Anime That You Wish Lasted Longer

It feels heart crushing to see a really good anime with a strong potential to develop into multiple series die out so quickly.
Example: For me it would have to be Death Note since the ending felt a bit rushed. Did you feel that an Anime that you watched could've stuck around for a bit longer? If So post the name of it hihi! :3 Add your reasons behind these aligations to keep things interesting!

Ajin for me
It wouldn't hurt to have more sato badass moments

Puella Magi, for character development purposes, and to have shown Homura spending more time with Madoka.

Pandora Hearts and Loveless, to eliminate ending randomly and abruptedly on a cliffhanger.

Love is Like After the Rain, so we could see more of the relationship development.

Another Lady Innocent, because I know it's a hentai, but they were actually giving us the beginnings of an interesting plot and then???? it ended????

Violet Evergarden, because I need answers.

and Re:Zero, because I just need more Re:Zero.

I'd like to see more Izumi Shimomura if it gets another season. *Giggles*

Let's ignore all the "need another season" shows and ask if there were any shows I think would be better if they had more episodes but the story is already done.

Angel Beats comes to mind, since for it's fairly large cast of seemingly interesting characters, so few of them have any time to shine.

Yuri on Ice could've used more episodes instead of cramming an entire ice skating season into one anime season.

Those are the two big ones where I felt they got hampered by their shorter length. The rest, there's a ton and a half of shows I want a continuation to, but listing shows I think need another season gets long and less interesting very quickly.

"Sakamichi no Apollon"

"Samurai Champloo"


enjoyed both of them

I wished Lucky Star would never end. Such a cosy anime. Other than that any episodic anime that I've rated highly.

My answer to this is always Umineko. I wish it had more episodes and was actually given the opportunity to be good.

No game no life i'd say and Charlotte.

I would like One piece were a bit longer :(

The manga entertained me more than the anime for some reason. (Maybe because some content got taken out when animated) I loved every over reacted facial expression by Erika Furudo though!

I think the anime is based on Light novel and not in manga.
The manga is awesome!

I spent all my time reading the manga instead of watching it at all teehee. :3
Ps: Does Erika Furudo know how to play the villain? She do! *Giggles*

You did well. The anime is quite bad. The manga is more better.

I like the visual novel version- but I haven't tried the manga so maybe I'll give it a go!

They should've animated the ending to Red Data Girl and Ghost Hunt. It was only 1 or 2 novels left and the final part highlights the biggest mystery of the characters in the entire series.

And then there's Shakugan no Shana. Seeing Index, Zero no Tsukaima and FMP getting new seasons is depressing because producers now know what NOT to do because of what happened with the final season of Shana.

I'm on the same boat with ya and Charlotte felt like it was just forgotten somehow! :( Maybe it will come back in the future.

Pretty much every short Anime that I enjoyed.

It would be Handakun and also Death Note.
Srsly, the author should write more stories like Death Note.
We all tired of seeing those shounen battle manga and boring slice of life.

Berserk (1997)
Death note
Devilman crybaby
Blue gender

Samurai Champloo
Death Parade
Death Note

Hunter x hunter
Death Parade
Saiki Kusuo no psi nan

Every one of these shows:

In case you don't want to click, that's my personal list with a self-explanatory title. The series in question are:
* Akashic Records of Bastard Magical Instructor
* Atelier Escha & Logy: Alchemists of the Dusk Sky
* Black Bullet
* Chain Chronicle
* Chain Chronicle: The Light of Haecceitas
* Dragon Crisis!
* Aselia the Eternal
* Elsword
* Fire Emblem
* Jinki: Extend
* Lord Marksman and Vanadis
* Puella Magi Madoka Magica
* Soul Worker: Your Destiny Awaits
* Tales of Zestiria: The X (second season)
* Ys II

Top of the list are probably Uchuu Kyoudai (ended in the middle of a new arc, has tons mroe source material) and Juuni Kokuki (ended on a freaking recap episode, sadly the source material never got completed either).

I had no idea One Piece had so many chapters when I first started reading it though I had already commited and I wasn't dissapointed, a lot of my friends dropped it because they give up on any story that takes up more than 10 episodes to build a characters persona and telling bits of a story to make progress towards a new segment. OP is just one of those stories in which ya need to invest some time to really start to feel like the character's development is expanding as well as the overall plot.

It might have been better for A Silent Voice to be made into a TV series or something since, from what I've heard, a lot of important information from the manga was cut out in the movie. In particular, there were some characters who definitely needed more development than a 2-hour movie can afford.

Don't worry, we're getting a movie.

More than anything else i want NGNL.

violet evergarden and no game no life

I'm down for some more No Game No Life. I grew too attached to Jibril and Shiro teehee.

Hakushaku to Yousei (could have benn two single-cour seasons or an extended cour one season)

I would def like to see deadman wonderland get a couple more seasons because the manga is a banger

I can already imagine the characters of NGNL getting excited if they ever were to get a new season hihi:

There are many shows I could see more of, but if the show was any good it probably ended just at the right time. No reason keeping something alive just because you don't want to let go.

Not anime but Avatar the last airbender.
Like the ending was good and all, but some questions were unanswered in the series.
They were only readable in the comics :*(

Shirobako was intended to be ~52-episodes with characters rising up the ranks with each cour, but unfortunately it had to be cut down to 24-episodes. Not complaining since it still turned out well, but it could have done even more with 52-episodes. At least there's still a film coming.

Skip Beat and Akatsuki no Yona were cut horrifically short just after big moments their respective shows. They were so abrupt too, and it sucks not knowing if they'll ever be continued. I mean, the manga are options, but after being introduced through their anime, it's how I'm most familiar with those franchises.

I need more re:zero and irregular at magic high school

Ummmm, basically every good series that're not ended?


Made in Abyss, Grimgar, Erased (A1 changed the ending and make it shorter which ruins it), Re:zero (season 2 when?), NGNL(season 2 when), etc.

Angels Beats, definitely. 1 cour wasn't enough.

I agree with you. Samurai Champloo deserves a second season.

wish it lasted longer such good anime

Slam dunk
Golden boy
Kyou Kara ore wa

Great Teacher Onizuka would be my pick.

^This is pretty much my answer. Pls gimme season 3

Erased 100%. Like 3 more episodes and it would've been perfect. Personally I think the ending we got isn't bad, although many think that.

Rakudai Kishi no Cavalry.
Isekai wa Smartphone to tomo ni the story get better after the anime ends.

Mitsudomoe's 2nd season, it didn't even have 10 episodes.

Deadman wonderland because it is an amazing manga and the anime was going to be amazing to but it just ended and didn't finish.

Angel Beats easily. Having only one cour took what could have been an amazing anime to one that was merely good but very flawed.

Charlotte because it was great but it had a rushed ending.
Anohana could've used more character development.
Erased needed a full adaptation.
Hyouka, well, I could watch 1000+ original episodes of Hyouka and not get bored.
