Do all anime series have more endings than openings?

[lego2iori]

I got this general question about anime. No matter how I look at anime series, they all have more endings than openings. The examples that I have on top of my head right now are: Naruto, Inuyasha, Gundam SD, Hikaru no Go, and Full Metal Alchemist. Am I wrong? If not, why does it appear like this?

Not really sure what you are completly saying but I don't think so IMO. Animes to me both have same lengths of opening and endings.

[WinterFrost]

what do you mean by endings and openings? Doesn't each anime only have 1 ending and 1 opening? Confusing post there.

Yeah, most anime do stick to one ending and one opening at a time...

maybe because endings are generally easier to make since they aren't as animating..and they want people to read the credits lol

Maybe, but don't they have to go through the trouble of askin' permission and stuff?

[edison]

Oh now I kinda get the question you're asking. Yeah it is easier since it's credits lol? permission is not hard, all they have to do is advertise for the company for whatever they used.

Yup, the main reason there's more endings than openings for an anime is due to the fact that they require much less work and they usually don't worry about how good the song is unlike OPs which they often get popular singers/seiyuus in for. I don't really get what you mean about permission requirement... the company that makes the anime is generally who decides on the OP and ED, it's not one by some third-party company and it's not like they use anything that they don't own (other than whoever sings it).

maybe they change openings with seasons but change endings because that's what they get. Getbackers is like that too.

Maybe it has to do with artists who deabut off of anime.

In my point of view, I Think that the endings are better designed than the openings In some cases are made more than one because (and this is what I think) the producers cant decide which one is the one who identifies better the anime.
