Yes. Teen Titans. Things Change. Not only did Beast Boy realize his former girlfriend is gone, but also the fact that Starfire has no solo season.
You also should've ranked the TOH alot higher, especially since today a year ago it ended......
Big Picture Show Movie - Ed Edd N Eddy
- It gaves a satisfaying ending for the Eds trio getting accepted by the other cul de sac kids after 6 seasons of dirty underhanded scams.
Things Change - Teen Titans
- The whole Beastboy and Terra interaction when the former reminds about his past relantioship with the latter while being a different person.
Goodbye To Bloo - Fosters Home For Imaginary Friends
- Mac showing no signes of attention to Bloo and having a sour ending.
Goodbye And Good Ridance - Ben 10 Classic
- The fact that everybody knew about Ben's secret about the omnitrix which results in Vilgax return for revenge was kinda...pointless to say and has no explanation or reason to be explain it whatsoever.
Inside Job
Now that you're asking that, for me, yes. The My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic finale, "The Last Problem", should be there, because, not only did I know it was the end of an unforgettable era and generation, but the final song that the Mane 6 and company sing at the very end actually had me brawling my eyes out when I watched it.
Teen titans should be here. The fact that terra came back but doesn't even remember beast boy.
exactly
Then we realized the Trouble in Tokyo film was the finale
And that's nowhere close to being emotional unless you ship Robin x Starfire
I always felt like some part of her did remember but deliberately chose to “forget” bc she couldn’t forgive herself for betraying her friends, and after seeing how much damage her power caused when she was under Slade’s control, she decided a fresh start was best for herself and the Titans 😢
I think it is ambiguous if Terra remembers or not, so it might be even more emotional.
@@pamoon_ Yeah, that film felt like fanfiction.
Still disappointed that they never gave Starfire a featured season like the other Titans. I was hopeful at the announcement of Teen Titans Go, but we all know where that went.
Won't lie, Gravity Falls's finale nearly made me cry.
This should of been top 3 at least
If it had an honorable mention, I would've included: Teen Titans, Hilda, The Ghost and Molly McGee, and Codename Kids Next Door
Also, OK KO Let’s Be Heroes that was a tear jerker
totally agree with Hilda
The Scene from Futurama, Where Fry's dog is waiting outside the Pizzeria until it gets old and dies, Now that bought a tear to the Eye.
That is the only full episode I have ever watched. I know it's a comedy, but I cried so much at that episode I said "Nope, I'm done."
Though, that isn't a finale, but then there was also time being rewritten where a version of Fry was the one who actually spent time with Seymour until he was old and killed accidentally by Bender.
Phineas & Ferb was one of the best animated shows ever. It wasn't just for kids but also for us adults. I loved "The Songs", the giant floaty baby head, Gnomeageddon, and so much more. I miss it. 😢❤😢❤
"Find him... Find him... Fives... Find him! FIVES!"
-Captain Rex
"FIND HIM! FIVES!!!!"
@@multiverse_media2023 **Anakin's Dark Deeds intensifies**
I love This line
I wonder who was looking up at the sky in the final scene. Anakin or Vader.
You can just tell that Rex is using every amount of willpower in his brain fighting the chip just to warn her
I still think My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic had The Best Animated Series Finale Ever!😍❤️📺🎶🌈👍🏻
It definitely is one of the best
Worst series finale ever.
@@krystiancharos889The writers killed the show after Season 5.
I agree one of the best
@@krystiancharos889 that’s ur opinion
It's been one year since the finale of The Owl House and 1 year and 11 months of the finale of Amphibia
Thank you MsMojo
Gravity falls finale always makes me emotional 😭
Even though I didn’t watch all the space episodes of Regular Show that built up towards the finale
I still saw the final episode live, and couldn’t believe that they actually did Pops like that
Though seeing Pops at the end in the sky above saying his famous “Jolly Good Show” line made it less tragic and more wholesome for me
Spectacular Spider Man should have had one more season! Yes Spider Man saved the day but the relationships he had truly shattered!
Was supposed to have another one, but not enough viewership didn't convince them enough
@@laurendaley2503 Well I guess we need to convince them!
Star vs the forces of evil is honestly such a comfort show for me, and watching the ending gave me so many confusing feelings. I will forever love it, and it’ll be one of Disney’s best shows they ever made.
Same here 👍
@@DiegoRiser We're three, specially someone makes me love Star so much, even that person portrays the character so well, and no, isn't Eden Sher, I prefer to watch that, becuase I want just like Futurama come back with one more season to give us a better finale
Amphibia’s finale, nearly broke me
Don’t forget Clifford’s Really Big Movie, Rocko’s Modern Life: Static Cling, The Proud Family Movie, The Lizzie McGuire Movie, We Bare Bears: The Movie & Ed Edd N’ Eddy: Big Picture Show!!
Lizzie McGuire is live-action, not a cartoon.
Also, OK KO Let’s Be Heroes that was a tear jerker
Amphibia made me cry so much. Sprig and Anne’s relationship are so dynamic, cute and powerful. Saying goodbye tore me apart
Ben 10 should’ve been on the list as well. I finished a rewatch and it was an emotional roller coaster. From the realization that the whole series is a time loop, to seeing Ben with his true love, the future of the cast, the creation of the universe, and Ben going on a much needed vacation with his friends. It’s one show I’ll never forget.
Honorable mention: The Ghost and Molly McGee
Yes
Also, OK KO Let’s Be Heroes that was a tear jerker
The Owl House should've been higher for getting cancelled and we couldn't get a Wittebane Brothers origin episode. Same with Teen Titans for Beast Boy losing Terra and we'll never know where Slade is and how the Titans defeated that mysterious monster
Amen to that, my fellow Titan worshiper.
Actually…there was a comic series that continued it, and is canon. Things get better, that’s all I’ll say 😉
Yes, totally
@@multiverse_media2023 No
3:08 I’m really heartbroken the Spectator Spider-Man ended before it sadly cancelled. 😢
I know bro😢
Hopefully it gets revived like X-men '97
@@markperez9613 Which only took, what, 27 years? Spectacular Spider-Man was canceled in 2009, so 15 years gone, 12 left!
I was extremely disappointed that Futurama finale didn't stay the finale. There was only one episode in the revival that was worth it and that's the one where Kif and Amys kids reached the surface. Funny how 20 years have passed in both the Futurama episode and in real life. I wonder if that intentional from the start. And also, Zoidbergs girlfriend didn't come back because the whole point of her was to give the shows punching bag a happy ending. So sad
The Spectacular Spiderman and Justice League's endings are my favourites.
OMG. I cried my heart out for Steven Universe. He’s been through so much as a kid and now as a teenager, it all caught up to him and turned into a monster. His friends being there for him is so sweet but the ending is a gut punch between him and the Crystal Gems
I don't consider the Avatar finale heartbreaking; it felt like the culmination and resolution of the series, providing an impactful and fulfilling end.
Also, no, nothing in Legend of Korra felt earned, but that's another conversation.
Not gonna lie. I cried until i was dehydrated for a few of these
I LOVE it that you mentioned My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic at the end. That really pulled on my heartstrings.
Nine magical seasons of a unicorn that later became an alicorn with five lucky friends. Their friendship is undeniable and will never be forgotten. Creator Lauren Faust made a masterpiece from start to finish
Victory and Death's Clone Wars Finale is still, to me, the most heartbreaking and bittersweet ending ever... Rex and Ahsoka won, but what cost? I will never forget the theme "burying the dead" while Ahsoka lets go of the saber after burying every single one of the clones she once saw as trustworthy companions in any battle, only for them to backstab her... Even though those clones couldn't control themselves into refusing the order, it still damm hurts...
The end of the Republic, the birth of the Empire.
The Jedi are all dead. No hope remains. Palpatine has won.
Plus, it has that haunting flashforward with the Empire inspecting the crash, and Vader looking over the graves of the troops who had worked with his estranged Padawan.
Could you make a top 10 of the most emotional anime episodes please?
What about “The Last Problem” from My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic
Ikr. Hows that not in here?
Well, it was mentioned at the end of the video
@@christiangalvan2008 true tho it should have been part of the list
@@christiangalvan2008 I didn’t hear or see it get mentioned
No.1 In my opinion ❤❤
I was hoping that Bojack Horseman would be included, and you didn't disappoint. I cried for a while after finishing the finale, and it felt like I was saying goodbye to old friends.
"Change can be difficult, but it's how we grow. It can be the hardest thing to realize you can't hold on to something forever. Sometimes, you have to let it go. But of the things you let go, you'd be surprised what makes its way back to you."🥲💖
- Anne Boonchuy (Amphibia)
The Owl House is in 14th place? That’s harsh, MsMojo. It deserves higher. Same with Amphibia.
Avatar and Samurai Jack’s ending was well deserved. Except everyone agrees that the video game was the true ending for Samurai Jack.
It's been one year since the finale of The Owl House
Agree❤
Amphibia, Gravity falls, Clone Wars and Transformers Prime was the most touch for Me, That last should be too on this list
Amphibia should’ve been much higher. It’s the goodbye for not just the fans but the cast. Forever.
You left out "Disenchantment." In the episodes leading up to the last, many sad things happened. Dagmar killed Luci by throwing him into a lava pit, which caused Luci to die for good and Evil Bean tricks Bean into killing Mora. Jerry ended up killing God, but with help from Luci, they revived him, and as a reward, God allowed Luci to make one wish with no strings attached. Luci uses the wish to bring Mora back to life since he wanted Bean to be happy, and tearfully said that he loved her. After the final battle, Dagmar gets stuck with a fate she deserves, being forced to spend eternity in a cage that was hanging off a cliff. The elves ended up ruling Dreamland. Zog decided to leave Dreamland with Ursula and their son, Jasper, and live in the woods. Bean and Mora leave without saying goodbye to anyone, including Elfo, and Luci remains in heaven alongside Jerry. The bad guys get fates they deserve while the good guys who were alive at the end ended up living happily ever after. I thought it was a real bittersweet ending. People will probably find it hard NOT to cry at the end of the series finale.
Amphibia was my favorite saddest moments, it hurts my heart to see this series finale of amphibia,😭 it’s because it makes me cry so much, I always watch this so much! it was awesome and beautiful and I actually love this so much!😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
Oh! and also you forgot the ghost and Molly McGee finale, it was so beautiful and desperate it was so emotional and sad Ms.Mojo!😭😭
The most heartbreaking part about the Owl House finale is that we only got THREE EPISODES FOR THE FINAL SEASON 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
Justice League is still my favorite superhero cartoon of all time. But wasn't this continued Unlimited. In that case, X-Men 92, professor's death
The end of 2018's Muppet Babies where the gang puts on one more show before Nanny closes her daycare for the summer and the very end when Kermit bids the viewers goodbye but promises that he and the gang would see them again.
Some of these are actually heartwarming, not heartbreaking.
I'm surprised Rise of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles the Movie isnt on here, that movie had me bawling like a baby. Of course I'm still hoping the show gets uncancelled someday in the future, so maybe it wont really count as a series finale #SAVEROTTMNT
Also, OK KO Let’s Be Heroes that was a tear jerker
Futurama is back so I wouldn't say the series finale was the finale lol😂
Samurai Jack'a final episode was bittersweet. He finally killed Aku for good but also lost the love of his life, but instead of giving into despair, he still has hope for a better tomorrow.
Channel chasers episode from the fairly odd parents deserve to be here that was a great ending from the series
It's not the series finale, although it would certainly be on this list if it was.
Um, Gwen did NOT "choose" Harry at the end of Spectacular Spider-Man; unbeknownst to them, Harry had learned Gwen and Peter love each other, but he uses his father's ostensible death to emotionally blackmail Gwen to keep her trapped in an incompatible relationship with him.
Where Planets Are Born
💥"Sonic X" (2003-2005)
Adventure Time and Regular Show are masterpieces
The ending to Samurai Jack Deserves to be number 1. It's good that Aku has finally been defeated, but sad that the girl Jack loves fades from existence. Thankfully, there is a sign of strength and perseverance in the end.
Felt nothing from the Adventure Time finale, though that may be largely due to the show falling off the rails much earlier.
There were still some okay ideas, but to blunt, it could never recover from Finn being raped by Lumpy Space Princess... which is an insane statement to read.
the owl house should be number 1. It is the only one on this list that made me cry and still makes me cry to this day. a show canceled for no clear good reason. It died as it was truly taking flight cause of disney's prejudiced
No. 14, I really like how they ended things with this finale here and I think we're gonna miss these characters very much but at least we'll all remember and treasure the memories they made along their journey in it though 🦉🏠
Hilda's not being here is such a miss. the finale had so much plot twists with the unwound of Hilda and Johanna (especially)'s family secrets. Johanna finally reuniting with her parents after so long just to be separated from them again. and she almost died at the end! it was so heartbreaking to see her dying and Hilda being ready to break because of that! because she was so scared to see that, to see her MUM, the closest ever person to her, dying. i'm glad that Johanna stayed alive but this finale is still so emotional
They should've included The Ghost and Molly Mcgee finale. That was a tearjerker
Agreed 💯
Also, OK KO Let’s Be Heroes that too was a tear jerker
Honestly, ed, edd, eddy's big picture show should've been number one!
Kim possible, amphibia, Steve universal, gravity falls, Futurama,
Universe not Universal
Kim possible had a fantastic ending.
Gotta say, I really hate forced relationships for no reason, so we'll just have to disagree on what constitutes a "fantastic" ending.
My Little Pony Friendship is Magic should be on this list!
It certainly should
ONE YEAR ANNIVERSARY OF WATCHING AND DREAMING AND IT LANDED ON NUMBER FREAKING 14??? 😭😭😭
Arthur's true series finale
“Marco: Any Idea WHAT Happens If We Stay Here?”
Star: “No......And I Don’t Care....., ‘Cause With Or Without Magic..-”
Marco: “ - We Belong TOGETHER.” XD 😂😆😝😞😔😢 ⭐️🌙🤗
😢😢😢
I only watched 3 of these shows beginning to end
If you ever do an anime version of this, Hunter x Hunter has to be up there. One of the emotional finales ever.
Can you make a video for Top 20 Most Heartbreaking Animes? Angel Beats, Cl'Annad, Attack On Titan, Fullmetal Alchemist are some of shows with tearjerking ending.
I watched hey Arnold the jungle movie a thousand hundred times on Netflix
What about Ed,Edd n Eddy the big picture show ending
How about doing videos both on Top 20 Most Heartbreaking Cartoon Moments and Top 30 Most Unforgivable Disney Moments next?
For me "Samurai Jack: Battle Through Time" ending is canonical end
You know what I find heartbreaking about "Krei-oke Night/The Mascot Upshot" in "Big Hero 6: The Series"? How it ended with that on disappointing results but I don't think that's the kind of heartbreak this video means about here and that show deserved so much better #BigHero6TheSeries
Regular show ending made me cry, especially the final end
Final Curtain wasn’t a ended to the Spectacular Spider-Man. It was a cliffhanger.
And Justice League continued in Justice League Unlimited
Okay... you can't simply show us the MLP: FIM finale at the end and not have it included on the list!! That finale was everything for every brony and pegasister, the perfect wrap up for the best generation ever created.
It absolutely was everything to the fans including myself
I was getting worried, but then my favorite was #1 😢
You forgot the ending to Transformers Prime. Yeah, sure Optimus gets “revived” in the follow up series Robots in Disguise, but he’s not the same Prime we know and love from TF Prime, and the ending with Peter Cullen’s voice, nothing tops that.
Was that the original cartoon s2 or s3? When he comes back for a short time. I didn’t get to see the movie in theaters so when the new show came on all had change and I was lost. Prime comes back and it ends with him saying farewell. We were all sad. Just wondering?
@@Solarsystemrdffdfyyhh the orginal series ended with Prime being revived during a galatic pandenic defeats Rodiums and uses the Matrix to cure the galaxy out of respect Galavtron calls a cease fire and that series ends with the Transformers flying and driving off its on this site if you look
@@Solarsystemrdffdfyyhh Season 3 at the end of the movie. the movie was kind of a continuation of season 3. The new show had sooooo many changes it was like wait, is this supposed to be a followup or a separate series, it was very weird and they totally did Pirme dirty if Robots cause they made the badass warrior we all know and love, into basically a pussy who knew nothing. like bro, your telling me this great warrior of cybertron that has fought and been around millions of years doesn't know how to combat?
@@Rosewolf29 yeah I lived in a small town with one theater and transformers didn't come through the new season comes and I'm like what the! Tried to follow the story sort of. Galavstrwho that's Megatron what? Yeah so plus who the hell is rodimus prime? So much for a kid to handle. I should have known How the movies were going to be so damn awful. So who knows. Next girillatron prime.
@@Solarsystemrdffdfyyhh Yeah, TF Prime ended on a good note, the follow up series was confusing, but the bayverse movies, you could’ve put the last two in Japanese and I still wouldn’t understand them. At least the latest two are better and not as confusing.
Hopefully the series finale for "Miraculous: Tales of Ladybug and Cat Noir" will make up for the S5 finale that ended Gabe's arc there 🐞🐈⬛
Happy sunday night, Emily, and what an emotional top this was, really, you r almost make me cry. Take care and God bless you. Greetings from Colombia to you as well.
I love how they always end Futurama on fry and Leela's relationship, always loved them as a couple and hated the "will they, won't they" for years, glad the writers finally gave us what we wanted 😂.
Futurama as the thumbnail after it was revived for a third time last year, eh? MsMojo can bite my shiny metal ass. LOL XD😅😂
No is not there an emotional series finale we missed on TV or on Hulu or on Disney Plus or on the DVDs like The Venture Bros Radiant Is The Blood Of The Baboon Heart and Hey Arnold The Jungle Movie and Cleaved Stars vs the Forces of Evil and Bye Bye Nikki 6teen and Graduation Kim Possible and The Future Steven Universe Future and Last Day Of Summer Phineas and Ferb and A Regular Epic Final Battle Regular Show and Weirdmageddon 3 Take Back The Falls Gravity Falls and Nice While It Lasted Bojack Horseman and CI Samurai Jack
*Gravity Falls, Kim Possible, Leroy and Stitch, Adventure Time, El Tigre: The Adventures of Manny Rivera, Avatar: The Last Airbender, Hey Arnold! The Jungle Movie, Scooby-Doo!: Mystery Incorporated, Danny Phantom, Amphibia, The Owl House, Ben 10 (2005), Ben 10: Alien Force, Ultimate Alien & Omniverse, The Spectacular Spider-Man, Star vs the Forces of Evil, 6Teen, DuckTales 2017, Generator Rex, Star Wars: The Clone Wars, Star Wars Rebels, Steven Universe Future, Phineas and Ferb, Milo Murphy's Law, The Avengers: Earth's Mightiest Heroes, Avengers Assemble, Regular Show, Ultimate Spider-Man, Voltron: Legendary Defender, She-Ra and the Princesses of Power, Codename: Kids Next Door, Futurama, Justice League & JL Unlimited, The Batman (2004), Batman: The Brave and the Bold, The Legend of Korra, My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic, Trollstopia and Samurai Jack* are all THE Best Epic Final, Epic Conclusion, Series/Season Finale Animated Shows I Absolutely Love, Cherish, Respect and Appreciate throughout the years. I'll NEVER forget about these Brilliant Animation Television Series Finale Masterpieces.
Also, OK KO Let’s Be Heroes that was a tear jerker
@@jackanasaurus5905Thanks for the reminder there dude. Cross my mind on *OK K.O.! Let's Be Heroes!* Television Series from *Cartoon Network.* I'll NEVER forget about *OK K.O.! Let's Be Heroes!* TV Show
The finales that really hit me were:
🌟Hey Arnold 😭
🌟Gravity Falls 😭
🌟Star vs The Forces of Evil 😭
🌟The Owl House 😭
🌟Phineas & Ferb 😭
🌟Adventure Time 😭
🌟Regular Show 😭
🌟Futurama 😭
🌟Samurai Jack 😭
With Futurama and Phineas & Ferb, you mean EX-finale!
Young Justice broke me
4:10 is heartbreaking in the sense that it's genuinely dogshit, and this is coming from someone who loved the show too 💀
Once again the mojo people didn’t take their brain pills. In 2023, Futurama was revived AGAIN by Hulu (with the first episode taking place right after “meanwhile”) for 2 more seasons, with the 2nd one coming out later this year!
Also, no teen Titans finale? with the perfect title “everything changes”, symbolized at the beginning when they come home from Japan and see all their usual hangouts are gone, a new monster that literally adapts to its surroundings, and, yes, terra. Wow. Just wow.
😞
it's stated at the start of the video that they've included the original series finales even though some of the series already have the revival (or they're in development). that is why the Futurama and Phineas and Ferb are still there
No. 17, We actually could get a revival of the series since some old animated Marvel series are being revived now like with "X-Men '97" #SaveSpectacularSpiderMan
To me the Steven Universe finale felt rushed and could’ve ended better,
She-ra the princess of power at least should've had an honorable mention
Not even an honorable mention to She-re and the Princesses of Power? Really? This hurts a bit 🌈💕
What about David the Gnome?
Watchinh the endinh of Samurai Jack, when jack ended Aku...as soon as he did i started to think "....wait, past Aku is........AKI!!!! (she didnt disappear yet, but when she did) 😭😭😭😭😭😭"
Scooby Doo: Mystery Incorporated sshould have gotten a mention.
thanks for including All 3 of my favorite Disney channel shows.
Owl 🦉 House 🏠 has the best final fight
Amphibia has the best goodbye
And Gravity has the best Villain 🦹♀️ death.
Thank you for considering Daria!!!! You've made me very happy!!!!❤❤❤
So Beyond Happy That Hey Arnold TJM Made This List It Was My Favorite Nickelodeon Show Growing Up 🧡🧡 and still holding out hope for a season 6!!! “Move It Football Head!” 🏈
THE OWL HOUSE AT 14 IS WILD
Samurai Jack series finale was the best
Respectfully not mine.
The final episode of gravity falls is weirdmaggedon 4 somewhere in the woods
Take Back the Falls is originally a 1-hour television special, it was only later divided into 2 parts with the second naming Somewhere in the Woods. so they're right
Amphibia.
I was surprised that ATLA’s finale is placed in second placed as opposed to first. And while Samurai Jack’s finale was nice, I kinda wish it could’ve done better.
Futurama should not be on here considering it returned last summer.
