I know what you mean by this statement but I can't resist saying that it was running in Shonen Ace.

Though Shonen Ace is definatly no Shonen Jump

[Guardian Enzo]

Shounen Ace is quite different from what most commonly think of as shounen... And I don't think Mirai Nikki has ever really been considered a shounen title.

I know, right?! Man... *tosses my popcorn in frustration* D:<

Seems that 2012 is the year of horrific endings in pop culture.

[brocko]

Most horrific ending of 2012 will be when the Mayan Calendar ends. Dead End for everybody. *Badumtish*

[DarkyPwnz]

I'll cry if it is just an OVA to wrap things up. I want another full season of unadulturated Yuno-ness.

Edit from the future: I just read the last chapter of the manga, please not just an OVA explaining that, but rather a full season.

Like the manga... started interesting, became a joke, and ended boring

Should? Is there a cosmic rulebook about divine ethics

You know, unlike all those other 14 year olds I know that would calmly and gracefully handle being abruptly thrust into a battle to the death against a psychotic terrorist."

Teens do even more stupid things, just search for "fail" in YouTube

So I can still hope for a hentai with Minene, Tsubaki and Rea

Actually, that was the reason Deus favored Yuki in the first episode. He even said as such. Then again, Deus isn't exactly the greatest God in the world, so his word isn't exactly much to go on.

Wtf was with that end? I'm seriously disappointed now. Looking at Wikipedia reveals what was supposed to happen in the end, but instead they decided to cut it short like that? If you're gonna run out of time, then give us a 27 episode series instead

Even more disappointing if their new project is just an OVA of Mirai Nikki that reveals what happens in the end. Because what happens in the end is not enough of a material to create episode from.

Why everyone are so stuck on manga ED? I think it really sucked...

Since anime is over, I guess spoilers are fine:

Spoiler for manga ED:

When Yuno all of a sudden knocked the 4th wall with a hammer I was like "WTF? Just how much dumber could it get?!"
If author wanted to bring the two together then do it better! Instead it looked like some random special! Besides it is 10, 000 years in the future! How the hell is she still alive?!

The most unreasonable, childish and dumb ending I have EVER seen! Even fanfics could do better!

All of you who are moaning about anime ending are most likely huge Yuno and Yuno/Yukki fanatics.

The anime ending works perfectly! The whole point of the game was to kill everyone so obviously you will end up alone. Left in solitude is a perfect ending for murderers. Yukki was the most retreaded one. Blindly following everyone and having almost no opinion of his own. Being easily fooled and then randomly killing everyone who stands in his way. He deserved what he got. In the end only one survivor could stay, Yuno does not fit here.

World 3 was not 10,000 years into the future, only world 2 was. Don't ask me how that's supposed to work.

Except that the anime hints at Yuko coming at the very end (Yuki's cell phone says "Yuno is coming" and you hear Yuno cry his name) even if it doesn't show how it's going to happen,so the anime ending isn't really a "forever alone" one.It isn't that different from the manga

[kitten320]

All the worlds are going parallel to each other so the time is supposed to be the same in each world.

World 2 and 3 were created only because Yuno time traveled back into the past by 1 year. If there is any kind of time difference then it's 1-2 years but not 10 000 years.

That ending is illogical and stupid.

It was hinted in Yuno's scene that she might remember everything too so I prefer to leave it at that with people coming up with their own versions instead of a huge hammer that we got in manga. Totally childish. Even fanfics could do better.

Whohoho hoo someone's one fire I like it

[Suzumiya Haruhi]

Spoiler:

So Second World Yuki essentially gets to deflower two Yunos after losing his, while First Yuki got to mingle with one without losing his virginity because that Yuno screwed him over.

While Third Yuki is stuck with boring ol' Wakaba.

Lols were had.

And what the hell is Third World Nishijima going to do with Third World Minene after he catches her? Threesome?

[bigdeath]

According to wikipedia:

Despite his new title and powers, Yuki is so devastated by Yuno's death that he is unable to do anything but stare at his diary's final entry--"Yuno died."--and mourn her loss. After 10,000 years of mourning in the void of his post-apocalyptic universe, Yuki is shocked when the spacetime of his universe shatters and reveals a passageway to the third universe, created through the joint efforts of the Muru Muru of the third universe, the Muru Muru of the first universe, and the Yuno of the third universe. The Yuno of the third universe recognizes Yuki, reveals that she has the same memories as the Yuno from the first universe (courtesy of the Muru Muru of the first universe), and invites Yuki into the third universe so that they can finally be together. The Deus of the third universe calls off the Diary game and makes Yuki and Yuno his heirs, and Yuki is reunited with Yuno in the new, happier universe.


If only the anime had give us this ending.....its a decent one and I'd accept it as a crazy but sweet ending to a batshit insane anime

Wow, that was actually not a bad ending at all. If that was the manga ending, I wonder why it caused so much unrest among the readers.

Yeah it would of been nice but its still kinda the same since at the end of the anime his phone changes and shows that Yuno comes to visit him in the empty world. They just didnt show the actuall scene.

[klare]

so after u beat all the other diary owners, win the game and become god, your reward is losing the person u love most and stuck with Murmur in a destroyed world? this is the first time i pity Yukkii...

this show has many issues but somehow i was able to finished it while even enjoyed it, Yuno is the biggest reason, a spectacular eps 1 also helped

That sounds much better than it actually looks in manga... so no, manga ending still sucks, don't want it.

And it is Yukki's fault for sitting in empty space for the last 10 000 years. The guy doesn't know how to move on.
