ITT: manga that ended too soon/were taken before their time

Rookies ended just right, as I recall. What are you talking about?

Morita is immune to being cancelled, he just decided to end it.

It didn't. After Mikoshiba hits the grand slam, the next chapter has Mikoshiba just tell you everything that happens after the game then fast forwards to them about to play in the koshien. There was at least 5-10 more chapters they could have had just based on what they had in the last chapter. The oneshot afterwards only focused on Mikoshiba too, which was a bit sad.

Either way, it ended too soon. I wish someone translated Morita's other series after this and also finished Rokudenashi Blues. The current translations aren't even halfway through the full thing.

I understood the point as being that nothing mattered after the grand slam. The manga is not about winning or losing games, or about how either of those things is accomplished: it's about the enjoyment of the sport, and that moment was the emotional zenith of the tournament for the team. There was nothing after that because they would never remember anything after that. They're kids playing a game.

I really want to translate Rokudenashi, but I'm not confident in my moonglyph skills.

It's about determination and accomplishing your dream. "Flutter into your dreams. Glitter into tomorrow" and all that. Either way, the ending was abrupt. All that drama about the baseball team being disbanded if they lost was glossed over in 2 pages

Because it didn't matter to the conclusion.

Life doesn't have 'ends' in the same way that fiction does; it's not reasonable to ask for an 'end' of something that tries to imitate life.

This is hogwash. The story ending at the emotional zenith, like you (I think?) just said, is not an imitation of life, that is an "end" - one chosen for artificial, story-related reasons.

Fuck back off to whatever hellhole you came from, you massive newfag.

If you tell a story about your life, do you end it with "oh, we had so much fun that day; it was the greatest" or "and then it got late, so I went home, had dinner and went to bed; it was the greatest"?
