One season anime

[Eiko Guy]

Does anyone know why some anime has situations where the finaal boss is so strong(this mostly applies to action anime) that they have to stop after one season. For example, shaman king zeek was so strong that no other force could rival him , and the team had advanced so much that it would be near impossible to get stronger. Inuyasha did the best thing by breaking the shikkon jewel so they could search for many seasons.

Any anime you like that was cut short because of this reason?

Just one question, is Inuyasha even finished in Japan? Someone told me they weren't but seems unbelievable. Inuyasha has too many episodes. All the characters should be in their like twenties. Naraku must be beatable, otherwise what would be the point.

I can't really think of any anime like that...

[Eiko Guy]

i think seshomaru could kill him by reviving onigumo with tenseiga

[AdVenT]

Yeah I stoped watchin Shaman King just because of that.

[Zeromus_X]

Inuyasha isn't over, well, not that I recall.

Somehow.

I find that the best animes are the ones that only go for one season. But thats just me.

[Zeromus_X]

Yeah, the ones that don't have 400+ episodes showing the next level of planet destroying power.

The Inuyasha anime stopped, while new manga chapters are still being released. The anime was never finished.
Also, Naruto comes to mind.

DBZ was a lot like that. Seriously; Super Saiyan 3? Morons.

Espicially when it was a MAJOR plot point a few story arcs back that only one other Saiyan had achieved Super Saiyan status. Yet in the arc you're refering to, almost any of the people with saiyan blood can do it, on command and with mulitple levels? Personally I think they should have stopped with Frieza.

InuYasha anime finished in Japan in 2004 after 167 episodes. It was cut short because apparently an important part of the staff couldn't work on the show anymore.
Some action anime are only designed to run for one or two seasons (13 or 26 episodes), but those tend to be the ones that are not based off of Manga. I can't think of any that were cut short, but I can think of at least one that went on longer than originally planned.

Toriyama planned to end the 'Dragonball' storyline with Goku becoming the 'True Super Saiyan' and defeating Frieza, but fans/executives demanded more. The result is a somewhat diluted continuation of the series that went on for several years longer than intended.

Yes! I am awesome.

The only time I've seen a 200+ anime I've wanted to watch all of is Sailor Moon.

And resulted in a spin-off where a SSJ could turn level 4 and still not be the strongest being in the universe....

I have trouble being dedicated to watching a 26-episode series. Having to sit through and be attentive to 100+ episodes would drive me nuts.
