RE: Why Not Every Anime Needs a Sequel 💬

Ahhhhhahahahha help! I really laughed out loud when I saw Boruto's face. I once liked the idea of next gens before, and I even tried watching Boruto (because Kakashi's still there), but I ended up getting disappointed by how some of the scenes (and even characters) there were like rip-offs of Naruto. The way Naruto ended was satisfying, tho there was that melancholy I felt because Neji died, but still it ended with Naruto finally getting the life he deserved. I thought I needed a sequel to see what'll happen next in his life, but it turns out it was better to leave the end that way.

As for other anime you've mentioned...yeah Death Note ended satisfyingly. From the moment Light started to kill, I knew he's bound to be killed off later on. I haven't watched the anime, but I read the manga and every chapter kept me on the edge of my seat anticipating his death. The only unexpected one that I didn't see coming is L's death, but it isn't something that is out of the box tho. Also, I somehow didn't expect Misa to outlive those two...I mean her lifespan, but anyway to be alone is much crueller than death so I totally understand her decision in the end. And just as you described it it ended so well without leaving any loose ends.

And Mobbbbb! It indeed ended perfectly~ It wasn't totally the ideal end, but it was so hopeful that I cried. I've watched how he improved throughout the series so I'm really happy at how it ended. It definitely wrapped up not only Mob's story but also the stories of the people around him.

But one thing I’ve learned as an anime fan is that missing something doesn’t mean it needs more.

Well said! Missing a character doesn't mean that we need them to bring back to feel less sad. It sure nice to see them again, but would that defeat the purpose of their death? If that happens, then the emotions and message they are supposed to impart would be meaningless, so it's better to just leave them that way, and just reminisce and rewatch those happy moments ;)
