The Ending Theme (usually written as "ED") is similar to the Opening Theme ("OP"). The major difference is, they aren't really intended to show off or reveal anything about the show (although some may focus on a specific character and show off aspects of their personality similar to an Image Song). Typically, it's like a finale closing number. They may have a slower or mellower song with a more relaxed pace than the rest of the show. The images may be more static both to fit the ending's tone and to not obscure the list of animation credits. Conversely the Ending Theme can be more humorous and comedic featuring the characters in much goofier situations than you'd expect from the actual show; Super-Deformed characters and dancing are more likely to be seen in these sorts of endings. Anime endings usually change more frequently than anime openings (a good rough estimate is every 15-18 episodes). Anime series are more likely to have separate opening and ending theme songs. Western cartoons usually use an instrumental version of their opening theme for the Ending Theme, although there are a growing number of series that do have separate themes. Meanwhile, shows with a Title-Only Opening will have the ending theme serve as their Theme Tune. This is a Super-Trope to Solemn Ending Theme. Compare Signing-Off Catchphrase. |

Puella Magi Madoka Magica's ending is a little special: the theme in question, Kalafina's awesome "Magia," isn't revealed until episode 3 when the tone of the series got significantly darker. The song itself is also used for Moment of Awesome parts in the anime. The DVD release adds Madoka's Image Song, "Mata Ashita" (See You Tomorrow) as the ending theme for episodes 1 and 2, and Kyoko and Sayaka's Image Song, "And I'm Home" as ending for episode 9, in which Kyoko uses her soul gem in a suicide attack to kill Sayaka's witch form. Also, since episodes 10 and 12 had no opening credits, they use the OP, "Connect", as ED. Puella Magi Madoka Magica The Movie: Rebellion uses as ending the song "Kimi no Gin no Niwa" (Your Silver Garden), by, who else, Kalafina. |

One season of Ranma ½ ended its episodes with the "Lambada Ranma", which retold the series premise in humorous musical form; the full-length version included vocal cameos from all major characters. One of the Ovas ended with a song called "Red Shoe Sunday", in which Shampoo and Kasumi each musically long for the man of their dreams. | |

For a while, Bleach featured, as its ending theme, the bright pop-y, peppy song 'Happy People'.. which often starkly contrasted with the darker events of the actual episode. "If you harm Hinamori... I'll kill you myself..." "HAPPY PEOPLE!" Also of note is the third ending theme, which featured a completely different animation sequence each time it ran (for a total of thirteen!) Each sequence spotlighted the captain and lieutenant of one of the thirteen Court Guardian Squads. Yet more Soundtrack Dissonance resulted: the episode with Aizen's death (which ended with Hinamori discovering his impaled corpse and screaming his name) had Aizen and Hinamori in the spotlight. |

Star Trek: Enterprise played a particular arrangement of "Archer's Theme" over the end credits of each episode, with the exception of the pilot (which had an instrumental arrangement of the opening theme "Where My Heart Will Take Me".) Funnily enough, "Archer's Theme" was originally intended to be the opening theme, until Executive Meddling ensued. | |

The Great British Bake Off didn't have a specific ending theme to start with, using either the opening theme again, or another piece from the show's original score. Over time, a piece of incidental music known as "Organic Mix" came to be recognized as the standard ending theme and is now used on almost every episode. | |

The first ending theme of Magical Girl Lyrical Nanoha is a chirpy ditty with lyrics containing loads of Ship Tease that plays while a kiddie drawing of Nanoha dances in place. Later seasons use more melancholic songs accompanied by Nanoha looking pensively at the distance, and in the case of the second season ED, with lyrics containing loads of Ship Tease. | |

Dragon Ball, in spite of being the shonen Trope Codifier for manly elements like Supernatural Martial Arts and muscle men, has always used very romantic ending themes that would be much more likely to be represented by a shojo series. There are countless sentimental examples from every animated installment (such as ''Don't You See!'', ''Lágrima'' and ''Wings of the Heart''), but special mention goes to the first song, ''Romantic Ageru Yo'', which never changed even as the series got darker, and played after startling moments like Krillin's sudden murder or Goku's defeat at the hands of King Piccolo. | |

Sesame Street: The show originally ended with a jazzy instrumental version of the theme tune. Starting in Season 46, the Muppets sang a new original song, "Smarter, Stronger, Kinder". The Monster Clubhouse skits ended with the monsters singing the word "goodbye" over and over. The Elmo's World skits ended with people singing "the [theme of skit] song", which is just a word representing the skit sung repeatedly to the tune of Jingle Bells and ending with "That's Elmo's World!" to the tune of the Elmo's World theme. The Journey to Ernie skits ended with Big Bird and Ernie singing "We Found Ernie". |

The first ending theme for Black Butler was the oddly cheerful pop rock song "I'm Alive". Understandably, this got a little jarring with endings like Grell murdering Madame Red. It was changed to an unnerving yet fitting tune called Lachrymosa. | |

Red Dwarf always had a guitar-rock song with full vocals as its ending theme. The first two series used an over-the-top orchestral instrumental as the opening theme — later series dropped it in favor of an instrumental of the ending theme. The show occasionally replaced this with an episode-specific variation: two examples being an Elvis impersonator singing the theme, and a Hammond Organ version. |

Blue's Clues for its first five seasons has a very jazzy instrumental of its theme song, each episode having slightly different sections of it than the last.

All of the endings for the Slayers anime series and movies all share an underlying theme of not giving up and learning from yourself and past mistakes, each with their own lyrics and melodies. The opening sequences usually match the endings (upbeat and triumphant), with the exception being the mellower Slayers Try opening, "Breeze" (and given the comedic nature of the show, transitioning to it from "Breeze" leads to Mood Whiplash in some episodes). Conversely, while the openings and closings of the radio dramas are still upbeat, albeit with less intense instrumentation, many of the songs are about love and romances instead of conquering over something. When you read the lyrics translated, it becomes odd, given the fact that Slayers began with a No Hugging, No Kissing policy. |

Black Lagoon ends, in most cases, on a despair-tinged string piece that ends with a sudden outbreak of percussion. The majority of the piece stands in stark contrast to the aggressive opening and darkens the end of even the more upbeat episodes. They replace it once in the second season with the even sadder song "The World of Midnight", which also appears in-series to highlight the saddest scenes. The only time the ending isn't depressing is the heart-pumping end of the second season. | |

Lucky Star doesn't use a consistent ending theme for the anime adaptation. For the first half, the end credits simply show a static image of a door while snippets of the characters singing karaoke of songs from various other anime and TV shows can be heard from within. For the second half, this is replaced with Minoru Shiraishi in live action dancing about and doing his own karaoke. | |

There's Haruhi Suzumiya with its famous ending theme "Hare Hare Yukai". The dance has been copied worldwide and later animated in full, and a variation of the song was featured in every character album. Haruhi-chan had different endings. The first one was Nagato's singing in one episode, so when the credits showed, instead of the acual ending theme, Nagato's singing can be heard until she finishes singing. Another difference was that, at the end of a later episode, although the actual ending theme played, Achakura can be heard munching on the cake some more at the start of the credits roll. |

Steven Universe had twenty different ending themes over the course of its first three seasons, most of which were a segment of the full song, "Love Like You", or an instrumental variation of such. Seasons 4 and 5 continued the trend, using ambient noise that slowly and ominously builds up with piano, strings, and a corrupted voice calling the titular character's name before bursting into a reprise of "Love Like You". Steven Universe: Future's ending theme is "Being Human", which is likewise revealed piece by piece as the season goes on (although the credits tells you the name of it right off the bat). | |

Variation: With all but two Heisei era Kamen Rider shows lacking ending credits, what are listed as ending songs in the opening are in fact Theme Music Power Ups. Nevertheless, the two Heisei series that do have ending credits (Kuuga and Hibiki) have slow, uplifting themes on them. The 2020 (now in the Reiwa era) series Kamen Rider Saber is the first show since Hibiki to have ending credits and an ending theme, but this time it's a Dancing Theme not unlike Kamen Rider's broadcast partner Super Sentai. | |

"All Purpose Kablam!" and "Not Just for People Anymore!" had the opening theme as an ending, "Tastes Like Paper!" had the eyecatch music, and "Sasquatch-Ercise!" had more of a dancy song instead. | |

Cardcaptor Sakura has three EDs: "Groovy", "Honey", and "Fruits Candy". "Honey" is much mellower than the other two. The whiplash between the sad ending of the average season 3 episode and "Fruits Candy" is quite a sight to behold.

Paradise Kiss is a rarity, in that its ED is a popular British song, "Do You Wanna" by Franz Ferdinand. Not only that, but the ED was retained when the series was licensed for distribution in America. Anime with American or British theme songs often have to replace them for distribution outside Japan, due to difficulties in negotiating the rights. | |

Drawn to Life is composed of mainly instrumental music. The end theme is a full length song WITH VOCALS about the 2 main Raposa, Mari and Jowee, trying to deal with their separation after Jowee decides to join a band of pirates so that he can see the world. It turns out later that he never boarded the ship because he wanted to stay with Mari. It's very surprising, but even cuter. | |

Hilda gives us "Hilda's Theme", a very catchy 30 second adventure/mystery tune composed by Dan Mangan and Ryan Carlson, that plays at the end of most episodes in each season. It's a nice way to say "see ya later" to this sweet fearless blue-haired adventurer girl. | |

Seiyu's Life! has a variation. Similar to Lucky Star, the girls sing along to famous anime themes and talk about the events of the episode, which is sandwiched in-between the actual song. It's also set up as them doing their weekly radio show, complete with a Signing-Off Catchphrase. | |

Thunderbirds was all set to have a separate, lounge-esque theme with vocals for its closing credits, but it was scrapped weeks before the premiere. (However, "Flying High" - the song in question - is heard very briefly in the episode "Ricochet," and is also included on one of the soundtrack albums.) | |

Courage the Cowardly Dog's ending theme is...hilariously bizarre. The singer sounds like he's dying (and he's not even singing words, just going "Oooooaaaaaah!") and is followed by the sound of a sick sheep/cow hybrid that could be coming from a kazoo? It can't really be described in words. | |

In keeping with Araki's love of Western music, JoJo's Bizarre Adventure uses various Western songs for the TV series end themes. The first season (Phantom Blood and Battle Tendency) uses "Roundabout" by Yes. Stardust Crusaders uses "Walk Like an Egyptian" by The Bangles for the first half and "Last Train Home" by the Pat Metheny Group for the second half. Diamond is Unbreakable uses "I Want You" by Savage Garden. Golden Wind uses "Freek'n You" by Jodeci for its first ED and "Modern Crusaders" by Enigma for its second. |

Saturday Night Live has had varied opening themes but its "goodnights and credits" finale is almost always accompanied by its own bluesy composition "Waltz in A", first as a piano riff out of commercial (with audience clapping in time) and over the host's parting words. Th rest of the band joins as the credits roll and the cast and guests discuss post-show plans with mics off. The amount of the the tune (and credits) heard after the thank yous varies based on each live episode's timing from mere seconds up to a potential six minutes. | |

The Ending Theme in Love Hina is noticeably lower-key than the upbeat opening theme (except for the last episode of season one, which ends with the upbeat "Hajimari wa koko kara", a perfect bridge to season two. Of course, the story arc trajectory promised by that song came to a crashing halt with the cancellation of season two...). Love Hina Again continues this, but the theme shifts from focusing on Naru to a Gothic themed Kanako and back again, reflecting the two and their struggle over Keitaro. | |

My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic normally ends on an instrumental version of the catchy opening theme, but they've changed it up a couple of times. "Return of Harmony, Part 2" ended on a Star Wars homage, and thus transitioned into a Suspiciously Similar Song version of A New Hope's Ending Theme. "A Friend in Deed" features a character named Cranky Doodle Donkey, a play on "Yankee Doodle Dandy". Variations of "Yankee Doodle" are played throughout the episode with a piano version played over the credits. "Magical Mystery Cure" ended repeating the song "A True, True Friend" over the credits. |

Camp Camp uses different, original rap songs for each episode. The first season featured songs from multiple artists, such as Watsky. Starting in the second season, each ending theme has now been performed by local Texas rapper Richie Branson, with some of the lyrics directly referencing the episode's events or characters ("Finally, I Got to Make a Space Kid Song!" being one example). This contrasts with the lighthearted Patter Song opening theme, which emulates your standard campfire song. | |

Later in the first season, they switched to Pikachu's Jukebox, which had multiple different ending themes, one selected seemingly at random for each episode, some of the songs included "On The Road To Viridian City", "Double Trouble", and "My Best Friends". | |

The video game Portal is one of the few to feature a full vocal theme song, a parody of love songs, in which the game's AI GLaDOS talks about the events within the game before descending into the downright chilling "while you're dying I'll be still alive". Since then, GLaDOS has gotten a credits song in almost every game she appears in. Portal 2 ends with "Want You Gone", a parody of break-up songs sung when GLaDOS has let the player/Chell go into the outside world. And LEGO Dimensions gives the last word to her with the song "You Wouldn't Know", about how she absolutely doesn't miss Chell at all now she's off flying through other dimensions. Really. In a rare case of Western cross-game contamination, "Still Alive" is available to download (for free) on Rock Band. The ending theme to the flash game Super Energy Apocalypse: Recycled, which was inspired by Portal, is a wistful song that deals with a zombie attack. |

3-2-1 Contact used the same credits theme from 1983 until its cancellation, even after they rearranged the Opening Theme. The first season had two ending theme variations, one was an instrumental version of the opening theme, the other was an extended version of the trailer/promo theme. | |

Heaven's Lost Property goes over the top with different ending songs for each episode. Equally unusually, there's no Stock Footage in any of the endings, each one featuring original animation. | |

Stellvia of the Universe has two very different ones, and this isn't a matter of the theme being changed once during the season - the series switches back and forth between them repeatedly. Some episodes use "Kirei na Yozora" for their ED, while others have "The End of The World" (despite titles, the lyrics for both are entirely in Japanese). | |

Amphibia: Titled "Anne's Theme", this ending theme is heard at the end of each show. In Season 1, the song is in Bâ™ major and has a scene of Anne and Sprig relaxing. But in Season 2 of the show to reflect the journey to Newtopia, the tune became a semitone higher to C major and features additional instrumentation, while swapping the scene of Anne and Sprig relaxing outside the Plantar house at night to the Plantars and Anne riding in the fwagon under a night sky. Season 3 changed the theme song to a more J-pop variation and redid the sequence to resemble various anime outros. For the episode Hopping Mall to reflect the sad ending that has Sprig missing his mom and Anne and Sprig comforting one another, the tune is changed to a somber version played over a scene of the Newtopia skyline at night. "Olivia & Yunnan" had no ending theme song, instead having a black screen with complete silence over an ominous slow-motion scream, to reflect Marcy becoming corrupted by The Core. |

Doug had a different end theme every episode, usually the main theme of music played in the episode. Season one had the main music theme from the second part of the episode play until Porkchop put his walkman on, switching to the main music theme from the first part of the episode (or vice versa on a few occasions) until the closing logos showed up. | |

Interview with the Vampire (2022): A shortened version of Daniel Hart's "In Throes of Increasing Wonder" plays during the end credits of the first four episodes (plus episode 7 for the televised broadcast), which is one of the Love Themes for Louis de Pointe du Lac and Lestat de Lioncourt. (For some odd reason, the one for episode 2 has a different key signature — i.e. a different pitch — than the others.) It's notable that this show's 73-second closing theme is much more substantial than its 23-second opening Theme Tune because the former is connected to Season 1's Official Couple and is 50 seconds longer, whereas the latter is the sound of an orchestra tuning up (and therefore not directly linked to the main characters). | |

Sgt. Frog has had a variety of closing theme songs. Some notable examples: The first season had "Afro Gunso", some kind of disco funk anthem by the eccentric Japanese performer Dance Man. The closing montage features Keroro donning a huge afro wig and Saturday Night Fever duds, while disco dancing IN SPACE. Following a Festival Episode set during the summer, the ending switched to a Bon Odori-themed ending with the song "Pekopon Shinryaku Ondo" ("Pekopon Invasion Ondo") for a few episodes. A third ending theme featured the members of the Keroro Platoon, each singing a verse to a silly kid's song about how to draw themselves. One ending had the Keroro Platoon sing a goofy show tune about conquering the Earth, while puppet versions of the Keroro Platoon fooled around with a Cartoon Bomb. |

One of the more... interesting examples comes from the original anime of Hellsing. The closing theme was a Real Song Theme Tune, called "Shine", which was an '80s power ballad about belief in one's self. The interesting part is it was a song by American '80s hair metal band Mr. Big. Proof that This is Spinal Tap wasn't exaggerating too much about making it big in Japan. | |

Sailor Moon: Sailor Moon has one for each season. Most of them are mellower tunes, but the one for the silliest "comedy relief" season is an upbeat dance song ("Rashiku Ikimasho"). Sailor Moon Crystal has "Gekkou" (Moonbow) by Akiko Kosaka, (a composer from both the 1992 anime and musicals) and performed by J-Pop group Momoiro Clover Z. It's a sedate, wistful romantic ballad that serves to counter the OPs J-Pop / Progressive Metal anthem. |
