The Other Troper
Tiger King
I like that idea, Dragon Quest Z. or maybe just "Reunion Party Ending"?

The awkwardness is part of the charm
Ok, no it isn't; my reaction when I saw the TRS flag was "I'll bet it's about length." And rightly so.
Unfortunately all I can think of is "All That Jazz Ending — and yes, I know why that's a very bad title.

I made a single proposition rename crowner here
. I apologize for arriving so late to this topic, but I agree that this title is particularly awkward and long. I think that the trope could also benefit from some clear redirects.

I should also note that some of the examples here seem to think that the trope is any ending where all the characters have a party, not just the imaginary ones.

Those count too if the media doesn't have any dead or imaginary characters.
Bump. Crowner is currently 13-6.
Bumping for more votes.
Avatars may be subject to change without notice.
The crowner seems to be pretty solidly in favour of renaming.

The title is spot on, witty, and even pulls off making a reference to a work that doesn't rely on FanMyopia—so why do we want it changed?
Isn't the goal Clear, Concise, and Witty? I hardly think the name breaks any length milestones, either.
Get a slant at this glossary of Pulp Detective terms. It rates. Pipe that?
'Cast reunion' is better than 'everybody comes back', and 'fantasy party ending' can be replaced with 'party ending'.
Wizard/Father of Tom
Okay, but "Cast" holds a different connotation than, say, "Character". The first makes me think of the actors, not the roles.
And the fantasy part of the party is sort of key here, because this is also about everyone coming back, even those who really shouldn't be able to.
To be fair, a shorter name would make a fine redirect. If someone could come up with one that actually fits, that is.

Bumping for yet more votes. ...Although, maybe there's really no consensus to rename after all. Perhaps this should be called.

Zzzzzzzzzz
No consensus to rename after nearly 5 months. Locking.

Vote up for yes, down for no.
Sure, the title is clear enough, but it's so awkwardly worded as well as lengthy. Could we perhaps consider an alternate one?
