Countless manga and anime series have gotten off to a great start, earning a spot in manga magazines such as Weekly Shonen Jump and Weekly Young Jumpbut sticking the landing is even harder. Not every writer or manga artist can deliver a satisfying, memorable ending to wrap up an ongoing story, with some manga having generic or even bad endings.
Oshi no Kofor example, it had a tricky ending, and Bleach it had a rushed ending which the anime needs to improve. Then there is the case Demon Slayerwhich offered a solid but lackluster conclusion. There wasn't anything terrible about the finale of that manga, but I also didn't find it particularly thought-provoking or creative. It ended a fun but formulaic story in a predictable way Demon Slayer it just ticked all the boxes from start to finish. If manga readers want to find an uplifting, memorable, or grittier ending, some other manga titles are ready to provide.
Naruto's ending also seemed predictable but more satisfying
Naruto Uzumaki gained much more than Nezuko and Tanjiro
Honestly, it's not easy for shonen action manga and anime to have a bold yet effective ending that ends the story on a surprising note. I like it Demon Slayer and Naruto they are more or less “supposed” to end in a familiar way, with the hero leaving the action after saving the world, and maybe the hero also has a lover. The Shonen “Big Three” are either taking this path or have already taken it, incl Naruto.
What makes the end Narutois manga stronger than Demon SlayerOwn is that the predictable “happily ever after” is just bigger and a long time coming. Of course, Naruto Uzumaki became Hokage, just like that course Nezuko was healed after Muzano's defeat, but seeing Naruto become Hokage was much more cathartic. He was a bigger underdog than Kamados and dreamed bigger, so naturally his ending is much more impressive. What's more, Naruto gained something new while Nezuko was merely restored to the state she once was.

Death Note's Ending is a chilling reminder that ideas never die
Kira survived Light Yagami himself
Death Note is a case of manga and anime endings feeling similar and completely different. The story of Light Yagami, the anti-hero genius, probably ended better Death Note's manga, which Light couldn't escape his fate in that warehouse as Near watched. It was fitting how Light's downfall was a public humiliation, including his ironic death at Ryuk's hands.
as a whole Death NoteThe end is stronger than Demon Slayer's ending on many levels, including the theme of Light flying too close to the sun and receiving karmic justice for all he's done. It's also rare for shonen heroes to be killed off in their own series, but for what they are Death Note. Most of all, the last few pages stunned fans with the fact that Kira's cult outlived the man himself, with an unnamed girl praying to Kira wholeheartedly. Light was dead but Kira held on and it's scary to think about.
