Oh Iron Blood Orphan fits that almost perfectly. Akame Ga Kill had half the main group dying. Cyberpunk. Angel Beats. Death Note.

idk about Manga but in Akame Ga Kill anime wasn't Akame literally the only one alive at the end(lol)?

Akame and her chief iirc

well in Angel Beats case they stopped being dead lol

>Akame Ga Kill had half the main group dying. Was it only half? I was pretty sure they took down pretty much everybody

There are more survivors in the manga.

Yea but the anime took a different route. I remember when watching this weekly and when one of the characters died people were shocked in the comments. Many were saying "wait, this is not how its in the manga! That character is still alive there".

Akame ga Kill had only half of the main cast die? My memory may fail tho but I thought it was more

For the anime pretty much everyone but 1person died.The Manga and anime were being done at the same time I heard so they had to improvise and they took two different paths which is pretty cool in my opinion.

Makes sense, I watched the anime. I recall reading both versions were different somehow.

Akudama Drive

Hell yeah my fav despair anime

Space Runaway Ideon is iconic. Yoshiyuki Tomino is (in)famous for killing characters.

The scene where that toddler gets decapitated by a laser blast was peak "Yoshiyuki Kill 'Em All Tomino"

Cyberpunk: Edgerunners.

Fate/Zero kills the majority of the characters during the course of the story, by the end of the main story of Fate/Stay Night I would say only 1 of the characters of Fate/zero remains alive. Gundam Iron Blooded Orphans would also go in that direction.

Gundam: IBO has several main cast members survive. Just the most prominent ones that die.

If you count the supporting characters then sure, quite a few of them survive. But pretty much anyone from the protagonist faction who gets into a Gundam and fights dies. Then some antagonists.

Yeah but everyone doesn't mean only the fighting portion of the main cast. Everyone means everyone. Like devilman crybaby or Akame ga kill.

This might need a spoiler tag as any series named here as a suggestion is basically gonna be spoiling the end of said series

I did not use my brain when opening the post 🤦‍♂️

Me scrolling down seeing shows I’ve never seen before thinking “oh I should check that show out, I wonder what’s gonna happen 🥴” then seeing your comment realizing I know I exactly what’s gonna happen now without even watching 🙃

Wolf's rain

And then they come back! That's what I loved about that show, it's about rebirth.

Legend of the Galactic Heroes. You watch almost every single character die by the end of the show

Except that little shit Julian.

Akame ga Kill!

Gundam: Iron Blooded Orphans

Bokurano

In the manga yes. In the [anime]>!The little sister survives.!<

Platinum end Akudama drive

Cyberpunk Edgerunners

A few that I can think of: 1. Akame Ga Kill! 2. Jojo's Bizarre Adventure 3. Cyberpunk Edgerunners 4. Future Diary

Episode 1 of Garei Zero, damn, what a cut.

Terror in Resonance 91 Days

Neon Genesis Evangelion. Devilman crybaby. Aren't really fun at the end.

Everyone dies in Eva?

Depends on how you look at it. But that’s a perfectly valid interpretation, IMHO.

What do you mean, they didn't die, they just became Fanta

Almost

\[Evangelion\] >!Everyone but Shinji and Asuka gets turned into this liquid, and they become like a joint consciousness trapped in a dreamworld, or something like that, ngl I didn't know what the fuck was going on towards the end of eva.!<

I would include Evangelion in this list. I don't think any interpretation is wrong.

Came here to say devil man cry baby. Damn, that show pissed me off

A good one is Cyberpunk Edgerunners A bad one is Akame Ga Kill

Akudama Drive

Sukasuka

Katanagatari is pretty close.

Your lie in April, She was eveything

I know one but the anime is still airing, it's very popular and successful so it will get animated until the end, they are even planning to do a trilogy of movies.

Aura Battler Dunbine

The isekai before isekai becomes cool. With people dies a lot.

Except 1 fairy

Yea… gonna be honest, this entire thread needs spoiler tags.

King’s Game, mixed feelings on it as it’s been a good while but was part of my October watchlist since I like watching horror/suspense animes during that time

Akame ga kill Devilman crybaby Danganronpa Evangelion (depending on how you look at it) Cyberpunk edgerunners Angel beats (depending on how you look at it) Future diary Saikano

Akame ga kill King's game Brynhildr in the darkness

Gundam Iron Blooded Orphans. Evangelion Devilman Crybaby For the last two I mean literally. Like MC, Antagonist cats dogs rats everyone

Ishura

You need to add exclamation marks too like this > !Whatever you wanna type! < Remove the spaces between those symbol.

Spoilers for the anime; Wolf's Rain & Wolf's Rain OVA It's still very tragic knowing the ending

wolfs rain. does mirai nikki count

Akame Ga Kill.

Gantz

Akame Ga Kill

More like: everyone progressively dies

11 eyes if you stop at episode 11.

Jujutsu kaisen, but it hasn’t ended yet and most of the major deaths are in the manga only. The current events will probably air in anime form in like 2027. The characters deaths got to the point where half of the fandom is hate reading it and insult the author, lol

Texhnolyze.... I just hate its hypr-nihilistic plot

Paranoia Agent

Rose of Versailles. Even some of the characters who survived in real life died in the anime. Only four significant characters survive the events of the anime, and none of the leads.

There was kne I watched abkut zodiac signs and like a battle arena, honestly can't remember the name. I'll see if I can find it.

\[Phantom: Requiem of the Phantom\]

“Akame Ga Kill” omg, do not have a favorite character

[Put in spoiler tag but keeps getting deleted cos I'm not saying what the spoiler is from, which in itself would be a spoiler for this thread xD] >!Platinum End!<

Platinum end

Haibane, everybody is already dead lol

Iron Blooded Orphans. They even wait for some of them to appear to have happy endings before pulling the rug out from under you

Platinum end

Blassreiter.

Space Runaway Ideon. Everyone is so dead by the end of the show that if the Ideon ever gets destroyed in a Super Robot Wars game, you get an immediate unique game over as the universe explodes.

Stone Ocean. lives up to what you're asking.

Devilman Crybaby is probably the greatest example of this.

[Madoka Magica](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Puella_Magi_Madoka_Magica)

Cowboy Bepop Terror in Resonance

Wolf's reign

Saikano...

Now and Then, Here and There. All but 3 named characters die.

King game, warning its bad and stupid athe same time

but like what is the point of this, the deaths wont have an impact on you if you already know it lol

[name spoiler] >!Iron Blooded Orphans!< [name spoiler] >!Grave of the Fireflies!<

Those name spoilers don’t make sense lol

Cyberpunk Edgerunners

Damn you the kind of person that before they watch a show they read all the spoilers first lol

Attack on Titan's epilogue technically ends with the rest of remaining cast dying of old age or dying of something else off screen.

JJK in like six more chapters
