The Gainax effect
I am interested in labelling the process of making an anime out of a manga whilst completely changing the ending, character's psychological integrity, and plot-points. Has this already been done?
If not, then who here concurs with me that the act of doing such is destined to be called the "Gainax effect"? For references see Kare Kano (His and Her circumstances) manga and Anime. |

Kare Kano was faithful up to the volume of the manga that existed when the anime ended. After the Sports fest it was to be a whole arc about Tsubasa and her brother, but the anime didn't continue past that. Don't blame Gainax for that. Gainax can be blamed for a lot of stuff. (Eva for one) but Kare Kano issues were pure politics. Both FLCL and PPY ended pretty firm, so you cannot say Gainax effect. Mahoromatic's Ending was the Manga ending so you can't say that either.

Overall, it's known as a description for "shinya anime waku" (late night anime slot) shows.
If it's airing late at night around the 24~26:00 time slot (it can be on a large network, obscure UHF channel, or BS/CS satellite - doesn't matter) and is slotted for only 1 or 2 kur at most, it is likely to have an original ending. Anime based on ero/bishoujo games ends satisfactorily, however it tends to choose one character over another (usually the main heroine, but not always the case). |

I support TnAdct1's "Xebec effect." How they managed to turn WIN into FAIL with Negima was unbelievable... though Disgaea is coming close. |

How can you possibly say it's coming close? It just started.
Anyhow, what we need is a good list of shows who's anime and manga have both ended of which we can decide how many have actually had different endings. Because if one or the other hasn't ended yet, there's no saying the manga won't turn around and have the anime's ending. |

Considering the mangaka went completely awol on the manga for 2 months I can no longer say the manga is superior.

Its hard to know how to end an anime, when there is no manga ending.
The best you can do is end the anime at the end of a manga saga (determine which one before you start) and hope that there are not too many unanswered questions (parts may need to be cut). |
