Anime that only lasts a season with a satisfying ending

| Give me some anime that only last a season (~13 ep) with a good beginning-middle-end! No sequel hook, no setups for future arcs. Just a single season telling everything it needs to say and done!

Preferably something with a whole plotline, but episodic stories with an overarching plot that reaches a conclusion by the end is also ok.


| I enjoyed shinsekai yori, but it's 24 episodes long


| Baccano
Generator gawl
Ichigo mashimaro
Kachou ouji
Hinamatsuri
Tsuki ga kirei
White album 2
Niea
Koi kaze
Dmc
Elfen lied
Sakamichi no apollon


| Angel Beats


| interspecies reviewer, it's good


| A place further than the universe.

This is your best bet, fucking beautiful show.

Also if you want a good comedy then hinamatsuri is also just one season.


| Flip flappers


| Rascal does not dream of bunny girl senpai. It's 13 episodes and one movie at the end

I second this. It's really fucking good.

Also, Serial Experiments Lain. I thought it was satisfactory, though some people probably disagree.


| (op here)
That's a lot of recs! I think I'll give Baccano, Hinamatsuri, and A Place Further than the Universe a try. Feel free to throw in more recs.

I have watched that one! Thinking about it was what prompted me to make this thread. Haven't watched the movie, but the series ends very well.


| >>643124 I'm glad you liked the series. I definitely recommend the movie because the ending really ties everything together


| >>643124
Those are some good choices. Probably should watch the Bunny Girl movie as well, as >>50bf1b is saying. I haven't watched it personally, but, well, the show was great, so the movie probably is as well.


| Death Parade was pretty good.
I liked Suisei no Gargantia, but it was a pretty odd anime being about mecha but with low action content (kinda solarpunk-ish).
I think Sora no Woto count?
Girls last tour.. almost counts as the anime ends right before the not-as-happy conclusion in the manga which made me hopeful and I'm angry now.
Psycho Pass definitely counts.. the first season concluded nicely, and despite what anyone might say, it doesn't have a season 2 at all :D


| made in abyss for sure. They're finally finishing it off with a movie that you'll definitely want to see.the Music is bomb too.

A runner up would be Erased for me if you for some reason haven't watched it already.


| over the garden wall

Not an anime, but a very good example of a short series that knows when to make its exit, yes.

I have not, in fact, even heard of Erased. Thanks for the mention


| Made in Abyss
A place further than universe
Erased
Katana no Astra
Plastic memories


| Erased is great.


| Op here. Goddamn, Baccano! is good. Love it. Not as finished as I would like, but with the structure being like that, I can appreciate it. The trailing plot points can just be left to the viewer's imagination.

I'm going Death Parade next because the vibe intrigues me. Thanks for the recs, g/u/rls!

Let us know when you watch a place further than the universe, I'd love to hear what you think
