 5 Hell on Earth ends with Yohko turning in her ring, thinking that devils will no longer come to Earth since Tokima has been defeated. But her grandmother tells her that another demon nemesis of their family still exists and Yohko will one day have to fight him. Azusa then runs in to report that a demon is attacking a construction site, forcing Yohko to go fight it.

• Devil May Cry: The Animated Series ends with Dante, Trish, and Lady driving off to their next demon hunting mission.

  • Dragon Ball GT closes it more definitely. Maybe. But since that's no longer canon...
  • The first part of Dragon Ball Super closes off this way, as well as pulling a Book Ends.
    Narrator: The endless challenge to go beyond all limits continues. When a new, powerful unknown enemy appears, Goku and his friends' adventures will begin again. Until then, a brief parting.

• Dragon Half ends with Mink and Dick about to get married when Rufa shows up talking about the rise of a new Demon Lord trying to pick up where Azatodeth left off. So the two postpone their wedding to go on a quest to stop him - at which point all of Mink's other remaining enemies decide to go back to trying to kill Mink for no explained reason. The following chapter is a Distant Epilogue about Mink and Dick's bratty daughter being taught a lesson in compassion by Rufa.
• Eyeshield 21 ends with a Time Skip to Sena's college years, where he joins the Enma University football team and prepares to compete in the Rice Bowl.
• Fairy Tail ends with the main cast embarking on a "century quest" (i.e. a mission that hasn't been completed in the past hundred years), showing that even with the likes of Zeref and Acnologia gone, there will still be adventures for the heroes to go on. Said "century quest" is even the springboard for the sequel manga.
• Fatal Fury: Devil Street of Horror: After the demise of the Martial Emperor, Terry and company set off for their "Next Battle Stage".
• Fist of the North Star ended with Kenshiro wandering through the wasteland, defeating bandits in his usual fashion and saving the innocent people who were attacked by them.

• Franken Fran: After getting trapped in a sunken ship and dreaming about a party where every single previous character appears, including the Professor, Fran gets rescued and goes back to the daily grind.
• Future GPX Cyber Formula ended Sin this way. Naturally, being a series about Formula One in the near future, it means Hayato continues racing and almost all the other characters, as they do in the real world, shuffle about from team to team and prepare for the next racing season.
• The Distant Finale of Gaiking: Legend of Daiku Maryu showed the cast five years in the future. Puria and her cronies, Naoto, and Daiya are living happy lives on Earth, but Daiku Maryu's tentative forays into space are suddenly placed in peril when alien monsters attack. Daiya's Flame Gridder grows hot, signalling that the mechanical dragon is close, and it swoops down and plucks him from the ground, and together they return to fight the monsters. Roll credits.
• Ghost in the Shell: The manga and film adaptation both end with Motoko (fused with the Puppet Master) standing on a hill, with a full view of the city below, saying "the net is vast and infinite". Her story does continue in the sequels: the film series and manga diverge but share the common thread of Motoko permanently becoming an intelligence inhabiting the Internet without favoring a single physical body.
• Giant Killing ended the series no more than half way into the season so it was either this or possibly a Sequel Hook.
• Gintama ends with the final chapter being a Distant Finale of an awakened Tama listening to a posthumous recording of Shinpachi revealing what happened to the Gintama cast during the weeks/months after the previous chapter. While the future world she sees was an illusion created by her younger copy at the behest of a spiteful Hasegawa, she does end the manga watching the Yorozuya going on their next job.
• Godannar ends with a Mimetic Beast attack, just when the entire restored force happens to all be in one spot.
• Goku: Midnight Eye: After killing Cassandra the Enchantress, the shapeshifting villainess of the manga's final arc, Goku is briefly seen reflecting on the experience before he polevaults into a cityscape for more adventures.
• Golden Boy ends with Kintaro riding off into the sunset, pursued by the girls he met throughout the series.
• Gun Blaze West was Cut Short due to low readership, so it has this kind of ending; it ends with Viu and his allies managing to pass the Baron's test and being permitted to continue on to GBW. An Indian guide comes to pick them up on buffaloes and they ride on to the next challenge. But not before Viu leaves his now damaged gun behind for his mentor Marcus to find so he can follow after them.
• Thanks to unfortunate real-life circumstances, it is highly unlikely that a third season of the Haruhi Suzumiya anime will ever be made, thereby causing the anime adaptation of the novels to have this kind of ending— The Movie being an adaptation of the fourth novel The Disappearance of Haruhi Suzumiya, which ends with Kyon realizing that he actually likes all of the SOS Brigade's crazy adventures, which in the novels started his Character Development to actually caring about the world around him. The anime keeps this interpretation, but with the implication that, though the heroes still have many more adventures ahead of them, we don't get to see what those adventures are.
• Hell's Paradise: Jigokuraku:
  • Nurugai and Shion wander north in search of Nurugai's clan in the epilogue, having adventures along the way.
  • The Bandit Brothers also survive their battles and move to Hong Kong to seek their fortunes there.
  • Also, in a short one pager the Tensen survive in the future, with what looks like Mei as well.
• HEROMAN ends with Dr. Minami and his gang breaking out of prison. There's a TO BE CONTINUED?.
• Holy Corpse Rising ends with Nikola and his harem managing to end the war between humans and witches. Then they go on a new journey and his harem bickers as usual.
• Hunter × Hunter: How the 2011 anime ends, due to the manga still being written during its production. Killua travels the world with Alluka, Leorio is still studying to become a doctor and Kurapika seeks out the remaining scarlet eyes. Except for Gon, whose adventure (meeting Ging) seems to now be over.
• Hybrid × Heart Magias Academy Ataraxia: The manga version ends this way since it only covers up to volume 3 of the light novels. After Kizuna defeats Grabel, he has an orgy with his harem so they can power up and prepare for the next invasion by the Batlantis Empire.
• The iDOLM@STER—The characters keep stressing that even though 765 Pro is a huge success, this is only the beginning for them. Plus, they're financially back at square zero after getting scammed by Kuroi.
• The ending of the Inuyasha anime is like this because it Overtook the Manga. Five years later, when the manga finally did end, a new anime season was made and wrapped the story up appropriately.
• Kabaneri of the Iron Fortress ends with Ikoma killing the Big Bad, but not before the capital of Kongokaku Station is overrun by Kabane. The Iron Fortress and its crew manage to escape the station in one piece and ride off into the sunset towards an uncertain but hopeful future.
• The Kawai Complex Guide to Manors and Hostel Behavior: The last page of the manga ends on another morning in Kawai house, implying that their strange and wacky days will keep going on.
• The anime adaption of Kekkaishi ends with Kokoburo completely destroyed and Yoshimori and the others returning to the real world. Tokine was worried sick after Yoshimori impulsively uses a hidden power to destroy Kaguro, and the entire series wraps up with Yoshimori and Tokine at Karasumori where they continue to stop Ayakashi from claiming it. The manga continues past it and ends more conclusively.
• Kero Kero Chime ends with the pages of the book that could have restored the main character from his curse scattered once again in the process of stopping the Big Bad, and the main cast heading out to gather them all over again.
• Love After World Domination ends with another battle against a supervillain organization but GEKKO are now the heroes.
• Lupin III: Unlikely to ever end in any other way.
  • A lot of Lupin III stuff ends like this. The very final chapter of the original manga ends with Lupin destroying his hideout and mentioning that he's hard at work on his next adventure.
  • The Castle of Cagliostro: the movie ends with Lupin driving off into the sunset, chased by Zenigata, showing that their ending is to continue doing this.
  • The board game of Lupin III explicitly states that the players are recreating a heist by Lupin; one of the many he has attempted.
• Magi: The Labyrinth of Magic ends pretty conclusively: David is finally defeated and the Sacred Palace and Dungeons are destroyed, which eliminates the magi and metal vessel systems, but also prevents the world's destruction. The geography of the world has been permanently changed as well, however, leading to the world leaders debating on how to decide new borders, and Aladin going of to explore the new world with Alibaba and Morgiana (who also finally get married).
• Magic Knight Rayearth: The manga ends with Hikaru, Umi and Fuu returning to Cephiro to visit their friends and help the neighboring planets with their problems.
• The first series of Magical Circle Guru-Guru concludes with Nike and Kukuiri at the door of the final Boss Room, before deciding, in true RPG fashion, that they're having too much of a good time and are going to go off and level up some more – much to the frustration of said final boss, who was anticipating some form of closure.
• Magical Girl Lyrical Nanoha A's ends with the three Aces rushing off to a mission. Turned out to be a Sequel Hook for the A's to StrikerS manga.
• Magical Girl Ore ends with the demon threat taken care of and Saki and Sakuyo retiring their macho shoujo idol image to go back to what they were; a struggling idol group trying to hit the big time. However, that doesn't mean they're done being Magical Girls...
• Majokko Megchan ends with Meg and Non being sent back to Earth for further training.
• Matoi the Sacred Slayer ends with Matoi managing to find her mother and bring her back home. She gets to live with both her parents, and she believes she no longer has the power to be an Exorcist girl. However, when Yuma gets a call about new demons appearing, it turns out Matoi hasn't lost her powers after all, and Yuma drags her with her on their next adventure.
• Michiko & Hatchin, with Hatchin leaving her new home with her baby daughter and reuniting with Michiko, years after the initial story.
  "Michiko. How far will we go next?"
• Mink ends with Kyo and Cyber Security dealt with and Mink choosing to continue being an idol with a Secret Identity, with the only difference being that Motoharu knows her identity now and is in an under-the-table relationship with her.
• Mon Colle Knights ends in a similar way to Flint The Time Detective, with the Big Bad beaten but the Goldfish Poop Gang getting away (albeit a bit embarrassingly) and the six treasures scattered to the winds and waiting to be found again.
• More Than a Married Couple, But Not Lovers ends with both main couples reaching the top ten and therefore are now able to switch partners if they so choose. However, Akari has gotten over her longtime crush on Minami and now wholeheartedly wants to stay with Jiro, while Shiori has also made her intentions clear as well, leaving the choice up to Jiro.
• The first season of The Mysterious Cities of Gold ends like this, with Esteban, Tao and Zia setting off on the Golden Condor to find the remaining six Cities of Gold.
• Outlaw Star's crew kicked ass, chewed gum, ran out of gum, ran out of ass. Once the Cat Girl went home, they decided it was time to go get some more gum.
• Because the anime had not been renewed for another season at the time, season 3 of Overlord (2012) ends with Ainz Ooal Gown slaughtering the Re-Estize Kingdom's army, including Gazef Stronoff, and taking control of E-Rantel, where he forces Momon into servitude by threatening the lives of the city's people, including children. With his enemies and allies alike having reached the Despair Event Horizon and no one left to defeat him, Ainz officially forms the Sorcerous Kingdom of Nazarick to continue his quest of world domination...cue a Smash to Black with the words "AND THE STORY GOES ON"
• Panty & Stocking with Garterbelt combines this with a Gainax Ending—after defeating Corset and saving Daten City, Stocking suddenly kills Panty and Garterbelt before slicing Panty up into 666 pieces, revealing that she was actually a demon all along despite this making even less sense than most of the story. Corset then emerges from Brief's penis and leaves with Stocking, declaring that he will use Panty's remains as a breadcrumb trail to lead Brief to Oten City, where there is another gateway to Hell. Then Garterbelt comes back.
  [Beat]
  Garterbelt: ...ahem. Go forth, Brief and Chuck! Onward!
• Pokémon RéBURST ends with Ryouga setting off on a new adventure with his friends, having found a place where he can free Zekrom from his Burst Heart.
• Pokémon: The Series ended with Ash realizing that To Be a Master means more than just being the very best, like no one ever was but rather continuing to see all the world and its Pokémon have to offer. After 26 years the series ends with him leaving Pallet Town once more to resume Walking the Earth. This also applies to Team Rocket, who reunite and are implied to have continued pursuing Ash and his Pikachu.
• The final episode of Popotan has its main characters reunite to continue time travelling. The very last shot sees them arriving in a time period where one of the previously seen side characters has grown up from teenager to adult.
• The final episode of Pretty Sammy TV/Magical Project S has Tsunami give Sasami an upgraded baton to replace the one that she lost earlier in the episode so she and Misao can stop a problem on Mars — namely Romio attempting to take over Mars.
• In Princess Princess the manga, the anime and the TV series all end with their respective problems solved, but the job of the princesses continue.
• Project A-Ko:
  • The first movie ends with A-ko and C-ko heading to school where B-ko is waiting for another fight.
  • Uncivil Wars ends with A-ko and B-ko, having returned C-ko to her father and saved the multiverse, going off to confront Maruten for taking all the credit.
• Psycho-Pass:
  • The series ends both seasons with this where the Sibyl System remains standing while new teammates join Akane's team and Kougami flees from Japan. Psycho-Pass: The Movie ends the same with Kougami still on the run and Akane going back to Japan to continue her work. The Sibyl System still exists... except now it's in the process of expanding its control throughout the whole world.
  • Psycho-Pass 3: First Inspector, a sequel movie to Season 3, ends with Bifrost's collapse and Akane being free from confinement and reuniting with Kougami. The Stinger has Akane telling Arata and Kei about the case related to the deaths of Arata's father and Kei's brother.
• Puella Magi Madoka Magica ends with the world remade by Madoka's wish into a world without witches, but with wraiths in their place that, similarly, serve as an outlet for humanity's despair and a power source that can reverse entropy. However, magical girls now simply disappear when their Soul Gems are depleted, and Homura continues to fight on in spite of Madoka's absence, inspired by her faith in humanity rather than the desire to save her. There is an ambiguously apocalyptic-looking Distant Finale Stinger, but that scene was evidently not meant to be taken literally.
• Puella Magi Madoka Magica The Movie: Rebellion, does this with extreme ambiguity. Homura de-powers Madoka so she can rewrite the world into heaven for the magical girls, and hell for the Incubators. But Sayaka, and seemingly Homura herself, hates her Well-Intentioned Extremist methods, and some of the other girls would probably agree if they didn't have Laser-Guided Amnesia. She says outright that she can't contain Madoka's power forever and that a, er, rebellion will likely occur. Another sequel to wrap this up is inevitable, but for now, it's basically a universe-sized chunk of Fanfic Fuel (comments from the creators imply this was intentional).
• Ranma ½ ends with the wedding bombed out and Ranma's cure lost, just like every other time something like that happens, the reader is told that things will continue to go on as they have, although there is at least some implication that Ranma and Akane have grown closer.
• Reborn! (2004) closes out this way, after all the opponents and obstacles the heroes go through. Tsuna still can't bring himself to tell his love interest he loves her nor decide if he truly will lead his mafia family. Due to this, Reborn decides to stick around for a while longer and continue tutoring him.
• Revolutionary Girl Utena ends with Anthy leaving Ohtori Academy at long last to go search for the now-missing Utena.
• Rosario + Vampire ends with Tsukune training under Issa and the gang going about their usual antics.
• The final episode of Sands of Destruction ends with Kyrie realizing who he really is, nearly destroying the world before Morte stops him. The two of them decide that, rather than turning everything to sand (as was her original idea), they'll travel the world with Taupy and help put an end to the Fantastic Racism to make it a better place.
• SD Gundam Force ends with the members of the Gundam Force being called once again to save another world in danger.
• Science Fell in Love, So I Tried to Prove it: Even after sharing a kiss of the highest theoretical value, and seeing that their Oxytocin values were much higher during this event than under any other circumstance, Himuro and Yukimura continue their research into romance. They have to repeat their experiments for statistical validity, you know, so they need to kiss many more times. Kanade rolls her eyes and leaves them to their science-type flirting.
  • Season 2 Bookends the series when Himuro says that Kanade might be in love with Yukimura. Ibarada comments that things might be getting interesting again at their lab.
• Most versions of Slayers end this way, especially the anime. The only time it could be averted is at the end of the novels, where Gourry insists on coming to Lina's home kingdom. His reason for wanting to do this is ambiguous.
• Sonic X combines this with Bittersweet Ending. Chris is sent back home to Earth with no chance of returning while Eggman continues his plans to build the Eggman Empire, with Sonic and his friends getting ready to stop him.
• Speed Racer ends with Speed taking off in the Mach 5 in search of his next race.

• SPY×FAMILY CODE: White ends with the family going to the southern regions to learn the new judge's favorite food (fortunately, Bond foresees nothing but a normal, happy family vacation).
• Super Atragon: The OVA ends with the Ra, repaired after her huge battle against the Liberty and half the subterranean race's weaponry, launching out towards the gigantic hole in Antartica left by the emergence of the black cylinders. Appropriately enough, the view is of the Ra going into the sunset.
• The Sword Art Online anime ends with the cast deciding to run through the newly recreated Aincrad castle from start to finish, only this time without the Death Game aspect.
• Tiger & Bunny ends with Kotetsu having lost his powers, forcing him to retire, but Barnaby swears to keep being a superhero to honor him.
• The Tokyo Mew Mew anime ends this way, with the girls returning to the cafe and Ryou announces there's a new threat they have to fight.
• The Toonami programming block ends with a simple LATER. More heartwarmingly, the original run also ended this way, more details on that page.
• Transformers: Cybertron, the final installment of the Unicron Trilogy, ends this way. The Autobot starships leave Earth, ready to continue their space bridge project and spread life across the universe while continuing their adventures, while the four planets with Transformer life continue to thrive and a team of Autobots hunts down the last (non comic relief) Decepticon, Starscream.
• Tsubasa Chronicle. The epic legendary Mind Screw might have been in danger of making something approaching sense had there been any other kind of ending.
• Vampire Hunter D and the sequel 'Bloodlust' end with D riding off into the distance to find and help others who are being oppressed by vampires.
• Wonder Egg Priority: At the end of the special, Ai goes back into the Dream World, wanting to see Neiru again. She then ends the special reintroducing herself to Acca and Ura-Acca before posing and smiling in a Freeze-Frame Ending.

• The anime adaptation of Yakitate!! Japan ends when Kazuma vows to keep experimenting to create the perfect Ja-pan. He eventually does, but that's only in the manga, when he uses ancient Japanese Wheat flour from his grandfather, Umajirou, along with whipped egg whites, grated Japanese mountain yam, and ground sesame seeds.
• Yu-Gi-Oh! ends with Pharaoh Atem passing on to the afterlife after being defeated by Yugi, but Yugi and his friends are able to move on and live their lives with confidence. In the final scene (unfortunately cut from the English dub), Yugi comments the Pharaoh's story is finished, but his story is just beginning.
• Yu-Gi-Oh! GX ends with Judai regaining his passion for dueling by dueling Yugi and having fun. He decides to go on a new adventure with Yubel, Pharaoh the Cat, and Daitokuji for company, promising to meet more great duelists and have fun along the way.
• Yu-Gi-Oh! 5D's ends with the group going their separate ways as they all have lives to live, but promising to always remain friends. Yusei swears that he will continue to protect Neo Domino City, and they will all do their best to avert the Bad Future Z-one, Paradox, Aporia, and Antinomy came from.
• Yu-Gi-Oh! ZEXAL ends with the universe saved and everybody who was killed in the final battle revived thanks to Yuma and Astral's efforts.

Then they hear that the Astral World is being attacked by a new threat, and everybody volunteers to travel there and help.
• Yu-Gi-Oh! ARC-V ends with Yuya finally defeating Reiji and passing the test to become a Pro Duelist. Even better, his victory unites the Four Dimensions, restores Yuzu and her counterparts to life, and brings Reira out of her BSOD.

Yuya happily accepts his father's challenge and they prepare to duel.

Yuga and his rival Luke happily prepare to duel.
• Zombiepowder. ends with Gamma Akutabi and C.T. Smith leaving Elwood and Wolfina to continue their quest, with no word on whether the surgery to extract the Ring of the Dead from Wolfina's brother was successful.
