Line 19:
* ''[[Martian Successor Nadesico]]''. The end of the series simply dropped multiple plot threads all over the genre board, from sci-fi to political to romantic, and ended with the main couple suddenly coming to terms with their undying love for each other in the last ten minutes. Ruri even [[Lampshade Hanging|lists the abandoned threads]] and then assure the viewer, "but we're not going to deal with them right now." The hanging ends, unfortunately, were ideal material for the [[Darker and Edgier]] [[The Movie|Movie]], which it abandoned for [[Spotlight-Stealing Squad|more Ruri]].
** A video game, ''Blank of Three Years'' for the [[Sega Saturn]] and other material explained what happened in the years since, but naturally [[No Export for You|none of it ever left Japan]].
* ''[[Ranma One Half|Ranma ½]]'' ended with Ranma and Akane running to school together. It is implied that Ranma and Akane will eventually get together. How they're supposed to do that, though, is something [[Rumiko Takahashi]] wasn't interested in showing (probably because, when asked, she [[Word of God|explicitly stated]] that Ranma and Akane were the [[Official Couple|only true couple]] in the series...)
** It was probably less "Wasn't interested in" as much as "couldn't possibly think of how without [[Gainax Ending|drastically changing the tone of the series]]".
