We also got the best Reigen moment in the entire show having him admit everything to Mob that he already knew about deep down but denied because he wouldn't believe his master was that type of person.
I loved that it was reigen who managed to bring mob to his senses. I think mob actually knew reigen was not a psychic the whole time, but it was him admitting it to mob that had an impact. Seeing reigen confront a side of himself that he wasnt proud of and then accepting it.
He knew reigen wasn't a psychic, somewhere in the episode his depressed version actually says to himself "how long are you going to pretend, this man is full of lies".

They literally introduced a character that had like 10 seconds of screen time during season 1, in the second half of the final season, and they did it so well it felt like he’d been there the entire time.
I think it felt that way because ONE and Bones managed to drive home the point of the story by somehow making every side character be the MC of their own life, so I could imagine Takenaka just being there the whole time with his own problems. He also showed up in the background in S2. Tsubomi’s a good example too. It was only in S3 that we got some hints of what’s in her mind and those made me like her character more (even with just the sneeze alone).
@@originaljoke-y5f versus s crazy it alr got multiverse and all involved in it but this time our MC gets stronger by time not just already overpowered which is good approach by mappa
I watched mob psycho with my dad and he LOVED it. He didn’t really like it in the beginning but as the story started to pick up and the seasons ended he started to ask me “when’s the next season come out?” When we finished the final episode he turned to me and went “is that it?” I was like “yeah” and he told me that if there was nothing else coming he was pretty satisfied with where it ended, which is something he’s never said to me before. It’s such a good anime bro. As much as I wish there was more of it, I’m happy it ended where it ended.
It’s because Mob Psycho is just well written and tells a very relatable story. It’s funny because I feel most manga/anime suffers from trying to adhere to the culture it comes from instead of simply telling stories.
The final mob psycho episode had me tearing up throughout and at the end. I thought going into it we had one more but nope, that was it and boy it hit hard. Glad I rewatched the previous seasons right before 3 started. What a banger series.
I literally am watching this video after just finishing the final mob pscho episode and by far I gotta say one of my most favorite anime endings for how it tackles alotta feelings I had throughout the show and Kageyama's journey... personally I feel like the wrapping up of loose ends was nice but leaving his story open ended in such a way is very relatable and throughout the series run had so many beautiful real hard hitting moments as far as story telling goes "Mob Psycho" one of the best animes of them all
its kind of a 'rely on your friends' ending too but with more... tactic too it. the madlad maneuvered things to make SURE that those with the best chance of improving the world ended up where they needed to be and were protected.
The show is literally a masterpiece it perfectly balances its action, comedy and emotional scenes. The characters are all s tier and well written such a fantastic world and story built by one very satisfying ending.
And that's ONE of the reasons why Mob Psycho 100 is ONE of my favourite series of all time. Also, Code Geass is another perfect treasure, that ending was just perfection.
Code Geass ending is so good that you forget Lelouch almost got revealed by a Cat. And don't forget the pizza episode, i know for a fact Pizza hut spent a lot of money on that episode
@@maestroplay6563 Everyone shits on those episodes but I love 'em, a cat almost ruining Lelouch's masterplans is hilarious, Arthur was such a huge troll.
I remember the day the Soul Eater finale came out - I was already thrown off because they just completely abandoned the plot from the manga but that ending KILLED me. I’d never been more devastated by a punch.
I was so infuriated by the ending I turned off my pc and went to bed, I was just that annoyed with the ending never had I wished more to have never gotten invested in the anime
I just don't know how it came to this. There was nothing leading to it. It was like the final episode was for a different series. There was buildup to something completely else in the episodes prior. I once read that all of the writers from the show left or got fired before they got to write the last episode. No idea if it's true or not but it would make sense to me
I loved that it WAS about the power of friendship but in a way that fit with the themes of the work. Mob learns about connecting with people and opening up. It's not just 'power of friendship' with no build up, that's the whole anime!
Fullmetal Alchemist Brotherhood handles power of friendship in a satisfying way as well. They still struggle greatly and set plans in motion to actually beat the main villain, but the support of his friends actually helps Edward Elric realize things about himself
I can't help but feel that Mob Psycho is a perfect story. One of the few times I had to seek out the manga and read it to the end even before it was adapted.
@@stavsrefis3966 lol youre dumb imagine using the internet and going out of your way to find a comment that "spoils" something so you can cry about it. Get medical help
the mob psycho ending was so good, had me lowkey tearing up the dimple fight which started to solidfy his ideals and having to lose one of the only people who you connected with in a long time the mini school and ufo arc, which almost felt like a celebration of everything mob but with him still slowly accepting himself and the final fight, my god what beautiful sequence seeing mob laugh and cry at the end made me feel so happy, hope we get more endings like this
Fr, the Entire show is about Mob 100%, but when it shows me Kageyama Shigeo 100% makes me Cry with smile bro, Shigeo truly accepts that mob is just Part of him
Nothing will beat the ending of Boku no Pico though. It's a story about someone _different_ looking for people similar to him and eventually finding 2 people perfect for him and they all end up peeing on the sidewalk.
After reading a manga with the worst ending ever, Mob Psycho was a breath of fresh air such a beautifully concluded story that made me cry rivers just by seeing the main character laugh
@@mirarman yeah I did find it a little weird that no one talked about how mob destroyed a part of the city and probably killed some people. I guess its implied no one was hurt somehow
God yes I am so glad that BONES got to adhere to ONE's actual writing and showcase how actually beautiful his stories are. I'd been reading the manga and oh man... seeing the ending then was just as intensely emotional as seeing it now. This series means so much to me, and the fact that ONE treated it with the respect to wrap it up is more inspiring than anything.
BONES put a lot of love into Mob Psycho 100. Every opening is like an homage to animation, and despite the fact that ONE told them to not be a slave to the source material, they did a wonder at adapting it
Thank you for speaking out on this, Charlie. I always felt this when I am watching anime. The ending to an anime is always extremely important because a series is building and building and continuously building up to the ending. When years or months of building up to the ending conclude with a terrible, written ending, the series loses its point.
Mob Psycho was an anime I saw back when it first started and I thought no one would like it because of the expiremental animation. I loved it and couldn't find anyone to talk to about it. So happy it blew up and grew such an amazing Fandom. I also love the fact that the show shows that nothing will ever be perfect, even something sad like denial can be seen as a good thing when Mob finally shows he can accept himself for who he is. The whole cast of characters has something to love. The fitness club students provided some of the most wholesome scenes I've ever seen in an anime. Truly an amazing overall experience for anyone questioning if they should watch it.
Mob is absolutely a masterpiece from start to finish, a lesson in how to write fantastic character interaction and development. Definitely my number 1 of all time.
Me and my friends have an unspoken rule of not bringing up anime endings because we end up going on huge rants about how they could’ve done them so much better.
I've spent 3 days straight on a coke(sniff sniff) high discussing every anime ending we know with my friends seriously even without the stuff I think I could still go a day lmao
I'm SO glad you mentioned Soul Eater! It's my all time favorite anime and I NEED it to get a Full Metal Alchemist: Brotherhood style remake that includes all the great stuff missing from the Manga
sadly I don't see it working out with today's industry. It'd have to be 12 episode seasons to try to match the style and insane production of the original.
no joke i rewatch the series n unfortunately since the ending was yk.....in the anime I stop where the canon ends in the anime n finish reading the end.. yes its annoying but thats the only way I can actually feel gratitude for the ending.
Mob Psycho 100 was a masterpiece. The massive character growth from Mob holding in his emotions to finally accepting himself and showing his true self was beautiful. 10/10
Thank you for saying this. I’ve always held this opinion. Even some of my favorite anime’s have horrible endings. They almost never give enough time to wrap things up and it feels incredibly rushed and unsatisfying. I’ve only really seen 2 or 3 anime’s where I think, “Wow, that was a great ending.”
Yeah I agree but I didn’t think that mob psycho ending was good it was alright imo that’s it. I don’t know if you watched if you think it was a good ending I would love to hear your POV
@DagonFrazer How is this idiot still have a youtube channel? BRO IT'S BEEN 6 MONTHS I've been reporting these same bots, youtube does nothing. Typical TH-cam it seems, they don't gaf apparently.
This and JoJo part 6 (which Netflix did not do a good job advertising) have really great endings. Honestly this has been a pretty good season for anime.
@@jaligehdukuray6270 nah I found a clip of him talking about it, he’s watched up to stone ocean batch 1. He didn’t like most of part 4 but he liked part 5 and what he had seen of part 6
Oh my god. Charlie took the words out of my mouth. Every single main character in the show got a conclusion to their story arcs. Dimple's, Reigen's and Mob's story arcs made me cry. I got really attached to them cause they were really well-made characters.
I'll distribute some free Kool-Aid, here are some animes with the best endings IMO: Full Metal Alchemist Brotherhood, Monster, Assassination Classroom, Cowboy Bebop, Your lie in April, and Barakamon.
@@gordemn yea one of my favourite anime of all time simply because it is so simple and no nonsense, no grand ending either just a little lesson of gradual improvement, an epitome for what a slice of life is supposed to be.
My favourite part of the ending was the fact that it revealed Mob had a CHANCE with his crush; she said she is, "Yet to see him in that way", and they're rekindling their friendship by the end of the season. They're both still kids and have their whole lives to form a strong bond and potential realtionship. If love does or doesn't blossom, Mob is mature, ready for it, and is able to move on or tackle the challenges love provides.
In the manga it's translated as "I never saw you in that way". The point is that they should first form a genuine connection with no ulterior motives of eventually ending up together.
He was destined to be rejected however. It makes total sense in the story. If the story is about the struggles of this teenager who, even though has godlike power, still has to go through the same obstacles the other kids do, then he has to be rejected to learn. And for us dudes, being rejected is one of the very fundamental aspects of our growth. Mob's story could not be complete without a rejection that helps him grow further.
I just finished watching Mob Psycho 100 and what a roller coaster of emotions it was. Definitely one of the best written anime’s out there. Seeing Mob cry and laugh was a good ending for sure
The satisfaction and the closure of spending your time with journey of the series is one of the most important things that matters to me tbh. Thank you for giving your thoughts out on this.
I feel like Reigen had the best character development and arc He went from a con-man exploiting mob for profit To a guy who genuinely cared for mob and literally stared death in the eye for him By the end of season 3 my respect for Reigen fucking sky rocketed
As a manga reader of mob( yes i know that sounds) but the couldent have dkne it better for the whole last arch. But yeah reigen could have been done better in the anime, in the manga you get that face if him sooner, but i think they did cut to many scene to show that devolpement for him, and i think it would have hit harder, but yeah i 100% agree.
I think that’s one of the major problem with manga-anime adaptations, most manga’s story direction are dictated by the author alone, which gives freedom to the pacing of the story and when it’s going to end. Animes on the other hand, is affected by several factors such as the studio’s schedule, budget, etc. Which just adds a lot of unstable element into how it ends
The source material is already written. This is no excuse for having bad endings lmao. If the manga ending is good and the anime ending sucks, theres zero justification for it.
In theory it is suppose to be like that but mangakas have to deal with the pressure from the editors, while trying to meet deadliles while trying to draw every single week a cohesive and well made story. Its realy stresfull and some people barely come out helthy or well
@@Spice.Melange not just that. Most Manga that got Anime Adaptations are still On-going which means if the Anime has only 12-24 episode max means you should expect there will be no "REAL" ending unless the anime got a "New Season/Sequels" which will take years if its popular enough and also the Manga is still continuing for another 3-4 more years unless it gets "cancelled" cuz of lack of popularity or it doesn't sell enough(Japan Only) and also it has an intense competition so everyday new manga gets on the top of the popular list while the old manga go down the list of next to be canceled list. I read Manga and Watch Anime so I knew what to expect. Unless the Anime is "Original" which means is that its not an adaptation of some existing story from manga, light novel, game, or visual novel, but new work created by a "Studio" which will always have an "Ending".
Wonder egg priority is also another example of a good anime that had a really bad ending (or last few episodes in this case). I don't want to spoil too much but basically this girl goes to a world where she has to protect this other girl who came out of an egg and any damage done to her in this world she can heal instantly so she's basically a memorial here but when she goes back to the real world any damage she sustained affects her in the real world (so for instance if she got a cut on her arm it would heal instantly but once she wakes up in the real world the cut on her arm would appear and start bleeding) and wow this is a cool concept and was a great show that even had some pretty good trans representation, I wouldn't watch it past episode 7 or 8. Everything past that is actual garbage and it was so bad that they made an entire new special episode because people hated the first ending so much but the special episode sucked too because the majority of it was just a recap.
okay this is well..... it never hit "good" for me anyway but was obs worse in the ending, either way 6/10 overall I would say since the art/animation at least was good/fun edit: for me anyway to be "good" it has to have at least an "ok" ending if you want numbers lets say 5/10 (hope this makes sense)
That was cuz of production issues and one of the staff members was even hospitalized twice because of how bad the working conditions were. Really huge shame I haven’t seen much anime tackle the topics WEP did so well in the first 7 episodes then it just dropped the ball straight to hell. In another life Japanese workplaces aren’t hellholes and maybe we’d get less incidents like WEP
Thanks to your comment I impulsively went and watched Wonder Egg the past 4 hours. And the ending was just as bad as I'd thought. This is a problem I see with a lot of anime in general in their endings. For the first 90% of the series, the writing is fairly coherent, maybe a few lines of pretentious dialogue get thrown out there, but overall nothing is too confusing or convoluted. Then in the last 10% the series just throws in 20 new plot points and every philosophical sounding phrase in the book without them actually meaning anything to the story, like I can't tell you how many times the last 10 minutes of a series finale was just the characters saying deep words pretending their so deep and enlightened for no reason, all because the writers obviously just want to sound smart or something. Someone, anyone, tell me I'm wrong.
@@noe4354 They did the recap because they didn't have as they didn't have the episode ready for the release so they cut some shit together as a recap. Honestly if someone were to watch wonder egg just watch it until the recap and then make an ending up yourself. You'll be having a nice, emotional, beautifully made anime with an ok ending. The stuff the producers shoehorned in at the end was atrocious. It still makes me mad thinking about it.
I would say that a lot of anime suffer from poor endings due to being adapted prior to the manga being finished. At times like those the studio simply make up their ideal end which is often laughable compared to the mangaka's (think Full Metal Alchemist vs Brotherhood).
@@skyhunter2816 The 2005 movie though...the movie that wrapped up the 2003 series really lost me. I enjoyed the animation, music, etc but there were so many problems with the story. That's without going into too much detail. I could go off about it, but FMA is still worth a watch so I don't want to potentially spoil it for anyone who hasn't yet.
Best example of this is Gintama but the cast and the Author himself knew there won't be enough time like that last Episode of The Silver Soul Arc, where they point out where could the entire series would end in a comedic way
@@JayneAFK I'm still surprised so many people say that(some prefer it to FMA:B). I for my part love the first series. Doesn't mean it doesn't have its faults and flaws, though.
the Code Geass ending is absolutely beautiful. I agree, it's the best ending I've ever seen to anything. AND it's an anime original. no manga no light novel nothing.
It still failed to close a major plot device that instigated the story. Lelouch had made his pact with C.C. for his power on the condition to fulfill her one wish to die. Actually a very simple way to tie it in. They could have had Lelouch take C.C. Immortality like his father did. Could have just showed him driving the carriage at the end with him having the geass mark and C.C. not having it. Would have been a way better ending to fulfill the promise and also curse him to pretend he is dead away from his sister for eternity as well. Sad they missed an easy lay up of an ending.
@@Goldmageman the ending is perfect for me, but for people like you they made that movie (lelouch of ressurrection). Its an AU but it's cool for the people that liked CC and Lelouch relationship
Cowboy bebop still hits me in the feels EVERY single time. Perfect storytelling from start to finish with real emotion and emotional weight that’s relatable
I dropped Cowboy bebop cause I thought it was like Lupin the 3rd with just endless unrelated episodes but I am going to come back now that I read this comment
I agree with Charlie, ONE (Author/Mangaka) of Mob Psycho 100 managed to wrap up every character and their arcs beautifully and stayed true to its themes till the end and Studio Bones did a great job of adapting it with each season. I was smiling, laughing, crying, and getting hyped for action with each episode. Loved it! What a great conclusion! 🙌
i never expected to get a storyline with the psychic club. that was more wholesome than i thought. i'm glad the tsubomi plotline ended the way it did. it's the best way to end that one.
Thankfully the soul eater manga concluded a lot better than the anime. For all the fun wacky writing the conclusions can never seem to get nailed down with so many shows. Either they get dragged out and lose their potential, get rushed af or just don't get another season at all. Anime like Mob Psycho 100, Gintama, Eureka 7 and Fruits Basket 2019 are sadly always the exception. Telling the best story you can at the best pace is always the way forward. No need to drag it out or cut up content for easy profits. I find that only in recent years are we now seeing that happen more frequently with more passion project anime adaptations popping up. I don't think it's cuz the industry really improved per se, but more so that the market has just grown so big that naturally we're seeing more good shows being produced as a ripple effect
Thank you so much for talking about mob psycho because I really couldn't put in the right words to describe its ending how great and some how satisfying it was 🔥🔥and you did it in a great way especially "it made me smile"....very relatable 😅
On the opposite end, Hellsing Ultimate. Amazing awesome show until the very end. Then, loli dracula, de-aging butler, he drinks a nazzie femboy cat-person and ceases to exist for 30 years, then pops back in to drink some granny juice. Roll credits. That sh*t made me start wondering if i'd been eating the wrong gummi bears.
Teru who had improve his abilities over 3 seasons still lost to Mob, but actually in a way went toe to toe with him. I love seeing side characters getting this much development.
He DID win against mob. His goal was to save the people, so when he reveals that he put everyone inside orbs, it means he achieved his goal. It also shows growth because it's a very selfless act from a character that used to be an asshat. But of course he didnt beat him in combat cause no one can. Thats why the final boss had to be himself.
Mob really is something special when in the same medium, you have something popular like Promised Neverland, where the manga concluded and they didn’t find any reason to adapt the full story, so it got a rushed conclusion with a fan favorite arc being cut. And then there’s something like Mob that doesn’t even sell that well in Japan, but because the staff were passionate about it, it got a full conclusion in a well deserved adaptation that elevates the manga. It’s my favorite anime and it’s too bad that the artstyle is such a hard thing for some people to get around (my best friend dropped it after episode 4 for that lmao) while it’s that specific artstyle that helps contribute to some of the series’ most fluid moments
With Soul Eater, I'd highly recommend the manga. The anime splits off from the manga half way through due to the manga still ongoing at the time, and it's a shame that happened because the manga is really good. If anyone liked the Soul Eater anime but not the ending, I'd recommend checking the manga out
My favorite thing about season 3 is that the episode with the best animation is just the characters going for a hike in the mountains. No fights or any action.
@@ragnarock5043 That’s not an excuse. You can be satirical and still be good writing which in turn literally is not opm. Also the manga fell off. It’s no where near as big as it was back then. Also Mob is a satirical anime as well I don’t see why you’re giving mob the pass and not OPM.
As soon as I heard you say Mob Psycho I had to pause but i'm super happy to hear that, it's one of my favourite shows and I was worried they wouldn't stick the landing, gonna do binge season 3 now
I still remember the adrenaline rush from watching Fullmetal Alchemist Brotherhood back then. In 40+ episodes, it's plot twists after plot twists after plot twists, and the ending just concludes everything brilliantly. It's not over the top ending but I felt very satisfied.
@@Egryn To be fair to the 03 anime it was originally supposed to have a sequel season that would have actually tied everything up, but they couldn't get the budget and had to condense only the essentials into the conquerer of Shambala movie
I was looking for this comment! FMAB’s last 15 episodes felt like one big finale, still my favorite show. It is breathtaking. I still love rewatching the show and reactions to it.
@Mocha I've dropped it around chapter 20. It was such a chore to read to. Waiting for it to become even remotely interesting (because the authors of Death Note must have something in store, right?) and it being a complete disappointment. It's surprising it got an anime. Not surprising the anime was n even bigger pile of shit.
Was anybody else exceedingly happy when Charlie started talking about Code Geass. It was my first real anime I watched from start to finish and holy God. So good.
Before writing Soul Eater off completely. I would highly recommend checking out the manga there is a lot more content after episode 36 during Battle for BREW. So much more to the point where there’s an entirely different ending. If you want to give soul eater another try the manga would be the way to go a lot more complete without being rushed.
The manga is top tier. To this day, I’m still massively disappointed that the anime never continued with the actual story. Imo the second half of the manga is where the story started going hard and where the story really picks up, but it sucks that part of the story will just never be animated so we’re just stuck with that dog ass ending for the show.
Hearing so much about Mob Psycho and everyone loving it, I was ready to give it a shot eventually, but after seeing Moist give an incredible review about it, I thought I would watch it as soon as I can. I watched all 3 seasons in the last 4 days, and I will now without a doubt recommend this anime to literally anyone. What an incredible show
@@M4skyexe why? the manga was half-way though when the anime aired. it was inevitable, especially since it was designed to be a full one-off series and not a neverending filler-filled shounen like naruto.
I read the title to this video and I knew EXACTLY what you were going to talk about. It was soooo gooood! Glad I watched season 3 ahead of my gf because I'm about to rewatch it right now with them xD. Love shows that make me want to rewatch it immediately after it ends
I think they should make more anime ending like mob psycho, he doesn't just automatically get the girl he wanted cause he is the main character, the only time mob laughed since episode one was at the very end when he finally accepted who he really is.
Been following Mob Psycho since S1 aired in 2016, this is the only anime that got me crying for the ending. I'm glad it's amazing, It's a neat journey.
Was going to comment the same thing, I think ONE is great at making relatable characters, even villains, that have their arcs, no character is just like a random sidekick that doesn't have it's own struggle, personality, love and hate. It makes for such a great webcomic, manga and anime.
it's ok, the manga ended just as badly. i really wish this series wasn't forced to end and didn't talk no jutsu it's way through every plot thread. way to waste a good series.
ONE is a great story teller. I'm sad he has cancelled his OPM web comic draft because I also really liked his evolution as an artist, he got much better over time. Love ONE.
Without using spoilers, the big scenes with Teru and reigen at the tail end of this season made me cry with exhilaration and joy. It showed me how much I’d come to care about every goofy little character in this amazing series.
Soul eater and fmab have the same ending. Literal God loses to a normal power of friendship punch. kind of hypocritical that fmab is loved just because its put up at mal no.1 by bots years ago till now
@@bilaljanjua9903 It was a punch with his arm that he did everything to get back. It was the whole point of the story lmao to get his and his brother's bodies back. It makes perfect sense.
Thing with anime or most media that takes years to finish is that they run for so long and get so much success that the hardest part, the ending usually gets half assed, because to them at that point there isn’t enough incentive to make a flawless ending. Many authors after releasing weekly/monthly for years get burnt out in the story and the finale will just be means to an end for a lot of them. Because a lot of them, plan to stop or are don’t care because they already became super rich from it. That also excludes the fact many already know no matter how hard they try they wouldn’t meet the expectations for them. That’s why this tends to be an issue with mostly long running shows, as movies for example need to do well in their ending otherwise people wouldn’t watch it beyond the day 1 reviews. For authors of mangas that were best sellers for years, they aren’t really obligated for them to worry about their manga’s reviews after they already acquired alot of cash and already have a extreme fans who will always consume their product.
Bro, he's not saying that anime endings "don't meet expectations" they are straight up garbage. And to a degree, I'm on his side. Even in manga, it's like authors fart out a lewkwarm conclusion either leaving too many loose ends or just straight up not caring about how to end a story.
@@ManiacX1999 I don’t even know what you are trying to say, it seems like you got tunnel visioned on 3 words I’ve said and disregarded everything else. At what point I said anything about Charlie seeing animes as “not meeting expectations”? I said authors have a lot of reasons to half ass their endings, and a lot simply give up because they know they wouldn’t be able to pull it off and meet the expectations among other reasons I have previously pointed out. Then you literally just tell me the exact thing I said about authors not caring how to end the story because they already became rich or are very burnt out from it etc. Like bro, pay attention to what people are saying.
To add to what you said, another main reason would be cancellation. A lot of shows get axed and they have like 3 chapters to wrap everything up (most famous example of this was bleach). Not only that but the fear of cancellation makes the author feel like they have to keep upping the ante, until they get to what you described.
I absolutely loved the Code Geass ending, felt so bad ass, Assasination Classroom is probably the only other anime where i felt that satisfied with the ending.
Here's the thing, Mob Psycho was fairly popular and if the studio wanted could've gone in a different direction and introduced new powerful characters as Mob has the power to beat all of them. But they didn't, they respected the source material and ended it without the cashing the cow dry. For that, studio Bones has my utmost respect, unlike some other studio who's making the finale of the most popular anime in recent times a four parter.
Attack on Titan season 4 is 3 parts because the animation staff originally only got well under a year to animate the entire season- if it wasn’t split into parts the entire final season would have been the same disappointing quality as part 1 and there wouldn’t have been scenes like those in the last few episodes of part 2, even if it still doesn’t quite size up to Witt’s quality work on aot
I think using an entire season to wrap up a series rather than having it crammed into 1 or 2 episodes is really cool. It takes its time and wraps it all together nicely.
I loved Mob Psycho's 2 first seasons and i can't wait to watch the last one. But another anime that i liked the ending of was Jojo, and i'm sure many people disagree but i also know many people would agree as well. So i'm glad ir also followed the manga step by step basically (with minor changes). Shame the animation suffered sometimes, i think it might be Netflix's fault but i'm not sure, so i'll just say i'm glad they didn't really ruin it :>
That's why a show like FMA: Brotherhood is so loved. They actually wrap everything up in a satisfying way & give a proper conclusion. Then there are shows like 86 which do a great job of providing a satisfying ending, even though there's the potential for a lot more story to tell. But yeah, it's rare to see an anime get ANY ending these days, let alone a good one. It's one of the most noticeable problems the medium has.
@jameson nguyen Yeah, I keep holding off reading it in hopes the anime returns. I don't want to spoil it for myself, but it's hard not to just give in! 😅
@@artenthusiastae7196 Stone Oceans ending is kind of disappointing, but at the same time, that ending set up Pt 7 my favorite Chapter throughout the entire series
My sister is watching soul eater now and I wish they could do a reboot so we get the whole story. I forget the manga's actual ending but I remember it being better than the courage punch 🤣
@@AWB2 I'd argue that it was possible to do a good adaptation, but they refused to really think it out. Instead we got a cheap feeling product based on something truly great. Can't recommend the original cowboy bebop movie enough. That thing encapsulated everything great about the series in 2 hours, yet there are so many people who ignore it in the canon.
I love that Mob Psycho's ending is absolutely also about the power of friendship and human connections but it still manages to not feel cheap because the themes were there from the very start and stayed present throughout the entire story. The pacing this season felt a bit janky imo with the divine tree and final arc dragging out a bit too long but I understand why they would't want to make the last season the shortest. They absolutely nailed the ending though, I wept like a baby.
@@Khellyshine I also really enjoyed the mini arcs. My favourite parts of Mob Psycho are when general slice-of-life stuff happens in this otherwise bizarre universe and I think the pacing in those episodes was spot-on. The divine tree and ???% both could’ve been shortened by one episode though. It’s not that they did a bad job of filling each episode, it just felt like the build-up to Mob and Dimples showdown/reconciliation took too long and they could’ve also had Teru and Ritsu’s scenes with ???% in the same episode. Still really enjoyed every episode though.
It’s kind of funny that the last anime that I really got into was Code Geass. An series that I still go back to from time to time. I’ll still watch other shows here and there on a streaming service, but nothing could compete with the shows that I grew up in the 00s era.
That was a great time for anime endings. Fullmetal Alchemist, Code Geass, Gurren Lagann, Gundam 00, all have amazing endings. They all feel like full stories.
Seeing this video made me go and watch the last two episodes that I hadn't watched, and jeez, such a fulfilling, all around heartwarming ending. It almost makes me want a future sequal, but leaving it here is already perfect in my eyes.
I LOVED the Mob Psycho ending it was really satisfying to see Mob coming to terms with the dark side inside of him

@@brandonlee747 which one?
@@brandonlee747 8 seconds, with only 1 second actually being on screen. Takenaka . Season 1 episode 2 5:40-5:48
I think it felt that way because ONE and Bones managed to drive home the point of the story by somehow making every side character be the MC of their own life, so I could imagine Takenaka just being there the whole time with his own problems. He also showed up in the background in S2. Tsubomi’s a good example too. It was only in S3 that we got some hints of what’s in her mind and those made me like her character more (even with just the sneeze alone).
And the ones with a decent ending, just make you want more

I watched mob psycho with my dad and he LOVED it. He didn’t really like it in the beginning but as the story started to pick up and the seasons ended he started to ask me “when’s the next season come out?”
When we finished the final episode he turned to me and went “is that it?” I was like “yeah” and he told me that if there was nothing else coming he was pretty satisfied with where it ended, which is something he’s never said to me before.
It’s such a good anime bro. As much as I wish there was more of it, I’m happy it ended where it ended.
It’s because Mob Psycho is just well written and tells a very relatable story. It’s funny because I feel most manga/anime suffers from trying to adhere to the culture it comes from instead of simply telling stories.
I'm aware there's a spin off about Tome and Reigen and i have not read it yet but I'm wishing for an ova adaptation cause it sounds great

Fullmetal Alchemist Brotherhood handles power of friendship in a satisfying way as well. They still struggle greatly and set plans in motion to actually beat the main villain, but the support of his friends actually helps Edward Elric realize things about himself
Seeing Mob finally accept that side of himself that he had kept locked away for so long made me so proud. He grew so much ;_;

Thank you for speaking out on this, Charlie. I always felt this when I am watching anime.

When years or months of building up to the ending conclude with a terrible, written ending, the series loses its point.

Mob Psycho was an anime I saw back when it first started and I thought no one would like it because of the expiremental animation. I loved it and couldn't find anyone to talk to about it. So happy it blew up and grew such an amazing Fandom. I also love the fact that the show shows that nothing will ever be perfect, even something sad like denial can be seen as a good thing when Mob finally shows he can accept himself for who he is. The whole cast of characters has something to love. The fitness club students provided some of the most wholesome scenes I've ever seen in an anime. Truly an amazing overall experience for anyone questioning if they should watch it.
Mob is absolutely a masterpiece from start to finish, a lesson in how to write fantastic character interaction and development. Definitely my number 1 of all time.
Me and my friends have an unspoken rule of not bringing up anime endings because we end up going on huge rants about how they could’ve done them so much better.

sometimes it's okay to give a series a vague or open ending like Psycho Pass didn't need to continue following season 1
My favourite part of the ending was the fact that it revealed Mob had a CHANCE with his crush; she said she is, "Yet to see him in that way", and they're rekindling their friendship by the end of the season. They're both still kids and have their whole lives to form a strong bond and potential realtionship. If love does or doesn't blossom, Mob is mature, ready for it, and is able to move on or tackle the challenges love provides.
Can't agree more such a great ending
Yeah it was handled well
In the manga it's translated as "I never saw you in that way". The point is that they should first form a genuine connection with no ulterior motives of eventually ending up together.
I loved how at the very end when they surprised reigen, mob actually laughed, not like a giggle but an actual laugh *laugh*
He was destined to be rejected however. It makes total sense in the story. If the story is about the struggles of this teenager who, even though has godlike power, still has to go through the same obstacles the other kids do, then he has to be rejected to learn. And for us dudes, being rejected is one of the very fundamental aspects of our growth. Mob's story could not be complete without a rejection that helps him grow further.
Mob Psycho 100 is great. I remember laughing throughout it. I'm really glad to see Charlie enjoy it as much as I did.

I think that’s one of the major problem with manga-anime adaptations, most manga’s story direction are dictated by the author alone, which gives freedom to the pacing of the story and when it’s going to end. Animes on the other hand, is affected by several factors such as the studio’s schedule, budget, etc. Which just adds a lot of unstable element into how it ends
That depends on what manga anthology they are in. Shonen Jump is really quick to cancel series and the editors are pretty controlling.
The source material is already written. This is no excuse for having bad endings lmao. If the manga ending is good and the anime ending sucks, theres zero justification for it.
In theory it is suppose to be like that but mangakas have to deal with the pressure from the editors, while trying to meet deadliles while trying to draw every single week a cohesive and well made story. Its realy stresfull and some people barely come out helthy or well
@@Spice.Melange not just that. Most Manga that got Anime Adaptations are still On-going which means if the Anime has only 12-24 episode max means you should expect there will be no "REAL" ending unless the anime got a "New Season/Sequels" which will take years if its popular enough
and also the Manga is still continuing for another 3-4 more years unless it gets "cancelled" cuz of lack of popularity or it doesn't sell enough(Japan Only) and also it has an intense competition so everyday new manga gets on the top of the popular list while the old manga go down the list of next to be canceled list.
I read Manga and Watch Anime so I knew what to expect.

@@FAT4LS i see what youre saying. You right.
Wonder egg priority is also another example of a good anime that had a really bad ending (or last few episodes in this case). I don't want to spoil too much but basically this girl goes to a world where she has to protect this other girl who came out of an egg and any damage done to her in this world she can heal instantly so she's basically a memorial here but when she goes back to the real world any damage she sustained affects her in the real world (so for instance if she got a cut on her arm it would heal instantly but once she wakes up in the real world the cut on her arm would appear and start bleeding) and wow this is a cool concept and was a great show that even had some pretty good trans representation, I wouldn't watch it past episode 7 or 8. Everything past that is actual garbage and it was so bad that they made an entire new special episode because people hated the first ending so much but the special episode sucked too because the majority of it was just a recap.
okay this is well..... it never hit "good" for me anyway but was obs worse in the ending, either way 6/10 overall I would say since the art/animation at least was good/fun
edit: for me anyway to be "good" it has to have at least an "ok" ending if you want numbers lets say 5/10 (hope this makes sense)
That was cuz of production issues and one of the staff members was even hospitalized twice because of how bad the working conditions were. Really huge shame I haven’t seen much anime tackle the topics WEP did so well in the first 7 episodes then it just dropped the ball straight to hell. In another life Japanese workplaces aren’t hellholes and maybe we’d get less incidents like WEP
Thanks to your comment I impulsively went and watched Wonder Egg the past 4 hours. And the ending was just as bad as I'd thought. This is a problem I see with a lot of anime in general in their endings. For the first 90% of the series, the writing is fairly coherent, maybe a few lines of pretentious dialogue get thrown out there, but overall nothing is too confusing or convoluted. Then in the last 10% the series just throws in 20 new plot points and every philosophical sounding phrase in the book without them actually meaning anything to the story, like I can't tell you how many times the last 10 minutes of a series finale was just the characters saying deep words pretending their so deep and enlightened for no reason, all because the writers obviously just want to sound smart or something. Someone, anyone, tell me I'm wrong.
I still to this day cannot understand why they decided to put a recap episode in a 12 episode season....
@@noe4354 They did the recap because they didn't have as they didn't have the episode ready for the release so they cut some shit together as a recap. Honestly if someone were to watch wonder egg just watch it until the recap and then make an ending up yourself. You'll be having a nice, emotional, beautifully made anime with an ok ending. The stuff the producers shoehorned in at the end was atrocious. It still makes me mad thinking about it.
I would say that a lot of anime suffer from poor endings due to being adapted prior to the manga being finished. At times like those the studio simply make up their ideal end which is often laughable compared to the mangaka's (think Full Metal Alchemist vs Brotherhood).

The second he started talking about anime endings, i instantly thought of code geass.
It still failed to close a major plot device that instigated the story. Lelouch had made his pact with C.C. for his power on the condition to fulfill her one wish to die. Actually a very simple way to tie it in. They could have had Lelouch take C.C. Immortality like his father did. Could have just showed him driving the carriage at the end with him having the geass mark and C.C. not having it. Would have been a way better ending to fulfill the promise and also curse him to pretend he is dead away from his sister for eternity as well. Sad they missed an easy lay up of an ending.

No need to drag it out or cut up content for easy profits. I find that only in recent years are we now seeing that happen more frequently with more passion project anime adaptations popping up. I don't think it's cuz the industry really improved per se, but more so that the market has just grown so big that naturally we're seeing more good shows being produced as a ripple effect
Thank you so much for talking about mob psycho because I really couldn't put in the right words to describe its ending how great and some how satisfying it was 🔥🔥and you did it in a great way especially "it made me smile"....very relatable 😅
Wait, why didn't my feed give me updates on this about new episodes?, now i have to watch that as well.
@@Patrick_The_Pure Yeah the ending was really good.
I guess I should start watching the show then
On the opposite end, Hellsing Ultimate. Amazing awesome show until the very end. Then, loli dracula, de-aging butler, he drinks a nazzie femboy cat-person and ceases to exist for 30 years, then pops back in to drink some granny juice. Roll credits.
That sh*t made me start wondering if i'd been eating the wrong gummi bears.
Made me cry ngl
Watching dimples storyline actually made me tear up when he was fighting with the divine tree, honestly one of the best anime to finish off recently
Teru who had improve his abilities over 3 seasons still lost to Mob, but actually in a way went toe to toe with him. I love seeing side characters getting this much development.
i'm just dissapointed that he got humiliated in the exact same way. i get the symbolism but they didn't have to make it a 1:1 but mirrored.
@@juuchanIRLnah mate was a perfect excuse to give him another haircut
@@thebaseandtriflingcreature174 i liked the tall cactus the best
He DID win against mob. His goal was to save the people, so when he reveals that he put everyone inside orbs, it means he achieved his goal. It also shows growth because it's a very selfless act from a character that used to be an asshat. But of course he didnt beat him in combat cause no one can. Thats why the final boss had to be himself.
Mob really is something special when in the same medium, you have something popular like Promised Neverland, where the manga concluded and they didn’t find any reason to adapt the full story, so it got a rushed conclusion with a fan favorite arc being cut. And then there’s something like Mob that doesn’t even sell that well in Japan, but because the staff were passionate about it, it got a full conclusion in a well deserved adaptation that elevates the manga. It’s my favorite anime and it’s too bad that the artstyle is such a hard thing for some people to get around (my best friend dropped it after episode 4 for that lmao) while it’s that specific artstyle that helps contribute to some of the series’ most fluid moments
With Soul Eater, I'd highly recommend the manga. The anime splits off from the manga half way through due to the manga still ongoing at the time, and it's a shame that happened because the manga is really good. If anyone liked the Soul Eater anime but not the ending, I'd recommend checking the manga out
That makes a lot of sense! I recall not feeling as engaged a bit over halfway through, as if the writing got lazy or something.
The Manga was so Good and the ending was great!sadly the anime didn't do it justice
What sucked was that the anime splits around episode 37, and that’s only a third of the manga
I heard the manga sidelines my favorite character, Crona.
I'm almost positive that if the season 3 and onwards of fire force performs well that we'll get a proper Soul Eater remake

My favorite thing about season 3 is that the episode with the best animation is just the characters going for a hike in the mountains. No fights or any action.
ONE is just built different. he maximized his writing stats.
He's also improved his art a lot since the start of mob psycho 100's manga
How when he made one punch man which is kinda like mids
@@badazzkaz one punch man is supposed to be satire while mob is him writing seriously
@@badazzkaz it’s it a spoof of other animes
@@ragnarock5043 That’s not an excuse. You can be satirical and still be good writing which in turn literally is not opm. Also the manga fell off. It’s no where near as big as it was back then. Also Mob is a satirical anime as well I don’t see why you’re giving mob the pass and not OPM.
As soon as I heard you say Mob Psycho I had to pause but i'm super happy to hear that, it's one of my favourite shows and I was worried they wouldn't stick the landing, gonna do binge season 3 now

I still remember the adrenaline rush from watching Fullmetal Alchemist Brotherhood back then. In 40+ episodes, it's plot twists after plot twists after plot twists, and the ending just concludes everything brilliantly. It's not over the top ending but I felt very satisfied.
Brotherhood was based on the Manga and the Manga’s ending was much better than the “Adult Swim” version.

@Mocha I've dropped it around chapter 20. It was such a chore to read to. Waiting for it to become even remotely interesting (because the authors of Death Note must have something in store, right?) and it being a complete disappointment. It's surprising it got an anime.

@@soundthatyoucansee123 you didn't finish it did you?
Before writing Soul Eater off completely. I would highly recommend checking out the manga there is a lot more content after episode 36 during Battle for BREW. So much more to the point where there’s an entirely different ending. If you want to give soul eater another try the manga would be the way to go a lot more complete without being rushed.
I read the manga some few months back, it was such a banger, that shit is probably in my top 25
So true the manga is so fucking good
The manga was way better. I wish they animated the real Black Star fight that was by the end of the anime.
The manga is top tier. To this day, I’m still massively disappointed that the anime never continued with the actual story. Imo the second half of the manga is where the story started going hard and where the story really picks up, but it sucks that part of the story will just never be animated so we’re just stuck with that dog ass ending for the show.
@@saint6519 im just thankful that the artistic direction the anime went in for followed by the manga
Hearing so much about Mob Psycho and everyone loving it, I was ready to give it a shot eventually, but after seeing Moist give an incredible review about it, I thought I would watch it as soon as I can. I watched all 3 seasons in the last 4 days, and I will now without a doubt recommend this anime to literally anyone. What an incredible show
the manga ending is significantly different from the anime in Soul Eater and you should check it out

@@juuchanIRL Isn't that what happened with Fullmetal Alchemist originally
Mob Psycho was something I thought I would never enjoy and by the end of it I fell in love with it's plot and characters
Fr I thought they they would drop side characters especially in season 1, but moving forward they even released an episode dedicated for them too.
I read the title to this video and I knew EXACTLY what you were going to talk about. It was soooo gooood! Glad I watched season 3 ahead of my gf because I'm about to rewatch it right now with them xD. Love shows that make me want to rewatch it immediately after it ends
I think they should make more anime ending like mob psycho, he doesn't just automatically get the girl he wanted cause he is the main character, the only time mob laughed since episode one was at the very end when he finally accepted who he really is.
Been following Mob Psycho since S1 aired in 2016, this is the only anime that got me crying for the ending. I'm glad it's amazing, It's a neat journey.
Mob Psycho is written by ONE, an exceptional story teller and manga artist, he also made One Punch Man.
Was going to comment the same thing, I think ONE is great at making relatable characters, even villains, that have their arcs, no character is just like a random sidekick that doesn't have it's own struggle, personality, love and hate. It makes for such a great webcomic, manga and anime.
Season 1 of Promise Neverland was literally my favorite anime until the second season :(
it's ok, the manga ended just as badly.
i really wish this series wasn't forced to end and didn't talk no jutsu it's way through every plot thread. way to waste a good series.
there is no second season

Love ONE.
Mob's development in the ending where he didnt used his powers on trying to save the cat was just perfection
Mob psycho is about the only ending I actually think went well as it was meant to be bitter sweet.
Code Geass also has a good ending in my opinion, but Charlie already said that.
Nothing about Mob Psycho or anything involving ONE is anything other than bitter and contemptible.
@@amanofnoreputation2164 its good right
Assassination classroom ending made me cry
Stone Ocean for me
Without using spoilers, the big scenes with Teru and reigen at the tail end of this season made me cry with exhilaration and joy. It showed me how much I’d come to care about every goofy little character in this amazing series.
I'm so glad you touched on this. The ending of Mob put all of the pieces together, it was perfect.
Steins; Gate and Little Witch Academia were both masterpieces in during the journey and at the end. Quite a rarity
When you started talking about the promised neverland I almost teared up 😂 I was so hyped for season 2. Just got to the soul eater part 💀

Its not that anime endings are bad it's just that some bad anime endings really stands out with how bad it is
Thing with anime or most media that takes years to finish is that they run for so long and get so much success that the hardest part, the ending usually gets half assed, because to them at that point there isn’t enough incentive to make a flawless ending.
Many authors after releasing weekly/monthly for years get burnt out in the story and the finale will just be means to an end for a lot of them. Because a lot of them, plan to stop or are don’t care because they already became super rich from it. That also excludes the fact many already know no matter how hard they try they wouldn’t meet the expectations for them.
That’s why this tends to be an issue with mostly long running shows, as movies for example need to do well in their ending otherwise people wouldn’t watch it beyond the day 1 reviews. For authors of mangas that were best sellers for years, they aren’t really obligated for them to worry about their manga’s reviews after they already acquired alot of cash and already have a extreme fans who will always consume their product.
Bro, he's not saying that anime endings "don't meet expectations" they are straight up garbage. And to a degree, I'm on his side. Even in manga, it's like authors fart out a lewkwarm conclusion either leaving too many loose ends or just straight up not caring about how to end a story.
@@ManiacX1999 I don’t even know what you are trying to say, it seems like you got tunnel visioned on 3 words I’ve said and disregarded everything else.
At what point I said anything about Charlie seeing animes as “not meeting expectations”? I said authors have a lot of reasons to half ass their endings, and a lot simply give up because they know they wouldn’t be able to pull it off and meet the expectations among other reasons I have previously pointed out.
Then you literally just tell me the exact thing I said about authors not caring how to end the story because they already became rich or are very burnt out from it etc.
Like bro, pay attention to what people are saying.
To add to what you said, another main reason would be cancellation.
A lot of shows get axed and they have like 3 chapters to wrap everything up (most famous example of this was bleach). Not only that but the fear of cancellation makes the author feel like they have to keep upping the ante, until they get to what you described.
Code Geass is an S-Tier ending. Highly recommend.
Code Geass ending was very well executed and overall is one of the best anime of all time
Code geass has probably the best ending I’ve ever seen in anime and also I’m pretty sure it’s actually Charlie’s favourite anime
The only anime I ever watched (if you dont count stuff like dbz, naruto etc). I enjoyed every second of it and it changed my mindset towards anime
I absolutely loved the Code Geass ending, felt so bad ass, Assasination Classroom is probably the only other anime where i felt that satisfied with the ending.
I disrespected and peed on a WW2 veterans grave.
Here's the thing, Mob Psycho was fairly popular and if the studio wanted could've gone in a different direction and introduced new powerful characters as Mob has the power to beat all of them. But they didn't, they respected the source material and ended it without the cashing the cow dry. For that, studio Bones has my utmost respect, unlike some other studio who's making the finale of the most popular anime in recent times a four parter.
Attack on Titan season 4 is 3 parts because the animation staff originally only got well under a year to animate the entire season- if it wasn’t split into parts the entire final season would have been the same disappointing quality as part 1 and there wouldn’t have been scenes like those in the last few episodes of part 2, even if it still doesn’t quite size up to Witt’s quality work on aot

I think using an entire season to wrap up a series rather than having it crammed into 1 or 2 episodes is really cool. It takes its time and wraps it all together nicely.
Mob laughing and smiling at the end made me so happy and almost cry happy tears, that character development was amazing
I loved Mob Psycho's 2 first seasons and i can't wait to watch the last one.
But another anime that i liked the ending of was Jojo, and i'm sure many people disagree but i also know many people would agree as well. So i'm glad ir also followed the manga step by step basically (with minor changes).
Shame the animation suffered sometimes, i think it might be Netflix's fault but i'm not sure, so i'll just say i'm glad they didn't really ruin it :>
That's why a show like FMA: Brotherhood is so loved. They actually wrap everything up in a satisfying way & give a proper conclusion.
Then there are shows like 86 which do a great job of providing a satisfying ending, even though there's the potential for a lot more story to tell.
But yeah, it's rare to see an anime get ANY ending these days, let alone a good one. It's one of the most noticeable problems the medium has.
Yes and that's why your fanbase is using bots to stay on top rated. Insecure
86 is a light novel that is still ongoing I believe! They have a lot to adapt if they want to :)

We're getting the prequel in anime form at least. Although season 3 is taking awhile.
Cowboy Bebop is an example of an anime that was perfect from beginning to end!
Cowboy Bebop was perfect and Netflix committed a injustice when they thought they of all people would be able to translate it into live action.
@@AWB2 I'd argue that it was possible to do a good adaptation, but they refused to really think it out. Instead we got a cheap feeling product based on something truly great.
Can't recommend the original cowboy bebop movie enough. That thing encapsulated everything great about the series in 2 hours, yet there are so many people who ignore it in the canon.
It's not even hot take, it's just facts
I love that Mob Psycho's ending is absolutely also about the power of friendship and human connections but it still manages to not feel cheap because the themes were there from the very start and stayed present throughout the entire story. The pacing this season felt a bit janky imo with the divine tree and final arc dragging out a bit too long but I understand why they would't want to make the last season the shortest. They absolutely nailed the ending though, I wept like a baby.
Final arc was only dragged out because of those mini character arcs where side characters got their time to shine which I liked
@@Khellyshine I also really enjoyed the mini arcs. My favourite parts of Mob Psycho are when general slice-of-life stuff happens in this otherwise bizarre universe and I think the pacing in those episodes was spot-on. The divine tree and ???% both could’ve been shortened by one episode though. It’s not that they did a bad job of filling each episode, it just felt like the build-up to Mob and Dimples showdown/reconciliation took too long and they could’ve also had Teru and Ritsu’s scenes with ???% in the same episode. Still really enjoyed every episode though.
It’s kind of funny that the last anime that I really got into was Code Geass. An series that I still go back to from time to time. I’ll still watch other shows here and there on a streaming service, but nothing could compete with the shows that I grew up in the 00s era.
