* When [[Osamu Tezuka]] died, he left his life's work ''[[Phoenix]]'' unfinished. Which is an absolute shame, as he quite clearly had great plans for it. Had he stayed alive to finish it, the separate stories of each time period in each volume would eventually converge at a central point, the "present", and tying all the loose ends of the Phoenix's story together.

* While Kentaro Miura was still alive, many fans feared that he would die before completing ''[[Berserk]]'' due to the fact that only a handful of chapters are released every year. This came to pass in 2021, and volume 42 and on would be completed based on Miura's notes, and guidance from those who knew him well.

* The director of ''[[Mobile Suit Gundam: The 08th MS Team]]'', Takeyuki Kanda, died while the OVA was still being produced. One effect of that was that it took over three years to finish it, making it the longest-running single [[Gundam]] production until [[Gundam Unicorn]], except the long running period for that has been planned from the start.
