Contemplate suicide.

Masturbate.

>>144498413

Make a post about how shit the ending was, not just here either.

Look it up on tropes

Also look up other works from the same artist. To bad most of the time theyre never tled.

Which anime gave you the emptiest feeling after you finished it /a/? Gintama for me, I'd been watching it constantly for 4 months and it just disappeared.

I look on the archives to see /a/'s reaction to my favourite moments and regret not being there to watch it with them.

>>144499878
Clannad, I didn't go to lectures or anywhere else for the 2 days it took me to finish it

Check are somehow ovas or movies i somehow missed, then check if there's a manga
>>144499878
Definitely Working!
Loved the atmosphere and characters so it was pretty sad to see it end and i just kinda laid on my bed for a while after

Listen to the OST on youtube maybe? I don't really know, it depends on the series and most of the time I do whatever I feel like doing afterwards.

>>144499878
Legend of the galactic heroes . After watching 110 episodes i felt empty as fuck all the charachters that i liked died and not in the way i wanted them to die and all the charachters that i didnt care about survived . Also the final result of the wars wasnt the result i wanted

>>144500029
holy shit you just gave me the inspiration to finish jojo. thank you!

>>144499878
K-ON for sure, not any other show I've watched so far has put such an impact on me after I finished it. I felt empty and I was crying for days

Hidamari.
I watched 1-2 episodes before sleeping for months. The comfiest times.

>>144498413
If the OST was good, I download that immediately.

>>144498413

Make a thread asking to discuss the show, watch it die after 2 or 3 responses, then make a shitpost thread with the usual "What the fuck was X's problem?" or "This is your date tonight" and get the 100+ thread I felt I deserved.

Contemplate death

>>144499878
TTGL, when I watched it for the first time I pretty much marathoned it in a single night and boy was I dead when I finished the last episode.

I remember just sitting there in my room in the dark in silence for a bit, contemplating what to feel.

Check the front page for a thread. The overmind is real

>>144499878
Escaflowne made me feel VERY empty, but because it turned to shit those last couple episodes.

>>144499878
Death Note , felt empty for 3 days

>>144498413
Move on to the next immediately. If I keep getting distracted thinking about the last series/book then I know it was a good one and I will go back to it or think about the ending for a while longer. If I can move on to the next no problem, then at least I'm not wasting any further time thinking about a shit story.

>>144498413
Shitpost on /a/. Or masturbate. Or both.

Get off my chair and pace around the house for a solid 20 minutes reliving the climaxes of the show and reflecting on the central themes, maybe imagining myself in those situations presented in the show, followed by looking up related material (doujins, reviews, spin offs, ect) the rest of the day. If the show hit my feels but I haven't cried yet, then I cry.

>>144502007
Is the episode 8 the one when the punks, the suits, and the cult started fighting ?

Well.
It depends if I enjoyed it or not. If it's one of those really good ones I just sit back and say to myself "wow"
Then I fall asleep. An example would be Steins;Gate. When I finished that I was so mindblasted I kind of just laid down for a few days. I didn't do anything, not even watch anime.

Sometimes look for a thread on it or post one if I don't find one. Other times I'll go back to roleplay fucking on the other tab.

>>144498413
If it's an anime I'll rewatch any great scenes in the latest episode. If it's a manga I'll just do something else.

either Texhnolyze because it was fucking depressing, or Hyouka because I accidentally self-inserted hard as fuck and it felt like I was losing actual friends when I finished it

>>144499878

Higurashi.

At least, when it was actually over. Now it just won't end. Someone please kill it.

>>144498413

Look up related material.

>>144513901
This. I self insert way too hard then feel despressed as fuck because i realize that life in their little anime world will go on without me seeing it or experiencing it, and I'll be left out in the cold all sad and flaccid

>>144498556
Then I find out most people actually hated it and I just had shit taste.

>>144498413
First I make a turkey and swiss sandwich, no tomato because that gets a bit messy if you leave it out too long. Then I take off everything but my socks, because socks are comfy and that matters. Then I start fingering my butthole. Not much, just enough to get it started. After that comes the bottle of nasal spray, and once you work that in I'm pretty sure the rest of the story is common sense. By the time I'm done I'll really want that sandwich, and I'm usually glad that I left off the tomato so I don't have a disgusting gelatinized bottom slice of bread.

>>144498413
Get depressed, wonder what I can watch next, check it's wiki, make a thread on /a/
also masturbate sometimes.

Clannad followed by Natsume Yuujincho and My Girl.

>>144499878

Check the tvtropes page because you can almost taste the salt off the page from assblasted shippers and occasionally find out you missed shit.

>>144502346
Meh, Plastic Little was better.

>>144502346
I enjoyed Plastic Memories for actually following though on what they set up in the first episode. I teared up, it was a pretty good show.

Tie a noose, then stare at it for a bit before untying it.
Rope comes in handy for post-good-series feels.

>>144499878

Inuyasha (specifically the final act).

It's the show that got me into anime and had been a part of my life since I first came across it on late night Bionix. I'd occasionally re-watch the show and the movies over the years. When it finally actually came to a full conclusion it felt like a chapter of my life was over.

Drink a lot.
If it's winter, go for a walk.

Lie down and think for a while if losing the experience of the first time watching/reading was particularly impactful; otherwise:

Find songs/OST if it was good.

Check reviews and realize for the 100th fucking time that they're written by worthless people and that I don't care about their opinion.

Visit TVtropes to read about shit I missed - and to find other works with similar points.

>>144499878
ARIA. I had been watching it before going to sleep (one ep/day) for a few weeks. The day after I was at a loss over what to do for a little bit.

>>144499878
Berserk 1997

Legitimately one of the best adaptations of all time. I wish they could have continued to the end of the golden age arc.

I just finished Shiki and I'm trying to watch slice of life's and sports shows to cheer me up

Hit the archives and lurk through threads that I've missed. It eases the pain but live threads are so much more fun.
More times then not, however, i come across threads for a show I've finished within a day or two which is excellent.

Of course, if the story continues in a manga then I'll be reading that up next. I'm not too big on LNs just yet, but I don't doubt I'll eventually start them one day.

If it was a particularly good series then i often find myself downloading and bingeing more or the same genre.

Sora no Woto. Was sad it ended and there is no more of it.

>>144499878
Following the series, after every instance of new Madoka came out I kind of wanted to die. I don't care how much of a cash cow it becomes or how shitty. I just need more. Also it was the only franchise I've ever shared with IRL friend.

>>144500809
Usually decreeing as shit or AOTY/S (regardless of your actual opinion) works wonders. Put some entitlement and phrase it like it's /a/'s opinion as a whole. I guarantee your thread will live.

I think I'd say Most Slice of Lifes(ish) anime like
Azumanga Daoh, Nichijou, especially most of Shinichiro Watanabe's* work like Zankyou no Terror, Cowboy Bepbop, Space Dandy, Samurai Champloo.

*Hence the 'ish' since I consider most of his work to be very episodic and SOL-like

>>144499878
Medaka Box manga because I loved LITERALLY everything about it.

Sumire 16 sai after crying in the middle of the hallway at school I felt sad as fuck for a couple of days.

Alita (especially ast order) had me so invested I was thoroughly convinced I'll would never read anything like it fight wise ever again so I just stopped reading manga all together for a while.

Kino the anime (before I realized the books where translated) that sad ass ending touched my soul. After watching kino be a stoic badass for 11 episodes and have her look so defeated at the end I felt that shit
